That point is definitely an error. Apart from how weird and unnecessary a flight-path it would be, the southward leg of it would require the plane to do about Mach 6 to make the timestamps work

OP, can you edit the title to clarify that this is HRW addressing Hungary and not a statement by Hungary? There are already people misunderstanding in here because they haven’t opened the link

Because the grains of corundum are so small, less than 0.2 millimetres across, it was impossible to tell in images whether they are rubies or sapphires and what they might look like to the human eye.

“I would love to be able to pick one of those up and analyse it and see if it looks red – it’s pretty disappointing that all you can see is this white pebble,” said Ollila. But when hit with the SuperCam laser, they shone brightly.

Too small, unfortunately

I do think there is a real possibility to do something interesting with that idea - Hellblade could probably use it well - but seeing it marketed for stuff like the Elder Scrolls and Fifa is way off from that

Likewise

That’s ok, I can paste what you were trying to compare here

Are you trying to say that the because the frames have differently-shaped facial features, my argument that the filter changed the shapes of facial features is wrong? If not, what are you saying?

I’m not seeing the relevance of your new video.

To show that even at the lower resolution, the eyes and lips are still changing shape

I’m not talking about texturing details or lighting. I’m talking about her eyes and lips being different shapes and sizes.

Your images are coming from different frames

I mean, they’re the images that Nvidia chose to present as the comparison, but watching the video I do not see her eyes and lips growing like that in the idle animation

Imgur isn’t available in the UK, I’m afraid

With all due respect, I don’t think this shows what you think it shows. Here is that exact video downloaded, zoomed in, and brightened to clarify it: https://streamable.com/hpxx37

Smooth fades with the brightness upped for visibility: left eye, right eye, lips

Here are the source images for you: DLSS off and DLSS on

Streamable is just a video uploading site, you can put any video file on there for free (though it will be deleted after a while). I used OBS to screen-record, it’s free and fairly simple

I don’t think that’s entirely the case. It might be part of what’s going on, but it’s definitely not everything, because actual shapes are changing https://streamable.com/pzap7c

but if you say, place it around a fixed reference, it is clear they remain the same size.

Here’s a screen recording of me doing exactly that and getting results that do not match what you’re saying

Without wishing to weigh in on this specific case right now, I think we have to recognise that votes don’t work for all instances of this because way too many people do not read the article. An outlet can publish an incendiary headline and then people that agree with it upvote it without ever noticing that the article doesn’t actually back it up

I’d suggest taking a look at the comparisons on Nvidia’s website, because it really makes it obvious how much this is changing things https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/dlss5-breakthrough-in-visual-fidelity-for-games/

If we look at the one that’s in the article thumbnail, the blonde woman in Resident Evil, you can see it has made significant changes to her face: her eyes are bigger and the outside corners of them have been moved up, and her lips are much fuller

Edit: also it straight up changes the skin colour of the black football player in an orange shirt, and that’s presumably meant to be a representation of a specific real person. It’s not even a lighting change either, because the shirt is the exact same colour. It’s only his skin that changes

Upscaling is supposed to look like the same thing at a higher resolution, whereas this is specifically making a point about looking different

Shouldn’t it look the same? I thought the point of upscaling was to reduce the hardware demands of outputting something at a given resolution. This isn’t upscaling, it’s a social media filter

I’m so glad that the GDP of a medium-sized country has gone into turning up the contrast on some videogames a little bit

Scotland has indeed had a lot of problems with drinking too much. Still does, but there have been major improvements. When the laws that brought in the 10am - 10pm limit were introduced in 2005, Scotland was seeing roughly 2.5 times as many alcohol-specific deaths per capita as the UK as a whole and almost twice as many as Northern Ireland, the second-worst for it. And that’s the UK, a country with a notoriously unhealthy drinking culture in the first place. Scotland remains clearly the worst in the UK, but the gap has narrowed to more like 150-200% instead of 250%. A few things to note:

• The 2005 law brought in many changes on the recommendation of a 2003 report, so effects can’t be isolated to the limited hours alone. Promotional deals on alcohol were severely restricted, as an example
• Further changes have been made since to introduce things like a minimum price per unit of pure alcohol
• Scotland’s alcohol problem hits the poorest hardest, but is certainly not exclusive to the poorest or to the homeless. The laws were not specifically aiming to reduce alcohol consumption among the homeless in particular

As I understand it, the reasoning was basically to minimise how often people would be buying more alcohol while already drunk. I think that this is probably a sensible move. I definitely enjoy alcohol, and I can recognise that it’s much easier to make poor decisions about how much to drink when you’ve already had a few

It’s definitely not a magic bullet, of course. Nothing ever will be. But yeah, I do think it can help

Separately, it is so engrained in me that I feel deeply uncomfortable buying drinks in a supermarket late at night in other parts of the UK

It’s not a game, it’s an archive of games

This kind of interoperability is really useful for getting people to switch over. The only reason to use these apps is to talk to other people, so the network effect has a heavy hand on people’s decisions

Madness. It’s still a month before there’s even a chance that Orban gets voted out. The EU needs to come down hard on this

There are others way to achieve those end goals, though. Mutually exclusive paths are usually going to feel much better than some unforeseeable bullshit
