On the contrary, I don’t think the PSX emulation would be worse for input lag; that’s likely all delay from WebRTC, so it’s probably roughly equivalent.
For that reason it’s pretty amazing the (lack of) input delay you see with Stadia, which I believe is also built on WebRTC — although with one peer (Google) always hosting the video and the other (the user) providing input I’m wondering if there’s some clever way to improve upon this...
- joshspankit 6y agoOne trick that’s not really accessible to the general public: Stadia does some input anticipation and so will actually press the button for you just before it thinks you will press it, thus making it seem like a low-latency button press.

- young_unixer 6y ago> There have always been arguments showing that free will is an illusion, some based on hard physics, others based on pure logic. Most people agree these arguments are irrefutable, but no one ever really accepts the conclusion. When I had a big LSD trip, not only did I understand the fact that we don't have free will, I experienced it. It felt as real as my body. I don't think about free will anymore, I feel like I've already watched the movie.
- StavrosK 6y agoI don't even know what free will is supposed to be. Either all our decisions are deterministic, or they're due to random quantum phenomena, at some level. Which of those is the good scenario?
- Aeolun 6y agoWell, if everything is deterministic we might as well scroll to the end. I think I’ll go with random quantum please.
- StavrosK 6y agoHow's that any better? You might as well scroll to the end there too.
- young_unixer 6y agoI don't know physics, but can't quantum phenomena be deterministic? Maybe we just haven't discovered the rules yet.
- thaumasiotes 6y agoLinking it back up to my original question ("what happens if you don't press the button?") - I suspect Google cannot actually know you weren't going to. The outcome is computable but intractable. Free will is just a level of analysis that assumes the outcome is intractable, and doesn't bother trying to compute it.
