I look at the face and see one image that looks like a face from a game 5 years ago, and another that looks like that face became an actual person. You couldn’t make it look like an actual person without changing some of the details from the original.
Plus, if you don’t like it, it’s 1 click away from just turning dlss off.
I’ll likely never own a 5090 at all. Definitely not two of them.
But while a lot of you are hating how that before and after looks, the after image if just straight up nicer looking and more realistic.
It shouldn’t look so realistic? Man; I’m in my 40’s. Game devs have been trying to make people in games more realistic looking my entire life. Her before image wasn’t less realistic due to artistic choice. It was because it couldn’t be done easily or run on a system.
Lara Crofts tits didn’t start as triangles for artistic reasons.
Cause everybody thinks they’re ADHD.
I got a lil stone painted statue of a T-Rex 🦖 ripping apart some garden gnomes. It’s my favorite and I love it.
Just tried finding a picture to link, but I can’t see the one that I have. Mine looks a bit cooler than the ones I was seeing.
I don’t care if they exist, but you’d have to make it an 18 an over type of deal. I don’t really care how adults choose to blow their money, gambling included. You want to verify you’re over 18 so you can get loot boxes, you do you.
You seriously comment on a like 2 year old posting to bitch about citations in a comment thread?
I gave you all the information you’d need to find sources. Go do it yourself, fuckhead.
“Alone in the world with a little CatDog”
He said he made it to steal wifi passwords, but it overwrote pictures and hid mp3 files?

Damn. Should have come to the comment section first, I guess. That blurry image was a pita to read.
People not chonky
For the curious: The book is ok. The movie remake (there’s been two or three movies made, I think) from the early 2000’s is fantastic; but the thing is, it’s so different from the book that it’s barely deserving of sharing a name. Like, there’s an arching similarity in story, but that’s about it. The story in the movie is better.
I wasn’t sure before, but after this last reply I can clearly tell that you’re pretty dumb. I’m sorry for your loss.
Just fyi: my mention of Amazon is because Slate is practically owned by Amazon. They’re a separate company but Slate was created by former Amazon ceo’s and Jeff Bezos has also invested 9 figures into it. So a slate is pretty much Amazon’s truck.
LFP is only typically about 15% less energy dense than NMC. You’re dead wrong about EV manufacturers moving off NMC. LFP is cheaper to make and lasts way longer. Only the US has more issue, because we’ve pissed off everyone else and getting lithium can be a potential supply chain issue.
The tax credit didn’t get killed off until the end of 2025. Way after Amazon had already purchased the batteries from a South Korean manufacturer, that was chosen because they have a fab in the US and it was going to meet the EV full tax credit (this is well known and documented. Go see for yourself).
You also don’t know that everyone will buy the bigger battery option. The range is supposed to be like an extra 100 miles, but Amazon hasn’t given price differences yet. If the base model is $25k, but the extended range model is over $30k, the smaller model may very well sell good. They’re just being made as city trucks. Neither battery is big enough or charges quickly enough for long road trips, so a lot of people may not care about the extra range. Depends on pricing.
The 100k battery replacement is pretty spot on. Smaller batteries means more complete charge cycles done faster. NMC noticably degrades after around 800 cycles. The batteries will start needing replaced at 10 years and 100,000 miles.
Lol. No it isn’t. The batteries are only 53kw\h in size and they’re using shitty NMC batteries instead of LFP (or other) batteries because they want the full $7,500 tax credit. $500 would more than make up for the aerodynamics. No manufacturers want to use those batteries anymore because they only last like 2\5 the charge cycles compared to LifeP04, and it get even worse compared to other batteries coming out right now. Really, putting those batteries in something with only a 150 mile range is kind of a shitty move, IMO. You’ll need a new battery after 100,000 miles. Fine for a cheaper option I suppose, so long as the batteries are easy to replace and it won’t cost $5,000 in labor.
Riiiught. How is that going to make it cheaper? They can use a bit smaller of a battery to get the same range? That size difference would just be around $500.
Not really true for pricing. A small truck isn’t much more weight or material than a sedan.
Full Metal Alchemist:Brotherhood (Nearly perfect)
The first 9 seasons of the Simpsons (great little 22 minute stories. Character depth is episode dependent, but some of the best episodes of anything television has ever offered.)
Battlestar Galactica (Had some iffy plotlines along the way, but great character development and intriguing story)
They can just buy used shit and not play at 4k resolution with 120fps. That stuff will also last longer now.
I just spent a few hundred to upgrade my gaming computer. I bought an old amd r5 5600x from 2020 for $150 and an old amd rx 6600 xt that came out 5 years ago.
I’m more than happy to let the “ever more demanding giant game” trend disappear. Half the games I play use pixel art graphics anyhow. If this pushes devs to make smaller and more creative games that run on decade old systems to reach the most gamers, I’m fine with this, still. Less e waste. Less constant feeling of needing newer components. Less bloatware from shitty games that want 100+GB storage.
Before prices get outrageous on 5+ year old components all these bullshit AI and data centers buying up everything will be dumping the current high end stuff out on the market to make way for newer stuff. And that’s IF the ai bubble doesn’t burst beforehand.
I gotta argue against the games costing more compared to cola. A new Nintendo game in 1988 was $40 to $50. At that time hamburger was 99 cents, a value meal from a fast food place was $4, a house was $80,000, a new car was $10k to $18k, and you were pretty much a Middle class family if you made $45k\year. Some original NES games even hit $60 a piece.
So videogames are one of the few things that haven’t kept with inflation. In no small part due to more people purchasing games and less physical overhead, but that doesn’t take away from my stance. 40 years later and a game price has gone up by like $20.
I could agree, but who says that devs won’t take advantage of this once it’s in widespread use, and unlike motion sensing, PC gamers are very used to adjusting their settings to get the fps and look that they want. I can’t even think of a PC game where one of the first things I did wasn’t to go muck around in the graphics settings.
