I doubt the actual functionality will ever go away, even if they pretend it does.

Is it even review bombing if it's for a legit issue with the game in question?

Hi, I'm a Finn. We also have a variation of this.

Ronald's Universal Number Kounter sounds like someone did it on purpose.

output voltage must be the same

Or check what the laptop accepts. Sometimes it is a range.

That's a good jest

Sorry, I somehow thought the top of this thread was you.

I now got what you were actually saying.

I don't know anything about this case, but if we don't know the truth, shouldn't both parties be treated as innocent?

I'm wary of branding him a rapist or sexual assaulter...

I feel that questioning his appearance because of those accusations is exactly that.

Servers cost money to operate and maintain.

They don't have do do that.

And publishers aren't interested in losing control of an IP

They don't have to do that.

or supporting them indefinitely.

They don't have to do that.

Now that I wrote that thrice, I feel like it reads as passive aggressive, but that wasn't the intention. Anyway, the only requirement is to not brick the game, which shouldn't be a problem for any game that contains a singleplayer mode.

For online-multiplayer-only games the publisher would actually have to work some solution, which costs money. I'm interested to see how that goes.

Why run your electrons through a dumb space heater when you can run them through a very convoluted rube goldberg space heater that renders polygons?

“Immensely disappointing”: Nike killing app for $350 self-tying sneakers

It is hard to imagine that there was not someone inside of Nike that lost their faith in humanity when the pitch for these things was originally taking off.

LLMs certainly hold potential, but as we’ve seen time and time again in tech over the last fifteen years, the hype and greed of unethical pitchmen has gotten way out ahead of the actual locomotive. A lot of people in “tech” are interested in money, not tech. And they’re increasingly making decisions based on how to drum up investment bucks, get press attention and bump stock, not on actually improving anything.

The result has been a ridiculous parade of rushed “AI” implementations that are focused more on cutting corners, undermining labor, or drumming up sexy headlines than improving lives. The resulting hype cycle isn’t just building unrealistic expectations and tarnishing brands, it’s often distracting many tech companies from foundational reality and more practical, meaningful ideas.

Clouds are lovely and fluffy and rather difficult to make.In this video I attempt to create clouds from code in the Unity game engine.

 

Explored a few of the latest techniques in procedural cloud rendering used in Horizon: Zero Dawn and the FrostBite engine.

 

Rigging is the key to making a 3D character ready to animate, but everyone finds it so intimidating. Even I was afraid of it at first. But now I find it beautiful, so I want to show you how it works!
