Misogyny is something I saw a lot of on Reddit over the recent years. it was seemingly often "the norm" in the bigger subreddits.
I don't miss it or the constant feeling like I need to argue with a bunch of bad faith people either trolling or genuinely holding horrible views
you can use FSR on Nvidia too but you can't use DLSS on AMD. Nvidia has been trying so hard to force a monopoly for decades now with these features they lock down to not only their hardware but specific series of them.
it's reminiscent of Microsoft making sure Linux can't use a wide range of software via directx and such, forcing people to resort to WINE and effectively becoming an operating system monopoly outside of apples gated garden
meanwhile AMD let's everyone use their software tech and people cry foul the moment they do 1/1000th of the anti competitive behavior Nvidia does in its sleep, I mean this is literally just sponsoring a game
powerless? Reddit has like 0% of my daily Mindshare and I have here now which doesn't really feel meaningfully different in any negative way, only positive ones! I like to think I had the power to change my life for the better in this aspect, and I did
"I promise I make up fantasies where I get to punch women because I totally just believe in equal rights and not because of misogyny or anything!" - every time. oh and you'd get downvoted to hell if you pointed this stuff out.
if youtube could win against adblockers, they wouldn't need to get manifest v3 to destroy their functions. firefox users stay winning
ah, my favourite videos on youtube. long rants from technology connections and other similar channels. so soothing even though i often have no idea what is happening
think of the d4 cash shop as cosmetics that don't affect you and lets people who do want them fund your free DLC in the future of the game
personally I kinda like this model over the loot box filled nightmare it would have been if it released in 2017 ish and also over the DLC mess diablo 3 was
learning about this part of myself was one of the only parts of my life that has been a net positive for me!
Personally i would force dark as that tends to match up with how phones used to look without notches I guess, most familiar probably. and the way it currently is makes it impossible to see notifications or battery or any of the text in that bar (its also white)
personally I like a windows 11 for my main gaming focused desktop and arch linux with KDE for my laptop windows 10 just feels like a less finished windows 11 to me now
damn really? I blocked like a billion instances already to stop seeing porn before I decided to turn off NSFW altogether (on Reddit sometimes good not porn content was marked NSFW also, so turning it off was not ideal)
NVIDIA does not and will not block, restrict, discourage, or hinder developers from implementing competitor technologies in any way.
lmao this is such a straight up lie. NVIDIA is one of the most anti-competitive companies in the industry.
Of course, this is pure conjecture and unsubstantiated
OK
I like how Nvidia just straight up tells a bold-faced lie and people buy it up "they explicitly state they don't so we believe them 🥺" but AMD posts a whole chart of all the examples proving they don't force no DLSS and apparently that's "dodging the question"
yeah it seems the landscaped changed and some DLSS titles have FSR2 now but they all got it months after DLSS, so it's basically an exclusivity period it seems
the rest of the article is kinda crap, they even admit its all speculation lol
I'm not interested in spending my energy on hating the underdog who makes their tech open so everyone can use it and works with 1/10 games when the bigger corporation trying to make a monopoly is working with 9/10 games and forcing out the other. Nvidia goes and tries to force third party card makers to change their AMD branding and nobody says shit but the moment AMD even just sponsors a game (they can still add DLSS if they wanted!) and suddenly its a problem and AMD is "just as bad" as nvidia. no, fuck that. fuck "but but but superior technology!!1"
fair enough, good to know we're getting some upgrades!
I'd been on mastodon since 2018 I love the fediverse a lot. I love that I don't feel pressure to be a certain way or post a certain way (like putting a typo in my meme on purpose to increase engagement 🤮💀)
I love that a community is enough. we don't need infinite upwards growth like a bunch of lunatics
I love that there's so many instances. I love opening up my browser again.
I don't see what there is to gain from this, I don't want mega-corporation in my social media anymore. especially not after what has been happening to their platforms. if their users want to join the fediverse, the account creation process is always open as long as they can follow the rules!
And of course there's always the fact that their end goal will not be good for any of us, no matter what it is there is a 0% chance our interests align
