I think it’s important to note that it’s impossible to “beat” lag. The only thing you can do is hide lag in different places. There are a bunch of solutions that all have different trade-offs.

This solution is in roughly the same space as one I wrote about a long time ago. https://www.forrestthewoods.com/blog/tech_of_planetary_annih...



Agreed - you can't beat it.

I guess some day we can have quantum entangled FPS games so it's all instant and there is no lag? I only sorta half joke.
