Yesterday I proudly did my part in this survey.

I used to have the "Founders Edition" subscription tier from when GeForce Now was introduced. It was like 25$/quarter and a limited time offer for the first subscribers of GeForce Now. It was on par with the premium tier (best servers, no time limit, and best quality + ray tracing). Of course, over the years, it got degraded to second best servers, 6 hour session limit, max. 1080p and so on ... Then I quit.

This, tbh. You don't get bullied for something, you get bullied because bullies want to bully.

Great and such, but the large majority that might come to the Fediverse will never look nor use that function. If we don't defederate with our instances now, we never will.

It's not even really better on Windows. (Nearly) all streaming services restrict resolution to 720p if you watch on a PC, mobile phone or tablet. With the exception of Netflix if you watch with Microsoft Edge or Chrome, I believe.

Netflix definitely increased 1080p compression (or said better, nerfed it). 1080p even looks a little pixelated on my mobile phone now when it looked great on a PC monitor a few years ago.

Was mich daran Wahnsinnig macht, ist dass wenn die Teile mal durch Bodenunebenheiten oder so auf und ab wippen, ich die dauernd mit Rettungs- oder Einsatzwagen verwechsel (also wenn die hinter einem fahren), weil das Licht im geänderten Winkel dann blau wirkt.

I feel you. I've had struggled with worrying a lot, too. Biggest insight for me was that worries are first of all just fantasies about the future. Start asking yourself more often: "what if everything goes well?" Instead of "what if everything goes wrong?". Realize, in the realm of fantasies those two questions are equals. Your mom said that she thinks the engine sounded funny. And that's it for all we know. Maybe she even just misheard. Also, start tackling real problems that may arise step by step. Stringing along worries before they have even arrived is of course paralyzing because fantasies are endless. You often will realize that all those "follow up" problems you fantasized about will never arise because you are very well capable of solving the real problems right away. Friends and family will love to help you if you ask.

Können wir eine bild.de Warnung haben?

Yeah the hardware I'm running can easily run cyberpunk and any other modern game with satisfying FPS. Yet, it has no 8th gen CPU so I'm not able to upgrade. If I would upgrade my CPU just for win 11 I would have to replace my mainboard and then my GPU would bottleneck which would be, well, sad, so I would feel like I need to upgrade it too ... And well, we know where this leads. I'm just not in for this ride just for Windows 11. I already use Linux on a different drive and prepare to fully switch to Linux. It's just for gaming that I still use Windows and I feel like Linux could really "profit" from Microsofts decision to ditch Windows 10 under this conditions.

If there just was a way to micro pay for a single article. But no, it always has to be subscription based.
