Honestly, it seems the people most blown away by things like this are people who haven’t much experience in the various fields. It’s easy to get amazed by something that can halfway do something you can’t do at all automatically. But as oth

I like how many people poo-poo this. There really is no reason you can’t use it shouldn’t use a 2012-2014 system in 2023. Even minor upgrades like an SSD are tremendously beneficial. And to the commenters going “try watching a 4K video hur

Tbh I haven’t had a chance to game a ton yet in it but everything I’ve tried has been fine. Buuut I only have a 2K monitor and the system is also massively overkill (i9-13900k @6.4ghz, 64GB DDR5 @ 6400mhz, striped PCIe4 NVMe drives, Optane

I’m loving my A770. Absolutely zero issues with it and it’s handling raytracing and all with aplomb.

And? Just because one aspect isn’t scaling well doesn’t mean the rest being scaled is pointless. Besides the fact they will probably figure out a way to either replace sram with something else that does scale better or they will figure ou

I do not understand the appeal of cheating in MP games. What is the point of being invincible in a FPS or unlimited gold in something else etc? It takes all the effort and skill out of it. It's like it's a buncha 12yos who cant st

That’s cute that you think that. We don’t live in a “just world”. There’s a reason a lower tier person like Holmes gets some prison and psychos like, say, Trump or Musk barely get a slap on the wrist.

GREAT comment. I think a large issue is people are really bad at risk assessment. Also, why the hell did they try doing camera only? Fucking dumb as hell. I would have trusted something like FSD a lot more if they had also put in very adv

Also, the Tesla driving score reminds me of the Windows “Experience Index” score. Which was complete and utter toss. But made people feel good about their systems.

You are talking to someone who is excited about… The Future (tm). And will defend their purchase and choices to the death. So I doubt there is any reason to continue. The fact they even gave us their Tesla given “safety rating” like it was

Tailgating pisses me off. I don’t do it. But this backlash to my comment about hard braking and wrecks is kind of hilarious. Basically, my point is that Tesla has made egregiously bullshit claims about FSD and autopilot. They have given the
