Maybe the term you’re looking for isn’t censorship, it’s chilling effect.

REAL TAKE: I like this.

I’m just a tiny bit conflicted here. (Before anybody responds angrily without reading the rest of my comment: don’t get me wrong, I’m not conflicted about the result: he fucked up majorly, he was punished, that’s it, end of story.)

Mip-mapping solves the issue of resized textures looking pixelated. Ie it’s the difference in resizing an image in Photoshop between “nearest neighbor” and “bicubic” or some such. It’s a process-intensive calculation, so mip-maps are created ahead of time to save on computational power.

One could say mipmapping is basically the LODing but specifically for textures, but there are additional factors that mipmapping solves that mesh LODing doesn’t. Visually, a complex 3D model looks fine near or far, but the same does not apply to textures, especially for textures that are at an angle with respect to…

You can’t just “drop from orbit”. You have to burn to deorbit, and then you’re going to have a hell of a time guiding projectile coming in at a very shallow angle, rapidly ablating away to nothing, and sheathed in its own radio-opaque ball of plasma.

I’ve tried this game so many times and for some reason it always ends the same way.

You know it’s fake right?

Challenge should be productive and not “terminal.” I get that. The system should be accommodating enough that it gives me the space to find a solution.

Note to self: don’t bother playing this guy’s games.

“DO YOU SEE IT?”

It’s one of Munroe’s biggest mistakes, in my opinion. I’ve only ever seen it used correctly maybe...10 times? Every other time it’s misguided self-congratualation, for its own sake.

Voltaire dies again every time this comic is shared.

As someone who has posted that image before, I don’t think it really applies here. In fact, I’m starting to worry that people are using it to justify the shutting down of any conversation.

It is possible, but it does not seem probable.

“Speed Racer” is a goddamned masterpiece and I will fight anyone who says otherwise.

it’s very hard for a movie adaptation of something to actually capture what made the source material special.

you fixed nothing.

It’s design just showed up in an episode of SW:Rebels

We already have an answer to that in the flashback that immediately followed Bernard initially asking that question. He saw himself killing Elsie Hughes.
