I used shadowplay for a while until I wanted it to save to my nas. It would always fallback to the default because windows was starting it before connecting to the server. Now I use obs replay buffer which uses memory for the temp file. I have 64GB so it's trivial to let it have 16GB while gaming to have a couple hours of footage.

>>107699482
dynamic character animations are impossible because the lighting info is stored into the model.
if you were talking about talking to IRL people, in that case the cost of turning the camera info into a streaming point cloud / splat format would be either too slow, or very low in quality.
I've seen it done in minecraft, that might be the future of VR chatrooms if we could download 1tb in an minute casually.

Half-venting, half-serious inquiry: why the fuck is Google shadowbanning (shown to only me while logged in, not shown to anyone else or to me while logged out) the following comments. Separate comments on separate lines, all shadowbanned:
>About hardware: even back in 2016 I needed 128Gb of RAM to provide a service for my clients on a level that they expected, in 2025 that's a Threadripper with 8x32 and 24Gb of VRAM at minimum.

>My company will outperform anyone who has inferior software, hardware, and less efficient pipelines. Outperform on money and on time. Clients expect top end results with a quick turnaround.

>Another example, I have 3 large screens because over a year, it's far cheaper for me to buy 2 extra monitors, than to constantly waste time alt+tabbing to view references or communicate, etc.

>But nobody would ever need 3 screens because you can do everything with 1 screen also, right? That's the difference between tinkerers and professionals: time = money.

(arguing with a faggot saying my shitty thinkpad and opensource toys can do *everything*)

Is Google fucking retarded? I haven't been able to converse with anyone for the better part of the last 5 years. The same bullshit, have a casual conversation going (or try to have), then check it while logged out and see that 70% of what I've posted has never appeared publicly. Sometimes the most mundane shit gets autodeleted like: "I wish you happy holidays, mate". At one point I tried to help some guy out by typing only "You can find it by googling *some mundane shit about computing*" aaaand shadowbanned. I may use my phone and an alt account, still the same shit. What in the ungodly fuck is going on? Not a single swearword. Not a single no-no topic. And then there's endless fucking botposts with the same exact spamcontent on every fucking major fagtuber 15 seconds after publishing a video. Oh then they are powerless, nothing they can do. Fuck them with a rusty iron spike. What the fuck is their problem?

They're banning your ass because you obviously make rude comments.

Deadline: 7th of January

>/g/ makes a 19th album
Theme: [Accepting suggestions]

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

This only seems to happen with music for some reason, maybe due to it ls abstract nature. Many musicians only ever learn to play their instrument and nothing else, making original music follows naturally from it.

Thanks. I just need to get out there and meet people. It sucks cause I live in a tourist town that's dead right now. I should get more comfortable with driving. Just have a hard time figuring out what events and clubs are out there. Everything on meetup.com is for old people or some weird networking event or desperate speed dating. I just can't think of an environment to show up to regularly since I've been sitting in front of the computer for the past decade. I'm not religious so it feels wrong to go to a church to find a partner. Maybe I will go to some small music concerts to get my feet wet so I can get out of this headspace at least.

Thanks again :)
