- Comment on ELI5: How does Frame Generation even work? 2 weeks ago:
They don’t ever do more than 4 predicted frames per 1 full frame, and usually just 1:1

Blame the tools lol
- Comment on The Third Shift, a Game Boy styled horror game that combines first, second, and third person perspectives where you play the newest employee in a Museum on night shift, released on Steam 2 weeks ago:
Somebody made a whole-ass video about it a while ago, and there’s essentially one notable example in a video game where there’s a chase scene where you’re the protagonist controlling your car but seen from the perspective of the antagonist (from the camera perspective you’re chasing yourself)
- Comment on ELI5: How does Frame Generation even work? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah devs apparently saw it didn’t use internal engine data much at all

Somebody hasn’t played Zelda and it shows
- Comment on Playnix: Boutique Linux PC released with better gaming performance than Valve Steam Machine 3 weeks ago:
No but you’re paying for it to have that capacity
- Comment on Playnix: Boutique Linux PC released with better gaming performance than Valve Steam Machine 3 weeks ago:
Also the real goal with it, like with the Deck, is to set a standard for what hardware games should run well on for the next several years, and to give PC manufacturer a target for what to match or improve on.

I saw the same restriction on the Swedish site

Reinforced feedback learning is kinda that

Remember the touch panel on the back and the games that used it?

He needs to end in a humiliating self inflicted way. Falling off the stairs or something.
- Comment on Can one use someone's previous argument against themselves in a different legal case? 2 months ago:
Yes you can cite the other party’s past statements. They might not always mean as much as you hoped for the current court case, unless you can show it was a consistent position of your counterparty even recently, or in particular if they gave you reason to believe that was their position.

Yup, FEX to translate x86 to ARM.
- Comment on Multiverse 1 year ago:
Under quantum mechanics this can’t explain non-even distributions. With no effects making high probability events more prevalent than others you can not (reliably) observe differentiated probabilities.
And once again, cardinalites appears. A thing whose possible variations correspond to infinite integers can’t match that with have variations matching the real numbers. An infinite line won’t correspond to an infinite hypercube in infinite dimensions. Gotta consider combinatorics from statistics too, as well as entropy. The number of normal states simply has to far exceed the strange states for us to observe a normal universe.

e^i*pi + 1
- Comment on Multiverse 1 year ago:
Something dark matter like has to exist, because there’s no other reasonable way to describe this behavior (shifted center of gravity matching presence of matter not influenced by friction)
- Comment on Multiverse 1 year ago:
Boltzman brains?
- Comment on Multiverse 1 year ago:
We’re getting into hierarchies of infinities here, look up cardinality. You can have infinities that can’t map to every possibility of a higher infinity
- Comment on I am in the US and its gotten very political but as pretty much a peon do I just tune the stuff out thinking its fear mongering? Or should I closely pay attention to it? 1 year ago:
You could also Steve Jobs yourself with a treatable but deadly disease
- Comment on I don't see the problem. It's A tree. It's not THE tree. 1 year ago:
Given the perfect grid pattern and a certain kind of coherence this kind of ML doesn’t usually preserve it’s much more likely somebody cut and paste the individual images into an ML based image generator to repaint them with English text
Stupid? Yes. They could have just taken the text alone into an LLM, or better yet regular translation program. But since when was the kind of people who blindly rely on ML smart?
- Comment on I don't see the problem. It's A tree. It's not THE tree. 1 year ago:
Could very well be ML repainting, “draw this image with English text”

It’s probably in-place translation using AI for a French book
- Comment on Is there an equivalent of solar panels for radio waves? 1 year ago:
Also microwave projection is used sometimes for power transfer at a distance (mostly stuff like between mountaintops or islands, also only in clear weather)
- Comment on What's the deal with male loneliness? 1 year ago:
No, male culture has changed far more due to propaganda, etc.
