What type of a spool holder you have in the dryer? It might be a good idea to get some bearings in there to help the spool spin as freely as possible.

FSR1 is pretty bad as it's just upscaling the static image, I agree.
FSR2/3, XeSS and DLSS are temporal, meaning they use info from the previous frames to construct a higher resolution image that gives much better results. They also need to be implemented in the game engine, meaning not every game supports them.

"Fuck the white supremacist reddit anti-tankie admins", I'll start my own reddit with blackjack and hookers at lemmy.marxist-leninist to host /r/communism - the creator of Lemmy and admin of lemmy.ml.

FSR2/XeSS upscaling pretty much acts as free anti aliasing, making it look better. And you get better UI rendering.

Specifically, the cybertruck.
Instead they made it so shoddy that it breaks if you take it to a car wash.

Though they can induce another type of driver fatigue - it makes driving boring as heck as you don't need to do anything. I can't use line keep myself as it just makes me really tired and I'll risk falling asleep.

That's what happens to all alternatives at the start, only really the content that isn't suitable for the main platform migrates there. It requires a mass exodus because of something major, like what happened with reddit 3rd party apps or twitter/X & the block change , to get enough regular users there.

Lemmy literally exists because Dessalines, a "long time Marxist-leninist" decided that "Fuck the while supremacist Reddit admins" and made an alternative to host r/communism because reddit is run by an "anti-tankie scum".

And your partner uploads those videos to TikTok? Because I'm not saying every video on the internet has to be a nine hour video essay that's going be be watched by five devoted people, I'm saying that an alternative to TikTok, which is what we are discussing about here, can never work if you have to self-host those videos because the entire point of the platform is about making viral content.

Obviously self hosting for personal/limited use works, that's how the internet worked for two decades before all of these platforms even existed. Before Youtube and Imgur and Twitter and Tumblr, I had a magazine subscription that came with a free email address and a hosting service with a whopping 50MB of storage, and that was plenty enough.

We are talking about a TikTok alternative. If getting as many people as possible to see your stuff isn't your goal, then why would you post it in the first place?
Making your content go viral is pretty much literally the only point.

Self hosting isn't really compatible with viral content, you do something that blows up and either get the hug of death or go bankrupt from the bandwidth costs.

Denuvo is an interesting one, as it's both very hated, but also rather effective - in the last four years, only around 25 Denuvo games out of a hundred have been cracked. So with that, pirates can't even rely on waiting as something you want to play might get cracked next week, or it might take years or simply never get cracked - poor Tourist Bus Simulator, nobody loves you.
So it turns in to a fairly simple math problem, though one with both variables being unknown (to me at least) - how many people who would buy the game don't because it has Denuvo, vs how many people that would pirate the game buy it instead when they can't.

The only people who surely benefit from this mess are let's players and streamers :P

Illegal like sharing pirated media.
It can't be commercialised, but if you just "happen" to find the software somewhere, you are allowed to use it.
