They have people on talkshows every so often who claim to remember being born but they are clearly fantasists since consciousness doesn’t start in earnest until we are ~2.
Personally, it feels like I’ve got a limited amount of memory and the older I get the more years I cram into it. The early memories are starting to get crowded out.
My brain has the same power draw as a Switch 2? This explains a lot…
I get your point that reddit nominally has more privacy. I only said “arguably” because I think privacy is an illusion in both cases (which, admittedly, is a bit of an orthogonal take). If there isn’t true privacy anywhere then there is the additional downside of reddit data being actively marketed/presented to 3rd parties.
you still need to setup your world lighting
That was the locus of my misunderstanding. Thanks for explaining!
I thought the ultimate goal was to encapsulate the lighting system entirely inside the engine to stop programmers/artists needing to micro manage light sources. Presumably if a game only supported ray tracing then they could interact with an environment at the object level and trust the lighting would work in a life-like manner without having to be confected as part of development.
Arguably, lemmy is going to be more private than reddit because your data are being queried, refined, quantified and categorised by reddit to be sold off to the highest bidder. If a different actor is just scraping activitypub they need to do all of that themselves.
More generally, I’m not sure if we should ever think about something posted online as being private. You can post form data that is secured to your bank or whatever but they are analysing all of that data on their side. Similarly the large email providers are aware of the contents of all your emails.
Raytracing is being pushed so hard by the industry because it makes things easier for devs as opposed to making the games look better for the customer.
Yeah people get played by their biological urges and evolutionary psychology throughout the entire process. Even newborn babies are programmed to scream intermittently so that the parents are never well rested, and this is theorized to be to prevent the parents from producing another baby in quick succession who takes attention from baby #1.
I did an online IQ test once but it only consisted of the pattern matching questions, there were like 10 of them and it took 5 mins to complete. This is all a long way of saying I’m pouring shade on its methodology because I got a low score.
