It’s just a cover-their-ass disclaimer. PS4 compatibility is pretty good in general, I think only like two games don’t work.

Don’t forget that you also have to pay them $10 a month of you want the luxury of playing those expensive games online



FSR 3 and lower works on a 960, no? Look, they don’t mention DLSS on Minimum, but do on Recommended, which I infer is exactly because the 960 doesn’t support it.




Does Steam not require a billing address or Tax ID? Yeah, it’d be fairly easy to fake it to access the cheaper market, but if you’re gonna do that you might as well pretend you live in Argentina.


I couldn’t find a proper answer to this, but the manufacturer says it’ll have a route between Ningbo and Jiaxing, which are quite close. Just for fun I made a little path between the two cities’s harbours, and it was a little under 200km, assuming no stops.

I wonder if it’s logistically viable to have one of these travel the Yangtze waterway, charging along the way



I got one from AliExpress like 5 years ago that still works fine

I currently have a high end Nvidia GPU that I plan to not replace for a long time. I fully expect the next one I buy to be designed and manufactured in China.

Now OpenAI can use this money that doesn’t exist to build datacenters that no one wants built powered by infrastructure that doesn’t exist, so they can offer a product no one wants to chase revenue that is impossible.


We supposedly evolved to perceive values logarithmically. The difference between 1 to 3 should feel bigger than 3 to 5. Yet, the difference between $5 and $10 feels to me way more than the difference between $1 and $5.

Maybe I’m just broke as shit and think $10 is a lot of money


I also have a problem with overengineered inferior solutions to investing in improving and expanding what is cheap and works very well and that will negatively impact future space projects.

You know, his entire shtick.

Mr. Xi, fire when ready.



I assume part of it was the very common corpo strategy of selling at a loss to kill all competition, then worry about a profitable business model later.

Turns out there isn’t a path to making the amount of money Meta wanted to make in VR.


175Wh is within striking distance of LFPs. That’s really promising if they can start mass producing them for EVs





Might wanna avoid anything from Israel cause those things tend to explode when they feel like doing a mass scale terrorism


From the name, I’m assuming unlocking it involves some sort of sex act.

I prefer when games own up to it, like how looking at the porny posters in Metal Gear Solid 2 HD unlocks “Snake Beater”


They should make these things look less fun to bounce on.


That would be the A100, not the 5090.

From what I can gather, the catch is that this is optical computing, which is up there with quantum computing as things that would be pretty great but good luck making it feasible, let alone mass produce it. You’re not putting one in your home PC anytime soon, but hey, technology moves fast.



I recently learned about GameNative, and now I’m pretty excited about Steam on Android/ARM devices. My phone has more than enough power for the kinds of games I’d wanna play on it, and the screen is excellent, maybe even better than the big TV at home.


3 meters away from a 55" TV gives you a very poor 23 degree viewing angle, let alone 4. The maximum SMPTE recommended viewing distance for that screen size in 16:9 is 2.3m.

In other words, for 4K to stop being perceivable, you have to make your experience worse in other ways.


Most people’s TVs aren’t even big enough for people with average eyesight to see a difference between 1080p and 2160p.

Why do people keep repeating something so easily disprovable? You can tell 1080p and 1440p apart on a laptop, let alone 1080p to 4k on a TV.


Alan Wake 2, Indiana Jones, Doom TDA, Stalker 2 all have no fallback lighting option and won’t work on PCs less capable than a Series S or Nintendo Switch 2.


Source is RDNA3 not being able to handle FP8 on any OS. It just can’t do FSR4.

There is an unofficial INT8 version of FSR4 that was leaked from AMD that works on RDNA3, but it’s a lot slower, and FSR4 is already pretty heavy.




I sincerely doubt that even if another launcher did everything Steam does, it would rival it without huge amounts of money being thrown around. People already use Steam.

And that’s assuming they get to this point, ignoring that Steam had decades to get there. It used to be ass.



As a player, I feel like discovery is great. I found literally dozens of interesting games just by scrolling down the main page.

I don’t know how it’s for devs, but it’s probably all but impossible to get traction if you’re just throwing your game in there, Fests being a compromised solution to an impossible problem


That’s hard to do when Steam has all but cornered the market. Say what you will about Epic’s ineptitude, but even investing billions, the publisher of the biggest game ever can’t break into the market. Now imagine how hard it’d be for a smaller player.
