Yeah, that’s something I really like about Lemmy. You can have actual conversations. On Reddit, on even an unpopular thread, any comment would be flooded by replies from other people. You couldn’t just talk with one person.
I don’t mind other people joining in, but reddit makes it impossible to do 1-on-1.
And we got Armored Core soon after ER. FromSoft still puts out games reasonably often, while still being high quality. Some people may not like every game, but I don’t think anyone can say they’re putting out garbage like some other studios.
Sure. I think you’re missing the point that it was once sold as something the government can’t manipulate or trace. It is more traceable than practically any other currency (besides maybe your credit card) and governments are getting involved. Nothing else was sold on the idea bitcoin was sold on.
I just meant a company trusted a bogus phising claim and took down a legitimate site. Yeah, they’re a little different though.
Didn’t this exact thing just happen to itch.io?
I’d be less annoyed with it if it were bad. It’s just the most boring thing. There’s nothing interesting going on. If it were bad there’d be a reason to care about it.
It’s just really annoying because Bethesda used to care about doing something interesting with their games. It’s just increasingly gotten more generic though, and Starfield is the worst of it.
That probably ideal, but it should still be spread out so the “less important” projects still get something.
Donations add up. If everyone did what you’re proposing, many projects would likely get no donations. Ideally everyone would donate a small amount to every project they use, which would all add together to be a sizable amount for all projects that are frequently used.
We aren’t all one person. We don’t need to all act as if we’re one. We should act as if we’re a community, because we are. Support all projects, and they’ll all get support.
Here’s the issue: who’s home is it? Is it the home of people who haven’t lived there for hundreds of years or the home of the people who currently do? Neither of these two groups had anything to do with what happened previously.
Jews had lived in the area for a very long time even after most were expelled. This was relatively peaceful (though not perfect). The current issues started when settlers came, who were not from there, and purchased farms. They later decided they would only hire Jewish workers, despite Muslims traditionally tending it (which hurt production because the Jewish settlers had no idea how to do so, but production wasn’t the goal). Muslims then fought back as their livelihood was being taken from them. The settlers used militias to attack back and used it as justification to take more.
Those militias became the IDF when Israel formed. Israel still uses this tactic of provoking an attack and then using that as an excuse to use more force to take more territory. This has happened many times now and the current fight is just the latest, but not a new event.
There are no “good guys” but there are victims. Anyone just trying to live their lives is a victim. The bad guys are the ones trying to take this away from others.
That’s true. I guess we have to wait for this to go through court. I would assume if they put Blade Runner in the prompt it could violate the copyright.
If they asked if he can use imagery similar to or from BR2049 then they’re clearly in the wrong, which it sounds like they did. If they just made an ad and it happened to look like it, maybe not.
I don’t get confused by any of this. Stop pretending like everyone else is stupid. If you’re looking at the hands of a clock, they aren’t moving right when they’re moving clockwise half of the time. The applies to everything moving around a circle. Left and right are only useful if you’re looking at a specific segment of it. Clockwise is what we use for rotations everywhere else. For example, look at this wiki page that says this: “Rotation or rotational motion is the circular movement of an object around a central line, known as an axis of rotation. A plane figure can rotate in either a clockwise or counterclockwise sense around a perpendicular axis intersecting anywhere inside or outside the figure at a center of rotation.” Right is literally never even used in that page, and left is only used once. The terms don’t make sense for rotations. We can make up rules for how they can be considered for rotations, but they fundamentally are not words used to describe rotations. Do you get confused when people say there are more useful words to describe a function?
If I start at the beginning of the arrow and follow it, it’s moving left.
I think we can all understand how it functions but that doesn’t make it “correct.” It’s spinning around a circle. Exactly half of its moving right as the other half moves left. That’s why we have the terms clockwise and counter-clockwise. If left and right were actually reasonable for something spinning in a circle this wouldn’t exist.
Yeah, but once you get one quarter of a rotation through your dot is now moving left.
This has always annoyed me too. I know why it works, but it’s clockwise and counter-(or anti-)clockwise. If you were turning from the bottom, left and right are mixed up. Maybe it’s just too hard to come up with a phrase using those terms?
I’d recommend Morrowind over Skyrim and FONV. It gives you total freedom.
As opposed to FONV, where you can kill most people, unlike what you said, you can kill anyone in Morrowind. FONV always has the fallback of Yes Man. Morrowind you can nearly lock yourself out of progress in the main quest if you kill the wrong people. There is always a way to finish it, but it requires much more from the player and most people probably would never figure it out.
It also gives you a lot more ways to play. There’s no fast travel from the map, but there’s tons of travel options. There are several places through the map that take you from one place to another, but there’s also two spells (that can also be on scrolls) that teleport you to the nearest of a type of structure. There’s mark and recall to mark a place and be able to return there. Then there’s magic like fortifying athletics to jump really far, combined with featherfall or something to land safely, or levitation, or so many other options. You can also use these things on followers, so escorts quests can be accelerated by buffing the NPC. There’s just so much more freedom they started removing after Morrowind.
The world is also designed as a lived in world first seemingly and a video game second. Skyrim especially is designed like an amusement park. Every dungeon is a roller-coaster with a very designed path and no freedom. Morrowind they feel like places, and there are so many ways you can navigate them usually. This can be frustrating, because you can get lost, but it isn’t that bad and feels more interesting than the same thing over and over.
He better look out for that goose!
Technically they have the same minimum wage. If they don’t get back up to minimum wage in tips, the employer is legally required to make up the difference. The issue is most people don’t know this, and so employers get away not doing it. This is one of the many forms of wage theft, the most common form of theft in the US.
Yeah, at this point Blender is ahead in a lot of areas already. It’s just that companies are slow to change and also (I assume) they think it looks less professional to use the free software, regardless of the massive advantages like new employees already being familiar with it.
