    Games dont feel very optimized anymore

    This is on purpose. Game studios decided that instead of bothering with all sorts of complex graphics hacks to get games to run fast they can just crank ray tracing and use temporal anti-aliasing. The result being that you need one of the latest generation cards to run these games at all since they don’t degrade gracefully to lower specs.

    Until very recently I was still running a 1080, which runs pretty much any game (even recent ones) at high graphics settings. As soon as a game uses ray tracing or temporal anti-aliasing it won’t even run at the lowest potato settings possible.

    The invincible should not look like this at <15fps and be a blurry mess when moving on minimum settings while halo infinite looks way better while rendering way more things on the same machine at high settings at 60fps.

    Oh! In that case: absolutely nothing. Credit cards are terrifyingly insecure. Whether or not the info is on two sides or one. Any webshop you use your credit card at can just arbitrarily charge it from then on if they feel like it.

    As far as I understand it the pin&chip system involves a challenge/response between the bank and the card. You can’t just “clone” the chip, because the secret data it contains is essentially write-only.

    Go try blender versions before 2.5 for a laugh, it’s impressive how much usability improved around then. It’s still a juggernaut of an application though so I doubt it’ll ever get easy to use. Sure did get easier though.
