Neat! Thank you for creating non-artist content!

Do you say you are an artist?

Je ne savais pas que cette discussion était en français ou à propos de la France.

Maybe it doesn’t come through in text, but that Liechtenstein question gives me zero impression that they’re trying to show off. It just seems like how someone would ask if they think they might know something but aren’t sure. What am I missing here?

A bunch of particles stuck together is called a glueball?! That’s too much, frick off physicists, that’s too silly a name :P

They’re probably using green to mean “not CO2 producing” given the context of the discussion being about CO2 emissions. As far as I’m aware nuclear energy fits that criteria.

“Alright guys, I’m capturing the objective from the enemy!” Enters monotone robotic voice: “All your base are belong to us.”

Do you have any recommendations?

Pulls out guitar and starts strumming “See ya later, raider. Back down there in Speranza. Gonna share your mom’s lasagna.”

How does she hear him mention that when she has earbuds in? Is she actually listening to something or are they in for the aesthetic?

Okay, thank you for describing that, I drew a couple charts to help me think through the situation. The lettered frames represent the image sitting on the gpu. It’s called B1 because it’s a frame that needs to be interpolated from frame B, so frame B needs to be rendered first before interpolation can occur. The numbers represent units of time, so in the first chart at time unit 2 Frame A is being displayed on the screen while Frame B is being rendered by the card.

The first chart I drew I made an assumption that the interpolation is basically free due to my understanding that the DLSS functions use specialized cores that could be running in tandem with the rendering of frame B. Then I realized that was an assumption and went over it again assuming frame B needed to be fully rendered and so interpolation would need to take a unit of time before displaying.

I think this illustrates what you’re saying.

Because when I do it on a dedicated GPU instead of a cheap TV processor to hide the artifacting I like how it looks.

DLSS5 looks bad, but after using for a little while frame generation does have some use cases. It requires a high refresh monitor to be worth anything first and foremost to ensure there’s space for the interpolated frames between a high base frame rate. I use a 144hz monitor, so with 2x frame rate I still get a perfectly playable 72fps based latency.

I found it to be good while playing Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 because it let me turn up the other settings while consistently looking smooth. It’s a slow enough game that the increased latency isn’t noticeable.

It’s especially helpful for CPU bound games like Helldivers 2 and Victoria 3 because the interpolation happens after the main rendering. I could not get HD2 above ~90fps with my CPU, but with frame gen on the CPU only had to render 72fps. [EDIT: The latency was actually worse than 72fps for the reasons Juki listed below] It also meant I could turn DLSS scaling off, which meant the generated frames were based on native renders and everything looked better. Victoria 3 went from a painful 20-30fps to a much more tolerable 4-60.

All that said it does have serious issues. The increased latency means I’ll never use it for a reaction time based shooter like Enlisted or Deadlock. A few games just don’t look good with it. Star Wars Jedi Survivor had poor performance anyway, but turning frame gen on both makes it feel like it plays worse while also adding terrible ghosting effects and artifacts.

I’ve been interpolating movies and tv shows since 2015, so I think I was better able to set my expectations for the downsides of interpolation.

Multiple, not listed. If the question of gender is part of a larger set of questions and not the focus the people that will be looking at the data might want simpler, easy to read data for that portion in which case having only one answer for the question per participant would be preferable. Of course we don’t know what the actual case is based on a meme, which is why I wrote “could be” appropriate instead of “is the only” appropriate option.

Checkbox implies that multiple options can be picked, radial button entails only one can be chosen. The latter could be appropriate for the question.

The way they speak in snake in the Harry Potter movies would be an example.

Are you familiar with Kashimashi: Girl Meets Girl? I remember reading most of it in middle school and I think it was the first time I was exposed to the idea that someone’s transition could be accepted by others as something normal as the initial shock of the gender swap at the start wore off.

Through engagement I have created a meme that 6-7% of readers will not understand. Is this slop?

This sounded like bullshit but I’m open to the idea enough to do a few minutes of digging. The study that the first few search results reference tested rats and found that, according to my understanding at least, intermittent sugar intake can be addictive in a similar manner to opiates, but to a smaller degree than actual opiates. There was no comparison to alcohol.

There was this brief article where the chair of nutrition at Harvard said sugar can mimic some traits of addictiveness but specifically stated it can’t be classified the same as alcohol or nicotine. No actual study done, just a guy who presumably knows what he’s talking about.

So claiming sugar is more addictive than alcohol still sounds like bullshit to me. Habit forming? Yes. Withdrawal symptoms after high regular consumption? Yes. Over consumed (at least in the US)? Hell yes. But more addictive than alcohol? Do you have an actual source to support such a claim?

Not knowing better about two unrelated things means they did know better about a third, unrelated thing?
