Doesnt really matter IMO. If you have known bugs and flaws you dont showcase those, or if they are present in the showcase you atleast adress them and show what is to be expected upon release. NVIDIA just flat out didnt care. As soon as motion increases the artefacting is crazy. How do you even decide that this is remotely good enough for a demo? 

Good explanation. For a bit more context: 

AFAIK DLSS was the first “AI technology” to hit the gaming market when NVIDIA revealed it a few GPU generations back. Unsure if it came with the RTX 2000 series or later but somewhere along those lines. DLSS consisted of 2 major technologies, upscaling and frame generation.

Upscaling uses an AI model to take a lower resolution image (frame) and upscale it to a higher resolution, this cutting the required performance to rendering the frame to begin with. This improves framerate at the cost of bluriness in fast moving scenens and some ghosting artrefacts. This has been improved across the different DLSS versions but the issue still remains, although way less notable. 

Frame generation on the other hand generates “fake” frames in between naturally generated frames to improve framerate and produce a more fluid experience. As the model Leeds extra time to produce this extra frame it also leads to some latency being added resulting in input delay, which is not ideal for fast-paced competitive games. 

Both of these technologies affects the visuals of the game somewhat but still retains the original artists vision. Although it does influence the visual quality and bringa some side effects such as smearing, ghosting and artefacts. 

The new DLSS 5 debacle is a fresh can of worms. While previous DLSS versions have focused on retaining the original image and only improving performance this version now heavily influences the content of whatever is being rendered. The AI now alters the lighting, textures, geometry, etc in the frame and applies the most glorious of AI slop you could imagine, removing any sense of artistic direction and atmosphere from the game. 

NVIDIA is attempting to damage control the situation by claiming that developers have full control over what is being touched by the AI model and what isnt. But the reality remains that this does influence the scene content with unpredictable AI generated content, thus simply removing artistic ability and feeling from games. 

But we do not need to worry, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang himself has told us that “we are wrong” and that this is simply amazing so as every good citizen under a capitalist technocratic ogligarchy i believe we should just sit bow down and praise DLSS 5 as the godly diety it is. /s

Legit wish I saw more of this after the AI data collection bullshitery

I can agree with this. The environment is definitely affecting OP in someway, i see the same in their way of writing. I dont think its an unnatural response to this mess theyre living in but i agree they should note this and not make it a habit everywhere else. I can see how it would be very hard to see what is a “normal” level of cleanliness/nastyness if this is how you constantly see your surroundings. 

Yeah, same here. Sounded germophobic but with the context of the pictures it makes way more sense. In a generally clean and tidy house these things would not be that big of a deal but in this case i think its fair for OP to be disturbed by it. Im not a overly clean person, our apartment gets pretty messy sometimes but never to that degree or to a point where it looks that messy, especially not for prolonged periods of time.

 ublock Origin or AdNauseam is the cute to your ailment. Speaking of quality of life improvements any degoogled or privacy oriented browser is also an improvement. Personally I use Zen browser, not as hardened as other browsers but good enough for me and has nice features and design aswell :) 

I feel like usage of slurs are 99% unnecessary. I stopped using slurs in my own jokes when i realized it only normalizes the usage of that slur. 

Even if you dont mean anything harmful or “its just a joke” that still normalizes its usage as a degrading term. I mean the some intention of using that word is because it is because it is degrading/harmful, why else would it be dark humor? 

I also just find humor and jokes to be way more creative and funny when you dont use slurs. 

I have no problem with the victims of a certain slur using said word since you cant really discriminate yourself the same way others can, hence why using it upon yourself and/or your own group/culture is also common. 

For anyone interested theres alot of philosophy and human rights concepts behind this. My partner is currently studying human rights which is where some of these concepts were brought up in way more detail. 

As a web developer I simply have to tell you that this clearly superior web design is the only thing I ever implement. You have to understand the maximized convenience this workflow gives the user and the UX implementation for this makes the login experience flawlessly seamless without any hickups. /s

Jokes aside. How the fuck did we even get here? 

Wow! That engine is pure art! Visuals look amazing, never seen retro pixelart conveyed that well in 3D! Wishlisted and followed!
