Of course some could, but if everyone is impacted then why would they eat the cost? Also they can add a few percentages and blame it on tarrif.

Like how the messaging from covid immediately shifted once the media started using the "i" word.

"We understand the blocked canal, shuttered factories, and overall stagnant supply chain is a problem but we will work together in this crisis"

To

"Sorry inflation. Record profits? No inflation"

I feel like the haters over exaggerate. Like they say that raytracing will never happen and shouldnt. Technology will eventually improve and methods get better. Saying never and getting upset that there is an option to toggle in a game that pushes graphics is wrong. Its silly to think otherwise.

That said I think a lot of the hesitancy and fear comes from the worry that we will be moving forwards too quickly. As it stands the hardware that isnt just adequate with upscaling but good at ray tracing is like $1000-$2000. AMD cards are at a handicap as well. I think the fear is that the industry dives in too fast and abandons the old lighting techniques leaving people with lower end hardware behind or with a low setting that looks way worse than the older methods of lighting.

I think the fear is unfounded though since consoles will always be the primary target and A) They use amd or nvidia's mobile chip and B) they have to have a competitive price. As a result it will be a long while before we go all in on ray tracing.

He jumps with honor

Hes probably like spok. Neutral enough to be the same on both sides. Mirror Voyager has gotta be wild tho

I mean, it's not wrong. I expect quite a lot of lewd and rude content as well.

Will be very neat to see the community reaction to this. To this day dooms open source engine is prolific. I imagine this will be amazing for fan and indie games

While we did dump most of our tea in boston harbor way back when, some did make it's way through our borders since then.

Yeah at it's best reddit is an aggregate of content from around the web and a message board.

The only thing I can think of that this makes sense for is to keep the onlyfans people who promote on reddit(or got started on gonewild) to stay on reddit. I feel like reddit is probably not trying to get more in bed with providing porn so Im curious exactly what the application could be otherwise.

Ive been enjoying pixelfed lately.

Unfortunately Ive got family who's voted for him who at least buy into some of the BS. Ive heard the buyout as a good deal considering theyre going to fire you anyway and stuff like that.

The right wing propoganda chain is strong. From the moment reagan deregulated the airwaves to now. Christian radio feeding into am talk, am talk stroking egos while painting narratives of victimhood and then social media and the death of local newspapers absolutely drove it all up to 11. It doesnt help that while this was happening the neolibs were disinvesting in the working class, and didnt have a proper counter to it. There were virtue signalling but still very wealthy hollywood elites kinda giving some crumbs of representation in films I guess and of course smarmy personalities like bill mahr. Which of course only helped serve to reinforce enough right wing talking points to help begin the radicalization process.

It sucks because I think a lot of conservatives when you talk to them about what they actually believe you do get fairly leftest beliefs. Like I know when I talk to my dad he'll say things sometimes that are practically radically leftist, but then he'll twist his logic into knots to explain why thats why he voted the way he did.

I feel like if the dems didnt abandon the working class the republicans would have less fuel to burn.

I understand that propaganda went unobstructed for decades in this country before finally transitioning to social media where it amped up. The death of local reporting and trusted newspapers also helped aid this nonsense.

That said it is hard for me to comprehend how one can look at the richest man in the world being appointed in a position where he without transparency tears down government agencies(illegally I might add), and does not divest from his gigantic companies that are now being rewarded with a 400million dollar gift contract. Like how is buying 400million dollars in tesla trucks to do something that more conventional vehicles can do efficient? How is that not see immediately as blatantly corrupt?
