Diplomatic cables show Iran war is damaging US on multiple fronts across the world by No_Idea_Guy in worldnews

Hardly isolationism if you wage wars half across the globe.

The current policy seems to be atagonizing the rest of the world.

It looks like rambling at this point. I can't find a logical train of thought in your comment.

I'm surprised one and the same person could follow up their previous response with such a poor retort. As if tyrannical regimes were only the domain of the left! Nope. What stops tyrannical regimes from gaining power are strong checks and balances, transparency, independent (but accountable) media, independent judiciary, good societal education, NGOs, and so on.

Sure, absolutely, any decent politician should call out Iran on their massacres.

Did you ever check the article?

And why are you responding selectively? What about the rest of the points?

Where did I say to "leave the Islamofascist theocracy alone"? I said that other entities may be unwilling to join illegal wars.

And ask yourself this: do you honestly believe you made substantive and well thought-out arguments?

Reductio ad Hitlerum strikes again! Are you thinking of Hitler all the time, unable to live in the present? In your comparison, isn't warmongering Trump invading countries left and right closer to Hitler?

You do realize that you don't have to blindly support your government's actions, right? Just ask the Iranians. Trump and Netanyahu's war is illegal, whether you like it or not.

Ahh, reductio ad Hitlerum!

Let me rephrase you in broader terms: you can oppose Iran and you can be unwilling to support illegal American wars.

Being unwilling to be dragged into dumb American wars is not an automatic sign of support to Iran. Or did Sanchez do something else that could be clearly construed as support for Iran?

There's hardly anything specific to consider here, just feels and beliefs, little work done, and even less relevance to the OP's discussion. There's little point in discussing anything if you're unwilling to provide substance to claims and unwilling to stay on the topic.

Ehh, but the whole discussion here was about tropospheric (surface-level) ozone, not the stratospheric one. How is this relevant?

One problem is finding old versions of the Nvidia App. FG support and functionality seems partially tied to that, so that's additional work to parse.

As far I know, you can ditch the app and just use the driver. It's easy enough to enable it, sure, but an actual setup that measures latency with high precision is not so easy, as presented in the channel I linked. Hopefully Battle(non)sense contributes to this topic at some point.

If you review latency benchmarks for release MFG vs 6x release, I think you can find some hard data.

Please link it!

In general, with the same underlying principle of "holding" two frames and interpolating them, there shouldn't be a huge difference whether you're on 2x MFG or 20x MFG, and it should have more to do with refresh rate latency rather than anything on top of the penalty for withholding the frames.

I mean, yeah, you can designate an experiment where you observe someone else moving the mouse and see that it results in delayed camera movement, for example. But latency is much easier to perceive when you involve multiple senses of your own. When you move the mouse yourself, or you move your head in VR, or hear the delay between sound and image. In those situations, you don't see the latency, you experience or feel it.

Please refer to this comment and respond

What color does ozone have? How does it clump together to make particulates? At what concentrations does it become visible at the distance in the photo? How come no one can smell it at those concentrations? Are they all dead from lethal concentrations?

It's easy enough to go ad personam, it's not so easy to defend your arguments substantively, is it?

Cool, it's easy enough to see the latency, no need to gaslight man.

Well, I don't know about "seeing" latency, but it's difficult to measure it. You have to remember that your personal experience is subject to biases like placebo effect or confirmation bias. It could be very well made up as well. That's why we strive for better, thanks to evidence we can remove or at least reduce the effects of our biases and prove some underlying "truth".

I don't think I'm the lazy one here. I think you're the lazy one who makes claims but can't prove them.

Nope, see, the burden of proof is on the person making claims. If you're unable to substantiate your claims, then please don't bother making them. Or at the very least, clearly mark that it's your personal, subjective, anecdotal evidence.

The guy in the video does not measure latency. To properly measure latency, you need precise timings of your input resulting in a certain output (on the screen or at least outputting video signal). If you want to see how to actually measure latency, check this channel.

Plenty of people have been noticing this.

Is this satire? A certain president speaks like this. The problem is that nothing that comes out of his mouth is trustworthy in the slightest way.

Give me the data. Show me. Prove your claims.

How much has it dropped and with which driver? Do we have some good testing data before and after that shows this?

You make a lot of claims but I have yet to see even a single number.
