I have but one question.

Do you wear spandex, OP?

To be fair, BG3 is like bottled lightning, and I think it’s unreasonable to expect many (if any) other studios to produce something like that.

Even the Divinity games were way above par, with a much more lukewarm (but not unsuccessful, I guess?) reception.

If the trial is televised/streamed, it could be an OJ type thing that keeps going.

But… probably, yeah.

I’d say one major difference is that most US citizens are just ignorant of what’s going on and don’t contort themselves to support whatever war crime Netanyahu is committing now or play “what about X country.” Yeah a few old gheezers remember when Israel was fighting for survival, which is apparently who Biden caters to, but they are living in a different decade.

If the US, my country, invaded Mexico for being “A proxy against the US” and isolating us or whatever, I would sure as hell want China and Russia to send the narcos nukes for us being such morons, and would take every opportunity to give my government the middle finger, not justify invading a country with a microscopic fraction of our military power. I would hope we fail, miserably, so maybe the lesson sticks this time and the president gets kicked out, no matter what the Mexicans actually did.

Their reputation and past reporting is supposed to back up things they state as facts (like assuming that reviews they cite are real) for practicality and brevity. Imagine having to document every bit of background research in a presentable way.

They could have included screenshots though.

And the skepticism is healthy. I do personally ‘trust’ Axios (which I read almost daily but regularly double check).

The American way is to bail them out financially, then re-elect them.

Ah yeah I meant Sweeny.

Epic Games is not publicly traded.

And TBH their history with Unreal is not that bad. And Valve is already extracting a truckload of money out of us through their percentage cut.

Carmack is absolutely a character though, lol. I have to wonder how controversial EGS would be without him.

Its happened to me after a full day too.

I am just using the browser UI, and just mean the notifications on the site.

Sometimes I get a reply with no notification even within Lemmy, and someone else said this happens to them too.

What do you mean, are you on some client that has notifications disabled by default?

Genuine fediverse noob here.

Now this is a good reason.

And random note, but I didn’t get a notification for this reply?

Right but I dont see how its anything but a minor annoyance.

Like, if the game is really good… What is so bad about installing the epic client?

I get it being annoying… But why is it such a deal breaker? If the game is good, why not just install it, play the game, leave it when you’re done?

The other storefronts have some cool features (namely gamepass for xbox and all of steamworks and the app stuff for steam), but it doesn’t really matter if the game doesn’t use em.

I would also ask yourself if this is beneficial at all.

Look at their historical prices. Investors have already bought into this.

There’s no way. I think he’s legit too old, and he only needs 1 term to pardon himself and everyone he wants.

That’s because ollama’s default max ctx is 2048, as far as I know.

My mom went to an integrated school in the South, made friends… but sometimes overheard racist slurs and threats behind closed doors. Same story with family I have now, all pleasent in public, friends with some gay family members. But vehemently anti-vaccine and such behind closed doors… I have horrible stories I can’t even repeat.

The duality is unreal.

A question is where that behind-doors comes from… a lot is from church. Church like you’ve never seen if you haven’t been to the South.

Beerhall Coup

I was not aware of this.

Wonderful…

Older Americans remember an old Israel, struggling to just get by.

Younger Americans… largely don’t know anything about it. They know it’s some country in the Middle East, but have no idea what’s going on in gaza. TBH I did not growing up. It’s not taught in school, it’s not common knowledge unless your origins/family are from the region.
