Yup. I get why some people might not care, but I don't understand the people trying to defend this.

Would these people defend drinking a Verification Can™ as well? After all, it only takes a few seconds.

Kind of.

The big thing that actually defines FSR2 is that it has access to a bunch more data, particularly the depth buffer, motion vectors, and also, as you said, uses data from previous frames.

The camera jiggle is mostly just to avoid shimmering when the camera is stationary.

That's always been their plan, but it's getting hit with Valve Time. My guess is that they won't do it until all issues the major with NVIDIA GPUs have been fixed, as a public build that doesn't run properly on a majority of machines wouldn't go well. The latest driver is pretty good, but the Big Picture mode is still pretty much unusable.

At the very least they're currently trying to bring official support over to other handhelds, as they've already confirmed that they want to official support for the ROG Ally and pushed out a update to SteamOS for the controller support.

That, and monitor/TV size increased a lot at the time when flat panels became a thing, so you need a higher resolution just to achieve the same pixel density you already had on a smaller screen.

Ok, now I kind of want this. I only have my PC connected to the TV, so I only need the power button, volume controls, settings and the D-Pad. A specialized cover would make hitting the right buttons in the dark much easier and also remove the ads disguised as buttons.

And you can even go a step further and configure it so all the ISOs go into a subdirectory. Then you can still use the USB for other stuff without it becoming a mess. Right now I have the following structure:

├ apps // Lots of portable apps, using the PortableApps system
├ data // For copying files between devices
├ images // ISOs go here, separated into Linux, Windows and Utilities
├ installs // For apps that need to be installed
├ secure // Encrypted Veracrypt store
└ ventoy // Ventoy config

All that on a tiny USB on my keychain and super useful when you're the IT person for the family.

Those three really are the holy trinity of factory games IMO and it's quite insane that we're getting all of them in what's essentially a quarter of a year.

Also the perfect order with the most relaxing one releasing first and the biggest and challenging one last.

After that we totally need one of those cross-game tech-tree randomizers for these games. That'd be quite a challenge.

That's assuming people actually use a parser and don't build their own "parser" to read values manually.

And before anyone asks: Yes, I've known people who did exactly that and to this day I'm still traumatized by that discovery.

But yes, comments would've been nice.

On one hand I agree, on the other hand I just know that some people would immediately abuse it and put relevant data into comments.

At the very least it failed in a way that's obvious by giving you contradictory statements. If it left you with only the wrong statements, that's when "AI" becomes really insidiuos.

It’s a little bit faster for encoding and decoding

On the other hand, the time spent uploading/downloading much smaller files probably more than makes up for that, although even that difference might get pretty small with modern internet connections.

As much as I'd like to see this game preserved, I don't think the dev can be held responsible when they're refunding everyone who purchased the game.

Currently I'm using Joplin with Syncthing-backed file system synchronization. I'm pretty pleased with it, as I do like tagging- and Markdown-based systems.

I plan to upgrade to server-based synchronization, but before doing that, however, I wanted to see what other people are using.

Edit: So far I see a slight favor towards Joplin and Logseq, but I totally didn't expect (and appreciate) getting so many different answers.
