I paid like $70 for FF 7 remake pack (two titles) on Steam. Even then I felt like they could optimize the graphics algorithm a tiny bit (I don't want them to swap the texture frequently to a poorer resolution one just because the GPUs from 7 years ago (on PlayStation?) had less VRAM.

Never was. Nintendo 64 was developed at SGI and sold to Nintendo after turned down by others.

A similar system has been there to prevent Nazism rise. Sadly, AfD and other right wing parties found a loophole a decade ago.

Idiots in my company have started selling AI-generated predictions to government agencies. They admit they have no idea what the AI does.

Yeah. Frankly, if my company gets spied by MS it's their fault. I don't care.

Everything I put in my Teams has been accessible by my company anyway, and so I use that shit accordingly.

Careful, Germans take it seriously.

Checkmate, I called the police.

As I indicated, please check (articles and the documentations of) font renderers at this point.

At this point I'm not expert enough to explain more details. You can check font renderers.

Below is what's in my mind but it's just a guess.

In typical PC architectures you have IO between the storage and the RAM, and then there's the copying from the RAM to the VRAM, and editors maybe also want copying from the VRAM to RAM for decoration purposes etc.

AFAIK it's the copy cost for the memory. GPU makes sense only when the hardware allows this copy to go away. Generally, desktop PCs don't have such specialized hardware.

Yes, but if they support Nazis,

Recently on Reddit there are memes after memes on election. Specifically, rather pro-Israel "No vote for Biden is vote for Trump!" If you open, you see a bunch of same-minded people complaining about anti-Bibi protestors.

It's so everywhere I can't see Reddit without seeing such posts.

I can like threadiverse better just for this. I don't have to see the same tiring meme everywhere thanks to having no political campaigning and no forced promotion of posts into my feed.

"Hot" Filter Bad? (beehaw.org)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by eveninghere@beehaw.org to c/mlemapp@lemmy.ml
 

At least recently, the hot filter only shows posts with 0 or 1 comment. These posts also get no more comments afterwards.

This is poor. I moved back to Reddit because I simply thought fediverse was dead when it was the hot filter malfunctioning.

I still check facebook somehow (I hate it).

Scrolling the timeline, I noticed that it's 90% ads or promoted posts. This is next level...

Is this only me? Or has FB been like this these days? (PLEASE don't spam "quit FB already" messages.)

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Tap on your comment and choose to edit it
  2. Place the cursor somewhere in the text
  3. Tap a key on the software keyboard
  4. The cursor jumps to the end of the text

It's a huge issue to me. I'd imagine new comers would move to another lemmy after experiencing this.

I love this app. One small room for improvement is that the browser icon in the web link thumbnail (see image) can be distracting. Any ideas?

I'd, for example, place it bottom-right inside the image, as it's not a key information.

Illogical visual flow. We have seen slides that put the key information in the bottom right corner. ...Try to avoid those layouts if possible, in Western culture it’s preferable to put the most important elements at the top or center of the slide.

Sorry, I couldn't find a more authentic source but the above is a support.

That said, even if the icon is to be placed to the bottom-right, it'd still be distracting. Maybe increase color transparency, maybe there are better options.
