  • While true, the way DLSS 2/3/4 does it is to take a bunch of low res renders of the game over time while wiggling the camera very slightly, and stitch them all together to generate a new, higher res image that very closely matches what the original would have looked like. The GenAI part is essentially just a very advanced temporal blending function that’s really good at detecting and smoothing out edges.

    DLSS 5 then runs an AI Instagram filter on top of the frame for “enhanced visuals”, because obviously we want our games to look like cheap AI slop.














  • When was the last time you on purpose used the application key on your keyboard to open the right-click context menu so you could navigate it using the arrow keys? Because that is the key it replaced - Microsoft has demanded for the last 32 years that the two spaces between CTRL and ALT on Windows compatible keyboards are used for the Windows key, and the Application Key, so that people using one-button mice (or no mice) can use the Windows GUI.


  • They (Microsoft) did actually also originally implement it, the application key was added to Microsoft keyboards in 1994 along with the Windows key. It’s meant to give compatibility to the Windows user interface when your PC had a mouse with only one button. Don’t remember those being very relevant in the recent years.

    So it’s Microsoft deciding that their right-click button isn’t necessary any more after 32 years, and swapping it for a Co-Pilot/Windows Search button.




  • Though defamation requires the claim to be both a lie, and made publicly (and have caused “legally redressable injury”, whatever that means, IANAL). The tool needs to be run locally, and specifically tells you that it’s searching by name and that others with the same name will be found in the results, and that’s why it gives the context and lists where in the files it came up.

    So the tool itself most likely isn’t defamatory, but anyone that uses is better be damn sure that they have the correct person if they start publicly talking or writing about what it finds.
