We change constantly. Not sure what happens tomorrow and the past is something we learn from.

  • Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors

    Jump

  • @networkswitch @JackhammerJoe even authoritarian states doesn't like dependencies which can tell them what they have to do. So those companies are a risk for their independence... my personal feeling europe's right people might not like porn but they probably would rather fight for porn then let a none european company tell them how they have to handle business ;)

  • Linux Distros for Gaming: CachyOS is Taking over (ProtonDB data)

    Jump

  • @dataprolet @AbnormalHumanBeing The huge difference is the reaction time of interactive elements (aka the close to realttime behavior). This is all mostly because of the BORE Scheduler .. installing a cachy os bore kernel on a default arch feels nearly the same.

    So Wayland + Bore Scheduler it's really feeling crazy good. I would not even want to move back to X11 cause damm it feels "slugish" compared.

  • Adblockers stop publishers serving ads to (or even seeing) 1bn web users - Press Gazette

  • @DarkSideOfTheMoon @1984 and all this additional JavaScript and Elements and makes the side's just horrible slow. Compare this with CSS+HTML only sides omg how good they can feel ... I also prefer nowadays text mode browsers again, cause a good readable font + focus on what is important ... the content itself. I really get pissed if websites with public content can't be run anymore without javascript (wtf is up with you guys ?) ....

  • Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss - Closest modern equivalent?

    Jump

  • @Alaknar i didn't notice that there wasn't an update. I think in a way the project was finished , cause as far as i remember you could play the game from the start to the finish.

  • Ntsync x Fsync on Wayland - 5 games comparison

    Jump

  • @Coelacanthus @bargu isn't protons fallback esync if winesync isn't available ? Wasn't it esync - winesync (fastsync) - ntsync ?

  • Ntsync x Fsync on Wayland - 5 games comparison

    Jump

  • @CoyoteFacts @bargu the biggest issue ... some distributions (cachyos for example) have such a new kernel which doesn't support fsync ( winesync ) and you want to use the newest kernel for modern amd gpu's ( eg.: 9070 xt) so downgrade to 6.11 ( last kernel with winesync ) is not a good choice.

  • @FreedomAdvocate This is my last answer.

    Anti Consumer = working against the Consumer ...

    https://www.reuters.com/technology/nvidia-faces-us-doj-probe-over-complaints-rivals-information-reports-2024-08-02/

    ^^^ if you define NVidias Consumer as business

    If you define NVidia Consumers as common people wanting a gamer gpu than you can keep believing that they try to do all those things to make you the cheapest and best offer and keep buying them.

    I am not going to stop you! Since you don't know me and you don't know my experience and past with nvidia and seem not want to accept my standpoint - i am not going to force it on you. But i want to ask you to refer from calling something "most stupid" just because you aren't sharing the other opinion...

  • @FreedomAdvocate there is a reason why WINE = Wine is not (a) Emulator is used. So don't call a api reimplementation a emulation specially since other api reimplementation have shown to be better than the original implementation from the hardware provider ( example dxvk on amd the original amd dx implementation ) . But this gets us far from the original topics , my point was if nvidia wanted to have real competition they would have included all those new fance features into official api's like for example DX or Vulkan or any other.

    They didn't ... and while not directly against the consumer it is against the consumer end.So i have brought up another point why i call nvidia anti consumer ... neither you like it or not.

  • @FreedomAdvocate what is more shady a reviewer who doesn't follow nda's or the company who makes nda's ... you can decide yourself i have made my decission and we have since then got far away from what it was.. Is NVIDIA anti consumer ... yes on multiple levels ... you can disagree but i have enough resons to say so

  • @FreedomAdvocate so you didn't read the heise link which showed you that pre release tests had strict rules on how to test including framegen settings ...

  • @FreedomAdvocate ... this question is totally unimportant for the fact that their current behaivior is not very consumer friendly or harder expressed anti consumer.

    Second cuda is not hardware dependend ;) https://github.com/vosen/ZLUDA/tree/master | https://www.xda-developers.com/nvidia-cuda-amd-zluda/

    "Imagine a world where noone needed a brand specific addition to have modern features" ... oh those ideas exist since centuries ( DX / OpenGL / Vulkan .... ) ... now ask yourself why nvidia always tries to operate outside of those api's ?

    ....

  • @FreedomAdvocate you remember the time when AMD was called out for even the smallest of difference from a default render ? Now since nvidia basically use some kind of statistic guessing method - Noone is allowed to call them out ?I call them out cause basically they removed the possibility for any consumer to compare other graphics card with themself. Or did i miss nvidia making dlss / frametime generation and all the features available on other gpu brands ?Do you know AI Models behind all this and how they would perform on other hardware ? Do we want to talk about how they try to force media to have access to tests ? Yes imho there is alot anti consumer here ...

  • @RazgrizOne @FreedomAdvocate the reason why i decided for AMD after being nearly all my life team green ( aka 20 years ) , i feel like AI Frame Generation and Upscalling are anti consumer cause the hide the real performance behind none reproducable image generation. And if you look correctly ... this is how nvidia has a performance lead over AMD.

  • Old gamers don't understand what mobile gaming has become

    Jump

  • @ScreenShatter @atomicpoet Imho everyone who talks about quality in games should define how they define quality ;) I for example value story and game mechanics over graphics and usability perfection. So Balatro / Knights of the Pen and Paper or alot of the Square Enix Classic Releases on Android still are high quality games for me. My advice would be before you argue you start to define what quality means. After this you can much better measure and argue.

  • @kandoh @simple i would rather say they are aiming for full control over the product ;) How dare you used a bug in our game to your advantage - we block your acces to the game and of course to continous rising prices , cause there is no second hand deals ... let's hope that steam and gog will be really long available an people still buy games even it's much more expensive already ...

    Question ... did someone once do a study comparing a regular fulltext indexed based search vs ai in terms of energy consumption ;)

    Second ... if people would keep using "old" tech - wouldn't that be better for employment of people and therefor for social stability on this planet ?
