I think it's like Star Trek; not every person who likes Star Trek is a paedophile, but every paedophile likes Star Trek. Similarly, not everyone who makes game youtubes is a Nazi rapist, but for some god drat reason every Nazi rapist somehow has a youtube gaming channel. It weird.

I had to look it up because the name sounded familiar, he was a popular editor at GameSpot before he got canned for giving a "bad" review of a game, founded GiantBomb in the fallout which was (is?) a much better games journalism / review site.

No clue what that post means if he's just retiring or more drama in paradise or what.


Also I was reminded Ryan Davis (cofounder giant bomb) died 10 years ago at 34 which is how old I am and Jesus. Don't be a fat gently caress folks, far to young to be dieing of natural causes.

the really funny part here is gamespot and giantbomb now have the same corporate owner (red media) and work and interact with each other pretty frequently

it seems like he started to burn out and quit abruptly (to be a self-employed patreon/twitch streamer); the rest of the giant bomb old guard all quit six months ago to do the patreon/twitch thing (successfully, so far)

i have a mild suspicion that dan rykert coming back (after getting burnt out of not getting to do anything he wanted a wwe shock and awe) was an excuse for jeff to take time away. (not out of dislike, just that it means there's someone who's been there for awhile minding the ship so to speak)

I recently saw a YouTube video saying colour depth is not remotely a modern problem with computers, and I’m getting the exact opposite from James Cameron wannabes and their terrible children cartoon animation quality output.

Colour sample size
8-bit is the norm for 24-bit total or 32-bit with an alpha channel.

10-bit is usually for capturing to enable colour grading. Its the minimum for HDR.

16-bit+ floating point is the fancy stuff usually reserved for in GPU representation.

Linux and it’s apps are quite buggy on 10-bit, Windows with nVidia at least has some override facility:



Desktop sample size and output sample size, not confusing at all.

colour space
The range of colours, hasn’t changed in ages. UHD bumps from a thing called Rec.709 to Rec.2020 and HDR changes the name to Rec.2100. 8-bit Rec.2020 looks worse due to the increased gamut though.

OSs have colour profiles, but idk anything above that, like if you are on a UHD resolution will it automatically change?

Gamma function
More stuff no one cares about for a while. HDR has a couple of options because it is not backward compatible to SDR. This is why HDR is nowhere. HLG is a compromise over a thing called PQ to try to be backward compatible.

There are things called LUTs to help SDR renders and it all seems such wonderful fun that I’m glad someone else does it.

https://partnerhelp.netflixstudios.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025502033-What-is-Color-Management-

Chromacity
All modern video is has reduced chroma (colour) resolution compared to luma (brightness) due to our eyeballs. Compositing and editing video needs full resolution otherwise noise and artifacts appear around objects in a scene. The final processing stage can throw it all away though.

So today all presentation video is 8-bit 4:2:0 SDR Rec.709, or 10-bit 4:2:0 HDR Rec.2100. Working content is often Apple’s ProRes 4:4:4:4 (extra 4 for alpha).

I’m having Dunning Krueger designers wanting me to render directly their multiple giggawatt video files or at least transcode to “only” 10-bit 4:4:4. For low resolution LEDs where you can see a pixel this has some logic, but pretty much nothing works like this.



:lol: We have not been permitted to use this content after this week, it's so important, or something.

Windows 11 and HDR is so annoying, I've had 8+ hard locks on a new Razer laptop with HDR display in the first week of usage. Chrome, Zoom, WebEx, etc, all have no clue what is happening and frequently fail in different ways.

i bounced off it the first time. i think they probably should have started the game in a different area like the golf course. also the gators are introduced a bit too early, they should have done barracudas first instead. you can't really effectively fight gators for quite a while

by the end of the game it's fun as gently caress to pick off hammerheads as though they were harmless turtles

oh so the combat gets more fun? i got to the alligator fight that's like the second mission and quit cause it was really not very fun. but if it gets more fun later maybe i'll try again - the premise owns hard

there's story missions to move things ahead then there's optional fights, i think you can put off fighting a gator for a while. you can also unlock good fighting teeth early just by swimming around pinging your sonar and finding all the landmarks (? that look like signposts as you approach) in the first area. upgrading your sonar first makes it usable more often and have longer range

once you get into other areas you will want to look for all the landmarks in each one, the set you piece together is a pretty decent one

sorry the teeth are in the second area. the first area landmarks give an organ that increases protein earning and healing from eating, still worth it

also the story missions are the white ! on blue circles, mainline those until you get to the second area and unlock them teeth

I have a lot of points to make and I will make them later.
My first RimWorld colony got to 8 people, top of the world with a high intelligence researcher and trickshot gunner and a happy, healthy agrarian life.

But thay all went to hell when I tried to send a caravan out during the winter and the moron gunner didn't have a parka. Well, long story short his 3 person trading party barely dragged his stupid hypothermic rear end back just as morale in the camp broke due to muscle parasites, and simultaneously some raiders showed up and killed spouses from two different couples.

At that point it was a long slow decline, where mental break after raider attack after mental break left me down one more person at a time until finally the last standing colonist went nuts and tried to punch a giant sloth.

Rip Struggle Hill. Rip.
