Sharkyx1 got a reaction from wONKEyeYEs in Your unpopular (non-political, non-offensive) opinions!
I'm offended that you're offended about the offence I've taken

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from AngelaHornung in Hogwarts Legacy Controversies
I guess my point to make was more that, with the level of "bad people" that any project of this scale will be introduced to, simply due to its scale, it shouldn't be expected of the audience to spend days trying to decide about the morality of every purchase. The words I used were to specifically say "there isn't a reason to *not * seperate art from artist" to suggest that the end audience member should carry the final choice of if Death of The Artist is an idea that's meaningful to them. Not to suggest that people should look at the ideas of people individually, not unilaterally. I think there's plenty of people who I don't respect the odd time they say something reasonable after years of being terrible.
some people feel the value in vetting the morality of their purchases though, and both those positions I think are reasonable.
Now it's still my belief that Hogwarts Legacy directly pays cheques to a really shitty person who uses that money and influence to try to sway the political atmosphere of today, but the same could be said of all big companies, but Rowling has held a spot in the pop culture for over a decade with her public comments and actions. So for many people it seems she is a figurehead of an anti trans movement.
EDIT : updated some formatting to make my meaning clearer

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from da na in Are there still consoles or options for kids if we don't want them exposed to the advertising and psychology of modern consoles?
Might as well teach kids how to properly find and access abandonware /old games so when they do try to do it they don't get virus' or scammed by people with those premade emulator boxes.
My dad made me an eBay account when I was 9 and showed me how to not get scammed on it and I've used eBay for 20 years since then, never been ripped off

How about no, company doesn't sell them anymore so its abandoned by the company and we take it because we do cherish them. Only exception is that when company releases remaster or big package with all games available to play without bullshit sure ill pay even 50 euros for it.
It's just company's fault not us.
And they went different path for newer games with bullshit attached and most peeps don't like it so we go back to old games unavailabe or available.
And they want it make harder for us so we make it harder for them.
Like Nintendo can earn ******* lots of money if they combined all pokemon series and make it mmo but no we community must make it's own and suffer with it.

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from Mark Kaine in Hii my pc seems to be overheating.
Most people use hwinfo64 to monitor info on pc. a more up to date software.
As for cooler, what are you doing in your pc to get 95 celcius?. You could lower your TDP in bios until you can get a better cooler.
Is it mostly a gaming system or are you doing multithreaded work like rendering?

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from thrasher_565 in gn fps sucks and we are reading it wrong...
Yep I watched this
Feels like they are talking about developing tools to measure standard deviation in presentation of smooth animation. Makes sense to move to more defined measurements as we are able to more closely measure things.

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from Stahlmann in Hogwarts Legacy Controversies
The critisism on SBI are more silly than the the critisism of JKR in relation to hogwarts legacy.
JKR uses her platform and money as one of the most culturally significant authors today to heave attacks at lgbt people.
The CEO of sweet baby Inc is no JKR and has no where near the money or influence.
Plenty of people with actual experience in the games industry have refuted the arguments that SBI goes in with a knife and has significant influence on the trajectory of AAA games.
Now none of this is to say that either of these campaigns are particularly important. I didn't pay HL, but it had more to do with it being an open world game
Now the way I see art-artist seperation is kinda tough and on a case by case basis. Especially in games to boil down the concept of a game being the creative vision of a single man or woman is naive to be sure.
But for example I see buying and playing Hideo Kojima's games to be a statement in favour of Kojima's beliefs and choices. On the other hand I'd like to say watching Roman Polanski films isn't a statement in favour of statutory rape, and I think the majority of people wouldn't see it that way, I've seen many people critical of actors working with the on the run criminal and showering him with praise over the years. I think there's plenty of legitimate reason to not listen Chris Brown and express that for example
The music industry is inundated with some of the most prolific abusers of other people. In Elvis, the Eagles, The Rolling Stones, Beatles, Phil Specie, Marilyn Mansion, the grunge scene,Michael Jackson, the majority of the pop punk scene from the early 2000s, and countless other Acts, we see some examples of decades of different kinds of abusive dogshit people, who happen to be some of the most influential drivers of pop culture in the modern world. To not seperate the art from the artist opens the audience up to what is effectively no end to moral challenges of what to some is just enjoying some art.
In the end of it I don't think there is a neccisary reason to not seperate the art from the artist. An end user can't be required to research the choices and actions of every member of every part of an artistic project before they decide to interact with a single peice of art

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from Holmes108 in Yuzu to pay $2.4 Million Dollars in Damage to Nintendo. Citra also affected. Asks Judge to set Legal Precedent against other Emulators.
No stress. The simple answer is, based on the previous post I was saying the same thing as you said in the comment im replying to now.
Mihle or whatever the above posters name is asked if they were a company and I replied with "[you] could look up the filing [and find out for yourself]"
My meaning was the same as yours, that finding the info is trivial. I just don't actually care if they are an LLC and I don't care what their name is. So it wasn't something I was going to look up for the other poster.

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from mitchell_floyd in My son made this 80 series gpu in Automation. It's a card/car.
Love it!
I love automation. I've been a supporter of the game since I think mid 2011. Incredible to see what they've achieved.

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from Mitko_DSV in Humane AI Pin yay or nay?
I don't think touch is 100% better than keyboard typing. There's use cases where it's more convinient, but there's a reason professional typing is mostly on keyboards still.
I have no interest in voice control or eye tracking, I view both as a nuisance. Especially voice control. I don't want to hear what others are doing with their phones
EDIT : my reference to direct input earlier is specifically about how when I type e there's no inference of what I'm trying to type, I can type e e e e e e e e, but it would probably be much harder to use a voice to text to get the same result.

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from Paul Rudd in Can't get 165 Hz, let alone over 60 Hz
Hey man I'm glad that the other games are working well for you
To figure out if the gpu is the problem with your Buffalo Slots animating slowly you would have to install something like GPU-Z and then leave it running in the background, do something that triggers the animation lag and then check to see if the VRAM or GPU usage was maxed out
From what I've seen of other online casino type titles I would not Expect Buffalo Slots to heavily utilize the gpu cores on a PC, but it is to be remembered the 710 is a very low power gpu so it reasonably could just not have the gpu power. Your speculation about VRAM not being enough could be correct too. There might just be too many new animations added at once and it overwhelms the VRAM. 2gb used to be a lot but now it's pretty common for pcs to have 4/8 on anything sold in the last few years.

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from SimplyChunk in Can't get 165 Hz, let alone over 60 Hz
I'm not sure if the program he's talking about, the online casino, will respond well to rivatuner frame rate tools
Not to say it will ban him or anything, but it might not have the option to disable vsync
It's pretty likely the display frame rate counter needs VRR, nvidia calls it "G-Sync" to be enabled to actually count the fps. Most displays I'm aware of it can't count fps with VRR off.
GT 710 is not compatible with G-Sync, so it's not something to worry about. It's a feature introduced on gtx 650 and gtx 750. All im saying is I don't expect the fps counter in your monitor to work properly

Sounds like you were in 3D mode without glasses to correct it Imo
1080p in 3d will be two 960x1080 fields on some displays.

Sharkyx1 got a reaction from Ninty7 in How much GPU do i really have?
Intel graphics have no actual vram, it just uses your system memory
Install the program "gpu-z" for more accurate info, but the simple answer is you have 4GB of Vram attatched to your 940mx, and when you exceed that anything over 4gb will be stored in main memory, which is slow and bad.
