filister,

The only reason why other game studios are opening offices in Poland is because CDPR had created and cultivated the human talent of many game Devs in the country, plus Polish workers should be a lot cheaper compared to West Europe and the US.

filister,

This should be put in the Uplifting news sub, as it is a sign that still there are independent investigations and people are held accountable no matter how powerful they are.

filister,

It is not only PR. This will restrict considerably the ability of Netanyahu and Gallant to travel abroad. Because every country that is members of the ICC should theoretically arrest them on arrival and would not allow their planes to fly over their territories.

Israel and the US are not signatories and they don’t recognise those rulings, guess why. Because both countries are acting with such a sense of impunity that it is absolutely disgusting, when they think they are above the law and those laws don’t apply to them.

filister,

I am very much interested

filister,

The article has some valid points though, one being that GPUs are obscenely expensive, like it is not normal in my eyes a single mid range GPU to cost more than a console. And mind you this GPU is not even future proof because NVIDIA for example didn’t want to put more VRAM.

Plus a lot of game studios are trying to push micro transactions and other bullshit into games, and turn the whole gaming industry into pay to win and gaming as a service.

Of course there are plenty of decent game studios that actually generate great games, but the majority of those big studios are concentrated on how to maximize their profit and disregard the will of their customers.

filister,

Are we talking the same 4060, that can’t beat 3060Ti? That’s an absolute disgrace if you ask me, and should have been called 4050Ti at most, if not 4050. Or the fact that 3060 had 12GB of VRAM, while 4060 had 8Gb. NVIDIA bumped all their lineup with one tier up, in order to make their current offering look a bit better compared to last gen.

Or are we talking about the fact that NVIDIA made a whole lineup of unworthy GPUs except 4090.

You need to shed 850-900 bucks to get a 4070Ti Super that has 16Gb of VRAM, in a year when RAM is dirt cheap. And the mid range is priced as high end.

Is that okay in your books? Because in my books, it is definitely not!

filister,

Frigate or Bluetooth I guess

filister,

Apple is gonna apple

filister,

Thank goodness America doesn’t spy on everyone… /s

filister,

I also have 3440x1440 curved at home and flat at work. My personal recommendation is to get a curved one. But if I have to shop now for a monitor, I will simply get a 4K flat. 32-34 inches. The lost vertical space is a real deal breaker for me and it annoys me.

Ultra wide are nice for example for audio/video editing, where you want to visualise the timeline, but majority of tasks you would do, including gaming on them are better on a standard 16:9 monitors.

filister, (edited )

What makes you think that they are not scraping Lemmy too? The only reason they might not be is probably how niche Lemmy and the fediverse are, but I am sure there have been people already doing it.

filister,

The same way Israel is solving hunger with AI in Gaza.

Stalin once said, “Net cheloveka, net problemy” (“No person, no problem”).

filister, (edited )

You do realise that if Israel wanted they could have flooded Gaza with humanitarian aid, and all those equilibristics with air drops and floating piers would not have been needed, right?

This is in a way like an open admission for the US that their closest Middle East Ally is using hunger as a weapon of war and they are trying to appear the good guys, while sending even more weapons to Israel to “defend” themselves.

filister,

I am all about giving people the possibility to put an end to their lives and there are plenty of people who are living almost unbearable lives, full of pain and suffering. And I know it is wrong to judge people without being in their shoes but, part of me is refusing to accept that a person who is apparently, young and physically healthy and in a relationship where the other partner obviously cares about her is so depressive and miserable that she wants to die.

So I have mixed feelings in this particular case and I feel sorry for her family and partner, who I am sure really wanted her to get better.

Nevertheless, I am happy that there are still doctors who are willing to take such cases because I can imagine how hard and psychologically challenging it would be to work with those people and they have my full respect.

filister,

It will be fought with AI.

Israel gave us already a short glimpse of what’s to come. Unmanned drones, with cameras, targeting civilians and killing them without any human intervention, where the execution order is given by the AI. AI spreading disinformation, and flooding public forums with negative opinions about their adversaries.

Whoever has the most money and the most advanced technology will rule over the poorer and less technologically advanced nations.

It is a bleak reality/future.

filister,

Hahaha, so instead of reducing their emissions, they are actually increasing them year after year. What a hypocrisy!

filister,

That’s a very strange title, I think in the end the US would suffer more, because China would be able to easily replace this talent, but the same cannot be said for the US.

filister,

Do not forget their so-called open document format (OOXML), which is everything but open, and their deliberate efforts to suffocate the competition, by abusing their market position.

filister,

Please remind me, weren’t there a couple of Israeli politicians calling Palestinians human animals and asking to drop nuclear bombs on top of them.

Or weren’t some far right looting trucks full of humanitarian aid for famine ridden Gaza.

I can definitely continue this list or you can do yourself a favour by reading some Wikipedia page on the subject, and while at it you can also check (pick a random non affiliated with Israel human rights organisation) think of Israel’s treatment of Palestinians.

filister, (edited )

I think that boat is gone now with Bernie being so old. But yes, you could have elected him and have one guy who genuinely cares about people. But I guess money is before people.

Kind of sad, isn’t it?

filister, (edited )

While literally creating a second Nakba. Seriously I would love all those far right or even Israeli politicians to live 1 month the life of a regular Palestinian, be it in the West Bank or Gaza. Just one month!

And then they are surprised that Palestinians don’t like them and are getting radicalized. Hmmm I wonder why…

filister,

This AI craze propped a lot of companies to new historical highs. It is of course logical that most companies would like to jump on that bandwagon.

Right now we are on the honeymoon period of AI and I can only guess we are fast approaching the limits of what the AI can do.

filister,

I am waiting for a 4K monitor at least 120fps, that has proper DP 2.1 support. It is ridiculous that even today most of those monitors are coming with DP 1.4.

filister, (edited )

The DP1.4a supports maximum 4K at 120fps, everything above that is using DSC (display stream compression).and if I am not wrong adds a bit of latency and a bit of processing overhead, because your GPU has to compress the frames. Additionally the compression adds some loss to the equation, but according to reports it is very hard to distinguish it from the lossless picture.

It is not a big deal but it is nice to have support for DpP2.1. DP2.1 has more than double the bandwidth of DP1.4a, meaning that it supports 4K 240fps, introduces FEC (forward error correction) and improves the HDR quality.

The bottom line is that if I shed north of 1K I would like to get something which is future proof.

filister,

Yes, I am aware of that limitation, but hopefully the new gen will have fully featured support for it.
