The new leak also reveals dimensions and display size, though there are some discrepancies with previously leaked dimensions.

NVIDIA's GeForce Now with RTX 5080 GPUs is a cloud gaming revelation

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-08 06:00:00

If you had told me five years ago that playing PC games over the cloud would soon look indistinguishable from using a powerful rig, I would have called you a fool. But after diving into NVIDIA's new RTX 5080-powered GeForce Now servers for several hours, I think we've reached a major milestone for cloud streaming. From a New Jersey server almost a thousand miles away from my Atlanta-area home, I was able to play Cyberpunk 2077 in 4K at 170 fps (with NVIDIA's DLSS 4 frame generation) and Overwatc

Some thoughts on personal Git hosting

news.ycombinator.com Terence Eden 2025-10-05 05:01:55

As part of my ongoing (and somewhat futile) efforts to ReDeCentralise, I'm looking at moving my personal projects away from GitHub. I already have accounts with GitLab and CodeBerg - but both of those sites are run by someone else. While they're lovely now, there's nothing stopping them becoming as slow or AI-infested as GitHub.

The subjective experience of coding in different programming languages

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-08 04:31:14

Different programming languages feel viscerally different, right? I can’t be the only one. It’s so embodied. When I’m deep in multiple nested parentheses in a C-like language, even Python, I feel precarious, like I’m walking a high wire or balancing things in my hands and picking my way down steep stairs. It’s a relief to close the braces. Like if I’m trying to cover all the conditions in a complicated state machine or a conditional, I’m high up. I often hold my breath. Functional languages a

Channing Tatum has had a varied career. He has played spies, superheroes, and soft-hearted men (he also dances really well). But there is one role he wished he could play, but it got away: Tatum really, really wanted to play The Beast in a non-Disney version of Beauty & the Beast. Speaking to Vanity Fair, Tatum said he had been approached about a possible film adaptation of the childhood classic by Guillermo del Toro.
