Today on the 5: The newest release of DLSS has generated a lot of discussion, and with very good reason. DLSS5 crosses an important line by opening the door to changing the nature of graphics in video games that could easily have a significant impact on how players react to them. This is exactly the thing that many people have been concerned would happen, and they're clearly not happy about it.

Today on the 5: I saw an article over on Ars Technica about a bit of a dustup over AI powered OCR usage on a Patreon where the supporters didn't seem to know that's what their money would be used for. I found it to be a really fasincating case where I can see both sides of the arguments.

Today on the 5: After watching the Resident Evil live action films utterly fumble adapting the source material to live action, you might think I was better prepared for what was coming in the 2019 reboot of Hellboy. In almost impressive ways, this movie found new avenues infuriate me!

Today on the 5: For some reason I thought of the "tone poem" teaser trailers released in advance of the release of The Phantom Menace. Out of curiousity I decided to watch them and see if they still retained their quality. Not only do they hold up, they also still have a powerful nostalgic effect on me.

Today on the 5: As part of our "Milla March" marathon, Lando and I are watching all of the Resident Evil films starring Milla Jovovich. Out of the entire run, the movie I'm most conflicted about it is Resident Evil: Apocalypse. It's definitely not a good movie, but I can see moments in it that make me feel like it could have been a lot better.
