Re: How important is screen resolution to you?

Posted on 2024-05-16, 14:29

One more thing - wasn't the move from HD to 4k a bit rushed? I mean, 1080p is by far the most popular resolution for gaming (at least according to Steam's hardware & software survey as of April'24), and that's pretty understandable, as only the most powerful & expensive GPUs and CPUs allow to run …

4k on a 27" monitor is superb. There is still some aliasing effects so I do think eventually a step-up to 8k will take care of that. I'm one of those people who can't stand Anti-aliasing of any kind, it just looks like a blur filter to me. I will tell you that when I got my 4k 27" monitor I was …

I will never understand arguing for less ownership. I fear for the future, attitudes like this spill over into other avenues too. Ownership infers maintenance costs taxes storage fees. It's like paying a yearly tax to live in your house Ownership infers my responsibility to maintain what I own …

Re: Weren't sound artists frustrated to know that very few players would be hearing the true sound of their creations?

I've often wondered what kind of magic you could create with an all out balls to the wall modern MIDI synth. I mean for example could you create a device that could capture the sound quality of Eddie Van Halen's guitar , the output through different amplifiers , and the ability to simulate certain …

The truth is that we are a message, traveling through the universe. The message is contained in our DNA and will only be readable at the time it is delivered. This is why the grays are probing peoples butts, to try and decypher the encryption en-route. So just remember if you are ever feeling down, …
