Honestly I feel 3D video production is a huge missed opportunity. I don't mean YT videos played in a VR screen, but actual 360-captured videos specifically designed for VR. Would probably work for MVs.

45% improvement seems good if people buying PS5 pro, but not worth upgrading a PS5.

Why write an article on that. It's simple: more platforms, more money. Consoles are loss leaders for platform fees and exclusives, not the other way around.

Cloudflare, namecheap, GoDaddy, domain.com, they all offer dns I think. Some of them are supported by Dyndns; you can find a list of supported providers.

This is exactly why I said it may make sense for laptops, where mobile chips like rx6600 mobile will still be better performance wise, but you don't have to worry about thermal throttling with igpus. This is nice for graphics intensive tasks on the go, but with the right laptop design I think a dedicated mobile GPU will still be the better option as a mobile workstation.

If the 15in laptop is too big, there's many 14in laptops with mobile GPUs better than iGPUs; again, at the cost of increased thermal throttling. So if your goal is to play a game on battery with the laptop on your lap, and you want to optimize for price and size, then an APU will make sense.

Do you plan to replace your 1070 or use it alongside it?

Interesting. I think ccwgtv can read h264 and h265, I guess av1 would be a "bad" codec then?

What's the point of transcoding for local serving?

True, now I expect Canada to install more solar panels than China has in total.
