How do you cope with shader processing? (sh.itjust.works)

It feels like I mine bitcoins for our Great Daddy Gaben every other update, setting my CPU at 100% for a long time.

I know it makes difference (to skipping it and eating lags), it works, but how it doesn't use previous literal gigabytes of generated shaders, starting from 0% every time? Why it takes so much time?

I feel like I'm a dumbass and I miss something obvious. Or I just feel like I'm alone with it? Do you guys all deal with it?

Am sitting at 66% percents, my PC heats like it renders video in Premiere, just to let me play the game I've played yesterday again. Guess all my recycling and replanting routine can fuck right off with that power consumption. Sorry, nature, I tried.

But anyway if you are tired of it or knows some tricks, write what's on your mind.

Yeah, cause those GPT bots are out there monitoring your very special comments on Lemmy specifically. Y'know because they matter...

Bots on there or reddit answer anything with a YT link, or just anything. There were subs where bots were talking to each other in circles, a lot of them were noticed carmafarming. I doubt no one of techie locals tried to build a good person-like bot there. This project is too obvious of an idea.

I don't feel special. I feel screwed that some human-adjacent bot answers me bs and makes no sense. I feel like I'm trapped in a void, and I can't reach other people.

If you thought that was a joke, I have some material you should watch.

I don't know what invited that suggestion. But drop them. I have time.

I'd take my words back, if they would be related to what I've said.
