There are two things worth pointing out about upscaling in #AssassinCreed Black Flag Resynced. 1. Incorrect resolution scaling with Balanced and Performance modes: Using Balanced or Performance with any upscaler causes the game's Resolution Scale (output resolution) to drop, which also lowers the internal render resolution. As a result, these modes apply incorrect scaling and the image quality is noticeably worse than it should be. For now, the workaround is to set the Resolution Scale to 100% and manually adjust the Max Dynamic Resolution (internal resolution) to match the expected scaling for Balanced or Performance mode. 2. The game defaults to the older DLSS 3 CNN model: By default, the game uses the older DLSS 3 Preset E. While it's still a fine option, it doesn't match the image quality of the DLSS 4 Transformer model (Preset K) or the newer DLSS 4.5 (Preset L and M). So I highly recommend forcing at least Preset K through the NVIDIA App (or another tool). Even on RTX 20/30 series GPUs, with Preset K, you can maintain the same performance as before while getting better image quality by using a lower upscaling mode, like Balanced instead of Quality. Hopefully Ubisoft Support fixes the scaling issue and adds an in-game option to choose between DLSS 3, DLSS 4, and DLSS 4.5.

During DLSS 5 Hands-On Video, YouTube creator Hot Hardware asked Nvidia employees this question about the computational cost of DLSS 5 when you move around in the game and it really caught my eye on how they hesitated on showing any DLSS 5 footage during motion. Every time that he moved the character, he would turn off DLSS 5 first then move to a different in-game location and then turn it on, or if DLSS 5 was turned on the movement was very slow and controlled. I know this is still work in progress, but it really begs the question "why wouldn't they show any this?" or "why show DLSS 5 this early?" I tried freezing some shots when another character is in motion to check if there are any artifacts when DLSS 5 is turned on. As suspected, I did come across some artifacts with UI elements, character popping out of the UI element and ghosting/artifacts behind the character. Its still not the best way to judge these small details that you can clearly see if a footage is recorded in-game, but then again its not like Nvidia provided any of them during DLSS 5 marketing campaign. Whenever this is still going to be present by the time DLSS 5 launches remains to be seen, however as of right now it doesn't look like it will handle fast-paced motion quite well and I don't know how well this "controlled AI-generated" rendering will scale to weaker GPUs in the RTX 50 series

Looks like on the visual side, the engine upgrade for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl will focus on two main aspects: -Overhauled lighting, improving Lumen's indirect lighting and reflections, as well as direct lighting and shadows. -Reworked Landscape and Foliage, which will look denser and more natural. These are all great additions, but I'm more interested in the performance side, especially CPU performance, which was a major issue at launch. I'm planning to cover the new update when it launches, with comparisons between the day-one version (if I can access it) and the newest build, along with the usual in-depth look at the graphics settings and how they affect the visuals and performance. #Stalker2HeartOfChornobyl

Videodrome (1983) 🕯️📹 Released on February 4, 1983, “Videodrome” faced a difficult theatrical run due to its transgressive content but eventually found a massive second life through home video and high-quality restorations. The film opened in 600 theaters across North America. It debuted at number 8 on the box office charts, earning approximately $1.19 million in its opening weekend. It was a significant commercial "bomb," grossing a total of $2.12 million against a budget of roughly $5.95 million. Director David Cronenberg noted that the film was difficult to categorize, neither fitting clearly as an "art-house" film nor a standard "exploitation" horror flick. Universal Pictures executives later expressed regret for giving it a wide release rather than treating it as a specialized art film. Home video was instrumental in transitioning “Videodrome” from a financial failure to a revered cult classic. The film was released on VHS and Betamax in the 1980s by companies like CIC Video. In the UK, early versions were heavily censored—cut by nearly three minutes—due to the "video nasty" moral panic of the era. The film's critical status was cemented with its inclusion in the Criterion Collection, which released a landmark DVD in 2004 and a Blu-ray in 2010. These editions featured the "unrated" version and extensive documentaries on its groundbreaking prosthetic effects. Arrow Video released a highly praised dual-format (Blu-ray/DVD) set in the UK with new restorations and archival content in 2015. New 4K restorations, approved by Cronenberg, were released to theaters and home media, further enhancing the film's "techno-surrealist" visuals for modern audiences. Today, the film is widely available for digital streaming on platforms like Peacock and for purchase through boutique labels.

‼️‼️🇺🇲 BIG | The USA for the first time shot down a fiber-optic drone The American company Epirus reported a significant breakthrough in the field of countering drones. Its microwave system "Leonidas" for the first time hit a drone with fiber-optic control - one of the most difficult targets for modern electronic warfare means. Previously, the complex had already hit a swarm of 49 drones, but the new test was particularly significant. In December 2025, at a closed test range of the US Army, the system was able to disable a fiber-optic UAV, depriving it of control and causing an uncontrolled fall. Fiber-optic drones, which are widely used today, including in the Ukrainian theater of operations, do not use radio control channels. The signal is transmitted via a thin fiber-optic cable, which makes such drones extremely difficult to detect and suppress. In a report by the US Army in 2024, such drones were called "one of the main threats to air defense systems and anti-drone warfare". The CEO of Epirus noted that the mass spread of fiber-optic UAVs has become a turning point in the evolution of unmanned warfare and has revealed a serious gap in anti-drone defense systems - a gap that "Leonidas" is designed to close. In 2025, Epirus received a contract for $43.5 million for the supply of two second-generation "Leonidas" systems. Its range of destruction is more than twice that of the first version; a 30% increase in power; there are built-in high-energy batteries; a reduction in dependence on external power supply. The system can be installed on: Stryker 8×8 armored vehicles, light tactical vehicles, other mobile platforms. See the latest updates with us: Visioner

Jensen Huang was 40 in 2003 and held 25% of a $10 billion market. Someone asked him how he spends his time. “Not sleeping is a good choice. It creates more time when you don’t sleep.” He walks into the office and tells his admin to wipe the calendar, because a CEO’s day belongs to everyone else and he takes it back by force. Then he goes and finds customers, not to sell them anything but to ask what NVIDIA is getting wrong. The rest of it he spends in the cafeteria at lunch and dinner, and people kept telling him it was strange for a CEO to eat with everyone. He said you can’t set a culture through CNN or a magazine profile, so it moves 1 person at a time. Then the question turned to competition and he named Intel, Sony, and ATI in Canada. And then he said the obvious ones were not the problem. The company that would hurt NVIDIA was still sitting in a classroom, in ideas nobody had found yet, in a change in what people care about. 9 years later 2 grad students trained AlexNet on 2 GTX 580 gaming cards and dropped the ImageNet error rate to 15.3%. Both of them were in school in 2003. They didn’t kill NVIDIA they turned it into a $4 trillion company. He guessed right about the students and wrong about the side.

First of its kind? New feature in Ghostty: a web-inspector-style "terminal inspector" targeted at CLI, TUI developers. Built right into the terminal, you can see a live view of terminal state, keyboard events, escape sequences, and much much more. 👻💖 Video tour below. Similar to Firebug with Firefox, I'm hoping this helps usher in a new era of develop-ability for terminal applications by making it much much easier to understand what is going on. When the inspector is not in use, there is no perceivable performance impact (benchmarks show the same). When the inspector is in use, the terminal it is inspecting slows down to about half speed due to the overhead. But this only impacts the terminal being inspected. This is a really early version of the inspector. The data organization is kind of messy, its mostly read-only information right now, and there is a lot more information I want to surface. The next step is making a lot of this data read-write so you can actually modify the terminal live (similar to modifying HTML/CSS live in a web inspector) to trial-and-error some changes. This is just the beginning. 😎 Follow along Ghostty development here:

🚨 CN PLAYERS ARE ALREADY EXPERIMENTING WITH DLSS 5 IN NTE. This is NOT the official NTE DLSS 5 release, so keep that in mind. Some CN players have been testing an unofficial pre-release DLSS 5 build on RTX 50 Series GPUs, and the results are honestly fascinating. 👀 The biggest difference isn't just sharper graphics. DLSS 5 can dramatically change how the game renders: ✅ Skin ✅ Hair ✅ Materials ✅ Lighting ✅ Shadows ✅ Fabric ✅ Character depth In some scenes NTE starts looking MUCH more realistic. But it definitely isn't perfect yet. Players are also reporting: ⚠️ Characters looking too realistic or "plastic" ⚠️ Stronger AI-reconstructed appearance in shadows ⚠️ Visual artifacts ⚠️ Occasional instability ⚠️ Extremely heavy GPU requirements And that's important because this experimental version has NOT been properly optimized or adapted for NTE yet. The finished version could look very different. What makes this especially interesting is that NTE is already OFFICIALLY confirmed to receive DLSS 5 later. So I'm not looking at these tests as "this is what NTE will look like." I'm looking at them as a very early glimpse of what this technology could potentially do once Hotta and NVIDIA properly integrate it. And THAT has me extremely curious. 🔥 Would you want NTE characters to become more realistic like this, or should Hotta preserve the current anime look as much as possible? #NTE #NevernessToEverness #NTEネバエバ #NTECreator

TurboEdit Instant text-based image editing discuss: We address the challenges of precise image inversion and disentangled image editing in the context of few-step diffusion models. We introduce an encoder based iterative inversion technique. The inversion network is conditioned on the input image and the reconstructed image from the previous step, allowing for correction of the next reconstruction towards the input image. We demonstrate that disentangled controls can be easily achieved in the few-step diffusion model by conditioning on an (automatically generated) detailed text prompt. To manipulate the inverted image, we freeze the noise maps and modify one attribute in the text prompt (either manually or via instruction based editing driven by an LLM), resulting in the generation of a new image similar to the input image with only one attribute changed. It can further control the editing strength and accept instructive text prompt. Our approach facilitates realistic text-guided image edits in real-time, requiring only 8 number of functional evaluations (NFEs) in inversion (one-time cost) and 4 NFEs per edit. Our method is not only fast, but also significantly outperforms state-of-the-art multi-step diffusion editing techniques.

The reason why Reflections in GTA 6 look noisy and blurry isn't because Rockstar Games doesn't know how to do them or that a $2 billion budget magically fixes this. It all comes down to the GPU in current gen consoles, these consoles don't have the power they need to render high resolution Ray Traced reflections in real-time and corners had to be cut. Here I'm running GTA 5 enhanced for PC at ultra settings to show you how good and clean the reflections look if you have high-end and recent hardware that have AI upscaling to make this possible. That being said, The PS5 Pro console is much more powerful compared to the base PS5 (the footage which GTA 6 was captured) offering higher resolution, 45% faster rendering, 2X-3X better Ray Tracing performance and PSSR upscaling. With the PS5 Pro, it will have significantly better looking and sharper reflections somewhat close to what GTA 5 Enhanced reflections look like on a gaming PC at high settings. However, the ultimate experience will still be on PC when GTA 6 launches, allowing for the highest quality Ray Tracing or even Path Tracing if Rockstar Games decides to implement it.

"'Zardoz' (1974) was too ambitious for its own good, but it is the ambition, its engagement with important ideas that redeems it. Despite its weaknesses, there are some good scenes & it was technically innovative in its day." --- John Boorman Full Excerpt: "With our meagre budget, all the extensive special effects were done in the camera using old techniques, like aerial image (blending two images through a reflective glass in front of the camera) and in-camera superimpositions. The research I had done for 'The Lord of the Rings' proved invaluable. Tony Pratt was very inventive and Bill’s touches were everywhere. Bill devised graffiti for the Outlands. ‘Not to be born is best’ was one close to his heart. The absence of death made the film a meditation on death. It explored the possibilities of human evolution, and the consequences of eliminating the procreative urge, which drives so much of our lives. I shot the picture on locations close to my home and in Ardmore Studios. Christel designed the costumes and my four children appeared briefly, in a flashback to a time, a hundred years back, when there were young children in the Vortex. The script was overloaded and the production undernourished. More money would have given this vision of a future world more substance. It was too ambitious for its own good, but it is the ambition, its engagement with important ideas that redeems it. Despite its weaknesses, there are some good scenes and it was technically innovative in its day. Geoffrey’s work is uniformly excellent. (...) Fox did an honest job in promoting 'Zardoz' but it crashed at the box office. Reviews were at best lukewarm, at worst scathing. It came and went, but gradually gathered a cult following. Whenever it showed in America, devotees would show up, often travelling long distances in a hired bus. The Immortals baked loaves of green bread: whenever I checked into a hotel in New York or Los Angeles, a green loaf would be awaiting me." ('Adventures of a Suburban Boy', John Boorman, 2003)

"'Zardoz' (1974) was too ambitious for its own good, but it is the ambition, its engagement with important ideas that redeems it. Despite its weaknesses, there are some good scenes & it was technically innovative in its day." --- John Boorman Full Excerpt: "With our meagre budget, all the extensive special effects were done in the camera using old techniques, like aerial image (blending two images through a reflective glass in front of the camera) and in-camera superimpositions. The research I had done for 'The Lord of the Rings' proved invaluable. Tony Pratt was very inventive and Bill’s touches were everywhere. Bill devised graffiti for the Outlands. ‘Not to be born is best’ was one close to his heart. The absence of death made the film a meditation on death. It explored the possibilities of human evolution, and the consequences of eliminating the procreative urge, which drives so much of our lives. I shot the picture on locations close to my home and in Ardmore Studios. Christel designed the costumes and my four children appeared briefly, in a flashback to a time, a hundred years back, when there were young children in the Vortex. The script was overloaded and the production undernourished. More money would have given this vision of a future world more substance. It was too ambitious for its own good, but it is the ambition, its engagement with important ideas that redeems it. Despite its weaknesses, there are some good scenes and it was technically innovative in its day. Geoffrey’s work is uniformly excellent. (...) Fox did an honest job in promoting 'Zardoz' but it crashed at the box office. Reviews were at best lukewarm, at worst scathing. It came and went, but gradually gathered a cult following. Whenever it showed in America, devotees would show up, often travelling long distances in a hired bus. The Immortals baked loaves of green bread: whenever I checked into a hotel in New York or Los Angeles, a green loaf would be awaiting me." ('Adventures of a Suburban Boy', John Boorman, 2003)

Here's everything we know about Nvidia's "greatest leap in graphics since real-time ray tracing" You can see Digital Foundry's jaw drop in this reaction after they just saw DLSS 5.0: - Will ship in Fall of 2026! - Demo ran 4k on 2 5090's but is already running on single GPU in their labs. - Will run and ship on single GPUs. - Doesn't change the scene or geo, just relights it super accurately. - Nvidia say they look at this as trying to anticipate the original, fully realized vision of the game. - Works on environments, not just characters. - Todd Howard has signed off on it, saying it's how he wanted Starfield to be seen. - Developer can tune DLSS 5 lighting. - You can apply to games as primitive as Minecraft, it's not just for high end games. - Developers are already on board. - Should scale with output resolutions. "I don't think I've seen a demo as astonishing as this..."

"#AI will never create clean meshes" AI 👇 This is the new #AI model from NVIDIA called Meshtron (jeez what a name 😅). It generates meshes of complex 3D objects closely resembling those created by professional artists. It opens the door to a more realistic generation of detailed 3D assets for animation, gaming, and virtual environments. The current version accepts the following control inputs: - Point cloud: Determines the shape of the output mesh. - Face count: Determines the density of the output mesh. - Quad ratio: Switches between quad and triangle tessellation. - Creativity: Can be adjusted to generate extra details in the model. Meshtron can either serve as a stand-alone remesher to improve the quality of existing models, or be used in tandem with a text-to-3D or image-to-3D model to generate artist-grade meshes from scratch.

They did it! Aalo Atomics is a remarkable company and team that has rocketed from just starting as a company about 2 1/2 years ago here in Austin with the goal of changing the energy world to proving their new Aalo-X Critical Test Reactor can safely go critical and demonstrate sustained and controlled nuclear fission! And, they did it in the 4th of July! What a way to celebrate! I was fortunate to be there and see the team working at their best! Watch this company closely … I am sure you will hear a lot more about them in the months and years to come! Congrats!

(1) 🧵 In the United States, Mike Flynn is the most well-known and politically influential Christian Nationalist. During a recent gathering at John Hague's church, General Mike Flynn declared to a conservative audience at a ReAwaken event: "If we want to have a nation under God, as we must, we need to have one religion. A nation under God and a religion under God, right? All of us working together." Which religion is Mike Flynn referring to? Who is responsible for this "one religion?" Who will determine the doctrinal positions and what is considered against the accepted teachings of this "one religion?" Are there any consequences for not adhering to the pronouncements of this religion? Mike Flynn did not state, "We hope to regain this nation's devotion to God by spreading peace, grace, and love through the teachings of the Gospel of Jesus Christ." No. Mike Flynn claimed that we must have one religion under God in the United States. However, Mike Flynn never specifies which religion he is referring to in his ambiguous statement. What religion is Mike Flynn alluding to? During another stop on the ReAwaken America tour, Mike Flynn led thousands of unsuspecting men and women in a prayer led by Elizabeth Clare Prophet, a Theosophical, Gnostic, Hermetic Priestess. Elizabeth Clare Prophet prayed: "I am the instrument of those sevenfold rays and archangels! And I will not back down. I will take my stand. I will not be afraid to speak. I will serve as God's instrument, regardless of his will. Here I am, with God's help! In the name of Archangel Michael and his legions, I am born free and will remain free. I will not be enslaved by any enemy, both within and outside." General Mike Flynn prayed: "We are your instruments of those sevenfold rays and all your archangels, every single one of them. We will not back down, we will stand our ground. We will not be afraid to speak. We will serve as your instruments, no matter your will. In your name and the name of your legions, we are born free and will remain free. We will not be enslaved by any enemy, both within and outside, with God's help." General Mike Flynn led unsuspecting and well-intentioned Christians through a prayer from a Theosophical Priestess, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, altering the prayer from the singular "I am" to the plural "We are." The prayer, which first appeared in Elizabeth Clare Prophet’s book where she claimed to have channeled the Archangel Michael during EC Prophet’s “The Flame of Freedom Speaks” conference in 1984 (see more below). Prophet and Flynn’s prayer refers to "those sevenfold rays." According to one of EC Prophet's greatest influencers, Alice Bailey, each Ray is an expression of the Hindu Trinity or the Gnostic/Hermetic-influenced Seven Sephiroth of Kabbalah.A ray is but a name for a particular force or type of energy, with an emphasis on the quality that force exhibits, rather than the form aspect it creates. This is a true definition of a ray." (Esoteric Psychology, Vol. I, p.315). Alice Bailey states that each Ray is an expression of the Hindu Trinity or the Gnostic/Hermetic-influenced Seven Sephiroth of Kabbalah. "Ray I: The Ray of Will and Power Ray II: The Ray of Love-Wisdom Ray III: The Ray of Active Intelligence and Adaptability (also known as The Ray of Creative Intelligence) Ray IV: The Ray of Harmony through Conflict (also known as The Ray of Harmony, Beauty, and Art) Ray V: The Ray of Concrete Knowledge or Science Ray VI: The Ray of Devotion and Abstract Idealism Ray VII: The Ray of Ceremonial Order or Magic" To reiterate, General Mike Flynn had unsuspecting American Christians repeat, word-for-word, a "prayer" that was channeled through a Theosophic Priestess and had origins in Gnostic and Hermetic teachings. This is "MAGA" Christian Nationalism. The following video is part of a presentation that I gave at the "With Liberty and Freedom for All" conference in July of 2023 alongside James Lindsay, anti-Communist , Xi Van Fleet , Bill Roach , Jon Benzinger , @AndrewNWoodard Glenn Beck Charlie Kirk

"But what is a mental image? Not for the last time, I got caught up, when I was in graduate school, in a raging controversy called the imagery debate. And this was a debate over the format of mental imagery. Now, everyone reports the experience of a mental picture, and that’s the way we describe it in English. But, of course, there isn’t a real picture in the brain. It isn’t as if there’s a little man sitting in a theater who’s looking at a screen. The behaviorists were right about this. How do we make sense of what’s going on in people’s heads when they say they have a mental picture? The easiest way to make sense of it is to use the concept from computer science of an image file—basically, an array of pixels, as we would now call them. And my graduate advisor, Stephen Kosslyn, came up with what at the time was a revolutionary theory: that images were like image files in a computer." I'll be saying more about the workings of the human mind in February 2026 in Australia and New Zealand. Thinkable
