Be careful (don`t show kids, have it to loud at work, etc) there`s some fruity language in there :shifty:

 

The guy is an embarrassment to America. The original video I tried to post had no voice overs or crap music, but its gone private. Also the OS looks to be debug above, hopefully we'll get an official blog video next week as Shuhei Yoshida hinted at.

Well the poor commenter aside, its nice to see a more complete demo of the UI.

 

I'm hoping to see something more professional from Sony itself soon like we got from MS. 

 

As Audioboxer pointed out, this is a longer cut of a video we already saw and it does seem to be a beta version, something for testing.  They are clearly having a few hiccups while using it, so maybe Sony was holding off on an official reveal until a closer to final build was ready.

 

I still want to see how it looks when you first boot up for instance. I have a hard time believing that the screen that is first shown is the home screen, but it could be since it is sort of in keeping with the whole xmb design from the ps3. Overall, my impressions from the first leak stand.  It looks fine, again its clearly an attempt to evolve the xmb from the ps3 and not start from scratch.  I happen to enjoy a ui designed to be used via a tv to have more visual flair/visual cues then what I'm seeing here, but its not a big deal to me in the long run.  The UI seems to preform well which is a big deal to me, and it seems to offer you access to all the features you would need, so that's good enough.

 

The virtual keyboard seems to be improved a bit, which is nice since I really had no love for the one on the ps3.

 

That video does not show off any multitasking, so I'm wondering what Sony's plan for that is.  Surely they have some equivalent to what MS is doing with its snap feature, but they didn't demo that.  They also didn't really show off what controls you could access while your in a game without leaving that game.

    • Fastfetch 2.64 released bringing new logos and other improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Fastfetch 2.64 released bringing new logos and other improvements by David Uzondu Fastfetch, the popular command-line system information tool that developers created as a fast alternative to the classic Neofetch utility, has updated its codebase to version 2.64, bringing experimental scripting power, streamlined compilation options, a smarter logo renderer, and Codec module support. As noted earlier, Fastfetch can now detect hardware-accelerated video codecs across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android through this new Codec module. On Linux and BSD, the utility uses VA-API by default, with a fallback to VDPAU on Nvidia hardware if compiled with libva and libvdpau. Windows users get D3D12VA on Windows 11 or D3D11VA with Media Foundation Transforms on older systems, while macOS relies on VideoToolbox and Android utilizes AMediaCodec. You can manually toggle Vulkan Video via the config file, and the program will report both encoders and decoders unless configured otherwise. Logo support for Quasar, Origami, Origami_small, NixOS2, and BerserkArch also landed in this release. BerserkArch, if you have never heard of it, is a specialized Arch Linux derivative that targets security researchers and power users. This distro comes with an offensive security tool manager, simply called berserk, which allows users to install complex hacking toolkits with single terminal commands. Moving on, Fastfetch now has experimental scripting options for custom formats using Lua or QuickJS. The Lua integration supports versions 5.3 through 5.5, sharing a single interpreter instance across all modules so you can store variables globally. T Alternatively, if you prefer JavaScript, you can use QuickJS-ng version 0.15.0 or newer to evaluate your custom formats with the qjs: prefix. Other changes that version 2.64 brings include native CMake compilation flags to disable specific modules to shrink the final binary size. Users can delete unwanted ASCII logo files directly from the source directory before building to save additional space. The format engine now boasts ANSI-escape awareness, meaning you can center text with the new vertical bar specifier without breaking colored outputs. Haiku users receive preliminary support for boot manager, window manager theme, screen brightness, and other basic properties. Finally, the Linux edition now extracts desktop wallpaper and theme details from the modern COSMIC desktop environment.

      That's a good number until the game you want to play is not in that list.

      For sure, humanity us highly unlikely to survive the helium flash. Even if we have colonized moons in the outer planets by then, that is such a monumental change in heat output, coupled with the destruction of Earth, it's unlikely we could be fully prepared for changes of that scale.
