Sorry to derail, but what a coincidence, I think I might have that very same cross-body bag

This reads like something a Sovereign citizen would write.
The first amendment allows you to say whatever you want without threat of arrest, but it doesn’t give carte blanche to do whatever you want whilst saying it.
If you’re on private property after closing time to the public, then you’re trespassing, regardless of why you’re there.
The threat of arrest is something you have to accept if you’re going to protest in a disruptive way - the ones you’re protesting against will do anything they legally can to get you to stop.
I was a bit of a picky eater when I was younger, but I’ve become much, much less so over the years - one of the few things I’ve never come around on is olives. The taste and texture combination just don’t work for me
Has NYT only just figured out now that the nuance was never in Hamas being “the good guys” or not?
Hamas may be better than Israel right now in that they’re not actively pulling a genocide, but nobody apart from Hamas thinks Hamas are really the good guys in this - but Hamas being a horrid government doesn’t then somehow justify Israel’s genocide against the “Everyday Palestinians” Hamas are oppressing.
While it certainly is a bit of a captain obvious moment that exposure to far-right echo chambers helped radicalise vulnerable people into the far-right, but I can see the merit in having empirical evidence supporting what we see (as OP said) - it is a lot easier to dismiss an andecdote than statistical evidence
Damn, you definitely didn’t catch their pretty side
Honestly I’d still argue there’s diminishing returns on this front as well.
I play plenty of older titles, and I wouldn’t say I notice that much of a difference - though that is my very subjective opinion
Of course there are, and I do - but the focus of the article, and thus the thread was on the AAA gaming space and its obsession with graphics.
Smaller studios and Indies already figured out the whole “you don’t need to be able to see every fibre of a character’s hair in order for a game to be good” thing
I would definitely like to have duck more often. I only rarely get it for myself as a treat but god damn is it the best bird going.
Honestly, I have to agree with the article - while you could say graphics have improved in the last decade, it’s nowhere near as much as the difference as the decade before that.
I’d easily argue that the average AAA game from a decade ago looks just as good on a 1080/1440p display as the average AAA game today - and I’d still bet the difference wouldn’t be that noticeable for 4K either.
And what do we gain for that diminishing return on graphics?
Singleplayer games are being made smaller, or vapid “open worlds”, and cost more due to more resources going to design teams rather than the rest of the game.
Meanwhile multiplayer games get less frequent and smaller updates, and that gets padded out with aggressive micro-transactions.
I hate that “realistic” graphics has become such an over-hyped selling point in games that it’s consuming AAA gaming in its entirety.
I would love for AAA games to go back to being reasonably priced with plainer looking graphics, so that resources can actually be put into making them more than just glorified tech demos.
Go figure. Conservative judge does everything she can to delay the trial, and then postpones it, making sure no new judge will be able to catch up with the case in time for the election.
It’s fucked up how overtly horrid and traitorous conservatives are nowadays - the founding fathers put too much faith in people when they made that constitution.
Good resellers do, but I think my point still stands - why risk any of that when Microsoft doesn’t get your money either way?
MAS/Massgrave works effectively, is open source, is well-documented, and literally free.
Yeah, my parents took this approach with veggies too. Luckily it didn’t put me off completely, but I can certainly see how it could.
It’s a shame how many of my parent’s generation just don’t know how to cook anything that isn’t boil it in a pot until it’s soft - it isn’t like the other, tastier methods are difficult or take longer either.
Honestly, it makes sense. Something’s gotta give or we’re all fucked. We should already be eating less red meat and dairy anyway since they’re less healthy than white meat and milk alternatives - adding the economic incentive would be a push in the right direction to be healthier and more eco-friendly.
Considering the grey market is filled with dodgy keys, it’d be better to just pirate, especially when there are easy and safe ways to do it like with MAS
If you must have MS office, then I’d go with MAS/Massgrave like others have said.
It’s well documented, requires minimal setup (if going default route), and is much less risky than going into the grey market for keys or downloading cracks elsewhere.
Went to check - had personalised Ads off on every account I have already, so I guess I won’t be seeing what Google’s got on me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Why would anyone agree to a deal knowing your publically stated intention is to break said deal?
That’d be like me selling you an IPhone, telling you it’s actually a brick, then expecting you to still buy it
Selotape? It’d have to be something that sticks on it’s own
I was just surprised to see el cheapo in the wild - though for a cheap backpack it’s surprisingly durable, out-lasted some of my nicer packs haha
