- Comment on We own the hardware, but not the experience anymore — Big Tech keeps building smarter, more connected devices, but the user experience feels more intrusive, more confusing, and less human 2 weeks ago:
Affinity Photo 3 is also free and it’s kind of like Photoshop, I haven’t tried it yet but I’ve heard good things

Honestly this is more complicated as I’m looking for something that just works, maybe I’ll set it up later and yeah I’ve got an AMD GPU so upscaling is much much slower.

I mean tech innovation has been stale for a long time, even with hardware remember how the CPU market was before Ryzen? Completely dead, Intel was sitting on it’s morals doing nothing because they were owning the market 10 to 1, but even now that I’ve got my i7-10700 I don’t see any point in upgrading.
Software side? It’s a mess companies will always be greedy, just today I wanted to upscale something with the cloud because my PC is great for 90% of the things I want to do, Upscaling is not one of those but guess what Topaz asks for credits in order to use their servers, yes CREDITS, so I said bye bye. I’ve also said bye bye to Adobe and moved on with Davinci Resolve.
- Comment on Why do you hate AI? 5 weeks ago:
Depends on what you classify as AI anymore
I work with Video Editing software and you could argue that a lot of features on softwares like Davinci, Capcut, Premiere all use different helpful tools that could or could not be AI, Artificial Intelligence existed long before companies slapped the term into every product. Nowadays even TVs have “AI” processors which is just a fancy way of saying just a CPU.
I do believe it still should be an Open source tool that we can use for good, for example helping fighting against cancer but knowing we live in such a planet it will be used for worse rather than good and it depends on who trains it and for what purpose because we train AI.
I do care about Art like Movies, Books and the Movie industry so far seems to be the only one who fights against AI being used as lazy work, there are possibly Video Games that use AI text to speech for NPCs or something but there are a lot of directors who speak passionatelly against it which is good to see.
At the end of the day it’s a tool and it will depend on how we use it.

- Comment on 2025 Game Awards Results Discussion 5 weeks ago:
It was okay overrall some games we will not see in like years from now like that Star Wars game (not the podracing one) but the last two big announcements were funny maybe because people were expecting HL3 somehow even though Valve are known to always do their own thing

- Comment on Meta shuts down global accounts linked to abortion advice and queer content 5 weeks ago:
Whenever you have too much moderation and rules just know that companies can leverage that however they want, same with Reddit and how I got wrongfully banned and many others, may companies never rule the world.
- Comment on Disney Invests $1 Billion in the AI Slopification of Its Brand 5 weeks ago:
It’s quite funny because every Disney movie nowadays feels fake and manufactured without AI.
- Comment on After Black Ops 7's weaker launch, Call of Duty will no longer do back-to-back releases in the same series 5 weeks ago:
"“We will drive innovation that is meaningful, not incremental.”
Gotcha, so same time next year? What do you mean innovate? I played BO6’s campaign and it was clear to me that the devs would rather do anything else than a CoD campaign.
You can’t really innovate, CoD is creatively bankrupt it has been for years, are you going to go back to WW2 again?

It might be one of those placebo feelings, but I think my PC is running slightly worse and I’m working on a video right now I need to edit with Premiere so I’m thinking of formatting my PC, I haven’t done so in many years.

Yeah, nowadays I only watch movies in 4K and it’s night and day over Full HD and I don’t know why anyone would say otherwise.

Weren’t there like Blu-Rays? I guess the first movie I watched was Avengers (2012) and it really didn’t blew me away
Nowadays I watch movies with my Quest 2 on the big screen app and think, holy shit

SOCOM can’t be beat, Star Wars Battlefront was also fun, Ratchet and Clank was a classic for me.
- Comment on OpenAI says dead teen violated TOS when he used ChatGPT to plan suicide - Ars Technica 1 month ago:
It is scary how the AI can’t assist you with sexual fantasies/roleplays but can assist with that, even though I’m curious what the logs are because I think OpenAI is at least smart enough to tell you “Hey, please don’t do that here’s some numbers” even if you push it I think.
