Game not being available on steam is a pretty weak excuse for piracy. Epic simply doesn't want to give 30% to a competing store.

> Super Mario Galaxy 1 was part of the 'Mario 3D All stars' pack for Switch. It was on sale for a limited time and got delisted apparently. Better than nothing, I guess - but if you missed it - then it might not even exist. My

Yes, because they are using ssr for mirrors on lower settings.

This is not true about AW2 though - it's pretty clear that it's a PC-first title. Consoles run the game at medium-low settings. Max settings are for future PCs. Even the 4090 can't run it @ native 4k 60 fps with everything ma

The problem is that there are no good upgrade paths for 1080ti. It's roughly as powerful as 3060ti. But there's no point to upgrade to a card with a similar performance and less VRAM. So the only upgrade path to feel a noticeable

They can, but it's really expensive so most devs avoid it. Currently the performance hit is not worth it. Games could render realtime reflections using various tricks even 20 years ago. I remember that in Hitman Blood money enemies cou

They most likely will. The same happened with the previous zelda game.

Most games are still stuck on their older consoles. Even well known games like Super Mario Galaxy 1/2 and Xenoblade Chronicles X. They port only their most popular stuff. This is why piracy is necessary in the long term. Platform holde

It was funded by Epic - so it's unlikely to be a timed exclusive.

Interesting. It is possible to disable GPS on Android. But yeah - cell towers will still know roughly where you are.

You could install Linux on a PS3 - it is still a game console, because that's its primary purpose.

Those who really want to die - will find a way. But there should be obstacles to discourage those who have temporary problems. I mean - we can agree that if your crush rejects you when you're 16 years old - that isn't a good reaso

Yes, turns out that you can have a successful console without locking it down.

SD XL understands prompts much better than 1.5. So the next version of SD might be comparable to Dall-E without censorship.

by zirgs 3y ago
Dall-E has the same problems as other models. Try generating a clockwork mechanism with it, for example. SD is worth bothering with because it's open, you can run and extend it yourself.

CUDA was released in 2007 and the development of it started even earlier - possibly even in the 90s. Back then nobody else cared about GPU compute. OpenCL came out 2 years after that.

What about movie trailers and other promo material? Why shouldn't I train AI on something that they shove in my face every time I go to the cinema?
