You said it's impossible to come back to life. Some people are pronounced dead by medical professionals and then are resuscitated and brought back to life.
OK, so, what's your point?
They tend to be the people who talk about their experiences of the afterlife.
It's impossible until the day of Judgment, maybe they were dreaming.... God knows.

As we die, our brains releases a huge amount of electricity and endorphins; I believe any "experience" someone might feel as they die (or have a near death experience, and live to tell the tale) is simply the brain's "last stand", as it were, giving people illusions of a grandeur paradise (or suffering, whatever) that have been associated with any "heaven/hell" religious communities might believe in.

I'd like to think my soul goes somewhere

I can't and don't want to comprehend a complete and utter end to my existence.

That right there is the root of all afterlife belief and the basic power all organised religion hold over their followers.

Human egos are frail, and have a tough time accepting their finite nature "I'm such a wonderful valuable creature, there must be some further existence for me after this one..."

The truth? You are a complex chemical reaction, the ultimate product of which is dust and bones.

Is there life after death for chimpanzees? Pigs? Ants? Will I be reunited with my first NES when I die? I don't believe in it.

Death to me is not scary, I hope it's far away... but if my consciousness is gone awaiting judgmentday and then rebooted to play harp on a cloud then it might as well just stay gone because I will not be missing people and things by that time anyway.

My point is that you're saying that it is impossible to die and come back to life, anyone with any medical knowledge will tell you otherwise.

Some people believe that they are visited by the ghosts of their beloved animals, so I'd imagine so.

Damn, I can't even think of a lighthearted comment to raise the spirits that were obliterated by this reply.

Depends on what you believe in. I'll probably get stuck in a endless cycle of reincarnation or my soul stays on Earth as long as it pleases til I decide to move on.

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
