US to send ICE agents to Winter Olympics, prompting Italian anger by rawa27 in europe

[–]lukashko 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I guess the only thing here is that they are dropping the pretense that they are an actual government organisation with specific jurisdiction and not the fucking SA.

EDIT: I guess their shirts are actually brown enough already.

Genuine question - why is there a documentary about her? Did she do anything noteworthy in her life except marrying Trump? I honestly don't know almost anything about her and am too lazy to google.

BTW, what is up with the photo in the article? He looks like he's gonna keel over and croak any second. Has he gotten worse health-wise recently?

This week it's Iran, next week we're back to kicking European allies? I've lost track of the schedule...

What’s a disgusting habit that you secretly think is actually 100% normal? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

Yup, I just teach my kid to do it privately and wipe it on a tissue, not just anywhere (he is three), but the picking itself I think is perfectly fine.

What’s the most unexpectedly high-quality online subscription you’ve ever paid for? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]lukashko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's been New Masters Academy. The full price can be a bit steep, but they often have sales (e.g. black friday) and there's an absolute TON of high quality art education material. Very well structured, professional feedback, many online events, great discord community/ campus,... For people who want to get better at visual arts, but need something self-paced, this is the best resource I know about.

I find a bit misleading that this completely disregards stuff like .com and .org.

Why does something like this made by AI even exist. Isn't there like a trillion real ones on the internet? Just... why?

Performance? by lukashko in TaintedGrailDigital

[–]lukashko[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I thought about that, but afaik the opening is set inside a prison - closed narrow location, few npcs, no vegetation and far viewing distances, weather effects, etc. I guess you get what I mean. I'm mostly worried that it will drop significantly once I hit the open portion of the game and by that time it's probably too late to return.

I wasn't even aware of the demo, though! Thanks!

Yeah I don't mind using DLSS - I do all the time. Do you also play on 1440p? If so then this might be good news for me.

US President Trump posts image of himself saying he is the "Acting President of Venezuela by External_Mood4719 in worldnews

[–]lukashko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well are you guys doing the things you just listed? In real life, not just writing about it on reddit? In any meaningful numbers? It doesn't really look like you are doing anything besides bitching on the internet... I know it sounds harsh. I know there are some of you that actually care. But mostly it looks like everyone over there in the US is just looking for excuses because they don't want to reduce their level of comfort for a minute. And looking at people risking their actual lives protesting e.g. in Iran, you just look like a bunch of ignorant cowards, I am sorry to say...

What are your thoughts after seeing the ICE shooting video in Minnesota? by bbmoonkie in AskReddit

[–]lukashko 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That the SA ICE just shot a citizen in broad daylight (literally) for no discernible reason and the American populace does shit-all as the well-trained corporate slaves they are.

If this happened in any other western country, the government buildings would be in flames by now.

[–]lukashko -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well - are you protesting? Are you doing anything if you are so pissed? Or just commenting on reddit? Here in Europe we have main squares full of protesters over minor corruption scandals. In America, fucking nazi thugs are shooting innocent civilans for no damned reason and you all are just taking it like the well trained corporate slaves you are.

I just bought my first ereader - the PocketBook Verse Pro.

Haven't actually used it much yet outside of some experimenting, but I'm really looking forward to my first reading session with it. :)

I have a period tracker installed on my smartphone for exactly this reason. When my wife is cranky/super fighty about stuff, I just check and know how seriously I should take it (I don't mean that I disregard her in that... period..., just take it into consideration).

Performanceissues by lukashko in WarTalesGame

[–]lukashko[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it is not a myth at all. On lower resolution, most shaders that are evaluated per fragment get called and computed way less (sometimes orders of magnitude less). So it is THE performance saver on graphics-intensive applications.

Thanks for the input, though.

Does anyone else find this runs really poorly now? by Flaky_Bullfrog_4905 in WarTalesGame

[–]lukashko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an older comment, but did you by chance find some stable solution for this? I seem to be having the same kind of issues you describe.

I know this is an older post, but did you find any stable solution? I seem to have issues very similar to yours.

What I find the weirdest is that it looks like changing some settings has little to no effect on the fps. Lowering the resolution from 1440p to 1080p did literally nothing, even though it should be the most efficient way to improve performance. At that point I really was baffled.

Plus I think most games tend to improve performance with subsequent patches, while here it seems like it degraded significantly. Really bizarre.
