It’s a very very old engine though. As funny as it is to put a pot on someone’s head I really hope the AI have a bit more brains in this one. It would also be nice if they could stall the interior of buildings inside the exterior so I don’t have to look at a loading screen whenever I open a door.

It’d be really weird if it was.

Yeah they call that artificial data and tout it as a good thing

It just shows that these tech bro CEOs possess the interpersonal skills of a potato. This exact same dynamic plays out in every human interaction, this isn’t some AI exclusive thing. How you choose to act dictates how people will respond to you.

However because these idiots have barely anything in common with the rest of the human race this is actually new news to them.

I think it’s only France where it’s explicitly banned. Mostly because otherwise CCTV cameras are legally complicated.

No, there was like four people that I actually liked the rest of them can get in the sea.

Actually they’re probably all right now but they’re not a tits when they were kids, but I have no desire to find out.

Living as someone who’s in a WhatsApp country, they absolutely won’t respond to texts. Nobody texts anybody, even old people don’t use SMS.

If I get an SMS I won’t even see it because I have notifications disabled because all I ever got was spam.

They’re also typically the laziest people in the world. The hate to expend any amount of effort and they don’t get much from commissions if it’s a rental.

When I was buying my house it took the sellers 5 months to sort out the paperwork. It took them any half a year to process the purchase of a single house.

I still maintain that the people most likely to want Trump dead are the elite not the general populace. Sure he has terrible approval ratings but most people don’t know how to hire an assassin. Corporations do.

Think how much money he has cost businesses, all the sanctions, the unnecessary wars, the pointless sabre rattling that has lost them contracts in Europe. The only people who are benefiting from Trump are those in scaffolding supplies who keep having to put up scaffolding all over Washington as he keeps slapping his name on everything

We used to do that too. But wowbetired anyone that puts jager in mine. I’ve had some paint stripper in my time and being fine, but a milligram of jager and I’m throwing up. God knows what’s in it.

The vantablack thing is a bit complicated because while it’s utterly ridiculous he’s the only artist allowed to use the substance (and is an utter prick about it, which is honestly the larger issue).

It has to be a somewhat controlled substance because it’s ridiculously carcinogenic, obviously that doesn’t mean you can’t sell it to other people it just has to be dolled out carefully and with instruction.

The pink is amazing though, I saw some in a museum once and it honestly looks like it’s lit up, cameras absolutely do not capture it. It just looks normal on cameras. It’s worth going and having a look if you ever have the opportunity.

Personally I think the whole concept of gamers is stupid. You cannot have a demographic comprise predominantly of multiple different sections of a population, that’s two broader of net to be casting. It’s like saying that everyone who drives a car is a car enthusiast.

Anyone who plays games is a gamer but there’s a huge range of ages, ethnicities, and nationalities. Besides someone who plays a lot of FPS is not the same as someone who predominantly plays grand strategy games or the Sims.

Whether or not you want to make the moral distinction is a personal choice, but there is an economic distinction to be made as well.

Pirating a AAA game is fine because the studio is gonna make more games regardless.

Pirating an indie game is stupid though, if too many people do that then the developer won’t be able to make enough money and won’t make more games.

Doubling down on the idiocy I see. You could have avoided see me like a prick for the second time if you would just read the the whole article rather than cherry picking a bit of it that reinforces whatever random point it is you’re trying to make.

he’s not actually unhappy about the number of refunds or money he lost, or even Steam’s policy in general—he was merely expressing frustration with players who “bragged about having a fun time with the game and refunding it after completion.”

Which I think is fair enough.

That’s the thing they always tell you. It isn’t a mobile platform, people are prepared to pay higher prices but you need to set expectations with those prices.

If you’re charging $15 for a game people are going to expect at least 10ish hours of gameplay, if it’s going to be under that you want to be sub $10.

Although having said that I think I only paid £12 for Minecraft (about $15) and I’m probably thousands and thousands of hours into that.

It’s not “gamers”, it’s just people, some of which are nobs who one shouldn’t listen too

Yeah they sent me an email to basically say no. The randomised list has apparently put me too far down so now I’m not going to get one.

No time frame or anything just no.

Well yeah if everyone’s using wall hacks in which case who cares?

The reason that IT often gets lumped with this stuff is because if you leave it to anybody else they do it wrong especially logistics.

Everyone except the IT department is now banned from ordering new IT equipment because they’ll order a bunch of laptops and then act all surprised when this huge pallet of devices arrives as if they didn’t just order one. So then it just sits in the entrance lobby the days on end until someone from IT comes and opens the pallet and takes the laptops upstairs. If they do that with new pens that’s fine, no one’s going to steal them.

It’ll be worse than smart watches that tell you that you’ve been sat down for too long.

Yeah I’ve been sat down for too long, I’m at work you idiot device.
