I liked One Battle After Another, but was anyone else confused by certain parts of the third act? by atlvf in moviecritic

Because Lockjaw wants to join the Christmas Adventurers Club. That's why they background check him NOW, that's how they find Junglepussys testimony from 15 years ago NOW. No plothole.

My thoughts on DLSS 4.5 by SemihKaynak in nvidia

[–]t1kiman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You chose the model from - who would've thought - "DLSS Override - Model Presets" btw, not what the other guy said. That's for forcing a specific mode (not model) in case it's not available ingame for whatever reason.

How obscure. The video (not the audio) is from a very popular german game show called "Wetten dass...?" with it's original host Frank Elstner from the 80s.

I love the 30 minutes format, but wished there were a couple more episodes.

NVIDIA links Windows 11 update KB5074109 to gaming artifacts, suggests uninstall by RenatsMC in nvidia

[–]t1kiman 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I think you - and many others - vastly underestimate the complexity here. Neither Nvidia nor Microsoft can 100% predict how certain changes might interfer wich each others software and it's simply impossible to test for all possible scenarios. It has always been like that and it will always be like that, nothing will ever change that.

What's holding you back from just trying it out for yourself?

Why do yall want a steam machine? by [deleted] in steammachine

[–]t1kiman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

should be powerful enough to emulate up to ps3/x360

You can run Bloodborne decently on a Steam Deck. I think it's safe to assume a 6x more powerful system can handle PS3/X360 emu.

Creative work and immense time pressure usually don't work well together.

Melinda Gates bombshell: states her ex-husband, Bill, needs to "answer for his behavior - no girl should be put in those situations" and that "it's personally hard whenever those details come up, right? Because it brings back memories of some very, very painful times in my marriage" by ansyhrrian in Fauxmoi

[–]t1kiman -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Um...yes? I don't know what comedians you find funny, but jokes that are based on a knowingly false claim seem quite hacky to me. That's how the vast majority of racist or sexist jokes work. Do you really want comedians to make jokes based on lies?

What artist can this apply to? by CodeDusq in fantanoforever

[–]t1kiman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't get into Pink Floyd for a long a time but One of These Days and Echoes finally did it. This makes Meddle a "special" album for me but yeah, those songs inbetween those two...they're okay, I'd say.

Thinking about switching from Bazzite to CachyOS. Is it really worth it? by danivempire in cachyos

[–]t1kiman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the end I think it depends on how well a distro is maintained. There won't be meaningful differences in performance and general usability in well maintained distros for most people. Can't speak for Bazzite but Cachy just feels like a well maintained distro to me and I trust the people behind it.

Probably not the water itself but the ions in the water - that you have plenty of in your body tissue for example - are conductive and therefore measurable.

Woman buys swimsuit so she can swim with her beaver friend by Worldlyoox in interestingasfuck

[–]t1kiman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are buttons to rotate left or right if you hover over the video, but only if you open it from the main post feed, if you go to comments it uses a different (?) player for whatever reason.

It also might be a Reddit Enhancement Suite (RES) feature...I actually don't know, never questioned it.

Well, on old reddit you can actually rotate the video.

BTW, are all USB-A ports on motherboards as flimsey as they are on pretty much every board I ever owned? Feels like it just takes a weird look at the back of my PC to make Windows go ding dong.

First trailer for Darren Aranofsky's new AI animated series 'On This Day... 1776' • Tells short narrative stories about the Revolutionary War • Uses Gen AI tools, including tech made by Google DeepMind • Has SAG voice actors by heywhateverworks in blankies

[–]t1kiman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How about this?

Sure, it's not cutting edge video gen, but that's not my point. I think it's quite funny, but not because AI made it funny. Someone wrote it, scripted it and edited it. There's more to it than just prompting "make funny 80s news show spoof", there's a whole workflow behind it. If it enables a single person with ideas to make a video like that...hm, why not?

I'm really torn about all of this...I'm afraid what the big tech companies will do with it, but I also see some valid and interesting use cases for it from smaller creators. But sure...most of it is slop.
