That optimization part is what worries me. I still remember games like Control & Cyberpunk being basically unplayable unless you had a PS4 Pro.
The Internet is bad.

60fps PS5 games were only ever 60fps because they were really just PS4 games running on faster hardware.
Now that we’re finally getting games that aren’t cross-gen with the 10-year-old PS4, we’re back to 30fps-ville.

Actual pharmacist here, working in pharmacy IT.
Unlike other industries, Pharmacy is not particularly thrilled about or interested in AI. In fact, my hospital explicitly blocks access to all LLMs.
I was actually kind of hoping to see what Microsoft is claiming here, and just walked away from this post more confused.
Consoles are $500 gaming machines, generally capable of about 30fps in games. It’s no different for Microsoft or Sony.
And Nintendo… Well, Nintendo is Nintendo.
The bean counters have decided that people don’t want to spend more than that on videogame consoles. If you want more fps, luckily everything gets a PC port nowadays; and your almost-certainly-more-than-$500 rig can handle that.
It is what it is.
That was an option on console for most of the generation so far: Performance Mode vs. Quality Mode. But that’s mostly because nearly every game released so far has been a hastily ported last-gen title. It feels like this gen has really just barely started.
Single-player console games being 30fps is not new by any stretch. That’s basically what consoles do. And they’ve managed pretty well with it so far. If you want to spend 2-3x more on a beefy PC, you can get all the frames you want. More power to you.
20 years ago… Skyrim, Fallout, The Last of Us 1, GTA4-5 on PS3/360 gen. 30fps.
10 years ago… God of War, Gears of War single-player, Fallout 4, The Last of Us 2 on PS4/XBoxOne gen. Also 30fps.
Luckily, this is about as much of a FPS as Skyrim.
Skyrim, too, was 30fps when it first released on PS3/360 back in 2011. None of this is new.
Both can be true.
I mean… 30fps has been the single-player console experience for as long as I can remember. (Except for the PS4/XboxOne-native games – seemingly this entire generation – which get 60fps on current gen.)
Yes, PC can do 60fps+ if your rig is beefy enough. Yay.
Console wars bullshit is insufferable. Even when PC is one of the consoles.
Hey, at least all of us peeps in the US can upgrade our >$100 capped plans to unlimited for the low-low price of $30-50/month (i.e. what some of our friends overseas pay for their whole-ass unlimited crazyfast internet plan).
Your -arrs see the torrent download folder as /mnt/arr-stack/torrents/completed, and qBittorrent sees it as /downloads.
Maybe this is only a problem with Transmission, but I’ve had trouble making my Arr stack play nice with torrents when the different apps think downloads live in different folders.
Your ISP with a 1.2TB data cap: “lol.”
Strongly recommend a KDE-based distro if coming from Windows.
Gnome is too janky when you’re used to the workflow in Windows. It’s almost like Windows 8, which nobody uses if they can help it.
KDE is just way more familiar.
In a sense. They’re also fancy-pants enterprise drives rated to be able to last over a million hours.
Drive failures follow the old “bathtub curve”. You get the lemons that fail when they’re brand new – that’s one side of the curve. Then for several years, they fail at a consistently low rate. Then once they start getting really old, the failure rate goes up – giving you the other side of the curve.
True, these are probably closer to the “old age” side of the bathtub curve. But GHD is pretty good about honoring their warranty. Back stuff up and you should be fine.
Just bought a bunch of $75 12TB disks from GoHardDrive’s eBay storefront.
Still running through the diagnostics, but nothing has jumped out yet, 48hrs in. Sure, they’re 4 years old and have over a petabyte of lifetime writes. They also have 5 year warranties.
Wait until they make all the money that was to be made on their game.
Then yoink all of that money.
