  Games don’t cost more because of DLSS…
  D-K after two sentences? Peak irony.

  You can just not ship DLSS 5 in your game…

  I don’t see any need to boycott this, especially not as gamers, as you can just disable DLSS 5 if you don’t like it.

  I interpret this statement from New Blood boss as fear that their games without DLSS 5 won’t compete well against those with it available.
  I don’t share this fear, as there was often new technology to art stuff more easy, like digital art, electronic music, digital cameras, higher resolutions etc.
  It always made the traditional art style more valuable not less, as people are motivated to pay a premium for “authentic” art.

  So my conclusion: Art that is targeted at mainstream / big quantity / fast release cycles has benefit in AI and has to use it to stay competitive, but in the other hand mainstream art has always been live-less / unhuman anyway, so I am not very sad about this.
  “Real” Art that is done by Artists for themselves not made to be like by as many people as possible will grow in value and maybe even get more popular again as people may get fed up from re-iterating art that works (e.g. pop songs)

  🤫Linux with Plasma does exactly this

  I did win 11 install like this:

  1. Install windows
  2. On login screen create a throwaway Account (mine was somthing like noAccount253@outlook.com)
  3. Decline all the adware
  4. in Settings create new Account
  5. say you don’t know the ms Account of that user
  6. chose to set up user without ms Account
  7. upgrade new user to admin
  8. log in as newly created user
  9. delete user lonked to burner MS Account

  Nice Little Side effect is, that like this, MS gets flooded with dead accounts 😁

  This crackdown on nsfw stuff is just infuriating, like, do we not have bigger problems than making watching porn more complicated with no impact at all?

  I mean, those who want to see porn, will still find ways and those who do not, are still triggered by normal ads being as porn as as possible to catch attention?

  Who does accidentally see porn anyway?! Except on shady streaming sites that 100% still will show porn ads, as they host illegal piracy anyway and are not easy to block due to hydra tactics anyway as history has shown?
