This is Nvidia doing this, right? I don’t see why they wouldn’t try and improve the graphics in games when using their graphics cards. DLSS has been criticized as it’s continued to improve. If people use it it’s because they prefer the graphics with the minimal impact on FPS.

Again, I don’t think I’ve commented on Ithe impact on artists. Since you insist, I’ll comment on it. Y’all raise interesting points. I’m not sure what’s in the best interest for super stressed, underpaid, and underappreciated game developers. If this leads to them selling more games because they can run on cheaper hardware then maybe it’s great. If it completely distorts some face they worked really hard on then maybe that sucks.

That said, I’m just not gonna pretend the one on the right doesn’t look more realistic and I wanted to disrupt the echoes

I don’t recall even mentioning the “artist’s intent” ya weirdo. lol

Such an odd way of communicating and interpreting others.

Lmao. I definitely said that.

I too imagine people saying things I disagree with so I can stay upset and disagreeable

Yea it looks way better on the right. lol. People just wanna be mad. Just assume they’re bots and ignore the chirping

Ok that makes a lot of sense. It definitely seems like it’s more for them than it is for the user’s “convenience”

Yeah what the hell is up with that one? Seems so sketchy

Can you clarify? You’re saying you don’t currently want to try TT because you don’t think it’s existed long enough, and/or that you didn’t try it before because you didn’t think it would last that long?

Idk dude, the latter would literally be exactly what people said about the Internet. “It’s just a fad”, “it won’t go anywhere/be useful/last long”.

I mean, our ineffective af government was somehow able to rally bipartisan support against this very popular app that many Americans use to create/manage/advertise their businesses, one that is the only slightly left-leaning social media site and one that isn’t controlled by American oligarchs. But you still think it’s not important?

That’s fair. lol. Agree to disagree. They’re not coming for “us” at least!

Anyone else feel like millennials/xoomers that refuse to use Tiktok are as out of touch as boomers that refused to try using the Internet? The sound almost exactly the same

I would hate to be that stubborn

Sure but what’s their excuse? Is everyone simply a huge Meta investor? That’d be my best guess for how multiple people try to achieve something like this without looking at the consequences - personal gain. But I’m still inclined to believe these politicians/surrogates want to do a decent job and/or get re-elected

For sure. I just wonder why no one could see this coming. I get Biden is old as shit and ignorant af, but isn’t there supposed to be a team informing him on shit? I mean, guess the same goes for all the congress(wo)men that supported such a stupid, irrational policy

What absolutely atrocious politics

What are the benefits that come from unification, like for the SK people, other than just helping the struggling NK people?

Yeah, that’s how I’m interpreting it as well, but I could be a bit biased given the fact it seems to be going on everywhere

I mean, isn’t she just saying it doesn’t make sense to fight back since that could lead to war with a nuclear power?

Idk seems like the thing a smarter Israel would’ve said, and Hamas never even had nukes

Are the pro-NK folks in the room with us now?

Seriously, are there really pro-NK supporters in SK? That seems ridiculous. Does that guy just really want to start a war with NK or smth?

If I say, the earth isn’t a perfect sphere and that actually it’s a bit oval/elliptical (or whatever or supposedly is) and then someone answers all pissy and asking me to prove it, do you really think I’m likely to help them understand my position if I find them rude and annoying? Most people that genuinely want to understand others’ point of view don’t say things like “or was that someone else’s fault?” They say things like"can you explain why you think that?" or maybe “I’ve been thinking xyz, why is it you think abc instead?”

“I’ma be disrespectful to you, but I expect you to teach me!”

This ain’t a debate. lol. If you want people to share their knowledge with you, come correct. Most people would be happy to share information. When you act all dishonest it makes no one want to even talk to you unless they agree with you

Hasan Poker ain’t for everyone but he’s super knowledgeable and provides great context for ongoing issues. I mainly watch on YouTube so the clips are edited down and even more context (charts, sources, etc) are added.

Hmm… not bad. I only watched 5ish min, but he seems genuine - that is to say, he realizes he fucked up, not that he’ll actually change anything

More interesting, to me, as someone that had only heard about this from headlines, you can clearly see the mental illness pervasive in his community by looking at the comments and even moreso by looking at the guy’s room. Dude is someone we should pity, not hate - granted I understand influencers having massive platforms, and well influence

Still, I wish we could be more like the Palestinians and Arabs he mentions, that checked on him to see if he was ok, instead of the knee-jerk, quick to react Americans we are, that are ready to pounce on a fallen neighbor enemy and eager to find ways we’re different to further divide ourselves

Why are your bars unequally divided?

It doesn’t make sense for chocolate bars to be divided into equal-sized chunks when there is so much inequality in the chocolate industry! The unequally-sized chunks of our 180g bars are a palatable way of reminding Choco Fans and Serious Friends that the profits in the chocolate industry are unequally divided.

And in case you haven’t noticed, the bottom of our bars depicts the West African coastline. The chunks just above it represent the Gulf of Guinea. From left to right, you have Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Togo and Benin (terribly politically incorrect, we know, but we had to combine them to create enough space for a hazelnut), Nigeria and part of Cameroon.

That’s awesome!
