France is a lie schemed up by the British monarchy in the 1400s to reinforce traditional power structures via a common enemy.

I was thinking between 7600 XT and 7700 XT or 4060 and 4060 TI.

GPU alone would cost more than the console, if you’re building a pc.

There's not many models that expensive. A comparable GPU to the PS5 Pro's is around half the cost

I don't see the humor. Maybe the punchline takes a slong time

so my friend asked me to explain whats an rss feed in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev

Something being "old" is totally unrelated to whether it's trendy. See: virtually every food and fashion trend.

What's the reason for high refresh rates? (lemmy.keychat.org)

I was reading an article on the new LG display with a refresh rate of 7680Hz and it says:

While a typical refresh rate for a monitor might be 60Hz-240Hz, an outdoor display designed to be viewed from a distance needs to be much higher

The idea that there's an intrinsic link between refresh rate and viewing distance is new to me and feels unintuitive. I can understand the need for high brighteness for far view distance. I also could understand refresh rate mattering for a non-persistent (CRT) display. But for an Led display surely you can see it far away even if it refreshes once a second?

Refresh rate normally needs to be high enough to avoid pixels "jumping" between refreshes on high resolution displays, so wouldn't higher view distances allow you to decrease the refresh rate?

Is the article just spouting bullshit? Or is there an actual link between refresh rate and view distance?

This can also save you shoveling/plowing your driveway, simply drive over the accumulated snow at high speed. Make sure to avoid getting stuck however.
