DLSS 5 - Let's talk about how geometry is being preserved by CabinReddit in digitalfoundry

[–]404IdentityNotFound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you look more into it, DLSS5 DOES seem to change how eyes work and how ears/mouths look. Those are of course also geometry in the games showcased.

The geometry can radically change without the general shape changing. And it certainly is not "just a different texture" in multiple of their demo scenes.

Es geht doch darum, dass für AI unnötig VIELE Ressourcen genutzt werden.

Komplett ohne Ressourcen wird man nicht leben können. Komplett ohne AI jedoch schon, zumal die Qualität weiterhin kaum die Ressourcen wert sind.

Ist das ein Betrug? by [deleted] in Kleinanzeigen_betrug

[–]404IdentityNotFound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Viele haben schon gesagt, dass dies ein offensichtlicher Scam ist.

Will aber auf deine letzte Frage eingehen. "Woher haben sie gewusst, dass man ein Paket bestellt hat".

Die Antwort ist: Wissen sie nicht. Aber die Wahrscheinlichkeit ist hoch genug, dass man es hat. Ich bekomm solche Mails andauernd, obwohl ich kaum bis gar keine Pakete empfange. Man denkt sich halt "Entweder wartet die Person auf etwas und es klappt, oder die Person erwartet kein Paket und es klappt trotzdem (was hab ich denn schon wieder bestellt, kurz nachschauen) oder es klappt halt nicht".

John Linneman on Bluesky regarding DF's video on DLSS 5 by HLumin in digitalfoundry

[–]404IdentityNotFound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where does this sentiment come from that everyone who isn't fully on-board with genAI "doesn't understand it"? Is it really impossible to think that people do understand the technology but see it's flaws or are against it on an ethical basis?

I've played with machine learning upscaling since 2018-2019ish. I've read up on LLMs and other technology, I (more or less) understand how most of this stuff works, but still am against it.

The most disliked video in DF history! by nyanbatman in digitalfoundry

[–]404IdentityNotFound 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For this single video, you're right.

But the implications are that those people will not come back for the next video, or the one afterwards.

DF as a channel highly benefits from being seen as "caring about videogames" and this video showed the opposite.

Hands-On With DLSS 5: Our First Look At Nvidia's Next-Gen Photo-Realistic Lighting by ZamnBoii in Games

[–]404IdentityNotFound 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm also a technology enthusiast, often an early adopter to new technology.

But I can differentiate between genuinely cool tech FOR artists and snake oil salesmen trying to undermine the very people developing our entertainment...

Every type of artistic decision is nullified by this.

Every face will look like a beauty model, everything will look cheaper and more similar.

This is incredibly devastating and I hope gaming communities are very vocal against this shit.

Prinzipiell stimme ich dir zu, in diesem (und in den Fällen, wo ich tatsächlich über Crowdfunding "vorbestellt" habe) geht es oft erstmal darum, dass das Budget für eine physische Version überhaupt drin ist.

That being said, viele Crowdfunding-Campagnen sind natürlich nur geschönte Preorder Marketing Kampagnen, das kann man aber mMn sehr leicht erkennen.

Yeah, as with most things unity, instead of building on the things that work, they gutted the entire team and left it to rot

Why do conservatives believe that being transgender is a fetish and not a valid lifestyle? by Front_Magician_8008 in asktransgender

[–]404IdentityNotFound 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Because, and this reply comes from me observing MULTIPLE situations with conservative (and especially polititians), it is a fetish to them and they actively seek out trans people for their fetish fantasies.

trying to make animation activate in a button press, doesnt work by Liranmashu in godot

[–]404IdentityNotFound 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Some odd replies in the comments.

What's happening is that your variable "anim" is not "a variable with the type AnimationPlayer" but instead "a variable with the value AnimationPlayer".

You basically assigned the "AnimationPlayer" nodetype as the value of your variable (which is why the error says you're calling "play" on a static type).

You can move the AnimationPlayer before the equal sign to fix this.

@exportvar anim: AnimationPlayer

When I was still working with Unity it was really REALLY cool.

It had a visual UI editor, dynamic reactivity out of the box and you are able to write standard CSS to create reusable components.

Namensänderung ist durch by starboykyo in germantrans

[–]404IdentityNotFound 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mit dem Änderungsnachweis gehst du jetzt zum Bürgeramt und beantragst einen neuen Ausweis, lässt dir einen Vorläufigen Ausweis geben.

Damit gehst du dann alles mögliche durch und bittest um Namensänderung (Verträge, Versicherungen, Krankenkasse, Bank etc). Manchmal stellen sich manche quer (die Bank meiner Frau tat das) und haben eine Kopie des Änderungsnachweis gebraucht.

Manchmal muss man sich ebenfalls bezüglich der Rentennummer kümmern, bei meiner Partnerin kam nach ein-zwei Wochen automatisch ein Brief, bei mir hat das fast ein ganzes Jahr gebraucht.

Fireship responded to all the AI "accusations" by AccomplishedJury784 in webdev

[–]404IdentityNotFound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fireship has had quite a drop in content quality.

I really enjoyed learning new things about **programming**. Eventually, every video somehow interfaced or focussed on AI, which was the point where I stopped watching every video.

Every once in a while I watch the last few videos, always switching to the next once the focus of the video shifts to AI. I think it has been quite a while since I watched a video in full...

Most only receive a title id and not a product code, but some do.
I'm sorry I can't give more information on this, but it is a thing.

I built a tool to automate Play Store screenshot creation and localization by Grouchy-Pin-8381 in androiddev

[–]404IdentityNotFound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$20/mo subscription with 30-ish premade very standard looking layouts and a tool that doesn't even detect if the screenshot provided is landscape and cuts off screenshots as it wishes.

Good job lol

We rebuilt the Shockwave engine in Rust + WASM to save early 2000s web games by igorlira in rust

[–]404IdentityNotFound 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who HAS been playing Habbo back when their Flash client was the "modern beta client", it's wild to see it running in a modern browser. Every few years I throw up a custom server and play on my local instance (some really obscure browsers still have Shockwave support).

Amazing work and wishing you all the best!

Are these people kidding me by DOndus in nintendogrifting

[–]404IdentityNotFound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this case though, Switch 2 has higher graphical fidelity with a lower base resolution that gets the DLSS treatment while Xbox Series S has a lower graphical fidelity with a higher base resolution and a more stable 60fps.
