Last I looked into it the risk was moving to an entirely different game engine with Godot. Different features, APIs, capabilities. Godot in particular doesn’t port the greatest outside of PC.
Although the article was more about making the first one.
Well the entity system adds an entirely new branch of research, that works separately from workbenches. To make fast progress in the darker research you need mutliple sources of dark research in the form of trapped entities. A LOT can go into the containment of some of these entities, basically making sure you have a room that can actually hold some of this stuff. So from there I actually prefer the research loop to the main method. Not only that it doesn’t take AN ENTIRE PAWN’S DAY to actually perform. I haven’t caught anything SUPER nasty yet, but I see the pieces that will require a supermax of entity containment. I kinda feel like I could forgo research and move direct into the darker research. Make an army of ghouls.
Honestly I feel like it’s definitely bigger than the royalty DLC, and I’m only about five hours in.
I mean, Microsoft isn’t free. Linux is.
I think it’s a mix that varies state from state based off the latest polling.
Perhaps the main use for technology is increasing the amount of inequality society can tolerate without collapse. I can’t fix inequality – that just seems to be what the humans want.
However by investing in surveillance technology, computer vision, and AI I could perhaps help our society to bear unbounded amounts of inequality indefinitely, without collapse. Social collapse is a less-than-zero-sum game, whereas an unequal society is still generally more-than-zero-sum. So I posit that the latter is objectively better.
… Are you suggesting that we increase inequality to make the world better? Like we need an overlord, be it robot or human, and the rest of the population needs to be placated, worked to the bone, and easily replaced?
I gotta assume I am just vastly misunderstanding something in this argument, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what it is. Is it just sarcastic?
point #1
No, it wasn’t. We didn’t keep the secret. USSR successfully stole secrets. They also knew we were up to an atomic bomb. I don’t know why you think they didn’t.
Point #2
Imagine if someone told you that Europeans never went back to the New World after Columbus.
That would be ridiculous because there was good free unclaimed land. While it’s never explicitly said, free unclaimed land requires oxygen, food, and water. Otherwise it’s not land you can live on, it’s land you can work on while someone keeps you alive.
We should have the Moon setup like it was in the Sam Rockwell movie: Moon by now.
Why? In the arctic we can measure the weather of the poles, study long term isolation of humans. We don’t need to provide water or air, transportation is cheap compared to the moon. The marianas trench allows us to study formation of the earth, genetics of crazy offshoots of earth biology. Evacuation procedure is UP, taking hours. Moon trip is 6 days round trip, can’t be cancelled or evacuated. Both are drops in the bucket in price vs the moon.
With the moon you can… well what? A telescope could be awesome but if you’re going that far you could also just drop one off at a Lagrange point of the earth. Mining sounds great until you realize that bringing the resources home require either an entire manufacturing hub on the moon to launch resources at earth. You won’t see returns for decades, any fuck up could ruin it all. Telescopes are unmanned, so drop it somewhere and it lasts as long as it lasts.
I believe the moon landing was faked.
The USSR acknowledged that we made it, there’s no reason for them to lie.
We plopped retroreflectors on the moon, so you can shoot lasers at them and bounce them back.
multiple groups were able to track the missions via radio transmissions, which isn’t someone saying “oh look they said they’re in space so they must be” It’s mutiple locations saying. “I’m recieving this signal from this direction at this time. Judging from all this data, they’re halfway to the moon.”
Why would we lie about it? If it’s about stealing the money that went into it we already have 60% of the pentagon budget unaccounted for. If it’s about deceiving the soviets how could we possibly trick them? If it’s about raising nationalism why not pull an FDR and minimize poverty?
just… no. If you want to push this then you need some hard evidence. You’re the one making the extraordinary claim.
As an aside, do you also think the James Webb telescope fake? That is as nuts as the moon landing, and is still friggin THERE.
Secondly (more controversially), is a picture of a noose racist? I mean, it certainly has racist connotations and I personally wouldn’t have used it, but (bear with me) I’m not sure racist is the concrete conclusion. Lots of people have been hung throughout history, if you’re not viewing it through a racial lens then are you a racist or just very insensitive.
I see what you’re saying… but it seems like a technicality that’s not worth exploring here.
If instead it was a guillotine with a caption of “this year’s detention activity”… it’s really not any better. Like it’s no longer racist but… now it’s just purely about killing kids in a more equitable homicidal format. It’s very dark humor in a very public place.
It’s a lot of time and effort and argument to debate “yeah this was terrible but it might not have been racist”. Does a definitive answer of “at least it wasn’t racist” make this appreciably any better? Does it make them any more likely to get a teaching job after this?
It also doesn’t change the core argument the teacher is making in the story. “You lumped me in with a bunch of racists because I was white. I took down the image because it was offensive. Obviously. Why would I leave it up if it was offensive?”
I know but if they were smart they’d say they’re gonna take an hour to do it, find the footage in 10 minutes and goof off another 50.
Pull a Scotty, then you’re productive and lazy. It’s just disappointing they can’t even procrastinate properly. I feel bad.
I mean, in the era of VHS this won’t work because ultimately you’re fast forwarding and rewinding. So you’re gonna watch it anyway. but in the digital era I thought this would be what any Police officer did?
Like… they’re not even gonna spend 10 minutes on a theft?
What is the beginning of eternity, the end of time, the beginning of every end, and the end of every place?
E, it’s a really mean one when delivered verbally
Am I the only chaotic neutral here? I code on the right and do everything else on the left.
I mean, it’s another example of the lack of attention to detail and rushing, but yeah.
PSA:
Edge is also what you should use whenever you’re making a public presentation and need to open a browser.
Why? Because you never use edge, therefore autocomplete is almost empty which means you can type:
With full confidence that NOTHING will appear that you will not want public.
For me it’s very much dependent on the topic at hand.
Coding, kbin, email, calendar, dark.
Still gotta work in light mode on word… just looks wrong otherwise.
