I should say that that’s a fairly recent news article talking about the next FSR in development.

As to if we need it … I don’t know, we certainly managed a long time without AI everything!

I hate to say it, but FSR4 is AI powered https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/gpus/amd-plans-for-fsr4-to-be-fully-ai-based-designed-to-improve-quality-and-maximize-power-efficiency

What are these endless calls for funding? Do people only vote if they are saturated with adverts?

All valid points, and I didn’t realise the differences in outcomes based on the various counting methods!

That would be complex to explain to many people I’m sure. However, and I’m possibly biased here, there’s a whole bunch of systems I don’t fully understand (car engines, encryption methods, football tournament knock out rules) but I know they work and tend to accept them and at least understand their limitations and outcomes.

I can totally see how people would reject things they don’t understand, and could be easily pushed in to rejecting a new system.

Also I agree that winning an election based on the change could be hard, and perhaps attempting to introduce this change later would work. Though I’m not sure the big parties (labour and conservatives in UK) really want to change a system that works for them!

I have no personal experience of explaining ranked choice.

I can imagine calculating ranked choice vote outcomes is probably pretty labour intensive (without computers).

However people generally understand the concept of how someone comes 1st, 2nd, or 3rd in a race, and I’m sure most people have thought about a ranked list of their favourite movies or football players, so it’s not some completely alien concept.

Instead of just choosing who you want to win, you fill out the ballot saying who is your first choice, second choice, or third choice (or more as needed) for each position. https://time.com/5718941/ranked-choice-voting/

That seems pretty simple to me, unless I’m missing something?

And finally whole bunch of countries manage this without any issues …

Internationally, it is used by voters in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Malta, Northern Ireland and Scotland. https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/politics/what-is-ranked-choice-voting-and-where-is-the-system-used/2638554/

Coming from a two party country (UK) the only real issue I see is the fragmenting of power and subsequent need to form endless alliances in parliament. (If I voted for the Greens but the Greens need the the votes of another party and end up doing deals is that really representing my vote…)

Just can’t trust anyone these days…

And don’t forget to update us on the outcome!

Gaming chairs are a great example; you can often find the same exact chairs for hundreds of dollars cheaper by getting them as an office chair

One could say the overpriced gaming chair with some fancy colours contradicts the “get what you pay for rule”.

I was trying to make a joke about the character model looking like it had fallen through the floor.

I’m not sure he’s digging a hole when he seems to be stuck up to his chest! 😂

I didn’t even know this was a thing!

Yes, these precipts seem to be common in the TV industry

Ms Jefferies stresses the guidelines are not trying to put boundaries on storytelling … She says - and “these guidelines are just to bring it even more in line with the best practices in the film and TV industry”.

And I can’t think of news stories that show this is a problem in terms of leaking a story.

So, why not have the same degree of safety and protocols in game development?

Fair enough, I don’t know who, can do what in this scenario.

Edit with a silly comment but I’m not too sure how much a corpse will respond to rough treatment

Apprenticeships… Probs will not be a popular comment, but there’s an argument for learning on the job, if the apprentice and teacher are both at the right level, it’s safe etc.

[Edit] In this scenario it seems it was not the best choice as the teacher should have worn their hearing aid, but the practice of delegating tasks is not a bad thing in general, imho.

Thanks, my next question was about the site! I’ve used custom CSS rules to remove the useless sidebars on stackoverflow, but never thought to change the appearance!

I’ll have to look into it and the letterboxing.

What browser is that on the right?

Mission successful? … he infiltrated pretty darn deep

Ackshually, Zealand isn’t really Old Zealand because New Zealand is named after Zeeland, only the spelling has changed over time.

Relation to New Zealand The island nation of New Zealand has no etymological relations to Zealand. New Zealand is named after the Dutch province of Zeeland, which is sometimes referred to as and/or anglicized to Zealand, but is not to be confused with the Danish island.

I thought it was the Netherlands https://www.britannica.com/story/where-is-old-zealand

Yep, I have this issue too.
