This generation seems so unnecessary. People can barely just walk in and get the 30 series whenever they want. And is there really anything taxing the 30 series yet?

I wouldn’t call this “personal data”. It directly relates to your use of the device and impacts user experience. Under this definition the accelerometer in your phone is capturing personal data about how your hands are oriented.

Bingo. This is just more marketing talk. They'll probably just re-label them as 4070ti

The chips have already been manufactured, binned, and shipped to board partners and Nvidia's own manufacturing for reference cards.
So they aren't cancelling anything. Just putting an arguably more appropriate sticker on the box.

They basically named them the same so people didn’t have much prestige so they want the 4090 more. The 4080 with 12GB should’ve been the mobile version if it even existed like that. The same name thing never made sense. Glad they’re cancelling it

lmao
They will probably rebrand it to a 3070 (since it is in fact a 70 card, maybe TI) and reduce the price, since the community feedback was overwhelmingly bad.

But all three have also released new smartwatches that are more interesting than they’ve ever been, reinvigorating a category that’s been stagnant for more than half a decade. by speckz
It’s only a shit load more because it’s Australia. Sorry bud In the US the ultra is $799 which is actually really good price compared to their stainless steel counterparts and previous titanium watch they released. Edit: I also think it looks Badass

Well they're already close to releasing first prototype versions of touch in vr with the hydraulic? gloves to simulate touch. There's a few different companies that have come to similar approach. Plus there's the vr treadmills to simulate movement/touching the ground.
We already have sight, sound.
Now that smell has been thought up, how would they implement taste? I feel like we wouldn't be able to attempt this until we have full vr like sao. Honestly can't see it happening unless we get an implant. Maybe once smellvr has progressed, they can trick us into tasting with smells?
All in all, I would say taste would be the last thing I would want. I don't want someone in vr trolling me by tossing crap at me when I'm talking 🤣

Yeah, I don't feel like "reinvigorating" is accurate.

lol a friend of mine used to love pulling that shit all the time. Like he’d come in and be like “is something burning, do you smell something burning?!” And it’d be this wretched silent fart of his.

The only copy which is not digitized. It’s still a cartridge, which is distinctive from a digital rom. I think we are using the word “digitized” differently here, or we’re applying a different scope to the word.

It's data about how you're using the device. Data that, without your input, would not have been generated.
Based on that definition, it is personal data.
If I held a paintbrush in front of a rotating canvas I bought, the final product would be my intellectual property, because without my input said product wouldn't have existed. The company that made the canvas, the rotating device, or the brush are not entitled to that final product in any way.
The final product in this metaphor would be my facial expressions and eye movements.
