What is something you dislike but still begrudgingly use? - eviltoast

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.

    Fucking Costco. Pay a membership fee to wait in the following lines to buy shit:

    Parking, cart, entry, items, pay, receipt check, leave parking. You can’t simple stop by for an item, its impossible…

      Where I’m at, a Costco membership pays for itself in 2 months with the savings on gasoline alone. Costco gas is nearly a full dollar cheaper per gallon than any other gas station around.

      Also, try shopping in Costco without a cart. You’ll only be able to carry 2-3 things and it helps stop me from overbuying a bunch of stuff.

      Costco is a religion and I’m all for it.

      Strangely, I literally did the thing you just told me was impossible. I stopped in to buy one of those wine advent calendars.

      Also, I’m not sure why you’d wait in line for a cart for one item.
