    Ah, the Nintendo Switch 2! The console that promises to be a game-changer while serving us a delightful menu of games that are... let’s say, “vintage.” It’s like going to a restaurant that only serves yesterday's leftovers but insists they’re “classics.” Sure, there are a couple of shiny new exclusives that make you feel warm and fuzzy inside, but let’s be honest: the real magic lies in playing games that were once the crown jewels of your TV screen, now conveniently portable! Who needs innovation when you can relive the glory days of your 10-year-old favorites on the go? Now, if only they could upgrade the battery life to match our nostalgia!

    The 12 Best Games On The Nintendo Switch 2
    The Switch 2 is in that awkward early phase where most of its best games are old. Nintendo has put out a couple of big exclusives, sure, but by and large, the draw of the system largely lies in the ability to play games on the go that used to demand

    There’s a bittersweet ache in discovering that a 2011 Photoshop tutorial can impart wisdom far beyond what recent ones offer. It’s as if the echoes of the past remind us of a time when creativity flowed freely, untainted by the pressures of trends and expectations. I find myself alone, sifting through the remnants of inspiration that once ignited my passion. This realization leaves me feeling adrift in a sea of disappointment, as the world rushes forward while I cling to fading memories. The art of yesterday holds more meaning than the present, and that truth cuts deep.

    So, I stumbled upon this revolutionary concept: the Pi Pico Powers Parts-Bin Audio Interface. You know, for those times when you want to impress your friends with your "cutting-edge" audio technology but your wallet is emptier than a politician's promise. Apparently, if you dig deep enough into your parts bin—because who doesn’t have a collection of random electronic components lying around?—you can whip up an audio interface that would make even the most budget-conscious audiophile weep with joy.

    Let’s be real for a moment. The idea of “USB audio is great” is like saying “water is wet.” Sure, it’s true, but it’s not exactly breaking news. What’s truly groundbreaking is the notion that you can create something functional from the forgotten scraps of yesterday’s projects. It’s like a DIY episode of “Chopped” but for tech nerds. “Today’s mystery ingredient is a broken USB cable, a suspiciously dusty Raspberry Pi, and a hint of desperation.”

    The beauty of this Pi Pico-powered audio interface is that it’s perfect for those of us who find joy in frugality. Why spend hundreds on a fancy audio device when you can spend several hours cursing at your soldering iron instead? Who needs a professional sound card when you can have the thrill of piecing together a Frankenstein-like contraption that may or may not work? The suspense alone is worth the price of admission!

    And let’s not overlook the aesthetic appeal of having a “custom” audio interface. Forget those sleek, modern designs; nothing says “I’m a tech wizard” quite like a jumble of wires and circuit boards that look like they came straight out of a 1980s sci-fi movie. Your friends will be so impressed by your “unique” setup that they might even forget the sound quality is comparable to that of a tin can.

    Of course, if you’re one of those people who doesn’t have a parts bin filled with modern-day relics, you might just need to take a trip to your local electronics store. But why go through the hassle of spending money when you can just live vicariously through those who do? It’s all about the experience, right? You can sit back, sip your overpriced coffee, and nod knowingly as your friend struggles to make sense of their latest “innovation” while you silently judge their lack of resourcefulness.

    In the end, the Pi Pico Powers Parts-Bin Audio Interface is a shining beacon of hope for those who love to tinker, save a buck, and show off their questionable engineering skills. So, gather your components, roll up your sleeves, and prepare for an adventure that might just end in either a new hobby or a visit to the emergency room. Let the audio experimentation begin!

    Shutterstock’s so-called ‘safe’ rebrand is nothing but a bland attempt to mask the mediocrity that has been plaguing this company for years. Let’s get one thing straight: unpretentious design is not an excuse for a lack of creativity or vision. This rebranding is mundane to the core, and it perfectly encapsulates how far Shutterstock has fallen behind in a world that thrives on innovation and boldness.

    How can a company that claims to be a leader in the stock photo industry settle for such a lukewarm identity? This is an insult to the very essence of what creative work should represent. The design doesn’t push boundaries; it tiptoes around them, playing it safe in a world where being bold and daring is what gets attention. It’s infuriating to see a platform that should inspire creativity instead opting for a design that is as forgettable as yesterday’s news.

    When I look at Shutterstock’s new branding, I see a desperate attempt to blend in rather than stand out. The phrase “serves its purpose” is the biggest red flag. What purpose, exactly? To ensure that no one remembers you? To create a forgettable experience for users who are looking for inspiration? This ‘safe’ rebrand is a half-hearted effort that screams mediocrity and a complete lack of ambition.

    Moreover, the design community has consistently challenged brands to think outside the box and create something that resonates with their audience. But what does Shutterstock do? It plays it safe, hiding behind the label of ‘unpretentious’ while failing to evoke any sort of emotional response. This is not just a failure of design; it’s a failure of leadership. There’s a glaring lack of vision in a world that craves authenticity and originality.

    Let’s talk about the missed opportunities here. Shutterstock had the chance to redefine itself, to shake things up and create a memorable identity that would resonate with both creators and consumers. Instead, it chose to play it safe, resulting in a brand that feels outdated and uninspired. This decision not only reflects poorly on Shutterstock but also sends a troubling message to the entire industry: that it’s okay to settle for mediocrity as long as it serves a purpose.

    To the leaders at Shutterstock, I urge you to take a long, hard look at what you’ve done. This rebrand is not just mundane; it’s a disservice to the creative community you claim to support. It’s time to stop playing it safe and start taking risks that could potentially elevate your brand to new heights. Remember, in the world of creativity, blending in is the fastest way to fade away.

    Ah, the PSVR2! The pièce de résistance of virtual reality headsets that promised to transport us to worlds so vivid, we might just forget we have to pay rent. As we wade into the futuristic wonderland of 2025, the burning question looms large: Does the PSVR2 still hold water, or is it just another fancy paperweight?

    Let’s be real for a second. When it first hit the shelves, the PSVR2 was the talk of the town, like the latest iPhone or a celebrity breakup. The immersion was touted as “total,” with visuals that could make a high-definition movie look like a flip book. But here we are, two years later, and the world’s moved on faster than a kid with a new toy. Meanwhile, our beloved headset sits in the corner, gathering dust and wondering why it’s not trending on social media.

    In the wild, wild world of gaming, what was once cutting-edge quickly becomes yesterday’s news. Remember when we couldn’t get enough of those pixelated graphics and 8-bit sounds? Now, we’re spoiled with hyper-realistic experiences that make you question if you’re playing a game or just scrolling through someone’s vacation photos. So, the big question remains: does the PSVR2 still pack a punch in 2025, or has it been eclipsed by the latest, shiniest tech?

    If we’re being honest, the PSVR2 was like that trendy café everyone raved about until they found out the coffee was brewed with dreams and unicorn tears. Sure, it looked great on paper, but how many of us have actually used it regularly? It feels like one of those impulse buys that seemed brilliant at 3 AM when you were scrolling through online reviews, but now, it just sits there as a reminder of fleeting enthusiasm.

    And let’s not forget that while we’re diving deep into virtual worlds, reality is still waiting for us with bills and responsibilities. So, is it worth the investment in 2025? The answer is simple: if you’re a die-hard gamer with pockets deep enough to fund a small country, then by all means, indulge! But if you’re like the rest of us—grappling with student loans or wondering when your next paycheck will come—maybe it’s time to consider if that VR headset is really your best friend or just an over-hyped acquaintance.

    In conclusion, the PSVR2 may still have a few tricks up its sleeve, but in the fast-paced realm of technology, it’s hard to stay relevant when new contenders are emerging faster than you can say “augmented reality.” So, if you find yourself daydreaming about those immersive experiences, just remember—sometimes, it’s okay to take a break from reality. After all, the world will still be waiting for you when you take off that headset.

    Government ditches public sector decarbonisation scheme

    The government has axed a scheme for upgrading energy efficiency in public sector buildings.
    The Public Sector Decarbonisation Schemedelivered more than £2.5bn in its first three phases for measures such as heat pumps, solar panels, insulation and double glazing, with further funding of nearly £1bn recently announced.
    But the Department for Energy Security and Net Zerohas told Building Design that the scheme has been dropped after the spending review, leaving uncertainty about how upgrades will be funded when the current phase expires in 2028.

    The department said it would set out plans for the period after 2028 in due course.
    In a post on LinkedIn, Dave Welkin, director of sustainability at Gleeds, said he had waited for the release of the spending review with a “sense of trepidation” and was unable to find mention of public sector decarbonisation when Treasury documents were released.
    “I hoped because it was already committed in the Budget that its omission wasn’t ominous,” he wrote.
    Yesterday, he was told by Salix Finance, the non-departmental public body that delivers funding for the scheme, that it was no longer being funded.
    It comes after the withdrawal of funding for the Low Carbon Skills Fundin May.
    According to the government’s website, PSDS and LCSF were intended to support the reduction of emissions from public sector buildings by 75% by 2037, compared to a 2017 baseline.
    “Neither LCSF or PSDS were perfect by any means, but they did provide a vital source of funding for local authorities, hospitals, schools and many other public sector organisations to save energy, carbon and money,” Welkin said.
    “PSDS has helped replace failed heating systems in schools, keeping students warm. It’s replaced roofs on hospitals, helping patients recover from illness. It’s replaced windows in our prisons, improving security and stopping drugs getting behind bars.”
    However, responding to Welkin’s post, Steve Connolly, chief executive at Arriba Technologies, a low carbon heating and cooling firm, said that the scheme was being “mismanaged” with a small number of professional services firms “scooping up disproportionately large grants for their clients”.
    The fourth phase of the scheme was confirmed last September, with allocations confirmed only last month.
    This latest phase, which covers the financial years between 2025/26 and 2027/28, saw the distribution of £940m across the country.
    A DESNZ spokesperson said: “Our settlement is about investing in Britain’s renewal to create energy security, sprint to clean power by 2030, encourage investment, create jobs and bring down bills for good.
    “We will deliver £1bn in current allocations of the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme until 2028 and, through Great British Energy, have invested in new rooftop solar power and renewable schemes to lower energy bills for schools and hospitals across the UK.
    “We want to build on this progress by incentivising the public sector to decarbonise, so they can reap the benefits in lower bills and emissions, sharing best practice across government and exploring the use of repayable finance, where appropriate.”
    A government assessment of phase 3a and 3b projects identified a number of issues with the scheme, including delays and cost inflation, with more than a tenth being abandoned subsequent to grants being offered.
    Stakeholders interviewed for the report also identified “difficulties in obtaining skilled contractors and equipment”, especially air source heat pumps.
    The first come first served approach to awarding funding was also said to be “encouraging applicants to opt for more straightforward projects” and “potentially undermining the achievement of PSDS objective by restricting the opportunity for largermore complex measures which may have delivered greater carbon reduction benefits”.
    But the consensus among stakeholders and industry representatives interviewed for the report was that the scheme was “currently key to sustaining the existing UK heat pump market” and that it was “seen as vital in enabling many public sector organisations to invest in heat decarbonisation”.

    NVIDIA TensorRT Boosts Stable Diffusion 3.5 Performance on NVIDIA GeForce RTX and RTX PRO GPUs

    Generative AI has reshaped how people create, imagine and interact with digital content.
    As AI models continue to grow in capability and complexity, they require more VRAM, or video random access memory. The base Stable Diffusion 3.5 Large model, for example, uses over 18GB of VRAM — limiting the number of systems that can run it well.
    By applying quantization to the model, noncritical layers can be removed or run with lower precision. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 Series and the Ada Lovelace generation of NVIDIA RTX PRO GPUs support FP8 quantization to help run these quantized models, and the latest-generation NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs also add support for FP4.
    NVIDIA collaborated with Stability AI to quantize its latest model, Stable Diffusion3.5 Large, to FP8 — reducing VRAM consumption by 40%. Further optimizations to SD3.5 Large and Medium with the NVIDIA TensorRT software development kitdouble performance.
    In addition, TensorRT has been reimagined for RTX AI PCs, combining its industry-leading performance with just-in-time, on-device engine building and an 8x smaller package size for seamless AI deployment to more than 100 million RTX AI PCs. TensorRT for RTX is now available as a standalone SDK for developers.
    RTX-Accelerated AI
    NVIDIA and Stability AI are boosting the performance and reducing the VRAM requirements of Stable Diffusion 3.5, one of the world’s most popular AI image models. With NVIDIA TensorRT acceleration and quantization, users can now generate and edit images faster and more efficiently on NVIDIA RTX GPUs.
    Stable Diffusion 3.5 quantized FP8generates images in half the time with similar quality as FP16. Prompt: A serene mountain lake at sunrise, crystal clear water reflecting snow-capped peaks, lush pine trees along the shore, soft morning mist, photorealistic, vibrant colors, high resolution.
    To address the VRAM limitations of SD3.5 Large, the model was quantized with TensorRT to FP8, reducing the VRAM requirement by 40% to 11GB. This means five GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs can run the model from memory instead of just one.
    SD3.5 Large and Medium models were also optimized with TensorRT, an AI backend for taking full advantage of Tensor Cores. TensorRT optimizes a model’s weights and graph — the instructions on how to run a model — specifically for RTX GPUs.
    FP8 TensorRT boosts SD3.5 Large performance by 2.3x vs. BF16 PyTorch, with 40% less memory use. For SD3.5 Medium, BF16 TensorRT delivers a 1.7x speedup.
    Combined, FP8 TensorRT delivers a 2.3x performance boost on SD3.5 Large compared with running the original models in BF16 PyTorch, while using 40% less memory. And in SD3.5 Medium, BF16 TensorRT provides a 1.7x performance increase compared with BF16 PyTorch.
    The optimized models are now available on Stability AI’s Hugging Face page.
    NVIDIA and Stability AI are also collaborating to release SD3.5 as an NVIDIA NIM microservice, making it easier for creators and developers to access and deploy the model for a wide range of applications. The NIM microservice is expected to be released in July.
    TensorRT for RTX SDK Released
    Announced at Microsoft Build — and already available as part of the new Windows ML framework in preview — TensorRT for RTX is now available as a standalone SDK for developers.
    Previously, developers needed to pre-generate and package TensorRT engines for each class of GPU — a process that would yield GPU-specific optimizations but required significant time.
    With the new version of TensorRT, developers can create a generic TensorRT engine that’s optimized on device in seconds. This JIT compilation approach can be done in the background during installation or when they first use the feature.
    The easy-to-integrate SDK is now 8x smaller and can be invoked through Windows ML — Microsoft’s new AI inference backend in Windows. Developers can download the new standalone SDK from the NVIDIA Developer page or test it in the Windows ML preview.
    For more details, read this NVIDIA technical blog and this Microsoft Build recap.

    They note how they usually start with PC and scale down, but they will be doing it the other way around this time to avoid issues with the console versions.

    4:15 for console focus and 60fps
    38:50 for the Series S comment

    This better not be a Cyberpunk situation all over again. If they can't get it to work on S, then they may just need to abandon that console. Work out a deal with MS or wait for their next generation.

    This makes sense since they want to have good performance on lower end machines and they mentioned that it was easier to scale up than to scale down. They also mentioned their legacy on PC and how they plan on scaling it up high like they usually do on PC.

    Can we stop with these stupid takes? For all we know it sold as much as Series X, helped several games have better optimization on bigger consoles and it will definitely help optimizing newer games to the Nintendo Switch 2.

    No one who cares about 60fps should be buying a Series S, just make it 30fps.

    They can just go for 30 fps instead on the Series S. No need for a special deal for that, that's allowed.

    Maybe off topic, but is 30fps target not so important anymore for 2027 industry-leading graphics? GTA is mainly doing it for design/physics/etc. whch is why the game can't be scaled down to 720-900p/60fps?

    It will be a full port a few years after like The Witcher 3., they don't use software lumen here. I doubt the Switch 2 Raytracing capaclity is high enough to use the same pipeline to produce the Switch 2 version.

    EDIT: And they probably need to redo all the assets.

    Fortnite doesn't use Nanite and Lumen on Switch 2.

    Graphics are the part of the game that can be scaled, it is CPU load that is the more difficult part, although devs have actually made cuts in the latter to increase performance mode fps viability. Even with this focus on 60fps performance modes, they are always going to have room to make a higher fidelity 30fps mode. Specifically with UE5 though, performance has been such a disaster all around and Epic seems to be taking it seriously now.

    There is kinda a misconception of how Lumen and the hybrid RT is handled in UE5 titles. AO is also part of the ray traced pipeline through the HW Lumen too.
    Just shadows are handled separately from the RT system by using VSM which in final look behvae quite like RT shadows in shape, same how FF16 handled the shadows looking like RT ones while it isn't traced.
    UE5 can still trace shadows if they want to push things even further.

    Yes indirect shadows are handled by hardware lumen. But at the end ot doesn¡t change my comment. i think the game will be 600´720p at 30 fps on Series S.

    No this is probably different than most game are doing it here the main focus is the 60 fps mode and after they can create a balancedand 30 fps mode.

    This is not the other way around.

    Yes. I am sure Series S will have HW solution but probably at 30 FPS. that would be a miracle if they achieve 60 FPS.

    Fortnite not using Lumen or Nanite at launch doesn't mean they can't run well on Switch 2. It's a launch port and they prioritized clean IQ and 60fps. I wouldn't be surprised to see them added later. Also it's not like the ray tracing in a Witcher 3 port has to match PS5, there's a lot of scaling back that can be done with ray tracing without ripping out the kitchen sink. Software lumen is also likely to be an option on P.

    No the consoles won't hold back your 5090 because the game is created with hardware lumen, RT reflection, virtual shadows maps and Nanite plus Nanite vegetation in minds. Maybe Nanite character too in final version?

    If the game was made with software lumen as the base it would have holding back your 5090...

    Your PC will have much better IQ, framerate and better raytracing with Megalightand better raytracing settings in general.

    Exactly, the series s is not a "mistake" or holding any version of the game on console or even PC back, that's what I'm saying to the person I replied to, its stupid to say that.

    ? they said that 60 FPS on Series S is challenging, not the act of releasing the game there at all. The game can simply run at 30 FPS on Series S if they can't pull off 60 FPS. Or have a 40 FPS mode in lieu of 60 FPS.

    The CPU and storage speed differences between last gen and current gen were gigantic. This isn't even remotely close to a comparable situation.

    Ah yes, clearly 5090 cards are the vast majority of the minimum requirements for PC games.

    How can anyone say this with a straight face anymore when there are now PC games running on a Steam Deck.

    At least ppl saying that about the Series S are comparing it to other consoles.

    That said, it is interesting they are focusing on consoles first, then PC.

Fortnite not using Lumen or Nanite at launch doesn't mean they can't run well on Switch 2. It's a launch port and they prioritized clean IQ and 60fps. I wouldn't be surprised to see them added later. Also it's not like the ray tracing in a Witcher 3 port has to match PS5, there's a lot of scaling back that can be done with ray tracing without ripping out the kitchen sink. Software lumen is also likely to be an option on P.   jroc74 Member Oct 27, 2017 34,465 Interesting times ahead.... bitcloudrzr said: Has it been confirmed that Sony is going to have release requirements like the XS?

GTA is mainly doing it for design/physics/etc. whch is why the graphics can't be scaled down to 720p/60fps? Click to expand... Click to shrink... Graphics are the part of the game that can be scaled, it is CPU load that is the more difficult part, although devs have actually made cuts in the latter to increase performance mode fps viability. Even with this focus on 60fps performance modes, they are always going to have room to make a higher fidelity 30fps mode. Specifically with UE5 though, performance has been such a disaster all around and Epic seems to be taking it seriously now.   Greywaren Member Jul 16, 2019 13,530 Spain 60 fps target is fantastic, I wish it was the norm.   julia crawford Took the red AND the blue pills Member Oct 27, 2017 40,709 i am very ok with lower fps on the series s, it is far more palatable than severe resolution drops with upscaling artifacts.   Spoit Member Oct 28, 2017 5,599 Chronos said: This better not be a Cyberpunk situation all over again.

Click to expand... Click to shrink... There is kinda a misconception of how Lumen and the hybrid RT is handled in UE5 titles. AO is also part of the ray traced pipeline through the HW Lumen too. Just shadows are handled separately from the RT system by using VSM which in final look behvae quite like RT shadows in shape, same how FF16 handled the shadows looking like RT ones while it isn't traced. UE5 can still trace shadows if they want to push things even further.  overthewaves Member Sep 30, 2020 1,203 What about the PS5 handheld?   nullpotential Member Jun 24, 2024 87 KRT said: Series S was a mistake Click to expand...
