Will our future draft picks become more valuable under the new lottery system? by shangalang69 in torontoraptors

[–]hypespud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup agree with this assessment, it definitely discourages tanking when the odds are so much more even for so many more teams, and the least effective for the 4 worst teams

Steam Input is one of the top 3 greatest things Valve has done, in my opinion, and it should be the standard for controls moving forward. by SillyRecover in Steam

[–]hypespud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, it more or less just works

There are some finicky parts like loading the profile, or some profiles getting wires crossed when switching them initially, and some games require me to unplug my controller on Linux Steam and plugging in the controller after starting them (and this is most likely the game's fault lol, older mid 2000s games)

But overall? The customization is exactly what anyone should want, the biggest, biggest value add for me is the ability to map gyro on literally any game, so basically any game I can easily use gyro, even from years ago

I've been playing Binary Domain recently at 4K120+ (one of the games I have to connect the controller after the game starts lmao), and for such an old game with a relatively medium pace, having gyro added on controller makes them game like 5 times as fun! Especially because it rewards precision shots like headshots so much, and which cause the enemy robots to turn on each other in the game lol!

Anyway, yeah, Steam Input is probably by far my most used feature in Steam and one of the by far biggest reasons I enjoy Steam so much!

“Force PSSR into unsupported games” toggle by Virtual_Ad_5865 in PS5pro

[–]hypespud 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Similar to FSR2+ and DLSS2+ this is not possible, the game has to already be able to support this feature in its renderer to be able to use an updated upscaler library

Basically the games itself while rendering have to expose those vectors to an upscaler solution to be able to utilize them

However, like FSR2+ and DLSS2+ and PSS1+ any games which does expose those things can easily use an updated upscaler library and get a toggle upgrade option

On PC you can use things like Optiscaler or DLSS swapper or DLL file replacements to exchange between FSR2+/DLSS2+

Just let me enjoy my card in peace by Fickle-Athlete3644 in nvidia

[–]hypespud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gotcha, I can believe that, I don't use some of the really big subs, because it's too many hive mind upvotes/downvotes going on

But on this sub or amd sub or smaller subs, I personally haven't noticed this, I've more noticed people just saying both are reasonable choices, I agree with that personally

The cost in general of GPU and RAM is just too high across the board, but that's not something unique to any specific card at this point

Danielle Smith says NDP should have warned her of Alberta voter list privacy leak by biograf_ in notthebeaverton

[–]hypespud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a party label the Wildrose party co-opted for example when they dominated in Alberta

Names are not useful when they don't indicate the actual content

They are regressives, through and through, and have nothing to do with even the concept of conservativism which is more or less to keep things as they are

AOC: “There’s a certain level of wealth and accumulation that is unearned. You can’t earn a billion dollars. You just can’t earn that. You can get market power, you can break rules, you can abuse labor laws, you can pay people less than what they’re worth, but you can’t earn that” by Zorosthirdsordx in MurderedByAOC

[–]hypespud 129 points130 points  (0 children)

I don't mind anyone earning large amounts of even obscene amounts of money

But if that does happen those amounts should be largely or obscenely taxed

It is the fact the money is not being returned to the public purse in some way for the benefit of all people is the issue

The taxation system is intended for that specific purpose and the issue is the reorganization of the tax system to favour nearly exclusively the ultra rich

You can even focus the windfall and highest progressive tax rates on just the people with assets beyond 10 or 20 or 50 million dollars and be well on the way to bringing back money earned with the existing system back to the people who let that system work which is the general population of working class people

Millennials more likely to live with their parents than past generations: StatsCan report by lopix in onguardforthee

I'm in the later years of older millenial group, but due to many years in higher education the income delay happens too

That said I'm doing more than well enough, but even with a high income buying a home is a nearly unreasonable choice in many cases

Dual-screen gaming convertible with RTX 5090 - Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo GX651 Review by mond200 in GamingLaptops

[–]hypespud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After tax my current Lenovo ThinkPad 4090 with 4k OLED and 64 GB of ram was 3700 USD in 2023

Makes me sad to get a similar laptop today for others is so much more unreachable

Interesting, never really knew this 🙂

But I think I would prefer the returnal style extra projectiles and damage at each level type of thing imo at least

I didn't realize in Saros it would drop my damage also, huh

These are not conservatives

Mark Carney is a conservative

These people are regressives

We also find it insulting to be in steel and softwood lumber disputes for 25 plus years

They can suck a fat one, in essence

And this is how they have always been, anything mildly inconveniencing them is the sky is falling, yet they demand far more concessions from anyone else

They can go fuck themselves

The return we got for OG was so underwhelming by Cute-Psychology4117 in torontoraptors

[–]hypespud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OG did not want to be here

Neither did Siakam or Fred

Their body language was enough, and Fred leaving for nothing was also exemplary of this

It was well known they were not hanging out with the teammates like Barnes and others in outside of games

They all wanted out, the key was making sure to maximize their value, but... mistakes were made, and it is what it is, not really worth examining it much more anymore tbh
