of course, its just that its a huge task to undertake. People still give AMD shit for their drivers and they've been doing it for over a decade. It's a huge problem for any company to build a competent driver team, especially for graphics, be it on PC or on mobile (e.g Qualcomm has a negative stigma for not supporting its devices long). The when for it is not in any short time window and would be a task that would take several years realistically. One way to fast track it would be approaching in an open source way (e.g AMD/Intel linux GPU drivers) but at a corporate level, drivers for those kinds of gpus usually cost way more to produce (part of the reason why workstation and server gpus are magnitudes more expensive than their consumer counterpart)

Depends on how low you define it. Many have monetary like transactions for procreation (e.g male insects offering food, some wasps offering service to mix her eggs into the colony eggs, penguins offering stones to mate), so the idea of offering a good/currency for a service is not innately human.

Would you claim if Starcrft ghost had not been canceled, it would not be a starcrft game?

A competant driver team.

The spun off company from chinas nvidia branch "Moore Threads" has a gpu out that you can buy, but drivers are extremely terrible on it.

Intel is an example of a major corporation who jumped into the dgpu game a few years ago, and they ran into several driver problems and still have many to this day.

The hardest part of gpu design nowadays isn't the hardware part, but the software side

Its why people eant that contract with qualcomm and microsoft to expire.

Albeit also bad for the future market, Nvidia is already itching to unseat x86 and qualcomm on pc if it can. (Part of the reason why the Nvidia buyout of Arm had to be stopped)

Generally, readibility is better when you have a larger vertical aspect the aspect ratio. Especially in the age where many sites are designed with verticality in mind due to the prevalence of mobile.

16:9 is good for media consumption and games, but its not ideal for general web browsing and reading.

Its just a matter of getting a invite code from someone whose already in the door. There is basically lots of people who generate it for others. Id do it if I was at home.

My main hope right now is that Siegwinne(or hell anyone) is a Hydro/Team Healer/Shielder.

along with the supposed other 4.3 healer focused artifact, my sole hope is to break free from Zhong Li/Bennet that some teams use, especially teams that cannot use Bennett's C6 (e.g Wanderer Standard)

I have a feeling that Wanderer/Faruzan/Flex/Flex can be filled with Furina/Hydro Team Healer, or just any team that may happen to use both Zhong Li and Bennett because of a few things, first to point out what Zhong Li and Bennett offer that needs to be "replaced" for a new pair to be viable:

Zhong Li: Top in class shield when using ult, and can generate normal crystalize shields 20% Res Shred and to a lesser extent, petrify(not vital but nice to have)

Bennett: Single Target Healing Bonus based on Base attack Pyro Infusion for sword claymore polearm + 15% pyro damage

Both: Benefit from Geo or Pyro Resonance if other party members are that element

What Furina + Hydro Shielder/healer offer

Furina: Top in class Damage % buff to party okayish hydro application that chases

Hypothetical Hydro Healer Shielder: Shield Team Heal (if supposed healing accessory is real) Overheal > buffs possible more hydro application

Both: Guaranteed 25% max HP due to Hydro resonance (which buffs Furinas damage, as well as rest of party can live longer/dont die to furinas ability as easily).

In the core of Wanderer standard, I do hope Wanderer/Faruzan/Furina/Hydro HealShield becomes the new standard, as Geo/Bennett is extremely poor for anemo swirl (anemo+geo does nothing, wanderer is catalyst and does not receive bennett c6 bonuses) which essentially bets on that Furina Damage % + Hydro Heal/Shield overheal to buff + more swirls is a higher damage increase than res shred + Bennett base attack bonus + minor pyro swirl from bennett.

This of course does not only affect wanderer, but it becomes a major option for any Catalyst or Bow based main DPS that does not benefit from Bennett's c6, especially anemo due to no infusion + does nothing with geo. Bennett's time in the spotlight should now be shared

I'm considering her if shes Sub DPS MAYBE main. Ive been let down by attempting to save for pyro units (Dehya) before.

I want a new shield tv revision because the Arm A57 cores are extremely dated for emulation use.

Also would be nice for some of the more demanding android titles that has released since then.

The whole point of the conversation is that the other platforms arent doing any work for the consumer.

To this day, epic doesnt even launch on linux officially, and requires a 3rd party launcher to even play its games. Epics first party games are on the list of games that dont work on linux.

There's clearly one company who puts more effort onto the consumer front than the other. Epic doesnt even need to make a custom OS like valve does, it just needs to get their own launcher working, and their own games working, which they dont and refuse to.

To say that Epic is doing better for the consumer is disingenuous (however it does better for the developer though)

Its ultimately based on the sites you frequent at work vs home. The sites i read stuff at work tend to be less in your face with ads,.so you know its there but theyre less distracting.
