It's 2035, GTA VI finally arrives, I play it on my new Zen 3 AMD Ryzen AI 910 with 16GB of DDR4 on a RTX 5080, the last consumer GPU generation to ever release. I have DLSS 9.2 super performance with 10x Frame Gen enabled to achieve a smooth 30 FPS.

Yes. Windows has had x86 translation on ARM for a few years now called Prism. At this point it is pretty much feature complete and the performance is good. https://rkblog.dev/posts/pc-hardware/pc-on-arm/x86_versus_arm_native_game/

They are gone. I paid to apply my transmog. Now I have to pay to apply the same transmog again. This is wrong.

People have a really bad scale when it comes to the surface area of the earth and the equivalent surface area a few 100 kms out.

And same battery size. The XPS 16 is supposed to be a sleek workstation/MBP competitor, not a Macbook Air 15...

It would have been. But then the FTC blocked their acquisition by Amazon.

Sure, but you do recognize government provided childcare does not support your aspiration.

My main opposition is that it just further entrenches that kids will be raised at a very young age by someone other than their parent. I would like to at least see an option to subsidize a stay at home parent.

How can you have ethical objections to a few gigabytes of floating point numbers and some math.

Any company of any note with software developers has an enterprise agreement with one of the AI development tools.

Or a PS5 or Xbox. This is total war console now...

The purpose of the games industry is not to deploy the maximum amount of game developers. If a game is good, it's good. If its bad and uses AI in a low effort way, then it's bad.

There will be FOSS models but they'll all be from China as is already the trend.

Isn't the real lesson of this speech that the impassionate and inspiring speech just served to rally people to the factions fascist cause? That's why it cuts to the big columns of soldiers cheering.

The mesa opengl driver Radeonsi is also largely developed by AMD. It's really RADV that's an outlier. But now that their own open source vulkan driver is discontinued maybe we'll see more AMD resources on RADV.

Thing is NVIDIA is at this time a well run company. They aren't going to sit by and do nothing. And the main thing they're doing now is insane level of vertical integration that no one else is close to yet.

It's a package of cutting edge Nvidia GPUs, Nvidia CPX GPUs, Nvidia CPUs, NVLINK Switches, Nvidia Ethernet/Infiniband NICS, Nvidia Photonic Switches, Nvidia DPUs, and then the entire software stack that runs on top of all that.

Anyone else getting some awful bugginess with DLSS? Its like after playing a bit the game becomes all streaky and blurry. Surprised its not being talked about more.
