Did Piastri fuck Zak's wife or why do they hate him so much?

DLSS and XeSS (XMX) are AI and they're noticably better than non-hardware accelerated alternatives.

The pattern I notice in fundamentalism is that you start with the assumption that your beliefs are "religiously true", then you interpret your scripture in a way that supports those beliefs. Whether the scripture is historically accurate seems to be incidental.

In an interview he pretty much said that his intention was to stay ahead of the pack at all cost to protect Nico https://piped.video/ivslsT3TjK8

It's just way too close to "Iron Lady", makes me think of Thatcher every time I see it.

(I did not consent to thinking about Thatcher, please make it stop)

Honda will be disappointed with results and pull out of F1 when engine regs change again after 2030, then Aston will win a few championships. Honda Effect™.

Apple before implementing sideloading:

"We can't let users install unverified apps. Sideloading will make our devices less secure. "

Apple after they're forced to implement sideloading:

"We give users the freedom to install apps from outside the store. The iPhone is as secure as ever. "

probably the coldest take someone can make about recent tech that I’ve seen, and it’s being presented as a hot take

That's exactly what the "we have you surrounded" meme template conveys (at least according to my understanding): a popular opinion, but ironically presented as a fringe opinion.

So no, this isn't really intended this as a "hot take", there seems to be a decent amount of people who dislike TAA for example. I'm pointing out a trend in the industry, that devs are using temporal or upscaling tools to make the game run/look better, and GPU vendors support those tools to squeeze out the most fps from their cards. At this point TAA is the standard AA method and is integral to how some games are rendered, and upscaling is advertised as basically free* performance. Unfortunately, by its nature, all this temporal tech doesn't work too well at low framerates and resolutions, a scenario where it would be very useful.

I would agree that most artifacts and the softening effects of upscaling will be less visible on higher density screens, or when you're sitting further away from a screen. Unless your TAA/upscaling implementation is absolutely botched, in which case it will always looks garbage, but that's not really the fault of a specific technology.

I'm not sure if Fediverse even has an official logo but this one looks neat.

Below is the logo of the Fediverse, which resembles a rainbow pentagram.

Finished the game yesterday and have some thoughts on how the ending is handled.

Personally I'd have liked something deeper than the 'and they lived happily ever after' I got in my playthrough. In Divinity: Original Sin 2 you get a recap of how your decisions influenced certain places and characters, but BG3's epilogue is almost non-existent, other than your party acknowledging that they did in fact complete the main quest.

I'm not saying the ending is bad or that I didn't enjoy it - quite the opposite. But then credits rolled and my first thought was 'wait, what about everything else I just did, am I not getting to see any of it?' My issue isn't with the story that is told, but rather the part that is omitted.

Now, I must also mention that

Slight ending spoilers herebefore the final fight you meet up with allies you gathered throughout the campaign. Who shows up and aids you depends on your choices, so in a way this serves as a summary of your adventure.


Other thoughts

Big ending spoilers hereOn an unrelated note: this whole ending sequence gives off massive ~heh~ Mass Effect 3 vibes, even down to the control vs destroy choice. Looking forward to Larian adding a synthesis option so we can all become illithid hybrids.

On another unrelated note: I let Karlach become a mind flayer so she could dominate the brain, and it was strikingly obvious that NPCs had no voiced lines for this possibility. The narrator did acknowledge her, but everyone else talked as if my PC were illithid, not Karlach. I know you can't make a voiceline for every possible choice, but in that moment it was really jarring.

Edit: formatting
