Turquoise passport makes me jealous. Dark green also looks great.

You say this, but I have met MLs (not on lemmy) who tout the DPRK as a utopia and shut down all of my criticism as western brainwashing.

I feel both our perspectives are anecdotal and the real answer lies between our observations.

Honestly I think it’s a total mixup. Every major religion has variations of understanding, whether the differences are systematic or chosen personally.

I thought it was techno viking

As far as I understand it is decently true, but not to the extent that they would be incapable of doing what they’re achieving. Either way you’re right, it doesn’t refute your claims in any way - those researchers are still doing work in China for Chinese companies, regardless of where they got their education.

In simpler terms you need to have an entirely dedicated isolated system to play these games on

This. I happen to have a second system cobbled together out of my older PC parts, and it’s kind of oxymoronic to use for HV-bypass because it’s hooked up to a 4k TV and struggles to keep up with these new releases.

The main function of this secondary PC has become to test improvements to upscaling and frame generation (i.e. 1080p 30Hz upscaled/framegenned to 4k 60Hz), which has been fun in its own right, but is faaar from ideal.

That being said, the FSR4 INT8 modded dll running on RDNA2 + Lossless Scaling variable FG is incredibly impressive for this task. Pragmata can be played on this TV relatively smoothly, and with passable amounts of artifacting. I certainly can’t suggest this setup as a good experience for anyone, though.

Even the article you linked states that there is no definitive evidence on the source of the fire.

BYD claims a contractor mishandled equipment and ignited insulation material, which sparked the greater incident. Others speculate that a faulty battery was the source of the fire. Nobody is talking about body panels… and a faulty electric motor definitely can start a fire.

Nobody knows for certain yet, so I don’t know why you’re painting such a strong narrative… other than to antagonize BYD with sensationalism.

Sometimes I think about that meme:

Born too late to explore the earth, born too early to explore the universe, born just in time to explore memes.

I watched the video yesterday! Here are links for those interested:

"Where they cut off your ear

It’s barbaric, but hey, it’s home."

For some reason they kept the “barbaric” part.
