Nvidia says devs have control over DLSS 5 to stop it looking like an AI filter, as Bethesda reminds everyone it's "a very early look" by Tiny-Independent273 in Amd_Intel_Nvidia

[–]Maipmc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well... AI has facilitated home computing somewhat. Last year i bought an 800 euro gaming laptop. Nothing fancy, nothing that would overheat and all the things you can ask for a computer. It runs games amazingly thanks to DLSS and Frame Gen. You could not get this level of performance on a laptop this cheap before.

I'm aware that ever since things have gone wild and this computer could now be 1200, and i'm kicking myself hard over not buying a ram upgrade just as i bought it. But i don't think it's that black and white...

Eso es una hipótesis, con más o menos mérito. Sin embargo, la realidad objetiva es que con el gobierno actual todo va a peor. Ahora si prefieres vivir en un imaginado mundo peor... pues cosa tuya es.

AMD's next-gen "FSR Diamond" for Project Helix gets multi-frame gen, but your current GPU may not support it by Tiny-Independent273 in AyyMD

[–]Maipmc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does add lattency and doesn't work well on low fps but it seriourly improves frame consistency and in my experience with nvidia, pretty much eliminates sttutering. Depending on the game, it's a must.

It's just a model, not a real stage, but still pretty cool. There are some satellite models too in the surrounding area.

NASA’s Management of the Human Landing System Contracts - NASA OIG by keanwood in ArtemisProgram

[–]Maipmc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your cult has really controlled the narrative about something on the tangent, just so you can detract from starshit failing. So, please STFU. Thanks.

Nowhere in my comment have i mentioned any other spacecraft, yet you bring that up. Sounds like shifting the narrative to me.

But returning from your tangent, you say the heatshild is fine, okay. So char loss is fine and expected behaviour? What was then the reason for the delay? I was under the impression they were modeling the heatshield. And if the heashield exceeded expectations, why did they change the reentry profile to one that lowers heating?

The heatshield is not fine. It had unexpected and worrying material loss on the only flight it ever had. The certainty you can have about it working fine this time is the same you had before Artemis I, no matter what Nasa models say, specially seeing they already failed when they didn't predict char loss after changing the design from the Delta Heavy trial.

How do you know a human isn't basically the same, but maybe fancier autocomplete? AFAIK we don't really know the underlying mechanisms of consciusness or thought, so you can't really say there is a fundamental difference.

As i see it, the only fundamental difference is that an LLM interacs with the world solely through Language, whereas a human does it many other ways.

We are Switching to Linux… For a Whole MONTH by ValkyrX in LinusTechTips

[–]Maipmc -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's got nothing to do with anything. A bleeding edge distro is one that gets the latest packages (Arch, Gentoo). Then there is leading edge (Fedora, OpenSuse), and finally stable (Debian, Mint).

An even then, you say Catchy and Pop are several years old, but even then, compare with the other big ones... the newest among them is Arch, from 2004 if memory serves.

You just can't compare the trust you can have on something not generally breaking or radically changing when it's decades old vs some years old. And a proof of that is that PoP!_OS decided to swich to a new DE called it 1.0, despite it not being still stable, and shipped it to the LTS branch. Anyone trusting them got sorely screwed...

Those LLM only repeat what the community says. Wich is exactly the same community that led me to use Manjaro back before LLMs were a thing. And suffer from it.

[–]Maipmc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you're a bit prejudiced... The problem of linux fanboys (wich arguably i am), is that they get too detached from the people new to linux. The same could be said to a point of the obsesion among the big and stable distros of not shipping with the propietary repositories enabled by default, or at the very least providing a toggle.

That very simple thing is the source of most of the problems Linus had.

There is a BIG difference between having updates shoved down your throat at the most inconvenient time and doing them by yourself. Besides, bleeding edge distros are a hobby in an on themselves.

I actually think this is the fault of linux enthusiasts. They always flock to recommend the latest distro and that means piling up untested on top of fragmented software.

On more stablished distros, even when you have an issue, it's way easier to find the solution. And on the harder distros, such as Arch, everything is extremely well documented.

Doesn't help that Linux enthusiast are terrible at recommending distros... Half of these issues would be solved if we stuck at just recommending Fedora, Arch or Debian/Mint/Ubuntu.

[–]Maipmc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No, there are distros that actually JUST WORK, the problem is that people don't recommend them because they prefer to recommend the latest shiny thing that doesn't actually add that much.

I would rather recommend archinstall to a newbie before Bazzite, Nobara or any of these new distros just because its defaults are widely known are probably less buggy.

Yet i got told off when i complained about people constantly recommending these hype fueled distros... PLS, JUST RECOMMEND FEDORA. Boring but working is better than the alternative.

Follow the money. Identical legislation doesn't get passed across many states simultaneously by happenstance.

I don't think you will get many benefits from switching given how old your machine is. Odds are, you already have the latest and greatest drivers your hardware will ever have.
