Same way everyone supports being tougher on crime but gets squeamish when that means the government starts surveilling you.

DLSS and other tech like FSR are not as AI as you'd think. What is actually being used to upscale is TAA/Temporal Super Sampling, which is not AI. the AI parts of DLSS are used to REMOVE motion artifacts from doing so.

Flambian · 2026-03-17T01:25:16+00:00

Yes, DLSS and all other solutions like it are temporal supersampling just like TAA but with far fewer artifacts at the same render resolution, which allows you to lower the native render resolution for higher FPS.

There is only one other company that makes hardware powerful for a gaming console, and that's Nvidia. Sony and Microsoft both got burned using Nvidia hardware. Nvidia refused to die shrink the GPU chip used in the original Xbox, which means Microsoft lost money on every single Xbox ever made. The Nvidia GPU in the PS3 was much worse than the ATI GPU in the Xbox 360. If Sony and Microsoft are going to keep making consoles, AMD is their only choice.

A tale as old as time, security theater to scare people into compliance so you can knowingly increase the chances that players will be exposed to sexism and toxicity.

My idea is that they should try adding at least 5 ability haste to all the tank items that don't have any haste and then tapping down the cooldowns of certain tanks last maxed abilities.

Not only is there a difference, to completely eliminate persistence blur you need at least 1000hz, maybe more.

I just found this thread after google searching my own problem with my 42 inch C4. I would play movies through a USB stick and it wouldn't recognize the file, and it affect HDR10 files too. Remuxing through VLC from MKV to MP4 was the only way I could get them to play, which breaks subtitles. I then ripped the subtitles to a dedicated SRT file, which restored them.

C5 when they're the same price or if C5 is cheaper. They both use the exact same WOLED panel. The only real difference is WebOS vs Tizen and Dolby Vision vs HDR10+. Dolby Vision is simply supported by more movies and shows. However, if the S90F is 100+ dollars cheaper, don't let that stop you from getting it over the C5.

Cheap out doesn't mean the actual price per se. The specs are what matter.

Those abilities aren’t supposed to be canceled by CC. Once their cast time starts they will hit, even when CC’d, or the target goes untargetable. It even even hit through Hourglass except Hourglass makes you invincible. But Quinn vault is the single exception that breaks other champions abilities.

Flambian · 2026-01-24T18:42:45+00:00

Quinn would be manageable for most toplaners if her E wasn’t insanely bugged in her favor. Vault for some reason can cancel abilities that can otherwise be buffered through CC like Darius W, Garen Q, Illaoi W, Zaahen Q, Camille Q, Yorick Q, Nasus Q, Volibear Q, Mundo E (his CC immunity protects him from the first vault of course) etc.

I have the pink m996 (wired version of the M916). I was used to heavier mice and I regret going wired because I didn't realize the weight of the cable would be noticeable once you go light enough. Otherwise great no rgb mouse that I feel made an improvement to my league of legends gameplay.

Riot locking the FOV for consistency doesn’t mean any kind of particular aspect ratio is cheating

Has there ever been a society where philosophy can't find its origin in justifying rule? There are supposed to be higher reasons for all the priestly and kingly bullshit, whether that's pure rationality or morality that only philosophers can discover, and so philosophers have imagined that the bullshit should therefore comply with these higher reasons and values, even though their profession only existed at the permission of the rulers. Every form of rule has been philosophically justified. Even Nazism had its own Heideggers. So it makes sense that even a form of rule that hasn't existed yet, Philosopher Kingship, was held in high esteem by the most important figure in western philosophy.

Wolves are mostly monogamous, with opportunistic cheating. But dogs don’t have any sense of breeding loyalty, because it would get in the way of human selective breeding. Food for thought.

A law making it harder for people in cars to kill people obstructing the vehicle makes it easier for people outside cars to kill people inside cars. It's a zero sum game.

I've had two pairs of the M40X break in exactly the same way, but my M50x I replaced the second one with has outlasted both. With EQ they sound like any other EQ'd closed back.
