Depends on where you live too. I can see the northern lights where I’m at pretty regularly anyway but last night they went all kinds of crazy.

Lmfao oh my lord… It absolutely is.

No but if you “just want to make cool and fun games” you wouldn’t fund Gears 5 or Halo Infinite now would you?

I don’t think that :/ I think his statements and the games he chooses to back sort of prove that ultimately profit is what he is interested in. I don’t blame him for that. But don’t make him out to be what he isn’t. He is a CEO first, being a fan of games falls lower on the list.

Yeah and there are tons of angles and gestures for human subjects that AI just can’t figure out still. Any time I’ve seen a “stunning” AI render it’s some giant FOV painting with no real subject or the subject takes up a 12th of the canvas.

I haven’t played Timberborn but I almost did pick it up on the spring sale, decided to get dotAGE instead to see what all the fuss was about and damn I love it. It’s a lot more of a worker placement game and is a roguelike so if that doesn’t interest you it might not be for you but damn it’s good so far.

If it helps try thinking of it as a “boomer shooter” because of the proliferation of rockets and rocket physics in classic games like Unreal and Quake

All of the Virtute The Cat songs by The Weakerthans, but Virtute The Cat Explains Her Departure in particular will make me tear up any time I hear it.

This is now the 4th time they’re trying? Give it up already…

I definitely would love to see a rework of the network stack at large but idk how you’d do it without an insane amount of cooperation among tech giants which seems sort of impossible

They “supported” a bill that they immediately circumvented, yeah. They had no interest in protecting right to repair they just wanted the PR. It should surprise no one that they’re opposed to actual bills that force them to alter their business practices.

These companies tend to own or have long term leases, so either they are stuck paying rent and have to justify the expense or they own an asset that is depreciating in value and they could stop that from happening by spending no money to force their employees back into the office. You have to think about the big money, too. Real estate is a cornerstone asset for big money, many banks and real estate empires hold these enormous office buildings and society trending towards WFH means those buildings are rapidly losing their value.

Nope It’s not racist to dislike a nations actions or to criticize them.

Just had a Sneepo Bar from Egypt the other day and it is basically a snickers bar except like really, extremely fucking good (it’s like actual nougat in there boys) and now all I want is more Sneepo.

I’m having lobster tail, mushie peas and unclel Ben’s rice. It’s not the most elaborate meal but it’s comforting and delicious.

In the US most do not own a kettle

Ah, there’s the rub. Thanks I was having a hard time figuring this one out.

Hard disagree. Is it intentionally provocative to make their statement in that way? 100 percent. But that isn’t anti semitism, anti semitism isn’t saying things that may upset Jewish people. It is the belief that Jewish people are less than people.

I have bad news for you because it seems obvious you have never done basic construction: You’re not replacing builders with computers any time soon.

Nobody is saying that but reading a headline that says “Construction company prints some walls!” and then saying “welp that’s it they’re out here just 3D printing whole ass buildings” is pretty uh… Dumb.
