#

no but seriously tho they should've kept silent

#

I think hearing delays is far worse than the devs being silent here

#

they could've posted trailers and such when the game is damn ready

#

One of the reasons why I hate this gaming industry as a whole (movies included)

royal crow
#

I canbt bweathe when i'b sick

rancid juniper
#

and within that long time gap they could've made a smaller game

#

They have IPs like midnight club for example and never made another project out of it

As a cheap Direct Die solution I plan to use washers to lower my LT720 AIO's coldplate to the dies with a TG direct die frame.

For the TiM should I use PTM7950 or Kryosheets? I don't want to use Liquid Metal because of potential welding and spilling. I will be covering the capacitors with kapton tape.

Brother, that score puts you in the top 15% of SAT takers

What do you mean "not good"

its out of 1520 not 1600

this is like top 2% i think for psat

for nmsqt its a top 6%

NMSQT? What is that

harder psat for a scholarship

misty sparrow
#

Okay

#

That is still good though

i was going for at least a 1400

misty sparrow

You got close

#

Study harder and try it again next time

acoustic palm

its a one try only test

Does the scholarship need a score of 1400?

it needs closer to a 1500 to get a good one, and a 1400 for a decent one

Gonna be a fun drive home tonight. My worn out Michelin pilot sport 4s don't like the snow.

#

a tire that works well for rain wont necessarily work well for snow and vice versa

#

and then there is also hydroplaning with water

chrome mirage
#

When you drive on rain your tires still touch the road. On snow there is a slippery surface between the tires and the road.

You did bring up hydroplaning with snow so I didn't know how it worked with snow

the presence of snow also means ice is possible as well, and that is a whole other can of worms

Its fine, all you need is enough snow on the roads so that your tires never touch the ice, ez

When the bubble bursts and reality sets in, the AI will do everything fad will fade and it will become an important tool for specific tasks just like every important advancement has since we've allowed boom and busts to occur again

time to buy intel

nocturne flicker
#

Everyone was convinced the internet will do everything and will be the cash cow they were all waiting for. Then reality will set in, most companies involved with the early internet died and what came out of it were companies involved with websites fulfilling specific needs for groups of people. And when the tech was actually allowed time to breathe it became a cornerstone of modern society

frigid stag
#

it shouldnt have tbh

nocturne flicker
#

And that is a conversation not for a place with a no controversy rule derpyBlob

frigid stag
nocturne flicker
#

The only real difference now is that the companies involved with the bubble are in a circular feedback loop enforcing growth via major investments with funny money for a tech that has few profitable uses currently while with dot com it was pretty much everyone just buying into hype and fighting each other over niches within a niche field

#

Also one company is proping up the entire thing this time

like readability

#

Legibility is the ease with which a reader can decode symbols. In addition to written language, it can also refer to behaviour or architecture, for example. From the perspective of communication research, it can be described as a measure of the permeability of a communication channel. A large number of known factors can affect legibility.

Doubt it

one problem i have with embark's games is that the upscaling techniques are somewhat outdated

fsr 3 was terrible

#

Even the drg rogue core closed alpha has a better implementation, and it is made by a super small team

Xess looked nice though

Games just be liek that sometimes

XeSS 2.1 is probably the best alternative for cards that can't have FSR 4 or DLSS

After chatting with this girl who primarily speaks Mandarin and doesn't know much English, I can say that iOS's automatic translation feature in iMessage is viable (this is girl 3 btw)

Also, the date with girl 1 went well and we're going on another date on Tuesday

Girl 2 never even told me how to meet her and now she's on a flight for work 💀

# lone mango This is pretty old what I am referring to

Here using the GTX 1060 and FSR 3 Quality and some mix of medium and high settings, performance is around 35 FPS, when enabling Frame Gen with Nvidia Reflex, the game runs at double the framerate while retaining the same latency!

As with Lords of the Fallen I recommend using FSR 3 as it makes the game a lot more fluid at almost no latency or q...

Just remember this quote, "With each additional one (girl) the costs double and the relationship is twice as hard to maintain", this is a something the father of my father's ex-wife pointed out to him since he was married to three wives all of whom were aware of the relationship between each other and lived next to each other. @craggy shoal

I bet she's cute, but ...how is she as a person?

craggy shoal

Since she's not a citizen, she has the option to stay for a little longer before her actual deadline (I forgot whether it's 3 or 6 months). I'd probably suggest to her that she uses that if she decides on taking the marriage route

Hm

ngl I didn't like her pictures on Hinge that much, but they were enough for me to like her profile. We met in person on Monday, she didn't wear makeup, also seemed like she had a bland personality when texting her, but I liked her WAY more in person

She's a lot prettier in person and she also likes offensive humor
