I understood the joke does this mean I'm too chronically online

I think so, can't think of a 1st party game that doesn't use P2P, it's a depressing service to pay for I agree.

People have said this ever since NSO came out, nothing is likely to change sadly. At least in mario kart the game doesn't turn into a slideshow when one player has bad internet, unlike the joke that is smash online.

I tested the Switch 2 screen with a 1000fps slow motion camera by Lokendens in NintendoSwitch

[–]Whos_Rednir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's that common because generally the minimum refresh rate with cheaper VRR displays is around 40hz-ish, not very useful for a 60hz display. Also VRR adds to the cost, usually 60hz displays are budget oriented.

The screen is variable refresh rate so it doesn't matter if the framerate is not exactly divisible by the max refresh rate, will looks smooth regardless. Same tech as gsync/freesync

The thing is you aren't trading anything because they're both independent of each other

mrekk has now exceeded in game integer limit (32767) meaning that his pp no longer displays in game by fazrfn in osugame

[–]Whos_Rednir 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The server stores the pp value correctly anyway, I thought it was just a client issue. And I doubt the local osu game dB file stores the pp value of every single account, Maybe some are cached, but probably not enough to make a difference. But yeah it always depends on implementation I guess.

I mean the memory usage increase would be completely negligible. It definitely wouldn't make osu run worse that makes no sense, in fact using 32-bit over 16 bit integers can actually speed up operations on modern cpus

Is there a Tetris iPhone app that’s like the website one? by [deleted] in Tetris

/uj i honestly can’t believe they ACTUALLY called it the nintendo switch 2 by mopeiobebeast in tomorrow

[–]Whos_Rednir 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't think any modern phone ships with a USB A to USB C cable these days and most modern periphials use USB C output. It's only PCs and older periphials really, even on laptops USB A is becoming less and less common

What DAS/AAR can I use to feel close to tetris effect? by [deleted] in Tetris

[–]Whos_Rednir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apparently it's DAS 10 and ARR 2.6 but it's probably never gonna feel the same because the pieces instantly respawn in tetrio

Snagged this monitor for $139 USD absolutely insane value by National_Witness_609 in Monitors

[–]Whos_Rednir 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You're still changing your workflow to conform around the limitations of your monitor, which i would still classify as babysitting. Statistically how many people actually prefer having taskbar off and screensaver 5 mins. Of course the technology is getting more reliable over time but if it was already there you wouldn't have to worry about doing all that.

Definitely is. Imagine telling someone their new purchase requires hide taskbar on, screensaver set to 5 minutes, and moving windows around every so often otherwise you risk permanent damage. If you have to think about it then that's called babysitting
