These AI voiceovers are getting to the point that it took a few mispronunciations for me to notice.
Nice. Now let’s scroll a bit longer to see if there’s any more…
So it should be safe in airplane mode, no? If I can trust my device, that is.
What’s wrong with a grapheneOS device on airplane mode? Is firmware level tracking a confirmed thing?
I think it depends a lot on the style and size of pants, and it’s just a personal preference.
While I prefer smaller phones for how they feel in the hand, all of my pants could easily fit a phone 7" or larger. But if normal phones don’t fit in your pockets, then a folding phone makes sense.
Also personally I’m the sort of person who dislikes how bulky traditional wallets are, and I’m bothered by my earbuds case. But point taken that a folding phone still isn’t very thick generally.
Interesting, I always thought that was the pointless form factor. I guess I could see it being nice if you have really shallow pockets, although it seems like it would be uncomfortably thick compared to a normal phone when closed.
With the fold style, (especially trifold) It turns into a tablet you can carry in your pocket. Which would be worth it if it wasn’t fragile and twice the price of a phone + tablet.
I genuinely use between 100-200 most of the time.
Like, what are you doing that only requires 27?
In rough chronological order:
Starflyers
Mario Kart
Shadow cities
COD zombies (ios app version)
Minecraft
I’m stopping this list before high school, as I built my first PC and figured out emulation, so I started playing a lot more games.
I’m younger and don’t have a serious injury, so I wouldn’t say this would fix back pain for someone with an actual injury.
But for me, back pain was fixed with better posture and muscle strengthening too.
I think the biggest thing was focusing on engaging the muscles supporting the lower back. Glutes and core specifically.
And for posture, just be conscious about keeping the body in alignment in a way that feels comfortable, not “sitting up straight”
i think it’s common with younger generations, especially when texting !!
Well ideally they would just make the phone more durable without a case, and the full thickness of the camera filled with battery, headphone jack, etc.
Seriously so much smartphone design is based on initial appeal, not actual usability.
Yes this is so dumb. Razor thin phone with massive camera bumps. Who is asking for this?
I disagree – I think Z up is much more natural in this sense. X,Y is a plane, and it’s much more natural to think of a plane as being horizontal, especially in a 3D environment with a ground plane. Z is the third dimension, perpendicular to that plane. Think about it this way, doesn’t it makes way more sense to have a map with X,Y coordinates rather than X, Z coordinates?
And it tells the same time as a $5 Casio, but it’s heavy and gaudy. I guess money can’t buy taste.
I’ve been saying for years that it needs to be nationalized. And this is a really good time to do so; Elon is showing that him being in charge is a national security risk.
But Trump 100% doesn’t have the guts to do it.
It’s using information from multiple frames, as well as motion vectors, so it’s not just blind guesses.
And no, it’s not as good as a ‘ground truth’ image, but that’s not what it’s competing against. FXAA and SMAA don’t look great, and MSAA has a big performance penalty while still not eliminating aliasing. And I think DLSS quality looks pretty damn good. If you want something closer to perfect, there’s DLAA, which is comparable to SSAA, without nuking your framerate. DLSS can match or exceed visual fidelity at every level, while offering much better performance.
Frame gen seems like much more of a mixed bag, but I think it’s still good to have the option. I haven’t tried it personally, but I could see it being nice in single player games to go from 60 -> 240 fps, even if there’s some artifacting. I think latency would become an issue at lower framerates, but I don’t really consider 30 fps to be playable anyway, at least for first person games.
And yes, it has been used to excuse poor optimization, but so have general hardware improvements. That’s an entirely separate issue, and doesn’t mean that upscaling is bad.
Also I think Nvidia is a pretty anti-consumer company, but that mostly has to do with business stuff like pricing. Their tech is quite good.
The Beatles Pink Floyd Radiohead David Bowie
All artists that I’ve liked for a long time that I’m unlikely to get sick of. Also with quite large discographies.
No I get it. Hair that’s put up in a messy way, so that there’s a few stray strands that fall along the face and neck… Strangely hot.
