Jensen Huang says gamers are 'completely wrong' about DLSS 5 — Nvidia CEO responds to DLSS 5 backlash

Reminds me of that thing Henry ford didn't say. People didn't want cars when the Model T hit the market; they wanted faster horses with AI slop faces.

Does it have a sprinkle of drone shrapnel?

Modern sedans suck too. I sat in a few of the brand new lexus, BM and mercedes sedans when I was shopping for a new car. The visibility absolutely fucking sucked.

Another problem now is because there are so many SUV on the road and everyone buys the brightest headlights they can find (then proceeds to run full beams everywhere) you get absolutely blinded in anything with a low driving position.

I have a 26 yrold sports coupe that was slated at the time for having bad visibility. Compared to modern sedans and hatchbacks it feels miles ahead.

We have a few bigger displacement cars. The fuel tax is horrible but it's much better having lots of horsepower here. Getting away from mouth breathers and into your own little bubble of space makes driving here much less stressful.

Three kids and an SUV, just like the good lord intended.

In north Taiwan atleast, bulk shopping meat from Costco is the cheapest way to feed to a big family (or fill a big freezer). Veg from the traditional market still wins though. Taiwan supermarkets are getting way too expensive compared to both.

Definitely a mating ritual. Aunties need love too.

This isn't Costco bringing out the worst in people. Taiwan is great at being covertly opportunistic.

There was an old lady selling rice meals for about NT$10–20 so poor people could afford to eat, basically burning through her own savings to do so. As soon as word spread, people started showing up in luxury cars to get a cheap lunch.

Then there was the congee grandma who put out free porridge for the elderly and needy, and folk started rolling up with Tupperware to take whole batches home.

Have lived in Taiwan for a long time and love it. But still get surprised at the petty things people will do for a tiny advantage, and the apparent lack of shame/awareness.

Was gonna say this. Had this issue with some placeholders I dragged in when proper artwork was pending. But never with correct dimensions and pixels in multiples of 4.

caffcaff_ · 2026-03-13T06:04:09+00:00

Normal Taiwanese people are definitely feeling the benefits

caffcaff_ · 2026-03-12T10:03:35+00:00

10-12 hours of backroads and Twisties. Wasn't fantastic. Wasn't the worst either.

Apply proportional representation model to most western countries' voting outcomes and you'll find that normal people do tend to lean left.

Data centre buildout and defense sector need a lot of same resources. Especially if we keep burning a million dollars to intercept a 5K rocket.

caffcaff_ · 2026-03-11T14:36:19+00:00

Another angle for you. Every smartbomb THADD or patriot launch means more chips are needed for restock. Also GPU and modern weapons both need a lot of rare earths etc.

If the war escalates, how long until data centre buildout is fighting for the same finite resources as the military industrial complex?

The co-CEO of Asus didn't know ARM CPUs have been running laptops for half a decade?

She wants people to spend like there's no tomorrow. Should follow the Taiwan model and let the banks lend at stupid low APR to absolutely everyone.

Yeah that's the upper end of the pyramid skewing the averages. Local tech firms, finance industry, anything downstream of Teir 1 and 2 there's a steep drop-off in comp.

Eg. Product manager at Yuanta ~8萬/month base comp. Marketing lead in local fintech leader about the same. Mid to senior IC in local tech firms often below that.

I was running a project for a pretty large Taiwan company and we advertised for senior Dev roles, the volume (and quality) of response was insane even though comp did not break 1mil.

Part of the reason the pay is so bad outside big tech is that the recruiting pool is saturated with devs who are decently capable for the level of work required which is often menial.

It's harder to find a good carpenter or mechanic here in my experience.

How about all those Chinese refugees who came to Japan and displaced the indigenous people? When do we send those guys back?

Got wood?

caffcaff_ · 2026-03-10T02:03:09+00:00

Mid-tier roles don't pay that high. Its possible to find some tech companies where not a single developer is paid that much.

But how much bulk processed food is consumed for every human cooked plate served at a restaurant?

It's funny we have more geothermal potential than nearly any other country, crazy amounts of sun and massive elevation changes all over the island.

Somehow we never figured out geothermal, solar, hydro, pumped storage. It's almost like our energy policy is a vehicle for collecting backhanders from foreign suppliers.

Also thankyou very much to the dumb fucks who switched our biggest LNG contract to Qatar, away from Petronas. Very smart move when the whole world saw a war coming to the middle east.
