I couldn't use Heliboard because of the forced toolbar of all things. FlorisBoard lets me open and close the toolbar by holding the spacebar and because I don't need word suggestions and stuff I swapped back to FlorisBoard. Heliboard seemed great, but I just couldn't get it how I wanted it, so I am extra glad this update has finally arrived!

GPS/GLONASS/Galileo are at ~20,000km vs starlinks ~500km, all the LEO satellites would be fucked but global positioning would be fine. Sounds good to me.

If we had the money, there's no legal repercussions to going up there and deorbiting the satellites right? Maybe install a defense platform to shoot down any more from spacex, oneweb or whoever else tries putting them up.

Doesn't seem to exist at all in EU. Disgusting either way.

A fantastic shot!

Yep. As more people buy GPUs that have the capabilities to use machine learning upscaling (the bandaid) then the more likely developers are to use it instead of spending time improving performance.

I see it the most in Unreal Engine games, Unreal Engine allows devs to make a "realistic" style game fast, but performance is often left in the dirt. UE also has some of the worst anti-aliasing out of the box, so DLSS for example, is a good catch all to try and improve framerates and provide some AA, but instead you just get a lot of blur and poor graphical fidelity. The issues probably don't exist at higher resolutions, like 4K (which is maybe what they develop with), but the majority of people still use 1080p.

Oops sorry for the rant! I just got pissed off with it again recently in Satisfactory!

Pros, more fps on low end hardware.
Cons, worse image, ghosting, blur, artifacting, lower overall performance because devs rely on upscaling.

It's existence is a crutch. Games should be made properly and not rely on ML upscaling for meaningful performance.

Hardware is insanely powerful at the moment, the problem is time isnt spent making the most out of it anymore, which then increases demand for more powerful hardware (that we dont need). The sales loop for Nvidia, except now they want to sell you ML optimised cards, which cost more.

Fuck off Nvidia.

Man, I was like why are 12 year olds voting?

Honestly, he probably had no idea who he was, got told some prolific person (who?) was endorsing him by his campaign managers and just went with female pronouns from the name 'Nicky' and called them hot to hype them up in some fucked up way?

Because he doesn't give a shit about anyone, he isn't going to put a second to learn about them.
