I’m so grateful my hybrid from over a decade ago still gets 45mpg. People thought me crazy to drop roughly $5k more on a car but who’s laughing now?
Although, there were so few options back then and I really wanted an EV, even before we had places to charge it. If I just had a little more money I’d probably have had to get a Tesla. No way past me would have guessed the current state of things regarding that… I knew gas was gonna be a liability, but not that Elon was a lunatic, or even who he was. This was pre-Trump, even!
Real question while we shitpost; if they require a 4 second video can you just wear a disguise for fun? I’ve got neat prosthetics I don’t get to use often.
And if so, which aspects are best to cover up? Bushy unibrow? Demon contacts? Pointy ears? Crazy nose? Forehead ridges?
Imagine, you’re a conservative PM, self described Iron Lady, meeting your ideological ally and he says something so insanely offensive and stupid, you change your whole worldview for the better.
I can dream, but we know she already knows whose company she’s in and she’s secretly fine with it as long as the world order shifts right.
I say it is a lunatic, because who says this on fucking LinkedIn, lol. Also I really would hate to be that person’s son, even if they’re trying to make a valid point because they’re totally throwing their kid under the bus here.
Basically it’s like LinkedIn poisoned their brain’s ability to form an argument and before that they were a perfectly reasonable adult with sensible values that are still there, hidden under the c-suite talk.
A 4070 Super is an expensive and powerful card, though, so that’s not a very good sample. DLSS 4 is more for lower end cards, like a 4060, and only on games with bad optimization (which tend to use in house engines, rather than something like UE5).
Hell, graphics haven’t even improved all that much since my old 2070 days, and yet somehow it can’t even run half of the new releases at 1440p. Some of that are those expenses special effects (which you can’t always disable) but some of that is just really shit optimization.
I’ve seen it in reverse; people who saw the initial yassification of characters they admittedly didn’t really know we’re impressed by the “rendering” but after a few days, have realized that perhaps it isn’t the creative intent to make everyone look like AI slop.
Plus even if the tech ends up being good, the demonstration (and subsequent response) is very much not. Shadows getting washed out, people’s arms disappearing, and other things, people looking it over realize it’s not even doing what it wants to do.
Maybe it’ll work out when the creators have control over it and can prevent it from undoing important stuff, like a character’s plot related scars or lighting effects used to show players where to go, but that’s all suspect until proven otherwise.
