This question was inspired by my hatred of Temporal Anti-Aliasing which, in many games nowadays, is poorly used as a performance bandaid. On lower resolutions it will smudge and blur the image and certain bad cases of TAA will cause visible ghosting.

Yet in spite of all this, certain games won’t let you turn it off or have hair/fur/foliage look like dogshit without it so sometimes I still use it.

    I waste time every day watching YouTube shorts.

    The way it’s designed, you can see a little bit of the next short, and the curiosity will get me, i’m always really tempted to scroll and find out what the next one is.

    I wouldn’t intentionally waste time like this, which is why i haven’t installed TikTok; but i do watch YouTube every day, and so shorts come get me where i am. And honestly, it’s a garbage experience. Part of me thinks i would probably have more fun on TikTok because their algorithm is better. Shorts keeps giving me these channels that edit bits of podcats, often MrBeast and Joe Rogan, and there’s loads of channels doing this so i keep seeing it no matter how many i block. What content i do enjoy is drowned out by a lot of trash content like that, and would probably be better in long form anyway.
