I doubt Nintendo will update it, the Switch 2 uses “Tiny” DLSS, a heavily customized version made by Nintendo in partnership with Nvidia specifically to work within the constraints of the GPU and maximize the use of the accelerators available. The Switch 2’s T239 chip is heavily modified from...

In what possible way is Veilguard based on 5e? Yeah in those games you get a few I frames, not the entire 2s or so of the animation duration. And I generally don’t feel the need to comment on gaming in general people are going to like or dislike whatever they want, I usually don’t care as it’s...

Take away the woke stuff and it was still a bad game. Class design was railroaded, itemization reinforced it. Combat was bad it seemed good until you realize abilities and spells trigger I-frames and leave you immune to damage. Makes everything trivial. Difficulty was just making the same 5...

He's allowed to be frustrated; the Executives should have kept a firm grip on the studios and not let them steer into oncoming Traffic. So yes, I agree it was a 100% leadership problem, because EA did a terrible job vetting the person sitting in BioWare's driver's seat, and EA let that person...

The leadership there that was making the bad decisions has to go. The HR department that hired the activists needs to go. With them gone, all you are left with are the activist employees, but how do you decide which are or aren't worth keeping? Because if all you have to judge them on is the...

I'm pretty sure that the slop AI shits out would still have a better story and dialogue than anything the husk of BioWare was capable of producing, given they considered Failguard to be a masterpiece.

A little work with a thesaurus, and I have a great idea for a new series, Volume Impact. Based on my Google-Fu and an assortment of Internet Lawyers, I am relatively sure it is legally distinct from Mass Effect.... Featuring our protagonist, Commandant Drover.

The exploit targets a core memory flaw in the PHP interpreter during standard HTTP POST request processing. When a user uploads a form, PHP automatically updates an internal element counter before allocating memory for the data. By submitting an excessively large form field, an attacker...

Anthem, and Failguard were all BioWare. Can’t blame EA for those. EA threw money at BioWare and they didn’t get the results they needed. BioWares weak leadership and a complete lack of vision killed BioWare. EA just gets the blame. EA was famous for giving the developers the rope to hang...

TSMC charges more for their GPU nodes now than ever before. Unless Intel manages to get their GPU’s made with their own Fabs they would have had to raise their prices too high to remain competitive.

I would be like OH NO!!! But let's be honest, no gamer without serious cash to burn is dropping damned near $10k on a GPU. The 5090s were going to AI farms, so this is basically just repackaging of those same 5090s, but instead of that extra $8000 going to the OEM, it's staying with Nvidia.

But does he hate Valve more than Microsoft? And they wouldn't have to 100% agree on the whole distro, just the core. Steam is already using Arch; all it would take is them agreeing on a few small things from there.

Honestly, yeah. Linux, in this case, is its own worst enemy. It would be great if Valve and Epic could get together and put out a unified Linux distro that they could essentially console'ify. Have it become the de facto Linux PC gaming distro that they could do their needed checks against...

Samsungs 8 nm was basically their 10++ node, same production line, just tighter tolerances.

I can feasibly see a scenario where the people who are using the available AI tools to decompile games into usable code for modification would do the same for say…. Windows 7, as a “learning exercise”, when that ultimately gets leaked and turned into some sort of Open Source project…. Just saying.
