framegen cause very noticeable input lag and is really not a good option for action games for example.

[POM37 → ekianjo]

The newer variants of both AMD and Nvidia have really cut down on the input lag. For example Hollow Night, Monster Hunter and No Rest for the Wicked all had acceptable levels of input lag (10- 25ms added latency) while having a much smoother experience, and even action games can run Great with it, but of course that's also more of a Personal comfortability issue. I would argue the trade-off is worth it, AFMF 2.1 also has way less artifacts in those faster paced games compared to FSR.

Particularly the Z1 chip has many 3D games where you're just shy of 60fps or 30fps mark, that's where Framegen really shines.

If this were a Disney character, it would have been destroyed a long time ago.

the same hardware for gaming is being advertised and sold with Windows 11. That's why.

that seems very short

[bracketfocus → ekianjo]

It is fairly short, but seems like enough time to get a baseline of habits across nearly 90,000 participants.

[trollbridge → ekianjo]

N>88,000, so it has a huge sample size. Most people have the same patterns of sleep and nighttime/daytime habits week to week.

Legal responsibility and the matter of engineering are two different and unrelated things. You can do engineering without a license.

[hinkley → ekianjo]

That's just called 'building'.

Unless you're actively attacking a castle.

Extensions are potential sources of future vulnerabilities. The less the better.

If you choose Firefox, you can take advantage of the security vetting extensions must go through to become one of their recommended extensions.

still, its annoying and he does not need it either with the number of views he gets on Youtube.

[KronisLV → ekianjo]

I am not that person and can't talk about his finances, nor can you.

If it's content I otherwise can enjoy for free, I don't mind sitting through a short sponsor spot every now and then, or just skipping through it if I'm in a hurry, which is still better than TV ads in that regard.

If I saw something like that on a time sensitive video (e.g. proper CPR example) or something very short then I'd rightfully be upset, but this is not the case.
