Have you tried using the Chat feature (GPT-4) to do searching? I just tried it, and it surprisingly works really well for some inquiries.

Like, use their chat AI, but as a natural language search engine. It’s integrated to Bing’s index so it can peruse it itself, so you don’t have to wade through all the Microsoft click-baits crap they put everywhere.

Android fan here, currently using an iPhone.

You’re not entirely wrong, but you’re missing half the equation. You see, the implementations here actually work fairly decently and feel nice to use. Still took them way too long, and they’re still getting too much credit. But the entire experience is more polished.

That either matters to you or it doesn’t. It didn’t used to for me, so I used Android for years since it’s significantly more customizable and capable.

Now I have multiple computing devices and need my phone to fulfill a more general role, and I’d like that to be an enjoyable experience. So I’m on iPhone again.

Gatekeeping retrogaming is a big L.

The Threads app itself clarifies that the intent is to federate down the road.

What’s the point of blocking a bunch of Linux communities? I agree with your right to do so. Just not sure I see the point.

It’s legit, is sent from the same shortcode that account updates and such get sent from, and their official app also has notices about it.

Don’t really see anything wrong with the way they did it.

The trackpads get slept on heavily for fps games as well. If you get it dialed in just right with motion control at a low sensitivity as well, you can get about as accurate as a mouse honestly.

Now I’ve seen you share a lot of bad takes since I joined this site, but that there is the worst. What a crock of shit.

That’s how I feel. If Meta is going to have social media networks they might as well follow open standards.

Signed up a few days ago, it looks fantastic! Can’t wait to start testing it out.

The official one is disabled right now pending some work by Ernest.

It’s funny, I’ve never thought about the render-ahead queue manipulation being a way to make lower FPS more tolerable.

I don’t mind that the game is targeting 30fps on consoles but man I cannot for the life of me get used to it. I got a Steam Deck and targeting 30fps would let me run more games at native resolution but I haven’t been able to handle the lag and choppiness so I’ve been settling for 40-45.

For me, a lot of it came down to the fact that Epic Games more or less dropped Unreal Tournament 4 to focus on what appeared to be a low effort adaptation of PUBG slapped over another game, and in doing so basically ripped the heart out of deathmatch arena shooters, and all we got out of it was a game that didn’t excel at any specific thing beyond appeal to children.

At this point I’m still sour about UT, but Fortnite has gotten enough updating to its technology and graphics that I’m less angry about it pretty much becoming Unreal Engine’s flagship game and more angry about what it represents. The game has always been fine.

The 2014 Samsung Galaxy S5 had a removable battery and IP67 rating.

doesn’t Kbin.social block lemmygrad?

I haven’t really cared to check, but I thought it was the only thing it’s defederated from.

I hate responses like this because they’re filled with so many falsehoods that you know they’re in bad faith.

Pride isn’t about sex. Pronouns aren’t about sex. Gender isn’t about sex. Nobody wants to corrupt the children with sex in the lgbt camps. Stop making our entire existences about sex, it’s fucking disgusting.

It’s a tool that hooks into Vulkan applications and allows for postprocessing effects (shaders) to be implemented on top. For me; I use it to enable FXAA, smaa, and FidelityFX Contrast Adaptive Sharpening on games which don’t support those features for whatever reason. (As an example, I’m using DXVK with GTA IV, then vkBasalt on top of that to add antialiasing and sharpening)

It’s a bit annoying to use as you have to add a vkBasalt.conf file to the directory of the game you want to use it with, or edit the system vkBasalt.conf file to reflect what you want to apply system wide.

It is comparable to what Reshade does for DirectX applications.
