I don’t really care how a frame is generated if it looks good enough (and doesn’t come with other notable downsides like latency). This almost feels like complaining about screen space reflections being “fake” reflections. Like yeah, it’s fake, but if the average player experience is consistently better with it than without it then what does it matter?

But it does come with increased latency. It also disrupts the artistic vision of games. With MFG you’re seeing more fake frames than real frames. It’s deceptive and like snake oil in that Nvidia isn’t distinguishing between fake frames and real frames. I forget what the exact comparison is, but when they say “The RTX 5040 has the same performance as the RTX 4090” but that’s with 3 fake frames for every real frame, that’s incredibly deceptive.

I think that’s explicitly forbidden by the EU, and it’s a German domain.

Children will only have access to the illegal porn sites that don’t “protect children”.

It’s called efficiency, look it up.

I wonder how many civilians Israel killed in the process. It’s probably a lot more than 0.

There are like 60 highly-specific cat subreddits but only 2 general ones on Lemmy.

I mean, SpaceX is a private company owned by Musk…

I wonder if hydrogen fuels poses any unique risks as compared to petrol.

It’s highly explosive.

Unfortunately they know how to tame a horse in Minecraft :/

I mean, Trump just illegally deployed the national guard and the marines in California. He needed the state’s permission (which he didn’t get) to deploy the guard and deploying the marines is on a whole other level of illegal.

Probably not if you factor in the inefficiency of human digestion and wages.

There’s lots of ways to make existing hardware more efficient at the cost of performance. Under-volting the CPU and RAM (or just putting them in “efficiency” mode) can probably save more electricity than you lose in generational improvements. Considering how much more powerful PCs are compared to SBCs, you’d probably still have better performance than an SBC. Also, a more powerful CPU that takes double the power but as a result can idle for more than 50% of the time would be more efficient than a less powerful CPU never idling.

There’s a lot of other variables (like idle power draw, efficiency at various power levels, idle latency, etc), but in general I think your statement would be inaccurate at least 60% of the time.

all these tickets I’ve been writing have been going into a paper shredder

Try submitting tickets online. Physical mail is slower and more expensive.

It’s a solvable problem with larger context buffers, but the resource requirements grow exponentially.

AI-based romantic companions, sexting, and phone-sex are going to be huge if they aren’t already. It’s like “Her”, because we live in a Black Mirror episode.

It has the same energy as upper management firing their IT staff because “our systems are running fine, why do we need to keep paying them?”

If I can’t kill the child process, I kill its parent and go on with my life.
