I was complaining that Star Trek became relatively politically tame over the years... Now that I think about it, I'm wondering it has anything to do with what the paramount head look like.

I think I have to tap the sign "abandoning physical games is a mistake" again.
Abandoning it lead to a monopoly of their own storefront.
(and many other problems)

16GB is about 200€, that's 12.5 per GB.
Windows taking 2GB is 25€ of ram you can't use for your actual activity (work, game...), proton app (like discord) tend to be around 700MB which is 8.75€.

I had the constant argument that app that are meant to stay in background (discord, slack, launchers etc...) should always be very very small in memory and use cpu cycles because I'm using that ram/cpu for something else.
Now with ram prices, I'm thinking one can put a literal cost on it.

I don’t know and that part of my point.

Interestingly, in the same direction there is also the whole debacle on the display transform and supported space… especially in HDR. Would be great to have something that would ensure a “display whatever image is going through the cable please”

I kinda don’t like those “sRGB/rec709” settings in games… I understand why there are here but I don’t have the ref picture compare against.

Kind of interesting how good RE9 is received when it feels so close to RE6 in so many aspects.

Every Resident evil I play I always wonder how Umbrella as a company survive this amount of disasters. Like just the lost lab equipment alone must be in the hundreds of billions. What kind of clients do they have ?!

Also, it’s a bit fun to have Grace feel like the slow, scarce resource, dark RE7 vibe and Leon feel like the ridiculous bombastic RE6 Vibe.

I keep thinking it's a bit sad that the games that get remakes are the one that are already have found their public and well liked.
I would love to see games that missed their public or were imperfect but had something to get a second chance instead.

Being bisexual polyamorous and talking to other bi poly I'm both sad and surprised it's not more of a topic used for romcom or other soap films/series.
Love triangle ? that's where life is easy I'm running a cyclic hypergraphs with 9 parallel crushes, dates and other kind of states.

The programming community made a mistake, everybody is now paying by drowning in generated 💩... From entire opensource projects to annoyed coworkers.
They were supposed to be languages, to communicate from users to users on what the machine is doing, not talking to the machine.

What I mean by that is a mistake was made on keeping archaic text files, layers of complex mechanisms, an idea of "simplicity" that actually meant forcing the users to use a specific feature set.
All of that lead to all people who needed to program left out of the craft.

I kept thinking about a quote I got from a presentation "if you need a generator then your prog lang is probably not good".
I think it's on the right track but not for the right reasons... the prog community got so stuck on gate kept concepts, llms promising to dodge the gate is hard to resist.

Render graphs as data are the next step IMO:

* Massively improves iteration speed

* Eases multi title / platform development

* More powerful than RHIs: E.g. can fuse rasterization and compute on tiled platforms.

I’ve been arguing recently that Rendergraph are slightly more technical version of what the movie industry call “compositors”.
Having them in data/content leave users in both complete understanding and control of the said pipeline.

I had a few times guys that just started to talk to me like my headphones didn’t even exist.
It was so strange like boy, do you think noise cancelling doesn’t apply to you or something ?

It’s not like those “improvements" did anything good anyway.
