I’ll check out Dreame, I have not heard much about them.
Roborock, Dreame and Xiaomi are functionally almost identical. Some of them even share the same parts.
If you want to root them, get a Dreame or a Xiaomi. Most of them are rootable without disassembly, see the list linked above.
I rooted both of my Roborock S6.
If you can solder and have an UART USB cable, it’s not really hard to do. Technically you can flash it by just holding your UART adapter against the solder pads but soldering them on definitely makes it easier.
There’s a full video guide on how to dissassemble and root here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9PoaNtZCJRZc61c792VCr_I6jQK_IdSb
Firmware and everything else is here: https://builder.dontvacuum.me/_s6.html
Also, if you don’t have a Roborock yet, the Dreame models are significantly easier to root. Don’t even have to disassemble most of them.
Doesn’t apply to iRobot but there are lots of robot vacuums that can be flashed with an open firmware with just a USB UART cable: https://valetudo.cloud/pages/general/supported-robots.html
As for the other devices, my 3D printer, projector and AV receiver are all locally controlled.
I played quite a bit of Elite: Dangerous in VR on my Saitek X-55 in Linux. Worked out of the box.
I disagree, LLMs have been very helpful for me and I do not see how an open source AI model trained with open source datasets is detrimental to society.
I’ll bite, what is malicious about this?
It’s a credit or debit card where you can change the number at any time. Prevents shady online shops from loosing your credit card details. Revolut and N26 offer it for example.
Of course, the shop still has to accept credit/debit cards or you have to go though PayPal as guest.
You are telling me you are paying via PayPal without involving the banking industry?
I have the choice to either tell PayPal and my bank what I’m buying or just my bank. I chose the latter.
I once got banned for “vote brigading” on Reddit because I upvoted a crosspost that was deleted later, so this comes as no surprise. They have been monitoring upvotes and downvotes since forever.
Do you need one?
I recently deleted my PayPal account and use a virtual credit card instead.
So far no issues with paying. In the rare case that credit card is not available you can always pay without account in PayPal via credit card.

With SteamDB estimating 2.6 - 3.27 million players on Steam it actually looks like PC is at least the second largest if not the largest platform.
I have to question some folks ability to see when they say Wilds looks worse than World or like a PS3 game.
Certainly has some low-res textures that look weirdly out of place but it’s not like the entire game looks like this.
I assume somebody really liked that game.
Just like the Lego Island guy™ really likes Lego Island. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MToTEqoVv3I
And DLSS also makes the game look like a shit sandwich even on quality.
Correct, I’m on a 7900 XTX and was able to get the best experience on Ultra by using FSR only for anti aliasing (native resolution) and turning on FSR frame generation. There are still artifacts but they are not nearly as bad as with upscaling.
Without frame gen I hover at around 60, good enough for controller but a pain with mouse.
Still, your 3060 is most likely going to output a clearer image than what your PS5 can do with FSR1. Did you give the benchmark on PC a go?
What’s your hardware?
On high end hardware the game runs fine, not good but okish. On console they use FSR1 at a really low resolution, making everything look really blurry. On PC at least FSR3 is available for lower end hardware but don’t expect too much if you don’t have a Nvidia 4000+ or AMD 6000+ series card.
Digital Foundry has performance videos for console and PC up already.
One day we will get a spiritual successor.
I really enjoyed it. First game in a while that could scratch that Prey-itch.
AMD: Yes (Played the last beta for a few hours, make sure to use Proton Experimental)
Nvidia: I believe the graphical issues are not fixed yet
Steam Deck: Game does not run well
Because humans learn how to read and interpret those pages in school. Give that book to a toddler and not much will happen other than some bite marks.
AI needs to learn the language structure, grammar, math, logic, reasoning, problem solving and much more before it can even be trained with anything useful. Humans take years to acquire those skills, AI takes more content but can do that training much faster.
Maybe it is the wrong way to train machines but for now we have not invented robot schools yet so it’s the best we got.
By the way, I still think companies should be banned from training with copyrighted content and user data behind closed doors. Keep your models in public domain or get out.
