Only a matter of time before plant-based alternatives fully take over from meat. Meat farming is not sustainable, as you mention all the land used to farm food for animals could be used to just farm more food for us directly.
We just have to get rid of the stigma around plant-based “meat”.
But one thing it also demonstrated was peoples will for power and recognition, no matter how small. They enjoy being mods, it makes them feel above others, so there will always be someone willing to trade morals to take the position.
Ubisoft lost it after AC Brotherhood.
Ah got ya, yea read into that selling, certainly a weird situation.
Just ignore the “triple A” industry and games are usually great. Lots of small passionate studios still pumping out quality stuff.
So these are just re-releases of Simple Mobile Tools?
Saying please to an AI is funny to me. But I guess I will be the first to die in the robot uprising.
Or maybe saying please got you the correct answer and it’s a lesson to always use your manners!
This has to be satire, right?
What’s new and advanced about this? Hasn’t it all already existed in some form? It’s just been Apple-ified, no? It’s just a VR headset, an actual AR headset is something like HoloLens.
Beyond the tech, who is even the target audience for this? I only see it as a gimmick, one for just Apple geeks to buy. One of the reasons 3DTV’s failed is because nobody wanted to wear the glasses, so why would anyone want to strap this to their face just to do something they already do or could do on their TV/computer/phone?
You can already pretty much do everything this can with an existing VR headset in one way or another, for a lot cheaper.
It’s a bizzare product.
Even when they get a new user on Linux, they still then scrutinise their choice of distribution, if not that then their IDE. There’s no winning and it’s off-putting for people considering the jump.
I want to adjust my app volume and be done with it, I dont want to adjust my master volume everytime. Besides if I turn down my master volume, now my music is quieter, I have to adjust that, people I am talking to are quieter and I have to adjust that.
In my setup I have a volume knob for each of these on a macropad, but I just turn down the desktop audio knob when starting a new game up, then reset the volume back after I adjust the in-game setting. So I personally have worked around it, but 99.9% of people wont have this so they have to use the OS volume control, which makes this a bigger annoyance.
If apps just didnt start at 100% it wouldnt be an issue, too quiet for some or too loud for some is better than max volume for everyone, which is guaranteed to ear rape some people.
If I turn my Windows volume or my amp down any more then other applications become too quiet while they are at 100% volume.
The point is 100% shouldn’t be a target aimed for. If my system is at 50% master volume, 100% on applications should still be too loud, you need headroom both up and down for different scenarios. If I play with friends and need speaker audio, then I need the volume louder for them.
I can adjust my PC volume on the fly with a knob, but adjusting the whole volume everytime throws everything out of whack, now my YouTube will be too quiet, other games I start up will need their volumes adjusting again etc.
So realistically its better if you keep your volume at a set level and then adjust the apps to get it perfect, the problem is apps defaulting to max volume for that moment of ear rape.
Defaulting to 50% volume would be a good start, might be too quiet for some, might still be too loud for others. But at least it’s not guaranteed to blow most peoples ears out.
Yeah there’s a lot of variables for audio depending on peoples setups, but having the volume default to 100% is not the correct thing for applications to do, ever.
Dragons are much cooler than Wyverns, why do they keep getting dunked on like this :(
Its funny because they started it from a conservative trying to prove the people wont do it. Said conservative then resigned when people went ahead and did it.
I think, if the person in question is comfortable with such, it’s okay to mention like ‘first X as Y’ as it shows some progression and awareness that anybody can now achieve anything and can encourage other people with the same or similar traits.
But yeah, hopefully once we get past that, we can get back to people being recognised for what they do, rather than what they look like or who they would prefer to fuck.
Eventually the world will come to a point where sexuality, race and such isn’t called out, it becomes irrelevant to mention, as all is accepted. I hope anyway.
Prices are coming down, but they won’t come down a lot until more people buy it, but more people wont buy it unless it’s cheaper…
Here’s hoping there’s some more restrictions imposed on meat.
