Neat!

I didnt know RDNA2 would work with FSR4 too.

not wearing pants is a sign of success tbh

Nothing but to agree. But we are way past the point of facts. This fallacy implies just projection of your own competency onto morons who just dont care. Your enemy doesnt care.

fair enough

I dont get it. There was never snow in my asshole???

I'm slightly drunk and i have the need to express myself via racing game soundtracks. If you want i'll take you on a ride through my ongoing playlist and suggestions regarding that genre.
With that said we start with my(!) OG MSX FM in GTA III which also includes Tracks from Calyx:

But with that we get introduced to Moving Shadow who has bangers in the late 90's and early 00's like:
99.1 CD1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EI3tV6EhUjU
99.1 CD2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NV7kBJPxds
or 01.1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwzYXZhuPJs which basically is MSX FM without MC(it gets pretty hardcore with playtime)
Lots more to check out if you like the style. But lets move on:
NFS Undercover was the first badly received Need for Speed game but i'd consider the Soundtrack one of the best:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj3QZq_NECc&list=PLfEZ2UIciT73tCl9KzvmFPG89vQ2DXmY8 As a warning its not DNB. But it has some really nice EDM between the rock bangers and it just flows. I'm not big on driving cars in RL. But it has that perfect Jamiroquai music video quality to it? Anyway back to DNB and Moving Shadow: With 99.1 CD2 we got introduced to E-Z Rollers. How about some more?

Less Breakbeats but more BoomBoom? Have you heard of the upcoming Genre of Rally House? Which is based on the tracks you'd find on late 90's PSX rally games like Colin Mcrae Rally?

With that said i'd like to introduce my favourite PSX youtuber who mixes some rad PSX based mixtapes which are naturally really DNB heavy:

I think thats too big of dump already. Maybe i come back. I hope somebody in this whole wide world draws some insperation from it. IDK tbh.

Have a great one. The only thing i know i'm pleased with myself because i shared my passion in some capacity.

Greetings

Edit: Oh yeah: Huge fan of the NFS 2 - NFS 5 (Porsche Unleashed) Soundtracks. Ironically and unironically total oldschool bangers.

Theres a difference between 'premium' and 'flagship'. The price alone is enough to call it premium (with some asterisks). But its just not flagship hardware. The SOC is more than enough for my needs. But performancewise its somewhere near a 3,5 year old flagship Snapdragon and is itself 2 years old. Also if you give a fuck about these specs because of gaming/emulation or misusing(loaded statement i know)it as a desktop substitute Mediatek SOCs still lag behind in support/compatibility to Qualcomm.

But then there are some unpremium telltales like that third backside macro camera with undisclosed megapixels. That instantly tells me that it probably sports a 2mp unuseable tiny sensor. Its only there to trick the consumer in believing that its more premium then it is. Its not an useful tele like on a Iphone Pro but the design suggest it.

They also dont specify what kind of USB connection they provide. So its most likely USB 2.0 with no displayout. Other things on their official spec sheet:
_Primary camera aperture | 2 Megapixel _ its just typo tbf but still, lmao.
Headphones jack | TYPE-C DAC digital headphone Just 'no' would be more honest but i just wouldnt mention it at all and everybody who cares gets it.

I'm all in with MudMans assertion that they should just own it instead of tiptoeing around the truth. As he said its a solid device with enough unique selling points. But sadly it feels(!) like they try to deceive me here and there with their messaging. Which is soooo unnecessary.

Edit: It kinda suggests to me(!) that it probably is a badge engineered phone of a chinese company which provides semi customizeable barebone devices. Just a guess by me(!). But that would be unpremium as fuck. And dont get at me how stupid that whole pReMiuM talk is. I'm fully aware of that. But thats the bullshit you need to deal with if you start using these terms. I didnt start it.

In real-world gaming, the card only managed to gain roughly 8-12% uplift over the stock SKU, showing the decoupling from the synthetic tests. It is very likely that the longer-term thermal stress from the prolonged gaming sessions is causing this lower performance increase, sustaining lower clocks compared to the relatively short-term load from synthetic benchmarks. The entire cause of this FPS increase is the enhanced power limit, which increases the non-XT 220 W board power to as much as 300 W, representing a roughly 36% power increase on its own. No additional cores/ROPs/TMUs are unlocked by flashing the XT BIOS. In fact, the entire process is very inefficient when comparing the power/performance of the stock non-XT SKU. However, if you are looking to extract the maximum performance from your GPU, this may be a viable option, provided you consider all the risks associated with running your GPU at its non-default settings. Sustained higher power settings can result in GPU degradation over time, and BIOS flashing is always a risky endeavor.

A lot to love about the phone tbh. 3,5mm jack, front facing stereo speakers, 120hz, alright cameras, 168g, smallish formfactor, sd card support. But 450€ for an entrylevel chipset with 8/128 and only acceptable support timeline is just rough. I'm aware that inflation is a thing, chip manufacturing got more expensive, us tariffs somehow affect the rest of the world and longer software support needs to be paid somehow. But that shitty chipset will perform worse than my phone i got 4 years ago for like 320€. Meh.

To me it looks like fashion lifestyle gadget and not a camera. Its a shitty digital camera combined with an integrated printer. I dont think it will last decades. Beginning with the integrated battery. All of which would be allright but ~330€ is a steep pricepoint. You could get very similar results by getting yourself a smartphone from the last ten years for free or very cheap and combine it with some apps and a canon selphy printer. Or get rid of the printer and get the pictures developed in the next shop. Unless the instant aspect is crucial for you ofcourse. With all that money you could buy even a cheap lomo camera and some film. Or a m3/4 Olympus/Panasonic camera from the last decade to play around with. They had funky lenses too. Idk how good the market for 3rd party batteries is though. idk lots of different opportunities at the same time to get creative and still be within the budget of that single fuji which on top has pretty expensive ongoing costs with that instant film.

That would be my thoughts on it.

Since i saw that gameplay footage which was released like somewhere in the last 5 years its all i can think about when Sq42 is in the news again. Until that point i just hoped that maybe somehow someday an unpolished but interesting game will come out. But that footage looked so unfun and ass after ~10 years of development i lost all hope.

Obviously these are honeypots.
