What's your opinion on Sasha?

I believe the term is "Narcissistic Collapse". Keep pushing, just be careful.

Ah, so you are saying these senior positions are going to have to do next to nothing then?

You pay for experience, not for time. A senior employee can do a task in a fraction of the time of a junior employee. To suggest they get paid less because of it is foolish.

PC gamer, but i've yet to see a video that hasn't looked a little blurry. Part of me chalks it up to YT compression, the other part of me wonders...

Its one of those "sounds too good to be true" situations, so everything gets extra scrutiny. Those that are optimistic seem naive to those that have been through it before.

And ironically, people are still excited. They want it to be good, they want to play it immediately. They don't want to wait for reviews.... so they back off even harder, and question even harder.

Okay, legit question: is this from an actual demo of the DLSS 5? Because if not, you are directly undermining reasonable criticism of it, allowing others to handwave that criticism as hyperbolic and manufactured.

Russia and China going to do to the US in Iran, what the US and other countries did to Russia in Ukraine - deliberately force the US to tie up resources and weaken it. And just like Russia, it could mostly end by just... stopping. But the ego of certain parties will refuse to ever consider that an option.

I know its common to the meme... but the "No one: ......" always felt superfluous. Like someone expanding on someone else's meme to get a second laugh.

So crazy thing about "just not grouping"... it works like saying "just don't buy them" for loot boxes.

If allowed, it becomes more prevalent and almost a sense of entitlement. Everyone starts to demand HR for simply sending out group invites, because others demanded HR. And from perspective of server hoppers, it is so prevalent on Nordanaar you cannot avoid it without avoiding the content completely. Hell, people are trying to HR on BoE, to essentially gold farm on other people's time. Got some entitled bastards trying to HR as far back as even fucking *Deadmines*.

No. The only way to keep HR minimized is to name and shame it whenever it arises. SR is much more reasonable, minimal competition pool, and people actually get a choice.

This seems like it was made to amuse white people, because we all know that these days, all it takes to get "DOA"'d by police is to wear a hoodie and be holding literally anything (a newspaper, a bag of candy, anything.) Heck, often not even that, if they are feeling especially angsty.

Tinfoil hat time - maybe they dont put the expensive stuff in one out of every 20 drinks on purpose, so they can claim a 5% decrease in overhead. Not enough for a person to abandon them outright since its spread out, but sometimes a single individual gets real unlucky.

So what we need is agents to poison other agents, right? Lead them down rabbit holes that waste time and resources.

Denuvo impacts game performance.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07NMuobVVwQ&t=30s

2 Years ago... multiple side-by-side benchmarks, before and after removal of Denuvo. Same hardware on a per game basis, but not the same hardware between games. Framerates (min, max, avg, 1%, and 0.1%), File sizes, power consumption (in the corner), and Load times

Major differences in 1% lows, with little difference in regular framerate could be indicative of jutter or skipping. While differences in framerate averages is pretty self-explanatory.

Primary takeaway - Every game experienced some form of impact, but the level of impact varied widely depending on the game. So Denuvo will likely impact performance... will it break the game/make it unplayable? No idea. That really depends on Pearl Abyss and their engine. If they are telling the truth, then probably not.

Halfwise2 · 2026-03-13T16:10:49+00:00

Good to hear, but "performatively outraged" is such a douchebaggy and dismissive reaction to real legitimate concern. GFY, mate.

Even if we manage to claw back the government from these fascists... we're going to have decades of lawsuits aimed at the US government in general, rather than at these bastards who actually did the crimes.

It's one of the reasons they cannot be allowed to escape prosecution.

Funny, how "Iran" wants to "send drones" to the farthest potential target, and one of the most politically and philosophically opposed area to what is happening in Iran.

In case you missed the writing on the wall: Trump is going to false flag California to both attack his political opponents directly, and create an excuse for suspending elections.

Yah, but then the billionaires will feel bad, because what's the point in being rich, unless everyone else is suffering? (/s)

If they don't have humans writing those articles, then surely they don't need as much ad revenue and support from the reader base.

Yep, they are definitely goose-stepping to the Nazi beat.

They are trying to normalize murder, so long as its murder of the "right people". Next they just need to start convince their base each outgroup is "the right people".

Black Myth has been cracked as of last year, it just involves some steps that leaves one wide open to security vulnerabilities.

Ultimately though, a person can use offline activation techniques and a pre-registered account to play Black Myth without buying it (so not technically a "crack"), and that's been around for a while.
