To be fair Amazon Games was mostly an effort to plug AWS for gaming services before they realized they didn’t really need to pump in their own money to get it going with some games to prove the concepts.

Yeah the way Nvidia is doing it is way better even if it is having some issues with publishers. Nvidia can also afford to play hardball as they can do a workaround on licensing they just don’t want to as it would make it a less optimal user experience and increase the cost.

Hey, just remember it could be worse, it could be 1920 where they were still recovering from the war in the middle of the Spanish Flu, or even 1918 where they had the war and the flu. Or 1940 where the world looked on track to destroy itself.

To be honest it’s a bit of a personal preference thing when it comes down to it. For games that use both analogue sticks and triggers as the main input it is a better design in a lot of ways. Some of the issue is that not all games are designed for that control scheme 100% and the need for Sony to balance different…

Carbon neutral distilleries shouldn’t be lauded, by their nature many of them will be very close to carbon neutral anyway as they have one of the most sustainable production chains possible in an industry. The big thing is energy for heating and we’ve had lots of carbon free solutions for that and many distilleries…

I think this is in some ways the right way to present this kind of information. There are so many people that behave in ways described on the site without any understanding of their actions or the impact that those actions can have.

It’s possible to be all those things simultaneously and most people are. There are also ranges of behaviour that aren’t really helpful to compare, even you have compared three individuals that have a range of things from having unpopular ideas that aren’t really wrong to have as an individual even if they aren’t…

To be honest it was really flawed in execution that was way more a vanity project than real science. They built what should have been the scale of biosphere version 10 instead of version 2 as there was a lot of fundamental work to go in before they got to the scale they were working at.

A mini-series format would have worked better, is is basically like being back in the day when movies had intermissions and that gives you a lot more freedom to tell a story as you have a natural breakpoint where you can let the audience go be humans and come back.

I think in the current times it is ripe for a current article looking at where the science of these close ecologies is. I the 90s this was a bit of a failure as an experiment, but things have moved a long way with a lot of people doing work to enable people to live longer in extraterrestrial environments so I think it…

I’ve not had a game not support it even older ones that I can recall in the last few years. On the odd game that supported it, but not well it is easy enough to just run at a different aspect ratio as not everything has to be  ultrawide.

To be fair that’s the British argument for America as a whole. Dump all the weirdos and extremists, wait a few hundred years and see if either sanity prevails or come riding to the rescue with the rest of the Commonwealth.

To be fair it isn't a puzzle, you get a hefty manual. If it was a puzzle it would be very un fun, it is on the edge of enjoyable if you don't treat it as a long term project. You do get a nice model at the end as well, unlike most puzzles.

There is a fair point to that in terms of the reasons up to now, but those don’t really wash as much when you are looking at a major upgrade. If you look at the UK experience in part the reason why they ditched the V-bombers despite each one on retirement still being capable of winning at Red Flag every year was…

That is different in that there is a clear indication of harm, not telling someone about family or relationship status in any relationship is in no way an issue of consent.

The root cause is the same and technically as a term it is more racism has been pulled to a narrower definition rather than vice versa, by the English definition it essentially just means against any distinct group so it does apply widely.

I was meaning more it wasn’t a factor for me, and hey everyone likes joshing with the Canucks.

I’m pretty sure I count that as Racism, although have to say as you can guess from my username I think it may have something to do with the rampant racism and discrimination of Scots, Welsh and Irish minorities. I’m not even that old and have a laundry list of examples of discrimination based on my nationality. It’s…

I would have to disagree I’ve always been taught and believe that racism is defined as:

To be fair I don’t think it says anything about a person that they like cards against humanity and dark humour. The main group of people that I play the game with are a total mix of people of all sorts of ages and backgrounds from athiests and fundamental christians and socialists to conservatives. About the only…
