Nothing really new here.

AI is pretty new.

I hated homework when I was a kid

Most kids dislike rules, homework, vegetables… Kids liking something isn’t exactly the definition of wether it’s good or bad.

and I still think it’s pointless

You’re free to think that. Teachers however study exactly why homework plays a relevant role in education and how to use it - which is why it’s pretty much universally adopted as part of schooling. So again, you liking it or not means very little.

Like there is a lot of stupidity on reddit but usually someone comes in with actual knowledge

Be careful with that, actually. Reddit mastered repeating an explanation or analogy they read on another thread or saw on YouTube, but being quite eloquent at explaining it. Problem is, if they misunderstood it to begin with, they’ll just as confidently repeat a broken version.

I didn’t notice it at first… then I started seeing explanations for things on my field and cringed at how wrong they were, and then I started noticing the pattern and the very repeated analogies on other areas too.

Kids absolutely love it. Turning in homework made with ChatGPT, even though everything is badly written and they learned nothing, gets celebrated as an act of rebellion. “You gave us all this stupid homework? Well, now you’re powerless, I can use ChatGPT and it’s done!” which completely misses the point of homework.

People gave you the exact solution to your “problem”, which isn’t actually a problem but rather the expected behavior of FSR 1.0 being implemented as a shader.

You then downvoted and complained about the user. There’s no extra advice to give: you rejected or is incapable of using the feature as designed, what else can anybody do for you?

There are many instances that accept all content (for better or for worse).

The biggest issue is simply not enough people watching. But content restrictions are a thousand times more aggressive on YouTube vs PeerTube

Because you apparently are not capable of setting a game to a window with resolution inferior to the native screen.

Call me old fashioned, but there are several things I’ll never accept being “smart” and having Wi-Fi, including:

Home appliances, cars, monitors, note taking apparatus, furniture, beverage dispensing mechanisms, cleaning gadgets, pet gadgets, children toys, adult toys, bags, wallets, access keys, plants, birds.

Confiscated for having GrapheneOS? What?

There’s no “turning on” FSR. It’s a simple per pixel scalar.

If your game is not running at the native resolution and you’re stretching it, Steam Deck is upscaling it. How it upscales is entirely defined by that setting. Sharp means FSR.

That’s it. There’s no way for this to fail, otherwise you’d be seeing a tiny window for the game.

Not sure why your comment got downvoted, you’re correct.

Valve removed NIS and renamed all other options. FSR 1.0, the horrendous looking matrix-based scaler, is now simply called “Sharp” and indeed you need to set the game at a lower than native resolution, with no upscaling, for it to make any difference.

Roasted coffee, beef, juice…

Hmmm… I wonder which tropical country in south america has recently been tarrifed because they arrested their Trump-wannabe…

I’m not trans.

My trans friends were the ones who managed to make me laugh after literal years without doing so, and that fixed my self-image issues I had since I was a teenager. I’m now happily married in no small part due to that confidence boost.

I’ll be on trans people’s side no matter the direction this world takes.

We did such a great job with AI and SEO that most media outlets literally do not understand the basics about the internet or computers, even when you’re reading content that is tech-focused. The media is completely incapable of covering this topic, and might even reproduce the same absurdity such as claiming a graphics driver is a dark web tool.

There are very few real journalists left, and they’re either busy dealing with the tremendous insanity that’s going on everywhere, or they’re being actively supressed.

We should have fought back against the death of journalism, but we didn’t, in fact, for a little while we even celebrated it. The consequences are that now we have a literal abyss between govermental corruption and abuse and the overall public being able to understand and react.

But don’t worry, you get several dozen very specific Japanese foods and street signs!

There are actually some interesting discussions surrounding Fediverse growth…

…but your first paragraph is so bizarre I don’t think this thread is genuine in it’s intentions.

Remember when Facebook wanted more information from teenagers using iPhones, but couldn’t collect that data because they don’t control iOS?

They released a service that required a VPN profile to be installed, and were caught mining the data this way.

Which brings us to Google: how do you collect information about files and photos on Windows when you’re not Microsoft? Easy! How about this convenient new tool to search for all your files? Just please agree to the ToS.

One clear sign is how despite all the money and pressure, companies haven’t been able to actually implement it in useful ways.

Samsung, Apple, Google, Canva, you name it, they invest a billion into integrating AI into their products and what do they get?

A chat box, an image object remover, bad image generation, a translator. Sure, all things users were impressed by… Two years ago. Its always the same.

My banking app decided to update adding “innovative AI features!” which meant… Any guesses?

Instead of typing the value, pressing OK, and selecting a contact for a bank transfer - which is fast and easy - I now need to type into a chat box “Transfer X amount to Person Y” and this obnoxiously bad AI will reply with emojis, two wrong pieces of information, and take double the time to complete the same task.

You know, I think there might be stupid questions after all
