"Having engineering problems to solve is proof that you shouldn't try to do anything." Why can't we just appreciate a creative solution to a problem?

"Having engineering problems to solve is proof that you shouldn't try to do anything."
Why can't we just appreciate a creative solution to a problem?
- 8note 4y agoIt's the most straightforward solution to the problem, too. Your local machine doesn't need to know the input for stadia to work, so why redirect it there?
- VectorLock 4y agoAlso seems like a benefit for being able to use "any" screen to game on. The screen doesn't need to know how Stadia works or interface with the game controller, it just needs to receive video and display it.
- LarryMullins 4y ago> "Having engineering problems to solve Stadia had a fundamental physics problem, not an engineering problem. Their "solution" is little more than a bandaid that highlights the fact that the problem exists.
- iknowstuff 4y agoBetween USB polling rates, Bluetooth latency and OS processing, it's no wonder they wanted to avoid that entire stack and connected straight to Stadia. It's not a band-aid, those things together can easily result in 20ms of latency, which is an order of magnitude more than the latency of a fiber connection to Stadia servers.
- enneff 4y agoWhat fundamental physics problem? Plenty of gamers, even competitive FPS players, found Stadia quite a good experience from a technical standpoint. Best in class, as far as streaming game services go.
