That doesn’t really contradict their premise about making modern RTS. StarCraft and Age of Empires 2 are ancient at this point. An entire generation of kids has grown up since they came out.
I don’t think the fact that you could make a successful mainstream RTS way back then really says much about whether you could make one in 2024.
It was a tough sacrifice, but the really important thing going forward is making sure Elon gets his 56 billion dollar bonus reinstated that was so cruelly taken away.
Utah is gorgeous.
There are definitely parts of Socal that are ugly. Also parts that are sublime.
Try visiting a not ugly state like California.
But how does that help capitalists make more money by eliminating their competition?
People always complain on Lemmy about Telegram and point at alternatives that are theoretically better in terms of security and privacy.
Yet the security and privacy on Lemmy are good enough that you routinely see governments complaining about how they can’t get at the info on Telegram like this story here, all while Telegram has a UI and experience that blows every competing messenger completely away.
I don’t understand, how does that make money for Facebook and the rest of the domestic web companies that can then be funneled into unregulated SuperPACs for the politicians passing the laws?
What’s the lesson to take away?
Nah I wasn’t being sarcastic.
As I understand it, in engineering these types of mobile space constrained devices you essentially have a “budget” of space. Every hardware feature you include generally eats into this budget and if you want things to be user accessible or repairable it eats into this budget majorly.
That budget has to come from somewhere, so you can pay it with things like reducing the size of your battery or reducing the size of your drivers which in turn represents a reduction in sound quality.
This article seems to omit the most important fact about headphones - how do they sound?
I love repairability and all, but it hardly matters if I don’t want to use them in the first place because they traded off too much quality for repairability.
The problem with applying existing laws is then you’re under the regime of rule of law, and TikTok could escape by complying with the law like anybody else.
This is a xenophobic witchhunt, though, and that won’t do.
Revolutionary! They’ve done it again!
How can I pay?
Seems like one of those things everyone would say in the abstract, particularly on a survey. Then when the studios go for safe projects and the thing they remake is among someone’s personal favorites they’ll watch it anyway, validating the strategy.
It’s crazy to me that people such as you unironically believe the position you’re saying that American companies are easier to crack down on.
We are literally seeing concrete proof in action that domestic companies are much harder to crack down on or regulate. They are much better positioned to lobby and are currently using their immense political power to protect themselves while removing their foreign rivals. There isn’t even talk of taking action against them because they are so politically powerful.
Lmao of course Putin’s allies know trumps plans.
To be fair, you could stop a random person on the streets of America of either major political party and ask them if Trump wins will he give any money to Ukraine and you won’t get a single different answer.
You don’t exactly need an inside line to get this kind of hot tip.
I guess my original point was just agreeing with you on your main point. I figured I was supporting your position by pointing out the media dishonesty extended farther than just Israeli publications. The Ukraine point was a throwaway of another example I thought was fairly straightforward, but whatever, it’s cool, we don’t need to continue this conversation.
Hmm suit yourself.
It’s a funny example of Gell-Mann amnesia at play I suppose.
Just waiting for that Russian military with low morale and hollowed out by corruption to bring us that imminent victory in Ukraine we’ve been promised any day now for the past two years. Keep believing in victory citizen, it’s right around the corner!
Now, I literally do not trust anything that is published in Israel;
It’s pretty stark how much the press in pretty much every Western country has been carrying water for Israel and Ukraine as well.
Big we’re accusing you not because we have evidence but because it’s what we would do vibes.
Doesn’t the USA subsidize electric vehicles a ton too with tax credits and other subsidies at both the consumer and producer levels?
