What even is "learn how to code" these days? I work in PowerShell, Shell, Docker Compose, and various xml, yml, json config files. Do I code? When I debug a particularly nasty DNS bug using netcat, dig, nsupdate and other tools it certainly feels like when I was coding Java. And when I push a CI-CD workflow to our tools git repo I work in many of the same tools as the Developers. But I'm not even sure I'd call what I do coding.

That said you can be too "dumb" (hate that word) or rather disadvantaged that you can't figure out doors and then coding is probably a step too far. But if you can grasp the English language and use it to construct sentence and describe a work task to a colleague for them to perform with it then you can certainly learn how to build at least simpler programs in a programming language, it's really not all that different. It's the language of how to tell a computer to solve a task.

At around 80 euros then for lowest power you should go Raspberry Pi, for most performance while still being low power an old business laptop is fine, and since you don't need the screen you can buy one with a broken screen.

Superior. Have you even looked at it? It's unstable at best and doesn't give much of a boost at all in most games. It's something a few hundred will try, at most. It's not ever going to be a mainstream thing. Remember most consumers barely even read reviews, let alone tech news about some hack giving some performance.

And patch? They're tricking the game to think FSR3 frame generation is DLSS3 Frame Generation, it's not really even sure it's only on the Nvidia devs...

No, and why? Because outright anti-consumer shit like that tends to leak. And if it did that would be very bad for Nvidia. Just look at the backlash Blizzard got for the Taiwan debacle or how costly it got for Google in the Epic vs Google case just recently. It's much much better to not rock the boat and go with the route of just not spending the (small) effort on making the feature work on the older cards. At the end of the day Nvidia has what? 90% market share in PC GPUs? Even though AMD is trying to be the more consumer friendly company they're not getting any results from that approach. Hell if we disregard ray tracing AMD has given significantly more FPS / $ for a looooong time without that mattering to the majority of consumers. Hell even Nvidia cards that can't really deliver decent ray tracing like the 3060 absolutely crushed AMD in sales numbers.

In the end Nvidia doesn't need to do shit but not fuck this up for themselves. Their only competitor in reality is their older cards so by not porting the cool new stuff to them they get more new cards sold. People getting FSR3 working on the old cards via hacks is a threat that is vastly smaller than the threat of bad PR if they had a strategy to outright block stuff that could benefit their older cards.

EDIT:

I wanted to add that if this was someone getting Nvidia DLSS3 Frame Generation working on the older cards then it would result in screaming internally and a sign that they kinda suck at their job. But this is FSR3 and a very unstable hack at that. It's technically impressive that they got it to work but not a real threat to Nvidia bottom line. At worst a couple hundred techy dudes don't upgrade as early because this hack holds them over a year or two. Big woop. It's not something Joe random is going to run or tinker with.

Isn't it better for the IDF/Israel if they don't catch him since hunting him down is just about the only justifiable part of this whole war? If they catch him the pressure to stop the war will just increase, but if he's still out there they can use that as a reason to continue their genocide.

How short would the war in Afganistan be if the US didn't bomb everything to shit in the opening months and instead gathered Intel and sent in a special forces unit to take Bin Laden down? But if they did that then how would the Military Industrial Complex get their billions.

I know I'm being a bit of a conspiracy nut now but it's just too convenient, isn't it?

... That's even worse in my opinion. It's not like the cards can't do it. These FSR3 hacks prove that.

DIY is the way to go. Buying NAS hardware makes 0 sense imo unless we're talking (used) SMB / Enterprise stuff. Used computer parts including a mitx board with 4 sats headers and a case that can hold 4 drives is a perfect starter. With drives up to 20 TB being rather affordable per TB these days you can get 40 TB of usable space on a RAID 10. That won't fit in the $250 budget of course, but you could start with smaller drives or, as I do, forgo RAID for now because all I store is media I can redownload anyway.

The cheapest solution if you want the most basic of starters is an old cheap used NUC with a 3.5" drive slot that you can slap an as big a drive in as you can afford and then go down the more proper DIY NAS build.

That's the wrong take here.

DLSS2 doesn't have frame generation. Nvidia refuses to add support for DLSS3 to their older cards so the open source community ported FSR3 which has frame generation (and is open source).

By all metrics DLSS3 is superior to FSR3, but that doesn't help Nvidia 3xxx/2xxx owners at all. Nvidia is a very skilled company, just greedy little absolute shits. This whole debacle mirrors G-sync vs. Freesync (which is the basis for the VESA standard VRR).

I don't, after doing the classic rm -r -f / when I meant ./ the second time I realized I'm too much of a dumbass to be allowed to use sudo without password.

Super cool that a "feature" like that could stay hidden for so long. This could potentially be really useful since modding a PS1 these days is a massive waste since it devalues the hardware but with this hack you don't need to, as long as you have a copy of Alien Isolation.

Worse, a foreign one
