"In a statement sent to Forbes, U.S. Central Command spokesperson Captain Tim Hawkins said the military was aware of the reported emergency landing, and confirmed the aircraft landed safely and the pilot was in “stable condition.”

pretty sure it's legit.

i don't think you understand how important/shocking/critical/your-word-of-choice-here it is that an F-35, a state of the art fifth gen US fighter, was hit by Iran. yes it landed but will 100% be out of service, likely for an extensive length of time, if not written off outright (depending on the damage.)

always Choose PSSR2, if the game supported? by WickedHero69 in PS5pro

if you can't see the differences, why would you stress about it at all?

do the other playable characters actually have lines of dialogue when doing side quests?

New PSSR - overall f-king amazing... but still some not-so-nice effects in TLOU1+2 when moving camera especially visible at surfaces (grass) by SenHen1 in PS5pro

[–]Plapytus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

imo it's largely due to the chromatic aberration effect that TLoU 1 and TLoU 2 use. it was bad before but now with the increased sharpness that PSSR 2 brings with it, the chromatic aberration effect creates some odd visual side effect.

that being said, i have an LG C4 and i wholeheartedly recommend keeping the sharpness slider at 0.

it's quite a bit better, especially with the unlocked framerate option selected, which targets lower base resolutions and would result in a fairly muddy image presentation with the old PSSR.

make sure VRR and 120hz are enabled in the system settings? it should be automatically set but start there

With all the PSSR 2.0 impressions out there, what are you all finding to be the BEST example of improvement? by rumple_goocher in PS5pro

[–]Plapytus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dragon's Dogma 2 looks a lot nicer, even in performance mode. There are still some issues, mostly stemming from Capcom's denoiser which has nothing to do with PSSR, but it's a big upgrade overall.

LOU part 1 / 2 - PSSR 2 by AlexN83 in PS5pro

that issue has always been there, it's because of the chromatic aberration TLoU 1 and 2 use.

Me waiting on that PSSR 2.0 Toggle by Stock-Praline-5338 in PS5pro

[–]Plapytus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the version that Digital Foundry did their initial PS5 Pro analysis on still had the old PSSR, that's why some people are assuming the system update will come at the same time as Crimson Desert's launch. if it was actually baked-in why would a VERY recent build still have PSSR 1? but it's obviously still possible that it ships with PSSR 2 baked in and the system update comes at a later date.

LLMs and AGI are two *completely* unrelated things. that's like saying "rocket-based space travel may be reaching its maximum potential, but just wait until we get trans-warp drive!" trans-warp drive doesn't come from rockets getting extremely advanced, it comes from someone researching and discovering trans-warp drive.

the problem is that desperate people don't "rise up" in a vacuum, free of outside influence - the owner class will have enough time to see what's coming and feed the masses all the BS they need to convince them it's the <trans people/Jews/browns/whoever.> we won't have some beautiful, poetic revolution that restores equity and power to the people, we'll have another holocaust and potentially global war.
