LaronVonBaron on Xbox 1 Reveal


Recommended Posts

Are people really that deaf? Did they not hear one of the many times MS said they were leaving the gaming bits for E3?

Yes, they are. Just like certain people enjoy to argue about hardware specs or (lack of?) always on or how used games will be handled without knowing all the details.

On the positive side it's revitalising the Gamers' Hangout. So.. carry on, folks. :p

Well, if you believe this guy you will believe in anyone. This is called letting your brains fall out.

1) Apparently Microsoft is the only company in the world that wants to make money

2) Apparently this guy has never heard of E3 where it's about games. sssssh don't tell him that games are the reason people buy consoles not TV.

3) This guy is paranoid about people watching him and yet he is on YouTube using a web cam. LOL

4) A console is a device already hooked up to your TV, why not evolve it to include TV and Internet video as well. It's a natural evolution.

5) Apparently this guy has never used Amazon, because they recommend to you things that you looked at or genres you might be interested in. It's called good marketing.

6) Twitter and Facebook is available built in from many devices out there so you can be spied on.

7) Call of Duty isn't on PS3 or PS4 if we really believe this guy.

8) He thinks Google is better. Wants them to spy on you instead of Microsoft.

9) Sony doesn't have a spy device (i.e. Web Camera) in the box for PS4 (LOL) but Microsoft does.

10) Nobody uses credit cards online either except Microsoft

11) Nobody knows Steve Ballmer's name anymore. I guess he shouldn't have name dropped his name then.

12) Apparently he failed to watch Microsoft's show because it did show a new IP from Remedy (whoops)

13) Stealing from 11 year old kids.

14) Calls the PS4 an Xbox JR (I guess he didn't see their show either).

15) Targeted ads don't exist anywhere else. Apparently he doesn't surf the Internet either. duh welcome to 2013.

This isn't the Atari 2600 anymore, you don't just stick a cartridge in and play.

Rather than focus on the obvious negatives of the new console he went completely off the rails and started talking like a conspiracy theorist :/

Also he is censoring the audience by turning off ratings and only approving comments he agrees with.

Yep and one of those exclusives to be revealed at E3 is ....... Kinect Fitness. Teh games!!!!

He might have some valid points about intrusive advertising and sequel after sequel of the same franchise, but the way he speaks and acts make him sound like a tinfoil conspiracy theorist who believes Balmer is trying to conquer the world by getting into his head

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
    • AT&T has been spying on US citizens with the NSA for decades.. they just know how to keep it more under wraps.. the evil level is still there.
