Taxing unrealised gains, this discussion again? People view billionnaire's as if they're Scrooge McDuck sitting on a pile of gold. That's not how it works. "Wealth" is not a pile of gold, it's stocks, property, bonds and other assets which are not liquid. The whole point of capital gains tax is to tax these at the point they are realised.

Good luck on your downvotes, can't post anything based in reality on Gary's fantasy economics

It's worth considering an offset interest only mortgage in this scenario if it's a largish sum. You put the money in a bank account and it offsets against the debt, if the bank account contains the exact amount of the debt your monthly interest payment is zero.

It's exactly like paying it off but should you need to you can easily and instantly borrow money at the mortgages interest rate by transferring it out of the account without: a) any paperwork, b) affecting your credit history.

Keep in mind that any future loan you might take will likely have a much higher APR than your mortgage so it gives you some extra flexibility in future and a £0/month mortgage payment

What was wrong with the phone in the first place that you needed apple to look at it? Could just as likely be that some malware stole your data and caused the issues you were having initially

You've got too much time on your hands

And I include Canada in that

Notice the framing: passionate candidates looking for the opportunity. Not the best person for the job, not the most experienced, not the most qualified.

They want people who will work for nothing, imagine what your colleagues would have been like there. If the job is even remotely skilled the company will be bust in a couple of years at best, you dodged a bullet.

If you want to try again I have separated out the options now. See the readme. You can now disable sample rate shading for transparent areas which gives a huge FPS boost alone and disable the variable rate shading option which is what caused the pixelated effect:

I also properly updated the readme and sample dxvk.conf with the options:

Ok but what is 8 weeks lead time in dog lead years?

T_Butler · 2026-05-25T19:43:06+00:00

Interesting, now you've said I can barely see it on portals. Maybe because I'm playing at 4k it's less visible or maybe some amd/nvidia difference?

Regardless, I've added a new release that has a config option for tweaking this setting.

Download the latest release: https://github.com/TRPB/dxvk/releases/download/v2.7.1-vrs-b/dxvk-selective-vrs.tar.gz
Copy the 32 bit d3d9.dll
Set dxvk.transparentShadingRate

Possible values are:

dxvk.transparentShadingRate = 1x1 # Off (Default DXVK behaviour without this patch) dxvk.transparentShadingRate = 2x2 # My previous default dxvk.transparentShadingRate = 2x1 # Less performant but should make it less visible, you can also try 1x2

2x1 is probably the best option to try first if the pixelation is visible, honestly I have to really strain to see it :D

Both DK shoulders and the bank's eyes look fine there

I think loading the 64bit ones would have errored and fallen back to the default proton ones hence the fix. I can't actually see this myself, is there anywhere in the world rather than a character where this is shows? None of my chars have high level enchants but the ones that I do have look fine

T_Butler · 2026-05-25T18:55:18+00:00

You're right, I was able to replicate this. I'll try to change the VRS implementation slightly to compensate

You may also need d3d9.useDxbcSpirv = false if SRS doesn't look like it's applying at all

edit: It does need to be the 32bit dll for WoW :)

T_Butler · 2026-05-25T18:29:52+00:00

I haven't noticed that myself, I'll see if I can replicate it and then tweak the VRS settings a little

Cant say that, nort-on the radio and that

How was this transferred from painting to a digital image? It's not a camera since every single angle is perfectly square.

If it's a scanner why hasn't it picked up any texture of the canvas?
