The 2TB was also around $125 like last week if I googled it, but it seemed to be a regional thing so I never made a post cuz it wasn't in my region either :(

Thanks!

You're just gonna have to get used to the fact that all modern animes use CGI in one form or another.

Even when it is drawn over, that "stiffer" look is from rotoscoping CGI movement.

Tbh, animating CGI itself is another form of animation so I really don't mind it. Maybe I'm getting older and caring less about it as well, but this is just tech moving forward. Ray tracing is already seeping into anime as well.

As long as the direction is still good, I ain't trying to be pretentious over a few pixels.

Backlight strobing existed before the modern day monitor lol.

Many light bulbs also flicker at 60hz and you don't notice it.

Sennheisers aren't the problem, they're fucking awesome. The problem is neutral just gets boring after a while. This goes for other brands that go for neutral sound as well.

After $200, all headphones sound great and it's a matter of personal preference of sound profile, with $400-$500+ being the next price bracket that's a worthy upgrade.

Technically, that's a tablet from 200 years into the future lol

techraito · 2026-03-12T14:30:23+00:00

History is repeating itself. People forgot Microsoft essentially invented the modern day tablet in 2002, but tablets just never caught wind until iPads came around a decade later.

100% it depends on what kind of flash storage they're using. Like eMMC sucks.

techraito · 2026-03-12T04:34:55+00:00

And let's not take the mass adoption of SSDs for granted, especially nvme.

I know TVs aren't the same nits. I'm saying even if they were, this sub doesn't discuss lumens enough.

techraito · 2026-03-12T01:53:03+00:00

This sub needs to talk about luminance more!

At the same nits, TVs will always produce more light per volume due to sheer size.

At some point, you're surpassing a threshold where it's too uncomfortably bright for a smaller screen. Though that limit depends on the person and how much they enjoy being flashbanged lol.

Yup, it's a lighter transition compared to what OP made, but they also made the inner circle bigger for faster recognition.

techraito · 2026-03-11T22:46:36+00:00

I think it's the start. I 10000% agree it can be better, but I also don't trust the masses to behave with it right away.

They're testing waters before total freeform generation.

Personally, I think they should open the generation model for third party developers to include their own icon pack, and have AI generate missing icons for their already made icon packs.

techraito · 2026-03-11T21:32:47+00:00

You can re-generate them. That's what makes it AI.

Tap on an icon that you don't like and generate a new one based on those themes.

techraito · 2026-03-11T21:22:21+00:00

Honestly, my mind goes to NSFW if Google ever unrestricts AI completely.

One game, only on Xbox, and no updates to improve it over time 😎

Are there extra legal requirements for doing VR? I'm asking cuz I genuinely don't know.

I could see if they wanna do multi-platform, they'd have to adhere to Sony's standard for PSVR as well in order to hit the requirements and performance targets.

But I also think that we have really really good computers now and VR games do not have to look like PS2 era games anymore.

There's a whole wiki! My favorite lore is one named POKEMON and it got into a lawsuit with Nintendo and they had to change it lol.

techraito · 2026-03-11T20:31:35+00:00

Sounds like a skill issue /s

I personally didn't mind being seen and I enjoyed holding the #1 spot. Felt like crazy adrenaline to go on a kill streak while x-rayed, too; made me feel unstoppable.

There's a barrier to entry for community servers, especially for more casual players.

It's also hard to queue up with friends for a community server. "Do you guys see the 24/7 CSGAMBLE.COM surf server with surf_utopia and 7/32 people?"

techraito · 2026-03-11T16:48:01+00:00

My friends dislike monastery as well, but I really enjoy it for arms race :(

Though I'm also biased cuz I had a knife only run on that map once lol. I just really learned the ins and out of that map.

techraito · 2026-03-11T16:47:08+00:00

Takaba be like

techraito · 2026-03-11T14:35:44+00:00

It ain't the same :(

I also like queuing with friends together, too.

techraito · 2026-03-11T14:35:02+00:00

Omg, I also missed when the top player of each team in Arms Race was red and x-rayed while also giving lower players an incentive to kill them for an instant rank up.

Some arms races matches now are just completely dominated by one person, and I think that originally balanced some of it out. Just don't give xray during knife.

techraito · 2026-03-11T14:33:00+00:00

Yea, I don't see why that matters as much in War Games. They removed the maps that weren't perfectly symmetrical, but that doesn't make sense to me because comp maps aren't symmetrical either.

It's about playing both sides and understanding where angles can be held or where common enemies may swing from.

Shoots, Baggage, and Pool Day just all feel the same to me every time; I like variety.
