I legit don’t understand the point of the blue checkmark if the one thing it gave confidence in (this person is this person) is no longer true and the cachet of having one is seriously diluted.

He wrote a song about the sort of people who would believe there’s any connection there. It’s called Foil, I believe.

not that I’m a fan of the big kidneys, but it’s much uglier without, imho

Part of it is just that game developers have learned over time as they’ve refined their practices in making live games to build in LiveOps features into games that let them disable characters/features/equipment etc from server-side when issues arise.

Probably a poor choice of words. “(Attempt to) make fictional violence entertaining*” is probably more in line with what they meant.

“Say hello to my Leto friend!”

yes, the article states they are not unattractive, or bad to drive

dude, welcome to comics. it’s “nanoboytes” according to my 2 seconds due diligence, which I find is a useful thing to do before you try and correct somebody

the equivilent “number” cards have been getting more expensive, but it’s a little misleading without adjusting for inflation. the 780 is $877 in today dollars

while it certainly can and will be used to “replace human labor”, this is a desirable quality in some aspects of game development to generate temporary/placeholder/mood assets that gets thrown away during development after prototypes are proven or while programming is waiting on more final assets. the artists don’t…
