UPD: According to BioWare, they borrowed the technology called “Strand Based Hair” from EA Sports. Which means, it's a custom solution, and it was already integrated into the engine (and utilized for EA Sports Football). I want the next Battlefield with the…
Everyone asked and so they made a blog post about it:

And it's somehow the shittiest text written by the most corporate language possible despite such an amazing topic to truly unwrap.

Userbenchmark, the very questionable hardware comparison tool, known for its hate against AMD Ryzen, is down. Right before that they posted notorious bullshit about Ryzen 9800X3D, something like:

All reviews are fake, the 0.1% are actually horrible, everyone is lying, Intel is the best! 🤡

Finally, GIMP 3 is now at Release Candidate stage — you can actually use it in production!
💡 The most important change is the support of non-destructive modifiers for layers and text. Before all the modifications were instantly baked into the image, which was a huge pain, compared to Photoshop.

Red Dead Redemption just got a must-have 3.4GB lore-friendly HD Texture Pack
According to the modder, this isn’t just a quick AI upscale project. Instead, he edited some textures by hand to sharpen and improve every detail while keeping the game’s original look. The mod also includes new normal maps for each texture, matching the resolution of the main texture.

STALKER 2 moderators are banning people on Steam for mentioning that their PC system requirements are not showing the right numbers and actually suggest that everyone is using upscaling.
It was previously confirmed by the community manager on Discord and now they are trying to erase this statement (but getting the Streisand effect).

I never thought I'd say that, but Apple created a cheap and efficient mini PC, capable of gaming. But there's a catch:
— Cheap $599 model is good, but:
1. Don't get more memory or SSD in the configurator, prices are insane = get Pro if you want more, and
2. Be aware that CPU runs at 110°C or more. They prioritized silence (and IMO, it will backfire)
— A better $1399 M4 Pro version (12 CPU cores, 16 GPU cores) or even more expensive one (14 and 20 cores) are way more reliable and usually run at 80-90°C under heavy load. Why? The cooling system of the pro is literally different and so is SSD form factor! They are louder and for this price you'd better get a real PC.
But among mini PCs there's nothing that fast and that good. Blender runs great, DaVinci Resolve is seamless, etc.
