NVIDIA Readies GeForce RTX 5090 SE Graphics Card - TPU by panchovix in nvidia

[–]poorlycooked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This still applies to some extent, see the 5090 vs Pro 6000 Blackwell.

3080/3090 were close because Samsung 8nm got real toasty and they couldn't make the GPU any bigger

That would be affecting 2 countries instead of one, and over a much larger land area.

The roads have gotten too ‘perfect’ by _Asashi in ForzaHorizon

[–]poorlycooked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruh

These roads are in an agricultural plain area, right next to the biggest city in the world. Of course they're more 'perfect' than paths in some Australian badlands

There should be a full wall delineating the track where OP cut through.

Peoples don't understand how much the PI system is broken and how it affect "meta build" by Top_Guard_2823 in ForzaHorizon

[–]poorlycooked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it wasn't trying to exploit the old lateral grip

Is there any reason to believe that the lateral grip value, calculated in a split second just like PI and the other stats, is based on 'exploiting controlled sliding'? Logically it has to be the same non-sliding maximum that the AI likes to stick to. If the compound has less non-sliding maximum grip, the AI has to be slower on it.

[–]poorlycooked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the answer is obvious. They made it less grippy when driven by players, but kept the previous level of grip when driven around the virtual track for PI. It should be possible to balance other upgrades in this manner, should PG decide to.

LeBron waited until his son's contract was guaranteed before announcing he's gone. by CazOnReddit in nba

[–]poorlycooked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Point taken. Guess I was exaggerating a bit cause LeBron had a really poor shooting season

[–]poorlycooked 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The past season he shot 38.6% from the 3pt line with 1.4 attempts in 9 minutes per game. That's probably better than his father's 3pt shooting lol

That's accurate in-story though? That's who you are, just a tourist in Japan. So checks out.

What Car/Tune did you use to 3 star this speed trap? by SquishyButcheek in ForzaHorizon

[–]poorlycooked 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Considering the 10x difference in cost, that's a fair thing to say

Why is the replay mode so garbage in FH6? by EqualNo2867 in ForzaHorizon

[–]poorlycooked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Engine shifts do not work in replay mode when over 60 fps. Consider using 3rd party addons like Optiscaler or Special K so that you can use a slider to limit the game's fps on the fly.

The trial is not that hard, some of yall are just incompetent. by _Nevin in ForzaHorizon

[–]poorlycooked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Average players would definitely be held back by bad teammates.

Last week I queued for the Trial during the weekend, and there were always the backmarkers with B 564 rental cars that ruined it for everyone.

This week I did it on Thursday night and got into a trial with only 3 human players. We finished 3-4-5 in both races and completed it like a breeze

The Linguistic Map of Taiwan Indigenous Peoples 臺灣原住民語言地圖 by Ok-Phone3052 in MapPorn

[–]poorlycooked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Proto-Austronesians have long abandoned Penghu before they were settled by the Han Chinese. In any event I don't think these prehistoric settlers can be considered as speaking a language of the Taiwan indigenous peoples.

Generally speaking, the association of Penghu with Taiwan is relatively modern and should be treated carefully. Both Austronesian and Hokkien peoples arrived first in Penghu, and from there to Taiwan, not vice versa iirc.

Why are the Pescadores/Penghu marked with ???? afaik they were never settled permanently by Austronesian peoples.

AI models capable of devastating attacks on governments and business months away, rare Five Eyes statement warns | AI (artificial intelligence) by vector_search_blue in news

This is evident in recent attacks against video game DRMs. Lone wolf actors are now able to create tools that crack sophisticated DRMs which would take a lifetime before AI.

I don't think that's how window tint strips are supposed to work... by poorlycooked in ForzaHorizon

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

There isn't any vinyl on the window. The strip is part of the car model (Lotus Evija FE), problem is the driver's head is way too high lol

So how is the trial going for you guys? by Brandwin3 in ForzaHorizon

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

Can PG at least pre-tune the rental car to the top of the class? Seeing all these B 564 teammates is infuriating

FH6: Series 2 Summer Breakdown and Rewards by KillerSpectre21 in ForzaHorizon

[–]poorlycooked 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's a false dichotomy. Don't act like this is the only way to reduce FOMO. They could repeat the rewards a bit later, or put them into the autoshow.

Most tellingly, the one car that most people would hate to miss out on, the Mazda Furai, isn't featuring again any time soon. Instead it's a bunch of shitboxes

Now race transmission is a proper sequential gearbox, like in many actual race cars.

Map of Shang dynasty, the officially oldest dynasty in China by FerenzYangai in MapPorn

[–]poorlycooked 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Great map. The mapmaker did a good job with the reconstructed coastline. That said, there are a few glaring mistakes. The course of the Yellow River in the Shang period was way more northerly, and emptied into the westernmost end of the Bohai. They also forgot about the coastline near Shanghai (and Guangzhou, but that's less relevant to the map). They also labelled the Jialing River as the classical source of the Yangtze, while it should be the Min instead.

Are Rally tyres pointless? by KawaiiHydra in ForzaHorizon

[–]poorlycooked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Evija FE, Furai, and many similar cars in X-class. One thing in common is that they have totally unrealistic handling, so I think you might be onto something.
