Threads will be implementing federation in the near future and many instances have been discussing whether they should be pre-emptively defederated to protect the fediverse. See below for our local discussion thread, which will remain active until this vote is complete....
A wedding photographer offers their services to everyone having weddings. If that photographer refuses to photograph same-sex weddings, is that not the same as denying service to someone over their sexuality?
If there was ever a game that deserved DLSS or FSR, it’s Halo Infinite. The TAA is garbage and the ray tracing isn’t worth using with the current performance hit. I don’t understand why it isn’t in the game yet.
Unrelated, did anyone else have horrible frame pacing until around season 3? The game didn’t play nice with my VRR display
Has anyone with a camera ever deliberately wanted a lens to have chromatic aberration?
You said it yourself: these are creative tools people deliberately choose for stylistic reasons. I have a couple junk lenses I use specifically because they have chromatic aberration and other imperfections.
Photography, however, is a very different beast than video games. I will never use chromatic aberration or film grain in a game, despite enjoying those effects in photos.
For some reason, Larian shipped an old version of DLSS with the game. It looks better if you swap out the DLL for a newer one. I use DLAA on my 3070 TI and it looks good, but I did have to swap the DLL.
You can either use DLSS Swapper or manually download a new DLL and drop it in yourself. It’s essentially just replacing the nvngx.dll in the game’s directory with a new one.
There are some issues, though - for example, upgrading from a version prior to 2.5.1 will disable the use of the sharpness slider. I mitigate this by using DLSSTweaks to force preset C, which favors the newest frame more heavily.
Grand Theft Auto 6 has yet to be announced, but last year, we managed to get a glimpse at the sixth main entry in the series by Rockstar Games thanks to some leaked videos. While there's been nothing since, official or otherwise, some dedicated fans have provided something new on the highly anticipated game this week....
One that comes to mind is cutscenes. If something was initially designed with 16:9 in mind, expanding the FoV or aspect ratio could reveal parts of the image the devs don’t want the player to see. For example, using 120 FOV at 21:9 in Fallout 4 makes the edge of the camera clip through walls sometimes.
The solution is just designing it with ultrawide in mind. Ultrawide owners are a pretty small part of the gaming market overall, so it’s not surprising they don’t do it.
I don’t know why anyone would subscribe to google services at this point. It’s pretty much a given that whatever it is, it’ll close within a few years.
