Not that these are wrong, but I wonder about recency bias. Have these indicators been trending downward for 20 years, or is this just a response to our current crop of morons?
If Obama v2 was elected tomorrow, would these instantly reverse, like the international opinion seemed to when he took over from W?
Because they took their husband’s family name, which probably doesn’t match their birth certificate.
I don’t think the convergence to x86/ARM is really lack of innovation, it’s more recognizing that being on a separate architecture doesn’t really help you. The innovation is now in form factor (e.g. the Switch), peripherals (e.g. VR or alt controllers) or software (e.g. streaming). Now, having an x86 just means your base platform is cheap and you don’t need a lot of custom work, although these platforms still get integration attention. Also makes ports much simpler.
The PS3 is actually a great example of the industry learning this lesson. The Cell architecture was really hard to leverage. It took years for any games/engines to use the Cell SPUs right.
As for Linux though, PS3 Linux was effectively just PowerPC Linux which was already fully supported years before in every major server distro. The Cell PPUs (main, boot cores) were pretty much off the shelf PowerPC. Similar to the Wii/WiiU.
Source: work in semiconductors, the Cell was one of my first platforms out of school.
I’ve always thought about that. There must be some quirk of how subspace comms work that makes it obvious when someone is aiming a message at you.
The real thing that gets me is how do view screens work? That would seem to require a shared format to encode/decode.
Absolutely. I’ve spent the last 20 years road tripping in TX and Bucees made it so much nicer that even the non-Bucees stops have had to up their game or people will straight up hold it for the next 100 miles.
If I have my family in the car, I have a mutiny on my hands if I refuse to pull over.
Have some links for the manipulation? I don’t think the Republicans really want to see either of them, frankly but I like Crockett.
That’s hilarious. I will admit, as a rank amateur writer, that reading or watching some absolute crap is more motivating than something complex and good.
Thinking “shit, man, I could do better than that” is a powerful force.
I liked Lower Decks contribution to this debate. Maybe with one merge it’s debatable, but beyond that the answer becomes clearer.
As for the Voyager game, it’s not elaborated on. Tuvix is a pretty good hero, has both the Talaxian and Vulcan traits, comes in real handy on some away missions, but it may be better to have separate Tuvok and Neelix to hold down two stations instead of one. Still debatable, but the way the game works the story doesn’t really adapt to it.
Very common here in the US as an alternative to “bless you”.
There is no way Kamala Harris survives a primary.
Sorry, that would mean the rich would get richer slightly slower. Best we can do is make insurance twice as expensive to appease our donors.
From the date I was thinking Vietnam, but with the ruined city on the horizon maybe it’s about mutually assured destruction / nuclear war.
Yeah, big difference between “Starfield 2” and “Starfield 2.0”, one is a sequel, the other is a version.
Cronenberg’s Law: For every Garnet there’s a Brundlefly level freak of nature.
It’s always great to see someone scratch their own itch, so kudos. However, I’m curious what the actual pain point is? Does your mouse not sample fast enough? Noticeable input lag on a gamepad? Seems like this would be a bug with the implementation if it needs to be overclocked to fix…
Absolutely no argument from me on that, but there is no getting away with it - once we start shooting back we’ve opened Pandora’s box. The government is dying for an excuse to get even worse.
People just want to make snarky comments about the second amendment because we’re not shooting ICE agents in the face. They don’t want to hear about the things our communities are actually doing.
My own community hasn’t been hit as hard as MN but we’ve got rapid response hotlines tracking ICE, getting people with cameras and signs on them at the blink of an eye, and resource support groups for the undocumented.
Apparently that counts as nothing to a bunch of people that probably haven’t lifted a finger against their own government despite the fact that fascism is almost certainly rising there too.
That story made no sense. That guy is a glorified forklift, why would you simulate a body/that much intelligence when the computer could just do its job without being capable of resentment?
I’m the kind of person that doesn’t even hear lyrics in music, game voice logs might as well be white noise to me. On the other hand, when the scene tells a story without words and you have to connect the dots yourself, I find that satisfying. Even basic examples like a corpse reaching toward the glowing red button.
