  • Fake frames is “frame generation” for Nvidia it’s called DLLS.

    Rather than having the graphics card create 120 frames, you can crank the settings up to where you only get 60, then AI “guesses” what the next frame would show doubling it to 120 but keeping the higher settings.

    This can make things blurry because the AI may guess wrong. So every odd frame is real, every even frame is just a guess.

    Frame 1: real

    Frame 2: guess

    Frame 3: real

    If the guess for #2 is accurate, everything is cool, if #2 guessed a target moves left when it moved right then #3 corrects and that “blink” is the problem.

    The bigger issue is developers relying on that tech so they don’t have to optimize code. So rather than DLSS being an extra ompf, it’s going to be required for “acceptable” performance



  • This?

    if you use a watt of sunlight to power your phone instead of a watt of energy you got from burning coal, this watt of energy instead stays below earth and therefore doesn’t heat up the planet.

    The “watt of energy” is a watt from the coal… And they’re saying to leave the coal buried and sequestered.

    I assumed that was understood, so I explained how burning coal heats up the planet…

    You may have not realized what you highlighted had to do with fossil fuels, but that’s just because you didn’t understand.

    Which is fine, you did the right thing and asked questions.


  • Fossil fuels are carbon.

    That carbon was sequestered from the atmosphere millions of years ago.

    Burning fossil fuels releases that carbon into the atmosphere, which then makes the earth hotter

    Think of oil as dead dinosaurs and coal as dead trees, that’s basically what it is.

    All that stuff was taken out of circulation over an insanely long timeline, and now on a very short timeline we’re digging it up and putting it back into circulation. So fast that species can’t adapt to the change and die out before they can evolve.


  • Nothing.

    Human variation has always existed.

    Conservatives have larger amygdalas so they respond more to that strategy. Liberals have larger prefrontal cortex’s where things like empathy and critical thinking happen, that’s why they’re “bleeding heart liberals”.

    It’s not a small difference. A random person off the street with zero medical training can tell your political leaning from just an MRI scan once someone points out the two relevant parts with like 82% accuracy, which considering some people will be “between” is crazy accurate.

    Now, the difference isn’t innate, and it can change even later in life.

    But as people’s brains change so the amygdala gets to call more shots, that person is going to want conservative politicians, so Dems move to the right to chase the voters they scared into becoming more conservative…

    Which just further disenfraches the people with a larger left insula (prefrontal cortex) and makes both parties appear the same to them even if one is the “lesser evil”.

    It’s not really new, we’ve known about this since before trump won his first election.

    It’s just the people running the DNC do t care about sociology or even psychology…

    Just money


  • Because not everyone thinks the same.

    Unfortunately both parties have pivoted to chasing voters who are just afraid of “them” and that’s what they both built campaigns around.

    Fear of “them” will always translate to more conservative votes than liberal, so Republicans will win those elections the majority of the time.

    Like, maybe you were just complaining it happened, but if you legitimately didn’t know why, that’s probably the largest contributer.

    Dems gave up on “bleeding heart liberals” because they have standards as voters.
