  • You’re way too rude for somebody this unaware of the topic at hand.

    FSR and DLSS are at their core temporal upscalers. They take motion vectors, subpixel samples from jittering objects, and a low resolution scene, and using shaders for FSR or AI models for DLSS, interpolate the existing pixels to fill the entire target resolution. That’s it. This is not frame generation, and they don’t use anything, whatever you meant by that.

    You can then, on top of the regular upscaling, enable frame generation to enable an entirely different path that holds frames in the buffer and creates intermediary frames. Those are the fake frames you complained about.

    One can use both FSR and DLSS without no frame generation whatsoever, and both were originally created without any type of frame generation to begin with. At the present, Helldivers already uses FSR without frame generation - just for upscaling - but it’s FSR 1.0 (previously called FidelityFX), a matrix based spatial scalar that only looks at one central pixel and tries to apply weights to determine how to fill in the neighbors. This looks horrendous. FSR 2.x and onwards, and DLSS, use the full temporal mechanism I described.

    That’s “what the heck” I think DLSS does.




  • 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.






  • Imagine an alligator. Quite good at catching prey with their current anatomy.

    An alligator that shoots laser beams for tracking and bullets would be even better. There’s however no path from their current anatomy to this state, regardless of the randomness and timescale for mutations. In fact, in order to achieve this higher state several non advantageous intermediates would be necessary and therefore never selected for.

    So no, evolution can’t achieve global maxima, it can however optimize the shit out of what it’s given to work with.

    Mathematics are so beautiful, intuitive, logical, you look at geometry and something feels right as if the Universe itself is an harmonious flow of beauty…

    …and then they invented infinities and topology and stacking squares and whatever cursed abomination allows you to recreate a second sphere by taking pieces of one sphere and rotating it and cakes you can fill with finite filling but not frost and this gif

    Masters in bioinformatics, but I’d be proud to be on art or history, your comments only reflects the limitations of your own weak mind. It’s super weird, and telling, that you decided to single out history and art.
