This question was inspired by my hatred of Temporal Anti-Aliasing which, in many games nowadays, is poorly used as a performance bandaid. On lower resolutions it will smudge and blur the image and certain bad cases of TAA will cause visible ghosting.

Yet in spite of all this, certain games won’t let you turn it off or have hair/fur/foliage look like dogshit without it so sometimes I still use it.

      Some people hate it just because they want to feel superior. They want FOSS but there is no FOSS that comes close to excel.

      I’m also a data analyst, so I sense sarcasm, but in case you’re not:

      A big beef is excel can’t handle decimals larger than 6 places iirc. So if you copy/paste, it will delete your data accuracy. Is that not fucking insane? I mean think about that for a second… The most popular data table in the world will delete your data.

      There’s a whole laundry list of other things I can complain about, but the bottom line is they bought it from another company, then stopped working on it. It’s Microsoft’s entire business model: Buy it, charge for it, ignore it.
