  • It would allow them to do HDMI FRL also, which is probably what you mean when you say HDMI 2.1. AMD cards also do HDMI FRL I thought. FRL is what allows things like 4k120Hz (higher bandwidth modes). The VRR that the Dock does is the VRR standardized with 2.1, which is why it works on TVs and devices that do not support freesync (see: LG TVs).

    Anyway, the Dock doesn't have a fast enough HDMI converter to do that. It's not a licensing issue. Next gen Deck/Dock will probably do it.

  • Actually it works fine on Steam Deck. It uses VRR over DP to the dock, which then translates it to HDMI with VRR. The dock has proprietary firmware to do this.

    Intel and Nvidia hardware with open source kernel drivers also do a similar trick where the HDMI part is in a firmware blob. Only AMD does not work with HDMI VRR.

  • It's not so much the development time that bothers me here, it's the lack of diversity. They took forever making GTAV after IV, but in the meantime they had a bunch of smaller, lower budget releases. Nowadays big publishers go all in, a game is either a $200m blockbuster or it never makes it to production.

  • Clearly you meant:

     
        
    string = "foobar"
    length = 0
    _ = [length += 1 for _ in string]
    print(length)
    
    
      

    Much more readable!

    Edit: Damn, doesn't work, was hoping to make something cursed but you can't make an assignment during comprehension. Oh well, maybe Python 3.14!

  • The problem isn't function or safety, it's cost. It isn't cost effective to build or renovate a nuclear plant compared to wind or solar. If you have one in good condition, it makes sense to let it run its lifetime, but it makes little sense to build new.

  • But the energy usage is quoted as peak for the entire venue - which is literally a theater / concert hall. It opened with a live U2 performance. The energy usage isn't just for the displays, it includes all the power for the entire building, the concert speakers, heating/cooling, indoor lighting, any kitchen equipment, etc.
