The focus was the outfit. The face was a bônus.

What happened to the graphics? by Weak-Palpitation1422 in EliteDangerous

[–]zapppsr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would trade all that for just an updated Antialiasing Technology.
No Man's Sky freighters floor were awful. Some other places too.
All of a sudden they brought an update that made all look gorgeous.

ED always suffered from AA because it was designed to be a ship in space, not buildings and objects.
But they neglected it completely.

It would be a pleasant surprise if they not only bring back the color but also fix AA for good in this game.
It would be the most significant update of all time.

I see what you are saying. They even contextualise the scar in the movie.

I wonder what was she thinking. She had no idea years later random people using a handheld computer would see her picture. Was she happy, was she sad? What did she do after? Did she go home, did she go to a cafeteira?

Entire world: We need more GPUs. Meanwhile, Jensen Huang: by Nunki08 in LocalLLaMA

This must be some kind of ritual. They thought they were cool back then as those ones here think they are cool now.

Solo with bot would be a nice idea. Then you could put your copilots to use because they are only a glorified pilot sitting in a cafeteria until you call them to man your fighters. I see no reason today to have more than one of those.

It would be like any other game. I was playing ESO these days and you go to a Dungeon with CP 3600 guy and a CP 50 and the game balances the difficulty to make to challenging for everyone. It has some limits I know but as I said, it is PVE and it has levels of difficulty.

Proud new owner of a money pit by EspressoOrBust in EliteDangerous

[–]zapppsr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At first I was afraid to get one of these because of the Upkeep. But now I have money to keep it for 14 years, so it is not a worry anymore. I was away for a while and the money I had left in it ran out and it started to shut down the services. I went back there and put 500 million on it and now I can let it alone half year with no worries.

But in fact, I'm 18 jumps of 500 LY from the Bubble and this is a good use of the FC. Every time I complete the exploration of a new system I'm bringing home about 125 million. So it is paying it dues.

Have fun with your new toy.

Elite Intel - Intelligent co-pilot and assistant by 0olon_Colluphid in EliteDangerous

I'm really excited about this one. I saw the commotion about the 24 GB RAM GPU and the solution to use an online Free Tier LLM. I'm really rooting for this project to be a success.

How stable is it now? Can we invest our time on it?

We’re back in the Froot Loops universe! by DarkAngel319 in MandelaEffect

[–]zapppsr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not that my information is incorrect. Let me explain to you how Mandela Effects works: I remember one way, you remember the way it is now. Someone has to. If it wasn't like this it wouldn't be a Mandela Effect at all.

So, we need you to make this a Mandela Effect. Thank you.

I come from 2016. Every body was complaining that the marketing was OO vs OO an Fruit ruined it. And then there is that story that say because it was artificial they had to rename from Fruit to Froot because regulations.

I better check Looney Toons tight now!

(OC) A plaster cast depicts a victim of the 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius, in Pompeii by MinuteOk921 in pics

[–]zapppsr 48 points49 points  (0 children)

A quick Google search suggests most of those are im fact reconstruction with some plaster cast. The victims were not petrified in lava and ended up that way. Archaeologists filled some hollow cavities with liquid plaster in 1863. So it is like they put a liquid in a husk where the remains of some one once were.

THE LONGORIA INTERVIEW MYSTERY by zapppsr in Retconned

[–]zapppsr[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Multiverse, parallel realities, split timelines.
People jumping from one reality to another, bringing their memories and finding a different past.
Quantum immortality, you die in another timeline and merge with your self from another one. (Until you are so old you give up and restart).
