The problem with this is that it’s either veto through vote or veto through force. The US can easily flip the table and walk out to try to enforce whatever it wants but that’s obviously bad for world peace so this is its ineffective but less destructive compromise.
It’s still better than splitting up its functionality among three different and even more complicated systems because upper management likes the pretty graphs they produce for their PowerPoint slides.
We’re fed so many lies all the time and when a big, obvious one like this shows up in the stream it’s just another jolt of alarm that my system can’t keep taking anymore. If we lived in happier and more peaceful times I might have enjoyed it even.
Its not uniquely American. Plenty of Mexican and Japanese bars have TVs too. Mexican and American bars love putting on a sports game while Japanese ones show a lot of music videos.
Buy a house and car for every one of my family members. After that I’d set aside a few million to live off the interest and spend the rest on actually fixing problems billionaires and the government refuse to do. Make a robust food distribution system that drastically reduces hunger in the world, build cheap affordable housing in rich people’s neighborhoods, buy out land for the express purpose of installing a proper rail system across the state of California, that sort of thing.
“Do I hear chanting and laser gun sounds?”
This is a culmination of years in which gamers kept getting ignored when they ask for some consideration to their needs like more memory, better Linux drivers, and smaller form factors. Instead we get hit with their server farm AI slop runoff and told this is what we want. To me it’s an insult for wanting something that’s more specialized to gaming and graphical work rather than some LLM platform.
Why does this make it feel like we’re living in Roman times?
Always cover your ass. Take notes of everything, send emails out with important details of who was supposed to do what. It’ll help you avoid trouble when something goes wrong and fingers start being pointed.
If you’re aloof in the office and your campus has several buildings to work at, you can work remote without anyone ever noticing.
How well did it work?
A new Patlabor anime can’t come soon enough.
What’s the end game with YouTube? Will it eventually cut all videos and show nothing but ads?
Lord of the Rings, Gattaca, There’s Something About Mary, Dazed and Confused, The Death of Stalin.
There was a fan campaign asking the director of Tekken 8 to add it as a stage. After being explained why Waffle House is such a good location, he said it’d be difficult to get the rights to use their image for the game.
The patent for the loading screen mini games should expire soon, right? I’m hoping it makes a comeback soon.
Is it okay to bully nazis?
No, and keep your eyes on the road!
Any personal project I’m doing. Talking about it seems to give enough satisfaction to keep me away from continuing it later.
I wish they would publish the battery capacity and fast charge rate. Assuming 4 miles per kWh I estimate it to be around 160kWh. If it can fast charge using a Megawatt charger then it could likely go from 20% to 80% in roughly 10 minutes gaining about 384 miles of range.
Older games were a lot simpler too. No loot boxes, multiple forms of currency - some of which could only be bought with real money, invasive DRM, season passes, content pulled back by selling it to you as DLC, extremely long game times artificially extended by things like mapping gimmicks, giant and almost barren worlds, unoptomized graphics requiring top of the line graphics cards that would still turn your room to a furnace, and massive amounts of bugs and glitches that may or may not be patched out at a later time.
