To be fair, there's a lot of "art" in video games that no other industry would recognize as such. Brick textures. That kind of thing. I'm perfectly okay with using AI for these necessary but unimportant tasks. Same with using stock assets. These assets just have to be good enough for nobody to notice they're there.

Desktop OSes are not suited to running untrusted code, unfortunately, so you want to run as much as possible of your closed source megaco software in the browser

In a world where electronics were really expensive and did not go out of date so quickly, maybe people actually would have tools and spare parts lying around for the power electronics. But a) that's not the world we live in, and b) usually the software is not user serviceable, at least with reasonable effort, and the microelectronics never is

Nicht unbedingt falsch: Wenn unproduktive leuten Wohnungen in der nähe von Arbeitsplätzen vom Markt hält, schädet dass der Produktivität. Ob dass so wichtig ist, dass wir Leuten rauswerfen sollte, ist einer andere Frage.

And tbf they’d be correct. Best you can hope for is a laugh.

Damn. Thought they launched something new.

There's a good joke I heard from a friend about Communism:

What kind of communism do you support? The kind that's purely theoretical, or the kind that always fail?

If you're on Windows it's hard to recommend anything else. Nvidia has DLSS supported in basically every game. For recent games there's the new transformer DLSS. Add to that ray reconstruction, superior ray tracing, and a steady stream of new features. That's the state of the art, and if you want it you gotta pay Nvidia. AMD is about 4 years behind Nvidia in terms of features. Intel is not much better. The people who really care about advancements in graphics and derive joy from that are all going to buy Nvidia because there's no competition.

Do these people not ever talk to anyone in real life? How do you arrive at thinking all real humans are Marxists/Leninists?

So eine art Sozialismus, aber National. Deutschland zuerst, aber mit Sozialleistungen für echte Deutsche... Ah, uhm, es riecht ein bisschen... Kacke.

Die Alternativen zu Atomkraft sind nicht wind un PV, sondern Gas und Kohle.

Pretty much. Maybe someone at the 8bitdo HQ got an SD and discovered that the controllers all worked great?

Once everything has been optimized and runs smoothly, there are no surprises anymore, nothing interesting, you just do a routine that you've specialized in and have gotten bored at 10 years ago. Our quality of life is unparalleled. Our quality of work less so. It's safe and all, but so so boring

Rejected from art school, you say?

Here's a pair of scissors so you can crop your memes: ✂️

Isn't this a bit much? Smoking is bad, but smokers gotta do it somewhere. Outside seems good to me.

Corrupt government does what corrupt governments do? Shocking.

Don't you pay income tax in the country where you are resident, regardless of where you work? I don't understand this. Sounds like a badly thought out deal.

I'm on team dentist here as well. Those things don't geow back unless you're 3. Get an electric toothbrush. They're not that expensive, and don't make brushing take any more time than otherwise.

I think the kind of plastic used in bottles is one of very few that actually are profitable to recycle. PET, I think. This is actually something recycling companies want. Most other plastic is just burned or shipped somewhere.
