It looks like the game only renders correctly when DLSS is enabled and the internal resolution is below 1080p. Above that threshold, a lighting pass is missing. This explains why DLSS doesn’t perform as expected at 1440p or lower, since performance is impacted by the extra lighting pass. It also matches why Digital Foundry saw a bigger boost, since they tested DLSS at 4K. and It explains why DLAA looks worse than DLSS Quality at 1440p or below. Big thanks to ハイ／🌼 and yeradd for the info.

Still obsessing over #Saiyaara and might watch it again, but this movie draws a special message evidently & clearly that: if a “Man” has to stay and make things work, he will go to any extent to ensure it, to keep his “Woman”, that’s the only kind of love I understand! Also thanks Mohit Suri for no sad endings, plus that scene when Krish holds Vaani close to him during bike ride is my favourite and the other one is when he drapes her saree before their special moment - a new beginning! Too good! This was like reigniting love and passion back to cinema, which was NEEDED!!! P.S. I clearly enjoy watching these minute details - gestures of love! 🥰 (Talking about “men” in love, not “manchild” or “F-bois” or “boys”, coz real men takes commitment seriously!)

Venezuela's experience with hyperinflation is a real eye-opener on how quickly things can go south when inflation gets out of hand. It's like watching your money turn into nothing right before your eyes, which is exactly what happened with the bolívar. Here's what other countries might take away from this: First off, don't put all your economic eggs in one basket. Venezuela leaned too heavily on oil, and when oil prices tanked, so did their economy. Countries should mix it up, invest in different industries so they're not riding the wave of just one commodity or sector. Then there's the money printing story. If you just keep printing money to cover your debts or fund your government, you're asking for trouble. It's like trying to fill a bathtub with the plug out – the water (or money, in this case) just keeps disappearing, and that's inflation for you. Also, having a central bank that can do its job without politicians breathing down its neck can make a big difference. It's about keeping the economy in check without the panic of election cycles or political whims. And let's not forget good governance. Venezuela's economic crisis was made worse by corruption and mismanagement. If those in power aren't playing by the rules, the whole economy suffers. It's like building a house with rotten wood; it might look okay at first, but it won't last. The social fallout from this crisis shows us that when the economy crashes, it's not just about numbers. People's lives are turned upside down – they can't afford food or medicine. Countries need to have safety nets in place, like strong social programs, to catch folks when they fall. Lastly, using dollars instead of bolívares in Venezuela tells us that while pegging your currency to a stable one like the dollar can calm things down quickly, it's a double-edged sword. You might stabilize, but you also give up control over your own money game, which can be risky down the line. So, Venezuela's story is a wake-up call: diversify your economy, manage your money wisely, keep politics out of your central bank, ensure your leaders are playing fair, and always remember that behind every economic decision, there are real people whose lives are affected.

Cal AI might be the most viral health app this year. 8M+ downloads, projected to do $30M revenue this year. Built by two teenagers. Everyone's using it. But nobody's talking about the fact that their AI is completely broken... To the point where users are manually correcting EVERY meal. • Bowl of grapes: 60 cal estimate (actually ~260) • 4 boiled eggs: 1,010 cal estimate (actually ~300) • Meat portions: consistently off by 50% These aren't my words, but the reviews you can see for yourself on App Store and other places. If the whole USP is saving time vs manual logging, and you still have to correct everything... what's the point? What Cal AI did get right: Distribution. • Viral TikTok content • Smart influencer partnerships • 8M downloads in under a year They absolutely crushed GTM. But the product doesn't work lol. The gap between the "90% accuracy" claim vs the actual user experience kills trust. And in health apps, trust is everything. This is the problem with AI apps across the board right now. Everyone's racing to ship fast and go viral. Nobody's asking: "Does this actually solve the problem?" Distribution > product quality is a losing game. As a result, you're bound to encounter problems: 1. Training data doesn't match real-world variety 2. No depth sensing for portion size 3. Poor training data on homemade meals 4. Zero context (is that chicken grilled or fried?) You only get fast & inaccurate answers. This is why, when I started building my own recipe app, I looked at Cal and other AI nutrition apps and noticed that being accurate was the biggest factor. Here's how we're building Nonna differently: ✓ Multi-model AI (different models for different foods) ✓ User feedback loop to improve estimates ✓ Manual override that actually trains the system ✓ Ship when it works, not when it's "good enough" If the AI can't nail it, we're not shipping it. But accuracy alone is boring. So we're also adding some additional features that make you want to use it daily: • Fridge Story: shareable infographic of your fridge contents • Mystery Ingredient: weekly cooking challenges • Cuisine Spin: random inspiration when you're stuck • Expectation vs Reality: before/after photo collages Tl;dr: Distribution gets downloads. Product keeps users. Cal got millions of downloads. How many people still use it daily after manually correcting every meal for a week? Viral marketing with a broken product = expensive way to disappoint people.

The recent events surrounding Michael Ma, a Canadian politician who crossed the floor from the Conservative Party to the Liberal Party, have raised significant concerns about the integrity of Canadian democracy and the potential for foreign interference. Ma's participation in the 40th Anniversary Celebration of the Confederation of Toronto Chinese Canadian Organizations (CTCCO), an event marked by overt symbols of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) such as red scarves and the singing of the Chinese national anthem, suggests a troubling alignment with foreign interests that contradicts his role as a Canadian parliamentarian. This event, which took place on November 30, 2025, is not an isolated incident but part of a broader pattern of activities linked to the CCP's United Front Work Department, an entity known for its efforts to influence overseas Chinese communities and, by extension, the politics of host countries. The timing of Ma's defection, reportedly planned a week in advance, coinciding with the release of this video, fuels suspicion that his move was not merely a change of political allegiance but possibly a calculated maneuver influenced by external pressures or incentives. The CTCCO, despite its stated purpose of uniting Chinese Canadians, has been implicated in activities that align with CCP interests, including alleged interference in Canadian elections. Reports from credible sources, such as The Globe and Mail and the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP), have documented how such organizations serve as conduits for foreign influence, often operating in a "grey zone" where their actions are not illegal but become problematic when they involve hidden foreign state involvement or funding. The presence of Ma at this event, therefore, raises questions about whether he was aware of, or complicit in, these activities, and whether his defection was part of a larger strategy to undermine Canadian political processes. Canadians should be deeply suspicious and skeptical of these developments because they threaten the very foundation of democratic integrity. The idea that a politician could be a plant, mole, or spy, sending sensitive information back to the CCP about the inner workings of the Conservative Party, is not merely speculative but is supported by a pattern of behavior and associations that cannot be ignored. The CCP's history of espionage and influence operations, as detailed in various intelligence reports, includes targeting public officials across all levels of government, and the Canadian government has been criticized for being slow to react to these threats. Ma's actions, therefore, must be viewed within this context, where the potential for him to have been an agent of foreign influence, gathering and relaying information, cannot be dismissed lightly. The stench of impropriety is palpable when considering the broader implications of Ma's defection and the Liberal Party's acceptance of him despite these red flags. The Liberal Party's move to within one seat of a majority government through Ma's defection benefits them politically, but it also raises questions about whether they were aware of his background and chose to overlook it for strategic gain. This scenario suggests a disturbing possibility that foreign interference could be manipulating Canadian politics at the highest levels, with politicians potentially acting as unwitting or willing pawns in a game of geopolitical chess. The lack of transparency and the hurried nature of Ma's defection, combined with the video evidence of his participation in a CCP-aligned event, do not add up to a narrative of coincidence but rather one of calculated coordination.

I would like to explain the latest batch of viral videos I'm working on to the bemused brainrot-curious reader who is not familiar with "the culture". Why are these characters, mixed with this song, going viral? It's all about connecting infinite referential mirrors. What makes this video interesting are not its individual parts but the signifier links it draws. Let's look at the individual parts: ONE: The song is a Brazilian funk or "pancadão" song called MC Lan e MC WM - Sua Amiga Vou Pegar, these days part of what's broadly referred as Brazilian phonk or just phonk (not to be confused with the original phonk, a Memphis-derived genre from the early 2010s built around chopped Three 6 Mafia samples, cowbells and lo-fi tape hiss and etc. The Brazilian version comes an entirely different lineage and got its name adapted from “funk” to “phonk” exclusively because the names sounded similar. It has a similarly menacing posture but swaps the rap cadence for funk's 4/4 with kicks on 1 and 3 rhythm and a much heavier, distorted 808 synth sound). Phonk is often used for its exaggerated reverb feeling bass lines to signify power, style or simply "aura", which you can take as a shorthand for poise, coolness, being de-bon-air and a general detached positive feeling of high status. Aura. Because most users cannot understand the Portuguese lyrics (which are often quite vulgar and sexual), the singing takes the characteristic of a chant, something to be appreciated entirely for its sound, texture and gravitas. The vocals are just another instrument where you can appreciate the menace and swagger of the delivery directly without the cognitive friction of meaning. Non-Portuguese-speaking audiences are not missing anything they were supposed to get, they get “the vibe” that matters, which is not lyrical. These songs are often paired with (male) characters that are taken to display these traits like American Psycho's Patrick Bateman (yes, yes I know that’s the opposite of what you should feel about the character), Peaky Blinder's Thomas Shelby and a menagerie of anime characters like Satoru Gojo (Jujutsu Kaisen), Yujiro Hanma (Baki) and Goku and, really, any male character that is just a little bit cool. TWO: The man in the suit is a minor Family Guy character called Tom Tucker. The reference comes from a scene where Meg sees him walking through her school and says "It's Tom Tucker from the news!” We then cut to her POV, where he is walking in slow motion with soft romantic music swelling and birds chirping, the whole love-at-first-sight trope. Then a camera crew member off-screen yells "hurry up Mr. Tucker," and we get to see he is not walking in slow motion because Meg is infatuated, he is just walking that slowly in real life. Only the music and the birds were in her head. The gag is built on the viewer recognizing the romantic-slow-motion trope, briefly accepting it as the scene's reality, and then being shown that we (and Meg) projected the trope onto what is actually just a man walking very slowly. HA! The original gag is already about projection: a neutral image (slow walk) being assigned an external meaning (romance) by a viewer's pattern-recognition. This is what makes the edit-culture appropriation work so well. The clip got stripped of its context, paired with phonk and text overlays (AURA or “Me and the boys going to detention”), and retroactively assigned a new meaning, only this time it’s the cinematic nonchalant walk, the slow deliberate gait that signifies a man who knows he's the most important thing in the frame (ta la any 1980s Schwazerneggerian action movie hero walking away from an explosion without looking back, every yakuza boss entering a room, every western gunslinger approaching the duel). The edit is ostensibly projecting a trope onto a neutral image. The first projection was romance; the second projection is aura. Family Guy clips and gifs are easy to access and repost, which makes it a readily available and easy to use building block. The show has, through sheer volume of output and over two decades of YouTube and cable TV saturation, become a kind of public-domain visual library, a default vocabulary that any editor can pull from knowing the audience will recognize the source without having to be told, and we can just keep loading meaning onto it. THREE: The character in the background is Tom, from Tom and Jerry, doing a pose made famous by an iShowSpeed fan who encountered him during a livestream. By quickly and correctly identifying Speed by his full legal name ("Darren Jason Watkins Jr"), she showcased herself to be a true fan, which he responded to with his characteristic exaggerated reactions. The pose the girl hit, with the knowing look to the camera, produced a perfect “aura moment” complete commitment, zero irony, the unshakeable conviction that what she was doing was the coolest possible thing to do. As a result, the clip then got endlessly edited with "aura 🥶🥶🥶" captions to canonize it. Aura, in this lexicon, is not granted by the universe; it is summoned by the person's own belief that they have it and by displaying the correct attitude. Tom is also dressed as the previously mentioned Thomas Shelby from Peaky Blinders, which is itself a double signifier. The name match (“Thomas”, get it?) and the suit-and-flat-cap costume turn the cartoon cat into a stand-in for the perhaps most used "high-aura" male character of the past decade, the brooding gangster patriarch whose every cigarette drag has been set to phonk, cinematic scores and electronic music a thousand times over. On top of that, he is made entirely out of chrome, a popular trope of asking ChatGPT (one of the few AI tools people have easy and broad access to) to render things out of very high quality materials to indicate "rarity" or "status" like diamonds, platinum and etc. A sign that itself descends from a longer lineage of in-game cosmetic rarity tiers (League of Legends, MMOs, various skin economy freemium game, the Fortnite battle pass, the Pokémon shiny, dacha games and etc) where material finish is the visual shorthand of value. So "chrome" or "platinum" Tom on top of all previous signifiers signals a “maximized” or “maxxd” version. The image is suppose to invoke the superlative highest possible tier, rarest-drop, legendary-rarity version of aura, the way a kid in a playground would describe their dad as not just strong but the strongest in the world. FOUR: Finally, the background black hole calls back to the original Tom image, where he is surrounded by the universe itself, having ascended. The character has transcended the diegetic frame of his own cartoon and now exists at a cosmological scale, with the black hole standing in for the kind of unmotivated, vibes-based "cosmic" imagery that has become the default background for any video trying to signify that something Big is happening (the same visual motif that has powered comic book characters, anime transformations, video game power ups and anything wants to feel grandiose or “epic” without specifying what about). The black hole means significance in the abstract. At this point I think you understand the mechanism at play here. None of these references resolve to a stable meaning on their own. Tom Tucker is “cool” only in the very short context in which his image served as a substrate; he was convenient footage to pair with a song, and the absurdity of doing an "aura edit" on such a minor, strange character scene makes it all funnier and easier to share. Tom-the-cat is doing the aura pose > the aura pose comes from the iShowSpeed girl > the iShowSpeed girl was cool because she correctly played her part in an established bit of a large streamer with the correct timing and theatrical flair > the bit was cool because it was a shared convention unified by a popular central streamer figure > the convention existed because phonk edits had already trained this exact scenario to be read as confidence-plus-detachment as aura > the chrome finish points to AI image generation quirks > the AI image generation style can be mapped to gaming visual rarity shorthands; the gaming rarity tiers point to a much older logic of precious-metal-as-status. Each step on the referential chain is propped by the one behind it, and the one behind it is propped up by the one behind that, so on and so forth. There is no natural endpoint, the entire structure functions more akin to a network than a linked list. If you stop at any single point and ask "but why is particular signifier cool or funny or interesting”, the answer is always "because of the thing behind it.” It’s hyper-citation, Here, what matters is the structure of the whole rather than the content. This is structure is what I mean by infinite referential mirrors. The rate at which a concept is referencing, remixing and calling back to another is what’s interesting. In other words, It’s the velocity that matters. The chain of recognitions, each "I get that reference," and the cumulative effect of getting six references stacked on top of each other a short span of time gives you the feeling that you are participating in something dense and alive, because it allows you to recognize the shared meme ecosystem of the platform that you are participating in, even if only a glimpse of it. You are inside the culture rather than outside it. The brainrot-curious reader who watches this video and feels nothing, has “failed” to understand the joke because they are outside the hall of mirrors I am describing. You can only get the magic if you step in and start counting the reflections: the song, the suit, the cat, the chrome, the black hole, the transitions the video uses. You are looking at connected parts of this network of symbols and at the speed at which one image hands you off to the next. The entire thirteen-second clip is functioning as a single compressed referential payload that decompresses in the viewer's head into a small private essay exactly like this one. The video allows you to recognize yourself as someone capable of decoding it, and that recognition is the reward. That’s why media like this goes viral.

I would like to explain the latest batch of viral videos I'm working on to the bemused brainrot-curious reader who is not familiar with "the culture". Why are these characters, mixed with this song, going viral? It's all about connecting infinite referential mirrors. What makes this video interesting are not its individual parts but the signifier links it draws. Let's look at the individual parts: ONE: The song is a Brazilian funk or "pancadão" song called MC Lan e MC WM - Sua Amiga Vou Pegar, these days part of what's broadly referred as Brazilian phonk or just phonk (not to be confused with the original phonk, a Memphis-derived genre from the early 2010s built around chopped Three 6 Mafia samples, cowbells and lo-fi tape hiss and etc. The Brazilian version comes an entirely different lineage and got its name adapted from “funk” to “phonk” exclusively because the names sounded similar. It has a similarly menacing posture but swaps the rap cadence for funk's 4/4 with kicks on 1 and 3 rhythm and a much heavier, distorted 808 synth sound). Phonk is often used for its exaggerated reverb feeling bass lines to signify power, style or simply "aura", which you can take as a shorthand for poise, coolness, being de-bon-air and a general detached positive feeling of high status. Aura. Because most users cannot understand the Portuguese lyrics (which are often quite vulgar and sexual), the singing takes the characteristic of a chant, something to be appreciated entirely for its sound, texture and gravitas. The vocals are just another instrument where you can appreciate the menace and swagger of the delivery directly without the cognitive friction of meaning. Non-Portuguese-speaking audiences are not missing anything they were supposed to get, they get “the vibe” that matters, which is not lyrical. These songs are often paired with (male) characters that are taken to display these traits like American Psycho's Patrick Bateman (yes, yes I know that’s the opposite of what you should feel about the character), Peaky Blinder's Thomas Shelby and a menagerie of anime characters like Satoru Gojo (Jujutsu Kaisen), Yujiro Hanma (Baki) and Goku and, really, any male character that is just a little bit cool. TWO: The man in the suit is a minor Family Guy character called Tom Tucker. The reference comes from a scene where Meg sees him walking through her school and says "It's Tom Tucker from the news!” We then cut to her POV, where he is walking in slow motion with soft romantic music swelling and birds chirping, the whole love-at-first-sight trope. Then a camera crew member off-screen yells "hurry up Mr. Tucker," and we get to see he is not walking in slow motion because Meg is infatuated, he is just walking that slowly in real life. Only the music and the birds were in her head. The gag is built on the viewer recognizing the romantic-slow-motion trope, briefly accepting it as the scene's reality, and then being shown that we (and Meg) projected the trope onto what is actually just a man walking very slowly. HA! The original gag is already about projection: a neutral image (slow walk) being assigned an external meaning (romance) by a viewer's pattern-recognition. This is what makes the edit-culture appropriation work so well. The clip got stripped of its context, paired with phonk and text overlays (AURA or “Me and the boys going to detention”), and retroactively assigned a new meaning, only this time it’s the cinematic nonchalant walk, the slow deliberate gait that signifies a man who knows he's the most important thing in the frame (ta la any 1980s Schwazerneggerian action movie hero walking away from an explosion without looking back, every yakuza boss entering a room, every western gunslinger approaching the duel). The edit is ostensibly projecting a trope onto a neutral image. The first projection was romance; the second projection is aura. Family Guy clips and gifs are easy to access and repost, which makes it a readily available and easy to use building block. The show has, through sheer volume of output and over two decades of YouTube and cable TV saturation, become a kind of public-domain visual library, a default vocabulary that any editor can pull from knowing the audience will recognize the source without having to be told, and we can just keep loading meaning onto it. THREE: The character in the background is Tom, from Tom and Jerry, doing a pose made famous by an iShowSpeed fan who encountered him during a livestream. By quickly and correctly identifying Speed by his full legal name ("Darren Jason Watkins Jr"), she showcased herself to be a true fan, which he responded to with his characteristic exaggerated reactions. The pose the girl hit, with the knowing look to the camera, produced a perfect “aura moment” complete commitment, zero irony, the unshakeable conviction that what she was doing was the coolest possible thing to do. As a result, the clip then got endlessly edited with "aura 🥶🥶🥶" captions to canonize it. Aura, in this lexicon, is not granted by the universe; it is summoned by the person's own belief that they have it and by displaying the correct attitude. Tom is also dressed as the previously mentioned Thomas Shelby from Peaky Blinders, which is itself a double signifier. The name match (“Thomas”, get it?) and the suit-and-flat-cap costume turn the cartoon cat into a stand-in for the perhaps most used "high-aura" male character of the past decade, the brooding gangster patriarch whose every cigarette drag has been set to phonk, cinematic scores and electronic music a thousand times over. On top of that, he is made entirely out of chrome, a popular trope of asking ChatGPT (one of the few AI tools people have easy and broad access to) to render things out of very high quality materials to indicate "rarity" or "status" like diamonds, platinum and etc. A sign that itself descends from a longer lineage of in-game cosmetic rarity tiers (League of Legends, MMOs, various skin economy freemium game, the Fortnite battle pass, the Pokémon shiny, dacha games and etc) where material finish is the visual shorthand of value. So "chrome" or "platinum" Tom on top of all previous signifiers signals a “maximized” or “maxxd” version. The image is suppose to invoke the superlative highest possible tier, rarest-drop, legendary-rarity version of aura, the way a kid in a playground would describe their dad as not just strong but the strongest in the world. FOUR: Finally, the background black hole calls back to the original Tom image, where he is surrounded by the universe itself, having ascended. The character has transcended the diegetic frame of his own cartoon and now exists at a cosmological scale, with the black hole standing in for the kind of unmotivated, vibes-based "cosmic" imagery that has become the default background for any video trying to signify that something Big is happening (the same visual motif that has powered comic book characters, anime transformations, video game power ups and anything wants to feel grandiose or “epic” without specifying what about). The black hole means significance in the abstract. At this point I think you understand the mechanism at play here. None of these references resolve to a stable meaning on their own. Tom Tucker is “cool” only in the very short context in which his image served as a substrate; he was convenient footage to pair with a song, and the absurdity of doing an "aura edit" on such a minor, strange character scene makes it all funnier and easier to share. Tom-the-cat is doing the aura pose > the aura pose comes from the iShowSpeed girl > the iShowSpeed girl was cool because she correctly played her part in an established bit of a large streamer with the correct timing and theatrical flair > the bit was cool because it was a shared convention unified by a popular central streamer figure > the convention existed because phonk edits had already trained this exact scenario to be read as confidence-plus-detachment as aura > the chrome finish points to AI image generation quirks > the AI image generation style can be mapped to gaming visual rarity shorthands; the gaming rarity tiers point to a much older logic of precious-metal-as-status. Each step on the referential chain is propped by the one behind it, and the one behind it is propped up by the one behind that, so on and so forth. There is no natural endpoint, the entire structure functions more akin to a network than a linked list. If you stop at any single point and ask "but why is particular signifier cool or funny or interesting”, the answer is always "because of the thing behind it.” It’s hyper-citation, Here, what matters is the structure of the whole rather than the content.

Eben Etzebeth's post on Instagram: Hey Everyone I've been quiet, but now that my hearing is done I think I owe everyone an explanation First of all, this is not a post to show that I was not guilty, I accept guilt. I made a mistake and I'm willing to serve a suspension which I deserve. I don't want young kids who look up to the Springboks to think that it's OK to eye gouge someone, because it's not, but unfortunately mistakes happen and I made a big one for which I'm sorry. But I'd like to answer the question - why did you do such a thing? It was a mistake caused by my reaction and other factors that played a role. Slide 1: The scuffle was basically over when Wales #7 struck me with an open hand to my chin/neck area, you can see me looking at the Assistant Referee and waiting for a reaction from him (it happened fast and it's understandable that he didn't see it) without reacting yet, I got another pull on my jersey, before I go in with the similar type of action. Slide 2: You can clearly see my first point of contact is against his shoulder with an open hand, just like he did, except he got me on the chin. Another thing worth mentioning, when he struck me, I was standing still with not a lot of movement or players trying to get involved. When I went for the same open hand towards his shoulder, you'll see 2 Welsh players changing the dynamic of the entire picture as well as one of my teammates pulling Wales #7 around his neck away from my hand and where my force is going. Slide 3: Another Camera Angle So why did I post this? To try and show people how everything happened and that it was never intentional. I would never do something like this on purpose, I know what the consequences will be after playing rugby for a few years. Thanks to everyone that stood by me and thought the best of me. I'm sorry for letting you and the game down. That was my first red card since I started playing. I want it to be my last. To the people that were angry and upset with my actions, I understand - because it didn't look good on the slow motion replay and hopefully you've got a bit more context now.
