  • 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.


  • 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?




  • 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.



  • 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.

    a justifiable explanation for why the licensing exists in the first place.

    “because people doing it wrong would make it look bad” is a terrible reason. I’m fairly certain I can buy an OLED TV and mess with the settings and make the picture look horrendous - time to create a restrictive license on who gets to buy TVs?


  • Users paying for the Unlimited or even the lifetime subscriptions, that were sold under the promise of all access to their services, now need an extra subscription to use their new LLM chat box, Lumo. Which is just a very bad wrapper around Mistral, messing up simple tasks like properly rendering Markdown for mathematical formulas.

    Linux users, despite being a very important part of their user base, have zero official tools for Proton Drive syncing. No problem, because Proton Drive supports Rclone, right? Well, support was removed for no good reason and with no official explanation, leaving Linux users limited to the very problematic and slow web UI.

    Proton Mail users frequently have their accounts locked for no reason whatsoever, other than vague statements about the ToS.

    More examples needed?
