It’s mostly marketing. Films are perfect at 24fps and gamer bros think they can see framerates ten times that.

I’ve never seen any difference with the top two with that test. My monitor is 144hz and TBH I might as well have saved my money and got 60Hz ones.

We’re not all hardcore gamers trained to see miniscule differences.

There’s a lag between human activity and climate change. Rolling out nuclear might have helped a bit, but whether we’d have seen the results today I’m not sure… the benefits would be in the future.

I doubt cars could have evolved any faster though (well they could, but capitalism, so realistically things went as fast as they could)… so it might not have had much impact at all.

Then they won’t let anyone view the site when they follow that advice…
