You said it yourself, their economy is held up by toothpicks, and we are being those toothpicks... You strengthen the support of their economy as you participate in their product reach. It was one thing for them to be a powerhouse of general goods production that the world ended up relying on, but now we are also…

It’s not about refusing it at all cost. You’re trying to reduce it down to an all or nothing argument, when it’s not. It’s about doing your part where it’s at least reasonable. It is not at all troublesome to just not play a specific video game. It’s not the same as giving up your career or starving for the sake of…

In what way is standing up against a totalitarian government “cancel culture”? This isn’t some Twitter spat of some celeb making an oopsie.

This was already known since launch but few media outlets picked it up. You also missed the part where two popular Hololive VTuber’s names were censored in the game as well just because they had the audacity to mention Taiwan as a country when discussing their Youtube viewership stats. They were even suspended by…

To cook it nicely? No. Tons of stuff are much easier to cook (assuming we’re not even counting simple microwaveable foods). You don’t need any cooking knowledge to cook a nice egg. You can clearly see how cooked the yolk is and take it out when it’s cooked the amount you like. Steak? Naw, there’s a lot involved, from…

The Avengers robot just looks like it had some quick human mocap thrown on it, the movements are very squishy and human like. Benedict has nice rigid, powerful robotic technique, but still with lots of clear micro-movements involved that clearly took effort to animate.

I’m not sure why Sony feels so strongly about keeping users on its consoles anyways. Selling the consoles isn’t where they make their money, it’s the games, which it shouldn’t matter where they sell those.
They could easily push for a Playstation PC store that is required to play their exclusives on PC and PS+ for…

I wouldn’t say they’re weaponizing their fanbase anymore than Apple does inherently. By nature of the iOS/Android duopoly, Apple gets to wield its market share as its primary weapon, so I think Epic should have every right to use their playerbase to strengthen their fight.

I’m not a fan of Epic and the…

The rendering tech behind it is really quite amazing. Nearly everything you see is rendered using shapes generated from mathematical formulas (based on signed distance fields) which then affect eachother’s shapes to create more complex shapes, instead of the traditional way of using polygon meshes. It allows for some…

A bunch of other people absolutely. She might have had a bit of directing influence/input on it of course, but you only make this level of quality in Dreams if you’re already an amazing graphics artist, which is not her area of expertise.

Helllll yeah, I played the hell out of FFR. Was a great time waster in class when there was no work to do.

I wonder how much deditated wam she has in her PC.

That’s very shortsighted and wishy-washy. Those automakers would be buying the credits whether Tesla existed or not. At least with them going to Tesla it’s helping fund the transition to electric cars. It gives Tesla more and more power to actually enact change... You just immediately see a negative and react instead…

Well he already does promote G-Fuel :kappa:

Also literally just today, a bunch of Nintendo SDK and beta content was leaked out from hackers who took it directly from Nintendo’s servers...

Yeah! Screw artists, who do they think they are hoping to earn some money from their hard work! This game is stupid now.

Because men and many women*. People always make this statement, forgetting that a large portion of women also find sexy female characters more interesting and have fun with the jiggle.

What exactly does getting a bill passed have to do with how progressive you are? That’s a reflection of the congressional members as a whole, not Bernie himself. Bernie has never been president, he can’t executive order shit, other democrats had to vote yes on bills with him to pass. His actual voting record shows…

I’m surprised it took this long. I’d had some interactions with this person back when I was in the Nintendo modding scene about 4 years ago. He was always flaunting his theft of Nintendo data, literally showing off on Twitter the private keys he stole from Nintendo by being able to order a dev kit from them and also…

Everyone was so preoccupied wondering if you could taste things with your balls, they never stopped to think if you could taste with your feet!
