    New nvidia GPUs coming soon?

    DLSS 3 might make the experience worse Looking at the digital foundry data DLSS3 might only boost the framerate by about 55%, if half of the frames are fakes that means 22.5% worse base FPS which is a rather high price to pay for fake frames. DLSS3 will also add half of a frame of latency since...

    New nvidia GPUs coming soon?

    Performance uplift estimate using the digital foundry data They didn't compare the 4090 directly to the 3090ti but we can easily do some maths 4090 with DLSS 3: +134% DLSS 3 over DLSS 2: +55% Uplift without DLSS 3: +50%

    New nvidia GPUs coming soon?

    Bullshit performance claims The 4080 12GiB will probably perform worse than the 3090ti without DLSS 3. The issue with DLSS 3 is that the frame generated will be incorrect which will likely make the experience significantly worse than if you render the new frame properly. Here the 3 games to...

    New nvidia GPUs coming soon?

    My 4090 price prediction was exactly correct (1599$) and i also got the price of the 4080 16GiB exactly right (1199$). I am however surprised that they released the 4080 12GiB for 899$ since that is going to cannibalize on the 3000 series (uses the full AD104 die)...

    Working on rightwing manifestos

    The best system is having the senators select one of them to officially take the title of president. Different senators can specialize on different tasks such as A0: General leadership. A1: War and military. A2: Courts. A3: Legislation. A4: Finance. A5: Education and media. A6: Research &...

    Working on rightwing manifestos

    I will keep making versions of this hoping for one of them to get traction. I already published a 15-page version: https://archive.org/details/Rightwing I should maybe add more about elite rule and brutal punishments.

    Working on rightwing manifestos

    We need to promote some real right-wing stuff instead of the cuckservative nonsense. 0. Abolishing democracy 1. Territorial expansionism as a goal. 2. No welfare after 60 3. Tax cuts for the most productive members of society. 4. Measures to increase the fertility-rate among people suited...

    Why Lower Birth Rates Are Beneficial: Dispelling Economic Myths

    So we should have empathy for stranger but not care at all about humans in the future? Your thinking is abnormal, most people naturally care about the future of their offspring, evolution has selected for that.

    tekken became absolute shit

    A general issue with videogames has been to make the controls messy instead of simplistic and giving the player proper control over the character. It really shouldn't be difficult to make a game where you can just hop in and play but for various reasons a lot of video game makers refuse to...

    Lame products & lazy engineering

    xbox consoles Microsoft has a proven track-record of screwing up their hardware designs with the only real exceptions being the original xbox and the xbox one x. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzIAYszH_X4 The original xbox one came with a very weak GPU and was very clearly a much worse option...

    AMD chiplets For unclear reasons AMD like to shove non-monolitic designs down the throats of people. The only potential advantage with not having a monolithic design is slightly lower manufacturing cost. While the defect-rate per die will increase with the die-size that does not mean that you...

    13900KF vs 13700KF vs 7950x vs 7700x vs 5800x3d

    Upcoming AM5 motherboards that show promise You want at least 2 gen5 NVME slots and 1 gen4 NVME slot, having more than isn't actually that useful since then you just lose GPU bandwidth which isn't particularly great. You also want USB4 It's also unclear if having more than 2 ram slots is much...

    13900KF vs 13700KF vs 7950x vs 7700x vs 5800x3d

    X670E vs Z790 AMD will offer a total of 28 pci express 5.0 lanes 16x to the GPU 8x to NVME storage (or something less worthwhile). 4x to the chipset (only pci express 4.0 with X650/X670) This is much better than the intel offering which is just 4 pci expres 4.0 lanes from the CPU besides the...

    Elite rule

    Pure elite rule in practise Pure elite rule has the big advantage of being flexible since all decisions only require ordinary majority among A-citizens and it's also very easy to change the non-technical aspects of the governance. It's likely that 1 or 2 people will end up in practise making...

    Lame products & lazy engineering

    How intel ruined emulation performance Intel has since alder-lake switched to a hybrid architecture setup where they mix strong p-cores with weak e-cores. The concept of mixing strong and weak cores by itself is not too bad but the issue is that the intel CPUs simply does not offer enough...

    Lame products & lazy engineering

    Nvidia GPUs are made not to be used fully If you actually fully load an nvidia GPU (such as via furmark) it will throttle really badly. The big issue here is that the voltage of the card is set not to drop below 0.712 (for the tuf 3090 oc) which is really bad when the power of the card needs to...

    Lame products & lazy engineering

    One big issue i have noticed with technology is general is that companies are not really pushing for excellence, instead they are just trying to be a bit better than the competition for most people and that's about it. There is no real push for greatness anymore. Often new products are stripped...

    Why Lower Birth Rates Are Beneficial: Dispelling Economic Myths

    No it's not important. There are billions of people in the world. You need to be selective in which people you put effort into developing relationships with, otherwise you just waste your time. Relationships with blood-relatives tend to be more stable and blood-relatives tend to be more...
