I mean even generative AI would put out a sentence that made better sense that that. That was just a mishmash of words that made no actual point and lead nowhere and it honestly it hurt my brain trying to understand it.

I mean moving goal posts? Just WTF? The goal post has always been DLSS 5 is horrible AI bullshit that tramples artistic intent and this guy had to have at least skimmed the article and saw that this is what these developers were saying.

Sorry, not to ramble but damn, this post just broke my brain since I was coming off of doing a logical task and couldn’t deal with something so illogical all of the sudden.

That is 5% owned by Nvidia.

WTF are you even talking about? Sit down Billy, I award you no points.

I guess Whiskey Leaks intelligence got it wrong when Chat GPT said that all Iranian soldiers had their eyes replaced with radars.

Unless you have a professional range with a wok burner, you’re not getting shit with a consumer gas range man. Even when I had a gas range, I always used the gas burner outside because the gas stove is crap for that.

Moved from a gas range to induction and kept my gas burner outside for all the “I need flame” needs but I’m pretty privileged that I an have an outside setup. Honestly, I won’t move back to a gas range after using the induction, I find it so much better for daily cooking with the quick heat up time and cleaning.

Fetterman.

And true to form, Democrats are too spinless to kick him out.

It’s not that they’re going to force it, It’s just a numbers game. Right now because of AMD’s complete and utter incompetence in all aspects of the GPU market, Nvidia controls 95% of the market.

Developers are going to support the biggest bang for the buck here and implement DLSS 5, AI Slop because that’s what the market has and publishers are going to make them leverage all of DLSS 5 because shareholder value and doing more with less people.

End result, I agree though, is the same though, none of this shit will be optional, but for different reasons I think.

Unfortunately social media users who post are not the average gamer and that’s very apparent when 95% of the discrete GPU market is Nvidia now.

Plus doesn’t help the only other two competitors is AMD who are also jumping on the AI bandwagon and doing not actively competing. Then there’s Intel that’s in bed with Nvidia now.

War as a Service.

I wonder when they’re going to drop in loot boxes.

I think when it was presented over a decade ago now when the claim was that DLSS/FSR was there to give more life into older video cards that was a good thing.

What it’s morphed to, where it’s a mandatory crutch and now with AI Slop, I do think it’s a crap thing.

I appreciate the more in-depth discussion and admitting they should have waited, still don’t agree they should have taken audience and developer reaction into account, your opinion is your opinion and is valid if you think it’s great they should and did say it. Honestly I’m still going to be more, maybe wary, of DF’s future output, I’ll still enjoy their technical performance breakdown but it’ll be shaded a bit going forward.

But onwards, so something they kind of hit on about the intent of the scene that they didn’t cover because everyone is focused on the face but something that instantly stood out to me is just about the background. He’s talking about the mood of the character about how she’s nervous and not wanting to go there, well the background and lighting also contributes to that in subtle but I think very important ways too.

The original it’s dark, it’s foggy, rainy, with the darkness prevailing over the light, with the gloom of the day is reflecting the mood of the character. The DLSS 5, it’s bright and shiny like it’s just a slightly damp day and the light is going to overcome the darkness at any minute. That to me stood out just as much as the OFication of the character.

Which is also now 5% Nvidia!

We’re fucked aren’t we?

Wow, that’s an even longer way, even more so than the CEO defending his AI Slop, actually slightly impressive in a corporate sub way, to say AI Slop.

Considering that DLSS and DLAA are, and I would image that the FSR equivalents are too, separate processes so they could drop DLSS and just concentrate on DLAA. But that’s not where the money and ray tracing is, and part of that is also on gamers in general since there’s always such a focus on FPS, something that even I’m guilty of, and not visual quality.

Just a reminder that AMD is also just another money hungry corporation that would sell gamers out to AI. Don’t forget that AMD just put a 20% stake of their company and output in a AI partnership with Meta.

That said, I also bought a 9070 XT a year ago because I didn’t want to directly support Nvidia and their never ending quest to force AI into games, which this kind of at least provided some justification for that as I don’t support AI Only Fans being injected into my games. Steam already has enough of those types of games without direct AI injection.

Right now I’m just getting discourse to run via docker compose. I have that up and running finally and got to the splash screen locally but of course it needs a domain so I’m working on that route while my reverse proxy is throwing a fit.

I haven’t gotten to the plugin yet but just reading up on the git documentation it sounded like running it in a docker compose isn’t officially supported so I was just posting to see if maybe someone had has some experience and could offer up some pointers before I bang my head against a wall this weekend.

None of this is done for the average consumer/gamer. We’re not the consumers he’s addressing.

Oh, he’s very in touch.

With the AI money machine that keeps on printing money and that’s all that matters this and any other CEO in today’s world.
