round 2 was android vs windows phone.
as for the round 3, we are years into this battle.
honesly i dont trust google anymore, they seem to want to play this game as an winner takes it all approach, android didnt helped linux desktop, stadia dont seem to help much either, and steam seem to be their last option to bring games to chromebooks to fight the OS war, their plan B.

Quoting: mr-victoryThis situation sounds to me like this:round 1 was google vs windows live search, then bing.
"Google vs Microsoft! Round 2! Fight!!"
Round 1 is obviously the market for smart phones. And we know the winner :grin:
round 2 was android vs windows phone.
as for the round 3, we are years into this battle.

Valve gathering a list of Deck Verified games that have problems
25 Mar 2022 at 2:19 pm UTC
its like when i used non LTS ubuntu then complained all the time.
experimental folks test it to make sure its stable enough for people who dont want to be beta testers.
well, i like valve rating system, they market Guilty Gear X2 #Reload as umplayable, and i know the issue with it is the cutscenes missing, if we depend on protonDB it would be rated as "platinum" so despite some errors, i think they are still doing better, hopefully it will be fixed soon for those games with errors, either fixed the rating or the games, i think those games miss labeled should be priority to fix, so consumers who purchased based on those rates wont get disapointed.
BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger is marked as unplayable, great, the 2 i'm waiting...

AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 2.0 announced

can this trick be used to apply FSR on one viewport (the 3D one) while ignore it on the other?
[edit]
actually you just said its possible, but have you tried?
"yeah yeah , our time machine will introduce some temporal artifacts, like reverse ghosting but we can fix that with that <lot of techinical terms for an solution>

Quoting: CalinouThis can be done in Godot 3.x too with a two-Viewport setup:omg i saw an video about this a few days ago, rendering the game in low-res to save processing power while render the text in high res for redability.

i mean, i didnt knew godot didnt had support for motion blur...

the list is growing slower...
to be fair, some titles passed as verified then rolled back to unsuported in the past, so maybe valve is trying to improve their Q/A and that is why its moving slower, but still, that is a bad sign, an console need to sustain momentum.
hopefully its a temporray thing and they will double down their speed when they figure out an better way to do Q/A...

that! if godot can do that, FSR 1.0 will happen.

Quoting: elmapulHOLY GUACAMOLE! its a bit strange to self quote, but...Quoting: somebody1121I hope they release the source code soon so godot 4 can add this (Although it need some TAA implementation first for the motion vectors)i dont think they have enough man power for that, it would only delay vulkan, i think they will focus on deliver vulkan on 4.0, bring back openGL at 4.1, and those extra features either will go at =>4.2x or 5.0x.
one thing i think they could implement though, that shouldnt require too much effort to add is some form of rendering the text in a different render contex so FSR 1.0 could work on everything else from the game, then you render the text as the last step in an higher resolution instead of upscaling it.
(something like an text overlay on top of the game render.)
i think its doable.

i was just a bit pissed off by what you said, but as you explained, it was just an miss fortunate choice of words, so lets ignore that.
i agree that a LOT of companies are puting machine learn as an buzz world to market their tech to investors or end users, but the area as an whole isnt limited to that.

Quoting: iskaputtim not an expert, i saw a few videos explaining the process, but i'm not an data scientist or anything and dont have an good video to recomend from the top of my head.Quoting: elmapulI'm strictly speaking about the rhetoric used around ML, to be fair that wasn't clear in my comment. What's coming from that field in terms of results is impressive at times.Quoting: iskaputtsigh, no it isnt.Quoting: Doc AngeloThe meaning of the terms around "artificial intelligence" are weird"Machine Learning" is a huge pile of buzzword/b*llsh*t bingo. That's just how it is.
go learn how it work and what is possible with it, you have no idea what you're talking about.
on a side note, i can agree that the term "learn" is miss leading, its like calling an AI an inteligent system, as if the machine could "think", that i agree , its bullshit.
As you seem to be knowledgeable about the topic, how far has it come on the "explainability"? Last time I dived deeper into ML (like a couple years ago) the "why" was pretty sketchy (coming from a more classic statistical modelling POV) and there was that whole issue about decisions made with these models no one could really understand (like ML-based credit ratings). I know there have been some advancements, but I'm not following ML closely. But I'm watching the occasional talk in academia about ML being used for some specific problem and that didn't bode well for the answer.
