Anyone heading to GDC this year and wanna meet up?

I have some big concerns about this DLSS multi-frame generation stuff. As I understand it, it generates multiple frames between two 'traditionally' rendered frames. User input will only apply to the rendered frames, so while I'm drawing 120fps, my input might only be sampled at 30 or less?!

Incredible documentary... 🥲 youtu.be/4J_yAe3W0Kg?...

Framerates (even frame times) as a measurement of smoothness are a lie. I'm playing a bunch of recent titles that all feel laggy, stuttery and just awful even though the "fps" is high. Measured input latency on one of them today using LDAT. 60+ms of input latency at 90fps. That's so fucked.

Alright, got my pick'ems done for the Major! It's a mix of what I think will happen and what I hope will happen!

Flying out to Montreal today to visit some friends on the weekend. My week is pretty light so if anyone friends/mutuals want to grab lunch or coffee, hit me up.

Age yourself but do it cryptically... I'll start: slapping each other with wet fish was a greeting when I was growing up...

Been putting this off for a while but finally gonna do another tech stream. It's gonna be a shorter brain-dump about networking/replicating animation with some some prototypes in Esoterica. Sunday at 9am PST/6pm CET youtube.com/live/mKBDhC6...

Turned 39 today... Kinda bittersweet tbh. Didn't feel like spending the night at home alone so decided to have dinner at the local bar. Nazdrave/cheers/gesondheid!

I would absolutely kill for a hard-surface deskpad. I have issues with the texture of a lot of the cloth deskpads. I would love a Glorious elements air pad that was double the size of the current one. How does nothing like this exist?

Just did the math and I've spent $2500 on dating apps since January and these are the results 🥲 I think I'm done. It's a waste of money and it's starting to mess with my mental health.

No spoilers but the "rock opera musical" track to one of the fights in BG3 is incredible... I had a grin from ear to ear...
