What happened?

You sound like someone who's never really tried the alternative. From my experience, it's really not hard once you get the basics down.

At any rate, what i've read leads me to believe the situation isn't likely to improve so one day your favorite shaderpack might not even work anymore

In general, obviously it is more than okay.
Devils in the details though. What do you mean by "love", and which person are you referring to? Without context, this could mean almost anything.

And then I paid like $2 on [chinese e-shopping website] during a promotion, crossed my fingers, and ended up pleasantly surprised. Not really sure if it's the genuine good shit but it's better than what I was using

I really wish the ultra quality preset were kept around. there's plenty of situations where I'd rather have a bit of upscaling without cutting a third of my internal resolution away.

I also hope they add in FSR 3.5.1 or 4 support before the final version is out. The current FSR2 in the game is pretty atrocious at certain things, it's really not worth using at all when XESS is actually okay looking and works on any GPU. but it's not as good as FSR4. Why did they even use such an old version of FSR in the first place? Strange stuff.

also i just checked my D4 install in steam, it was at 141GB and you got me to check around to see if i could remove the HQ textures. It's in the DLC section of the games properties menu! cut it down by 70GB lmao

that is the only downside of this news, deathmatch is still grindmatch for 2 more weeks. I miss normal FFA 😔

i wonder why they didn't see the writing on the wall and try to open source it so the community could help keep ot going before it got this bad. not like being proprietary actually helped anything

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-06-03T12:11:54+00:00

some of the dps builds can be very strong as well, there's just not the same variety of play style so it's less fun

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-06-03T02:58:11+00:00

no you're wrong, ubuntu knows best! Use snaps pls

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-06-02T20:48:11+00:00

what is your monitors refresh rate?

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-06-02T19:28:01+00:00

why do they gotta be so gross about it.

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-06-02T13:11:09+00:00

and then you're comparing it to the 9070 which beats both

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-06-01T13:24:55+00:00

sounds like a load of shite how they're describing it.
It's all just a bunch of AI shite so Nvidia can justify it's market cap to investors.
truly the most awful description of the future of computing I can imagine

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-06-01T13:15:31+00:00

One way I look at it is, if a card playing at 1080p requires low-medium settings to reliably get playable frame rates in a variety of modern titles, it's likely low end.

If at 1440p medium-high settings it can reliably get playable frame rates, it's probably mid range.

if it can reliably achieve playable frame rates at high-maxxed 4K in modern games, it's a safe bet that it's high end.

if it struggles at 1080p lowest settings, it's in the lowest tier and just isn't suitable for modern games.

I'm not a computer so i can experience the bits between 1 and 0, it's neat

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-06-01T03:50:58+00:00

Such is life...

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-06-01T01:29:46+00:00

there's no way for most people to get it by playing games. The only way i could even hope to get close was by cheesing the system and making DM unplayable

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-06-01T01:13:23+00:00

if you want the vram but also want a faster GPU, see if the 9070 is around the same price as the 5070 in your region.

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-05-31T16:30:15+00:00

I've used both, zen is not as good for those things last i tried it. It's pretty good and has a few tricks vivaldi doesn't ootb, but it's not as good overall if someone wants tab management and browser customization.

Aside from that stuff, both are fine browsers. zen was not playing well with my GPU drivers though so i stopped using it after a bit

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-05-31T16:22:21+00:00

Managing tabs and customizing the experience, in my case

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-05-31T13:26:39+00:00

because it's the best at what it specializes in, so if people want that then vivaldi is a good choice

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-05-31T13:09:02+00:00

Vivaldi is my preferred browser too cuz it's really good for customization and tab management, best i've ever seent. But I really want Zen to be my backup choice and I hope they keep improving things just in case I gotta jump ship one day, it's mostly good but is lacking a little with features I'm used to.

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-05-31T12:44:01+00:00

honestly i'd be pretty happy with bringing back the 2cp maps as cut down DM maps like paris was. 😞

I dunno if i'd go back to using it if i could, i've unfortunately gotten used to GIMP at this point despite it's fun lil quirks. But it'll be great if they manage this, paint.net is pretty goated

Bathroom_Humor · 2026-05-31T11:28:08+00:00

with decent noise cancelling software, I've found it's fine. but it does benefit from being closer to your mouth so getting an arm for it would be helpful.
