Are you kidding…?? I wish that was true. The worst I’ve seen it is in Marvel Rivals. It’s pretty bad in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Heart of Chernobyl as well

Ray tracing just still isn’t there yet. Even during the manicured ray tracing demo during the AMD announcement event for 9000 series, its nothing but surface boil. Looks like analog white static overlayed on all the surfaces.

A huge factor is rendering resolution. I only render at most <1080p (1024x768 or 1600x1200). 2x performance improvement over 6800XT in general sounds very incorrect if the benchmarks are run at 1080p, unless they are using upscaling and frame gen to cheat the performance numbers. Do you have a link to these benchmarks? I’d be less skeptical about a significant performance improvement over 6800XT if the benchmarks were done specifically at 4k resolution though as both AMD and NVIDIA have further optimized GPUs for 4k rendering each passing generation.

Upscaling/framegen and 4k are completely irrelevant to me, so counting that out, it is marginal improvement based on the numbers I’ve seen. I’d like to be wrong though, and I could be

Seemed like it was marginal improvement with focus on upscaling/framegen, which does not really interest me. I’m still really happy with my 6900 XT. Although, NVIDIA has been marginal improvement with significant TDP (💀) and price increase for several generations now, so whatever 🤷

I just run updates overnight and its never an issue. I’m also running Gentoo on my 5800X3D with 64GB RAM so compilation is generally fast.

The performance hit during play and scrubbing is due to need to transcode the video as it burns the subtitles in. If you have hardware acceleration for transcoding configured properly, it shouldn’t be a big impact on modern hardware

Force transcoding and burn in subtitles

EDIT: explain the downvote? This is the correct solution lol it’s not a problem with your client

It’s fun. Getting away from it all and spending some quality time with nature. Hiking yourself into exhaustion. Sitting peacefully by the fire and watching it crackle.

Have low expectations and try to roll with whatever situations happen, things won’t be ideal or perfect. There might be rain, there might be mosquitos, it might get chilly at night, the ground might be hard where you sleep. The best thing to do is be prepared and try to keep a good attitude. There is a kind of fun to be had in persevering through any unideal situations that happen.

Don’t approach or interact with any wild animals. They aren’t domesticated. If you encounter one, stay calm.

There are a lot of skills needed for camping, and a good way to spend the time on the first trip is to start learning these. Like if you’ve never made a campfire before, ask your friend to teach you how to gather kindling and build the fire.

Calves are insanely strong, in general. They are constantly balancing your entire body’s weight with every step and movement you make. Also as others have stated, squat and calf raise are different ranges of motion

Pretty sure I’ve seen folk run a terminal emulator and ollama on android

on an iPhone

Lol. No

Dunno why this is downvoted because RAG is the correct answer. Fine tuning/training is not the tool for this job. RAG is.

Fun fact: PokemonGo was literally just a geolocation and navigation AI trainer disguised as a game. They plop Pokemon on the map at locations they want camera/location data for

I love cucumber, and I enjoy chewing on watermelon rind
