why would we care about ray tracing on a mobile phone?

I have a pixel for the lack of bloatware, unlockable bootloader and instant/longer update path. Why would I want RT on my phone?!

I thought you got it for Cyberpunk 2077?

Frankly I miss the old pre-RT days when you could play a game and get decent AA out of it without compromising somehow

So yeah, don't care that it's not on a phone where external solutions are harder

You told us: Most of you don't care that the Pixel 8 lacks salt and pepper shakers

[–] ijeff@lemdro.id 1 points 1 year ago

Speak for yourself! I want freshly ground salt and pepper on-the-go.
