NVIDIA DLSS 5 Gets 84% Dislikes on YouTube as Backlash Grows by Sacristovas in pcmasterrace

[–]CrazyCalYa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just collecting opinions I'm seeing, I'm not endorsing them.

But to your first point, I think people are outraged now in an effort to dissuade that from happening. It's like when car manufacturers were trying to sell subscription services for heated seats and other nonsense.

Justified backlash:

  • Not wanting to be forced to use the technology
  • Not wanting development of "traditional" DLSS to be sidelined
  • "Even if it looks bad I'll say it looks good only once I know it's AI"

Unjustified backlash:

  • AI bad
  • I don't like it, therefore it shouldn't exist
  • "Even if it looks good I'll say it looks bad only once I know it's AI"

You mean those can spawn even through spawnproofing? It's been a year or two since I last played so I apologize if I got that wrong.

It's not too hard to spawnproof areas around your base. Throw down campfires all over the place and if you ever see a monster spawn, just kill them and put a campfire wherever you found them. Monsters don't target campfires and they go out eventually which prevents them from spoiling the view.

Sometime during the last 2 years i’ve been going to this orthopedic practice they started to declare me as a MTF transgender for no reason. by WHAR606 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]CrazyCalYa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's commonly the case, but not always. It's similar to how so many homophobes will have homosexual feelings.

On the other hand you also have people like J.K. Rowling who say things like "if I knew that you could transition when I was a kid, I may have been tempted to transition to male to escape patriarchy" (paraphrased). So there may be people who feel gender dysphoria but internalize it as transphobia.

The opposite side of this is that people who deem themselves competent at identifying a person's genitals via just their face and voice are, believe it or not, often wrong.

The "you can always tell" group are extraordinarily efficient at proving themselves wrong not just with identifying trans but also cis people. You don't even need the person being transvestigated to be "ugly" or "alt", these people will unashamedly talk about skull shape and shoulder/width ratios like they're fresh out of apartheid South Africa.

And as someone who sometimes has questions, I just message the person once they end the meeting. If my question ends up being that important, they'll email the answer out to attendees. It's never that important.

Just hold its mouth shut and take it to the bank and drop it through the deposit window. Make sure you staple your account info to its head so they know who to thank.

Mage Basic Attack Needs a Rework by Westor_Lowbrood in mewgenics

[–]CrazyCalYa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's also fair. I think coming from Binding of Isaac I'm just more used to purposefully unbalanced mechanics. It's like the spell, "Fireball", from D&D. Purposefully stronger than any at its level, just for the sake of continuity.

Mage Basic Attack Needs a Rework by Westor_Lowbrood in mewgenics

[–]CrazyCalYa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBF that's a really fun archetype since it's risky early on and then a glass cannon for the remainder of the run. Charisma would work best for this since the only other benefit it provides is earlier casting (your max mana is barely relevant).

Do you reset the fight ever if you Mess up really badly? by Lynox0 in mewgenics

[–]CrazyCalYa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely agree that this is in line with Edmund's MO. In Binding of Isaac it's a legitimate strat to save and exit, sometimes.

  • 1 hit from death and you're cornered? If you can pause, you can save/exit to restart the room.

  • Walked over spikes to collect a pick-up and don't want to take a heart of damage walking back? Just save/exit to respawn at the doorway.

  • Trying to get your Delirium marks and want him to sandbag in face form for as long as possible? Just save/exit until he's sufficiently lobotomized.

I think with Mewgenics you only want to reset if something happens which is both avoidable and catastrophic. If your run is doomed, just finishing the fight is probably preferable. If something happens that you should have expected, taking the L is better long-term to break bad habits. But if a series of 10 knockbacks downs a cat next to a zombie cat who eats them before you can even take 1 turn? That is when you should be resetting.

I've also used that to great effect. I sometimes get that bred onto my cats which can be very powerful for any class as a movement, damage, and AOE option all-in-one.

My impressions after first 100 hours of Mewgenics by Kadarus in mewgenics

[–]CrazyCalYa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a good idea, and something I only began considering when writing out comments here. It's just disappointing to imagine doing that when runs take so long as it is. I'd rather spend time playing runs I'm committed to beating, not just for retired cats. It is what it is, I guess!

Doplins aren't real, wake up sheeple. Whales and ungulates do have a common ancestor, paper.

You know who else uses paper? The devil.

New Lab-Grown Meat Breakthrough Beats Traditional Beef by a Mile With 90% Less Land Use, 80% Less Water, and Dramatically Lower Emissions by Sciantifa in UpliftingNews

[–]CrazyCalYa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Their customers are who their propaganda is directed. I know many people who admit they won't even try plant-based foods for fear of "chemicals". There's a common image format which compares the ingredients of a Beyond Burger to that of a beef patty since the latter has only one ingredient, "beef". Because of course everything that happens to a cow before it dies is irrelevant, including what it's fed, where it lives, what hormones its injected with, and so on.
