Just finishing up Episode 4 of the Quake remaster on nightmare difficulty. Episodes 1-3 were challenging, but my god these exploding bouncy ball “spawns” in E4 are such rage fuel.
Only 3 more levels then I move on to the expansions. First time playing those, so looking forward to it!
No but you should acquire a friend or two so you can check in on eachother periodically. Yeah I’m a loner too and I know it’s a bother, but just do it. The benefits are many and well documented.
It’s just being pragmatic. I have a pact with a friend that we’ll adopt the others’ dog if something happens to us
They’re also getting increasingly more efficient at funneling profits to the top, rather to the greatest value producers: labourers. This is wage theft. Get it all the way to 100% and you have slavery.
Though important to note that slavery does not just meant you don’t get paid. Though I don’t think anyone needs a splainer on that.
Comments don’t just drop out of coconut trees, they exist within the context of a posting history
Can confirm
Yeah riding the bubble let a couple of nerds and early investors maybe take advantage of a little economic mobility, like, incidentally. But those days are long passed now. Like you said, it’s rigged in favour of entrenched capital, just like everything else now.
And it doesn’t have to work perfectly to be worth it. Even if through rich-person fuckery they manage to stuff their (overseas) mattresses with hidden income, I’d bet the net result would be more €€€ in the public coffres.
Ah I misunderstood. I see we’re in total agreement.
Still glad I made my comment, if only as a foil against general doomerism.
Nice
I think it’s a great target to aim for. That’s an unfathomable income to most people, so it should at least have popular support
Some of them, sure, but I wonder how many would consider it worth the price. This is an income taxe I’m assuming, so it’s not like they’d lose out on actual wealth, investments, etc.
It might be worth it if even just half stay and pay the taxe.
The a Hero of Lime…y
Someone please one up me, it can’t end like this
Nah I’m into it
Bet they’ll be going zero-trust next project increment though lol
Welcome to the wonderful world of long form video essay deep dives!
Tell me you don’t add alt text to your posts without telling me :p
I imagine it’s a 2D array? So width would be captured by uhh like a[N].len.
It could be I’m misunderstanding you, because not not sure what you mean by:
linear data with varying sectioning content
Yes, and our western economies and democracies are best situated to make them pay. Those bastards are the rotted flower that bloomed from our corpus
I remember my friend’s brother secretly installed a graphics card on the family PC and we first noticed because when we started playing Half-Life one day it looked all smooth and "milky.
I think they did it because they could? Like more pixels = more hi def. But of course the textures weren’t actually high res, so everything is interpolated
Whoa now save some for the rest of us
