Why aren't we moving towards cleaner and potentially limitless energy technologies like nuclear fusion or the proven clean energy of nuclear fission in power plants? Instead of building more nuclear power plants, we're closing old ones and continuing to burn coal and gas.

What do you think of AI

Do you think it really will become a danger to us? Or do you think AI will simply be a tool for us to use?

As one lady put it in an article, "I don't want AI making paintings and coming up with new tech, I want to do that whilst AI does my dishes and laundry, giving me free time to pursue my goals"

What is your opinion on AI tech?

My question is, do you think will ever represented with a consult that performs backward capability properly?

So I mean in the sense of a PlayStation 6 or a PlayStation 7 being able to play PlayStation 3 or PlayStation 2 games based off the discs that’s inserted in.

I feel like when it came to the PS5 I personally felt like I was fed a lot of misleading claims, so I genuinely thought you would be able to insert a PS3 game in there and it would play properly. And obviously that’s not the case and when it comes to playing discs that you can play both on the PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation 5 you need to make sure that you get the very specific thick version that works on both.

The workaround that I’ve got at the moment, which I’m very lucky to have, is playing games on my steam deck where it gives me the ability to play PlayStation 3 that haven’t yet had the opportunity to be remastered for various reasons such as licensing et cetera.

I’ve recently bought a capture card to make video game play throughs and I’m just wondering if anyone has tips and tricks on how best to use them to record. How do you start doing this? How do they work and the best way to go about it? What can go wrong? What to avoid?
