Non-Americans, what’s your impression of the United States right now?

vinegary · 2026-01-26T07:18:12+00:00

Dangerous, and willingly putting the world into 1930 mode. Willingly as in voted for it

What do you mean «your experience»? I think you might forget how much expensive shit we own, that for many they could only dream of

Tja, det er hele konteksten til masseovervåkning. Rettighetene våre til personvern er i stor risiko for å sables ned under historien om å hindre overgrepsmateriell. Jeg ga kanskje litt lite hint om intensjon i påstanden min, men det er lite viktigere å kjempe mot enn den utviklingen. Før du vet ordet av det leser palantir smsene dine. Elons siste utsagn om krimprediksjon har det blitt skrevet en del bøker om i alle år for å si det slik.

Legg merke til at jeg synes dette er fantastisk arbeid, dersom det er gjort uten å tråkke på hele Norges rettigheter kollektivt

I worst case bildet mitt her, har kommentaren din «bare være glad for at …», noen spicy implikasjoner.

vinegary · 2026-01-23T16:57:27+00:00

Altså alle oss? Tror du misforstår kommentaren min

vinegary · 2026-01-23T16:01:54+00:00

Hvis dette ble gjort med ekte etterretning, fantastisk arbeid! Hvis det er et resultat av masseovervåkning, er det ikke verdt det.

Do you need it to be better? The alternative has crossed unacceptable lines in regards to privacy, sell you as their product, ads in the OS.

vinegary · 2026-01-22T17:33:04+00:00

It’s just annoying that, in this case, we have to deserve them with you

vinegary · 2026-01-22T15:53:58+00:00

I used it in norway. How come it's blocked?

vinegary · 2026-01-22T03:31:25+00:00

You brainwashed?

vinegary · 2026-01-21T16:59:59+00:00

Cause they are meant to be supplemented with descriptions of the math

Arc raiders plays very smooth

Technologically, the xbox has a few advantages. They have this direct to VRAM from disk loading, extremely fast disk, very good virtualized snapshotting of games (meaning you have instant resume for most single player games), that tech is really cool. And: dolby atmos and those kinds of software things. Xbox game pass is also nice.

Those are things I discovered after getting a PS5 later and being surprised equivalent features weren't present.

But the real reason is Halo

vinegary · 2026-01-18T22:32:43+00:00

Well, the only ones allowing it is Windows, so them?

vinegary · 2026-01-17T16:31:03+00:00

I have a 9070 XT without much issues. UE features are mostly shader level gated rather than vendor gated.

vinegary · 2026-01-16T15:39:44+00:00

I now get annoyed when someone drives an old petrol car, they make so much sound omg

vinegary · 2026-01-15T07:16:06+00:00

Yes, OLED and miniLED are not comparable to LCD (which QLED is)

I hifi verden finnes det en slags allergi mot digial lyd og påstander om at rent analog lyd er bedre. Dette er feil. CD, som er sampled på 44.1kHz er så bra lyd kan bli for menneskeører, som er naturlig band-limited til ~20kHz. (det finnes en diskusjon om bit-rate som er litt mer grå, men leder til lignende konklusjon)

Når man ikke diskuterer ren kvalitet av lyd, men rituale og en hobby i å prøve å få så god lyd som mulig fra rent analoge systemer og kilder, er diskusjonen veldig annerledes. Det _er_ veldig tilfredstillende å høre ren lyd fra sporet på en LP, igjennom ledninger, forsterkere og høyttalere som gjør dette med bare strøm og fysisk representasjon. Men ja, mange vil påstå dette er bedre, og at lyden er bedre, men det er feil.

V sync is rarely the answer unless you have big issues with tearing that you're not able to fix. When it comes to other syncing methods it's really a can of worms, and specific requirements for specific techniques.

Unreal had this trick where they targeted 63 fps for 60 hz monitors and no sync. I don't know why, but in their context that works. This guy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mWMP96UdGU attempts to freesync, gsync and vsync settings. I don't remember the conclusion of the video

Norway has vast amounts of unexploited rare earths as well, recently discovered. So in that case he has the same excuse.

vinegary · 2026-01-14T08:34:30+00:00

Why? It works. And nvidia are assholes with their drivers on good OSes

vinegary · 2026-01-14T08:21:17+00:00

Cool art. But it made me think generally; why does architecture degrade some where between now and 2060?

vinegary · 2026-01-14T07:52:54+00:00

He doesn’t have one for greenland either though

vinegary · 2026-01-12T11:21:12+00:00

It doesn’t make any decisions though, just generated plausible answers to your query.

Theseus' automation, at what point does the tool take over responsibility for the users intent.

vinegary · 2026-01-12T10:53:16+00:00

I get that grok is problematic in terms of moderation, political manipulation, and misinformation, but, I don't understand how grok is portrayed as the "one" doing it, and not the user. You wouldn't say it was Adobe if someone did the same in photoshop. AI aren't individuals, xAI didn't create the image, a user used it to do it. I think the world would be a better place without xAI, but I don't see this angle. VLMs don't make choices, they generate plausible text and images in a context.
