they work so hard to make a product that can rival windows vista. i wonder when they will move past it and surpass what we had 20 years ago ๐Ÿ˜ด

๐Ÿค– as last time sir it's still the earnings report.

oh my God another sequel to the biggest franchises with plenty of sequels? what a fierce and independent leader

honestly it's inevitable if the whole industry is optimizing for "engagement". basically less games with more mtx. you didn't need many devs to create paypig slop

Jesus Christ the level of basedness is completely off the charts. This dude is the only deserving billionaire.

it's what happens whenever the wealth has been extracted successfully... no one can afford anything anymore

I dislike the attention stuff like this draws to piracy. I do quite like clowning on games that do this stupid early/late release to ruin the old-school launch day fun and make some kids aware that their parents are brokebois. These new business models just bring out the worst.

yep, minigames on loading screens.

pointless in the age of direct storage and high SSD speeds.

if you've lived before that: corporate thanks you for patiently waiting while counting their unrealized gains and lost potential on spreadsheets and ppts

๐ŸชŸ: absolutely atrocious. let's do for-profit low quality software instead ๐Ÿ˜ก

i see, and i definitely agree with the environmental aspect. but automated coding before ai is new to me, do you have a keyword i could look up?

how is this even downvoted? every one of you knows that programming has some exciting moments but sometimes just a 50 lines very trivial and predictable text that has to be written by someone. i don't see horses trying to pick up old carts to pull them around meaninglessly ๐Ÿ˜‚

Hey y'all, I bought a x4x4x4x4 4 slots M.2 PCIe card foolishly thinking that if it fits in the slot, it would surely work. In the end, I got 2 of the 4 SSDs working on my old AM4 X470 chipset. I'm coming to you for advice what the cheapest way to get to use this would be. I've noticed that a lot of CPUs have a PCIe lane limitation of 28, just short of what I need (I'd like to run the SSDs but also a x16 GPU). I'm not too keen to buy a threadripper setup for this occasion...

Cheers!

HDR Confusion (lemy.lol)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by SitD@lemy.lol to c/linux_gaming@lemmy.world
 

Hey fellas, could you help me understand a bit more about HDR?

  • I understand that it's an absolute brightness standard, not like the relative levels in SDR
  • But why does it end up washing out colors unless I amplify them in kwin? Is just the brightness absolute in nits, but not the color?
  • Why does my screen block the brightness control in HDR mode but not contrast? And why does the contrast increase the brightness of highlights, instead of just split midtones towards brighter and darker shades?
  • Why is truehdr400 supposed to be better in dark rooms than peak1000 mode?
  • Why is my average emission capped at 270nits, that seems ridiculously low even for normal SDR screens as comparison.

Cheers ๐Ÿ˜Š
