  • The ancient Greeks or Chinese should have already had words for this.

  • Riiight, but like, I can make some shit up about a fancy ass apple "The surface is mostly red, mottled with large swaths of not yet ripe green and yellow patches. It's waxed, shiny skin reflects rays of a nearby lightsource behind me. There's a slight bumpiness to it, almost like goosebumps, but not as pronounced, with darker spots at the apex of each peak. My mouth is watering."

    Meanwhile, if I try to picture an apple I actually don't see shit because I have aphantasia, so...

    Not everyone is like you.

  • Either that or aphantasia, a well documented phenomena, is a thing.

  • A lot of the online tests start with a negative offset to account for ping.

    They absolutely do not do this. Where are you getting this from? These tests runs fully within your local browser; there is no ping. Whatever it shows you is what it is. There will always be added latency due to your setup (computer, mouse, monitor, etc), but it should be fairly negligible. Perhaps some crappy tests incorporate a blanket offset for this reason?

    I just made my own very simple reaction tester web app running 100% locally and I get the exact same results as Human Benchmark.

  • Perhaps there were delays induced by your testing setup? Different output, different input methods (mouse click vs button press vs tap, etc), and different computers can all influence the results. I regularly hover around 150-175ms, depending on the day, with pretty much any reaction time test and computer setup I've tried, however.

    Edit: I just made my own extremely simple reaction time test to account for potential test weirdness, same result:

  • Of course a test like this does not compensate for all variables. Every piece of the chain is going to have an effect, from mouse, to your specific computer hardware, operating system, all the way to your display output.

    That said, I think your delta of 30ms was just variance that would be reduced by averaging several results. The maximum added latency by using 60hz is 16.66ms, while the maximum average for 75hz is 13.33ms, a far cry from the 30ms you experienced.

    Even 240hz, like my monitor, is 4.16ms, which can induce a maximum difference of 12.5ms compared to someone on 60hz in the worst case scenario.

  • Arc Raiders has been pretty fun imo. There's a ton of room for outsmarting your opponents, or even just diplomacy in some cases.

    Just last night, I was paying in a group of three, my two teammates were up ahead with me lagging behind. Another group suprise attacked us from on top of a huge concrete wall with massive high ground advantage, firing on my teammates whom had little more cover than sparse trees. This group hadn't seen me yet, so I told my friends to keep them occupied while I flank. I found a strong position to their side where they had no cover from me, but I had cover from them, lobbed a couple grenades and opened fire. It caused them to scatter in a panic, trying to find cover from both me and my teammates, and we absolutely slaughtered them. Felt incredible. Damned shoot on sight bastards lol.

    Also, runs can be an absolute maximum of 30 minutes, but usually shorter, so good for people with actual lives to live.

  • Even if I do occasional turn to AI for some things, I absolutely do not want it to be integrated into my personal computer. The privacy implications are insane.

    I'm glad I made the switch to Linux months ago with my Windows install being relegated to a lil sandboxed VM I occasionally use for the odd Excel task here and there.

  • Msg is naturally occurs in most protein rich foods. While extremely important for our bodies, our tongues actually don't detect protein directly, but the msg that occurs with it. That's why your brain goes "ooooo yummy!" but in a different way from salt.
