Does piefed pay its admins? Iirc lemm.ee’s monthly donations were enough to cover server costs and there were months worth of reserves. Only a dramatic increase in donations (enough to pay the admins) would make a difference and I’m skeptical piefed can reach that

Hope someone goes over the libreoffice ui to simplify its workflows and fix multi monitor support by then. That youtuber who designed musescore’s new version comes to mind

Progressed a bunch more in witcher 3 but got burnt out again. Finished ugly baby and it seems a bunch of side quests become unavailable after isle of mists and I don’t have time to binge them nowadays.

Tried to make progress in celeste and they bleed pixels but they were too hard. I think I’ll give up on golden strawberries and do the other stuff on celeste and might end up giving up on tbp entirely as the fire world seems impenetrable. The difficulty curve on that game is insane

Currently looking for a short ish easy game thag I can just play from beginning to the end without getting stuck or feeling completionist fomo. Suggestions?

Any mod or glitch you use in a singleplayer game. Reshade could be considered a ‘mod menu’

Does it blanket forbid those even if individual examples of those things don’t violate the parameters in the beginning or does it forbid them only if a particular instance under those categories violates the first part?

You will not use exploits or illegal or unauthorised means to interfere with or adversely impact any other user’s ability to use the services as intended; to gain unfair gameplay advantage; or to gain access to virtual items or other content to which you do not have valid entitlement. This includes the use of cheats or so-called ‘mod menus’, unauthorised mods, hacks, glitches, or any other technical exploits, and phishing, scamming, or social engineering.

In legalese, does ‘this includes’ mean ‘additionally’ or ‘specifically’?

The latency numbers of displays ie the 8-9 or 40ms include any framebuffer the display might or might not have. If it is less than the frame time it is safe to assume it’s not buffering whole frames before displaying them.

Your GPU has a frame buffer that’s essentially never less than one frame, and often more.

And sometimes less, like when vsync is disabled.

That’s not to say the game is rendered in from top left to bottom right as it is displayed, but since the render time has to fit within the frame time one can be certain that its render started one frame time before the render finished, and it is displayed on the next vsync (if vsync is enabled). That’s 22 ms for 45 fps, another 16 ms for worst case vsync miss and 10 ms for the display latency makes it 48 ms. Majora’ mask at 20 fps would have 50ms render + 8ms display = 58 ms of latency, assuming it too doesn’t miss vsync

Standards were settled on based on power frequencies, but CRTs were equally capable of 75, 80, 85, 120Hz, etc.

That’s why I specified 60hz :)

I see that you meant TVs specifically but I think it is misleading to call processing delays ‘inherent’ especially since the LG TV you mentioned (which I assume runs at 60hz) is close to the minimum possible latency of 8.3ms.

First time hearing that about OLEDs, can you elaborate? Is it that the lack of inherent motion blur makes it look choppy? As far as I can tell that’s a selling point that even some non-oled displays emulate with backlight strobing, not something displays try to get rid of.

Also the inherent LCD latency thing is a myth, modern gaming monitors have little to no added latency even at 60hz, and at high refresh rates they are faster than 60hz crts

Edit: to be clear, this is the screen’s refresh rate, the game doesn’t need to run at hfr to benefit.

Gooner bait trailer makes me hope this thing flops.

The CUBE, a new multiplayer RPG shooter

… and I’m completely disinterested.

I’ve been playing it the last week

Surely digital foundry will find improvements but to me this doesn’t look that different than witcher 3. Better animations and hair looks better I think? Never noticed lod transitions myself. The promise of increaaed interactivity means nothing in a trailer neither. I only hope it has better multi core performance especially with ray tracing

Click the addons button in that page. It’s one of the top results

There’s an addon for that

I don’t think so. Most of the generated heat is dissipated instantly. The processor warms up until either it’s running at the necessary load or reached its max temp. The temps could increase slightly over time due to the air / liquid temperature (and non heat generating parts of the computer) heating up but that won’t dissipate in a minute

I feel like the problem is the TV. I used to have this issue constantly but ever since I started watching things with headphones on it never happened

It really is. I often find myself avoiding long games with intermittent text or dialog (RPGs!) because I get bored when there’s none and want to listen to a podcast but can’t because then I’ll miss the next dialog.

There’s also the “I’ve got something to do so I can’t deal with starting up a game” and then spending an hour on youtube
