- Comment on Apple’s engineers carefully designing the last 60 Hz OLED screens on the planet 1 day ago:
Yes, because games usually synchronize with the monitor clock, and need several clock cycles to update their world model.
- Comment on Apple’s engineers carefully designing the last 60 Hz OLED screens on the planet 2 days ago:
Latency and lag mean exactly the same thing.
I’m not talking about frame lag. I’m talking about people synchronizing their entire system with the display clock and then complaining that they need a faster display because it takes 5 clock cycles to update their world model.
- Comment on Apple’s engineers carefully designing the last 60 Hz OLED screens on the planet 2 days ago:
VR has a lag problem, not a frame rate problem.
Basically every argument against low frame rate displays you can find have the form of “we linked responsibility to the display frame rate and now we have a lag problem! low frame hates are the Devil!”
- Comment on Apple’s engineers carefully designing the last 60 Hz OLED screens on the planet 2 days ago:
Hum… The minimum to make it feel like motion is something closer to 15 Hz.
I have no idea where people pulled the 24 Hz number from, but 60 Hz is clearly enough for everybody. Anyway, if you go inserting random noise you can disrupt the people’s perception at any frequency, the noise just needs enough total energy.

Priorities!
You can do the other options tomorrow…

- Comment on I will confess that I have obsessively watched merge requests on a daily basis 6 days ago:
Factorio allows you to transfer items between space stations now.
IDK if that’s the kind of thing the post is about, and there has certainly not been 5 years. Also, no time for Yay!, because I’m busy designing some space platform fabric…
- Comment on What's going on with PHP? 6 days ago:
Every language has bugs, every program has bugs.
Not like php, no.
- Comment on What's going on with PHP? 6 days ago:
Lots of people write web sites in rust.
I don’t think it’s a great choice. But it does beat php.
- Comment on What's going on with PHP? 6 days ago:
Because it works.
As evident from this week troubles, no it doesn’t.
- Comment on "You guys are stupid, they're gonna be looking for 256 bit security keys." 1 week ago:
Just to add. Those private keys are a 85 to 170 digits random number.
A very central company whose security the entire internet depends on picked 00000000000…0000004.
- Comment on php deez nutz 1 week ago:
That’s how you do passwords. The alternative you are looking for is keys, and the entire internet decided those are toxic and no user must be able to handle them (except for the ones that give monopoly over authentication to Apple and Google, a lot of people like those).
- Comment on Why DDG is the superior serch engine 1 week ago:
It converts into another imperial weight unity, and an international volume unity…
It didn’t ask for clarification if you are dealing with precious metals…
I’m not sure any system like that can really work for ounces. But well, that’s not bad.
- Comment on Why DDG is the superior serch engine 1 week ago:
Seems useful for those cases you don’t know what a furlong even measures.
I wonder how well it handles ounces.
- Comment on laughs in 12 hours, while still driving through texas 1 week ago:
On the other hand, they would need to learn 5 languages in case they need to ask for directions on that travel.
- Comment on Why when checking the IPV6 address of a typical linux installation there is usually 3 address? Why is there 3 and how do you figure out what each one is for? 2 weeks ago:
The scope tells you who can use that address to connect to you, and the ‘dynamic’ field tells you if your computer things it may change (it may not know enough).
Your computer has 2 global addresses.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Those orcas are aiming right at the correct place, with right the correct posture. IDK what is an expression of despair from a shark, but it could quite well be this.
Are you sure this isn’t a frame from a real video?
- Comment on Its all coming together 2 weeks ago:
Probably depends on what vial exactly it is.
- Comment on Awwwwww yiiiiiissssssss 2 weeks ago:
Yes, we have to ban algorithmic selected content just like we do for most other drugs.
- Comment on Don't forget the rules, lest you become like Them! 3 weeks ago:
Do not listen, do report if something that shouldn’t be alive is doing alive-stuff (just staring is ok, though), so stare at the stars often enough to notice if they start to move.
None of that disallows the stuff you want to do. Just be careful.
- Comment on Honestly surprising that we didn't develop this earlier /j 3 weeks ago:
We have B-trees at home!
- Comment on no one can understand AI 3 weeks ago:
That’s a common misconception. It is a complex multi-layer sequence of heavily biased Magic 8-balls.
- Comment on race to the bottom with no other participants 3 weeks ago:
It’s about slot machines. Came-on, it’s right there on the post.
Now excuse me, I have to try some 10 prompts on that great code generator right there, with some luck I’ll get some incredible delta to push into the repository.
- Comment on Tiddies are nice but the metric system is better 3 weeks ago:
I have to say, “da” is a bad prefix. Good thing nobody uses it.
- Comment on but what to soap with those beans ... 3 weeks ago:
Do people just collect photos of beans in any possible environment?
- Comment on Forget tiddies. Look at these boobies 3 weeks ago:
Those are boobies, not tits.
- Comment on Not real hits too 4 weeks ago:
And Guardians vol. 3, and some people really like Loki while other people really dislike Loki.
But I think that’s all.

It’s a tiny group, that is mostly inside the US’s government buildings.

It looks quite right for the integrated circuit that is labeled as a “chip”.

They always insist Old Zealand was replaced in the 19th Century; don’t believe it people!
