Performance-wise apple’s chips are way ahead of amd and any other arm based chip as well. Not sure what you’re talking about.

And compatibility ofc, that’s what I meant good software. Like optimizing steamOS to run on the m chips.

But that would never happen of course.

Apple does have the technology though… imagine a steam deck with the m series chip? An m4 pro could run basically all modern games on a small screen at 60+ fps with the right software…

I feel like Outer Worlds at least tried to have a message. But they got scared and pulled away and gave up before the end. It starts way stronger than Fallout 3 imo. At least when it comes to writing and story. It’s of course not a SERIOUS game, but it tries to say something even if it does give up. In my experience Bethesda games are allergic to having a message or point.

That’s literally one of the first missions 😭

I personally loved it. I finished it quicker than most games I’ve played the last few years. I was actually surprised. It’s not a long game by any means, but still.

I didn’t love that it started a bit more radical and became more lib over time, but I still enjoyed the writing and gameplay quite a bit. It’s silly fun, and it’s not pretending not to be. It does have a message, but it’s not overtly drab or serious.

Yeah? The executives are firing people, to lower costs, make the numbers look better…? Which makes the owners of the business money?

Why wouldn’t the executives get bonuses or golden parachutes if let go? They are doing exactly what they are supposed to do.

Executives don’t make products, provide services, or add any productive value. They are just the face of the owners, and will do the “hard” things for them.

Like lie, commit crimes, do mass-layoffs etc etc.

Depends on the school of Buddhism sure. That’s true. Some don’t have anything resembling what we call God or even gods tho.

I know, but still, the oldest schools of Buddhism don’t have anything that would equate to what we in the west consider a god, or gods.

I know that in east asia, south-east Asia etc., there are schools of Buddhism that do have gods.

But Buddhism being in many ways a rejection of brahamical religion in north india/nepal, also rejected the idea of gods when it first started to develop. I think that’s pretty uncontroversial no?

Not non-religious, but Buddhists don’t believe in god 🤷‍♂️ it’s something

Yeah… you’re gonna have to do better than that. That article is almost entirely based on the Black Book of Communism, a known bullshit book filled with ridiculous numbers and “estimates”.

Like it includes Nazis killed in WW2 as “victims of communism”. And if those are the victims, good riddance in my books…

Source? Never heard of this. They genocided ethnic minorities and instituted privatization, eroding worker rights?

Market value and value are different things. Value is how much a product is socially necessary, and how hard it is to produce. Market value then is what people end up paying for it in a free market. They are often different, but in aggregate for the whole end up being the same.

Capitalism really

Well… the “Pixar-like characters with stiff expressions” seems to be a stylistic decision, not a technical blunder.

Not photorealistic, realistic. So normal proportions, faces, textures etc.

Like I’d argue Golden Eye is a game with a realistic art style. It is as realistic as the technology allowed at the time. But it clearly tries to emulate the real world, and not a fantastical cartoony world or a woodcarved illustration, or anime etc etc.

The comment from the ME guy is probably in response to Dragon Age Veilguard being much more cartoony than Inquisition. Characters have huge heads, textures are flat and stylised etc.

I think he means as a style, they aim for a “realistic” style. Not that they will sacrifice anything for “graphical fidelity” or smth

Let me help you out:

There are NO sound arguments for racism, fascism etc.

None.

There is no point in listening to racists and fascists.

Ever.

Kinda terrible examples tho…

Sure “Hitler lost”. Cause he killed himself and stuff. But the Nazis won. The US saved most officers and gave them jobs in NATO and the nascent west German government. Then used them to hunt and undermine communists all over the world. The Nazis themselves kinda won. The Cold War was basically a Nazi war, which they won.

The south “lost”. But after they lost the US became the most racially segregated country in the world and became the chief inspiration to the Nazis.

Then the US literally bombed Japan TWICE for no fucking reason other than spooking Stalin.

You have 3 wrong examples, that actually show we are living in the timeline where the Empire won.

I cant read twitter threads I have no account.

But come on, they were a bit shit on Corbyn when the AS bs first started but they’ve been defending him fiercely ever since, up to this day.

And then being friends with Zionists idk, that would be surprising.

And also, George Galloway can f off…. There’s PLENTY to criticise about him.

Now imagine you have 0 knowledge or understanding of anything.

You don’t understand there is a thing called vision. You don’t know about dimensions. You don’t understand that objects exist. That things have shapes, colors perhaps. That there are materials.

You don’t even have eyes per se, or any other sensor. You can’t see.

You don’t understand what thoughts are. What concepts are, nevertheless any concepts themselves.

If I showed you a side-plane picture of a car, directly plugged into your brain, do you think you’d recognize “cars” if we suddenly also gave you eyes and legs and told you walk around downtown?

From the moment you are born you are “trained”. From the moment the first strains of organic molecules closed themselves off from their environment, they’ve been “trained”.
