Something something Indian something something
Anyways, the human trafficking flow is the opposite for South Asia. The oil rich nations like KSA and UAE are notorious for enslaved labor by trapping poor people trying to find work abroad with promises of a living wage and foreign national status.
Which is why their foreign abused labor is mostly Pakistani, Indian, and Sri Lankan.
Pakistan is also so ridiculously starved of international tourism that foreigners have trouble trying to pay for stuff because the locals offer too much.
Some examples:
I thought the point of using AI placeholder graphics was for mock up purposes so the level designers, writers, animators, etc. have an idea of the intended look the artist wants before the artist gets to that section and actually fills it in with their talent, or finalizes their nth edit to where they are satisfied to merge their additions.
Otherwise, why doesn’t everyone just use the purple/black missing texture map everywhere?
I’d even go so far as to assume the artist threw his scratch sketches at an AI and told it to make the mockups so the rest of the dev team doesn’t miss the general idea.
I have no idea if this is actually the case, but why would anyone go out of their way to get an AI to generate a reusable texture otherwise? It would literally be faster to just select a pre-existing option from the game engine library or even just make your own with a quick image tile + save.


Right? I was like dang you’re already half way there lol.
The reason though is that they probably don’t want to discourage payments because I have seen businesses refuse to use Monero in ransomware attacks because their insurance agreement complicates payout on a fundamentally untraceable currency. Even if Bitcoin is technically decentralized, they can report the transaction and specific currency blocks to whatever federal agency is responsible for fraud.
Still, why not offer both and put a 5% discount on Monero.


Hah I actually remembered this too, and people were still hyping Elon Musk at the time as well.
TBF the researchers knew what they had could be scaled into something gamebreaking which is how we got ChatGPT-3, but OpenAI made it sound like they already had it nailed down several years before it actually blew up. I think their unreleased examples they gave were a newspaper and short story written by AI which they said was indistinguishable from human material.


I’m pretty sure its shopped because I’ve never seen a machine with actual displays in it for each flavor lol. They all use paper cut outs.


The first person I met who used Mint was asking me how to fix his Nvidia output stutter lol.
The answer was updated kernel shenanigans which is probably Mint’s only weakness.
Anyways, that’s usually why I recommend Fedora since I think it properly fits the same spot where Ubuntu was like 15 years ago. Cutting edge stable, large community, and much easier support than something more downstream.
That being said, a good chunk of users have been quite happy with stuff like Bazzite and CachyOS because they’re mostly here to play games.
But yeah I agree, the popular recommendations of the week really need to be ignored for first time users. I still remember when they were pretty much all just Ubuntu downstreams that never fixed any of the upstream issues that Canonical created, which led to a ton of youtubers thinking Linux stability was behind.
On a similar note, it’s also why I recommend literally any DE except GNOME. It looks and functions like a knockoff ChromeOS tablet, despite the fact that it used to be the home of Compiz 15+ years ago, which is the peak of desktop UX lol.
That’s some garbage W/R and it also doesn’t mean anything unless they share their account name so we can look at the gameplay stats which shows how good they actually are in whatever ship they play in lol.
I’ve seen a guy with 10,000+ games that were almost all in PvE, so he was dogwater in literally every other gameode.
The amount of times this has happend with Nintendo leaves me mystified on why modders and devs don’t bother to use anonymizing tools like Tor.
Its like when you buy a 1tb drive and the real capacity shows up as like 920Gb lol


Honestly they’d probably throw you on a list for not using the internet lol.


Man I can’t wait to upgrade my device/GPU with AV1 hardware support

I think Denuvo technically does a little bit of this.
I forgot the exact details, but one of the keys that’s used to unscramble the bytecode has to be downloaded from their registry server on first launch.
But after that, it’s not required.
That one scooby doo meme where they uncover the sheet to discover it’s utilitarianism.
Now we just need to make Warthunder not work on linux…
Gaijin devs have us all by the crotch lol.
I would kill for a competitor game. I’d even be happy with a proper DCS arcade mod that let’s you do the same stuff as WT realistic battles.


Ahaha jokes on you, I haven’t updated my dependencies in years so I only have to deal with debilitating CVEs


They don’t have any lunar module in their package. Best bet would be to just burn back into LEO and dock with a competently designed spacecraft to rescue the crew.
Except NASA has a sore history of being in this exact scenario and they opted to go with “screw it” which led to the second shuttle disaster.


Nah it was an insane patent that got reevaluated after a crap ton of complaints because Nintendo filed it in light of Palworld and their eventual lawsuit.
It really should not have been approved in the first place, and the scope was so wide that it drew a ton of attention from businesses completly unrelated to gaming.
The US tarrif thing is separate, so it probably didn’t have any effect here.
Fedora
OpenSUSE if you want something non American and not directly related to RedHat
Wouldn’t that just be a scaled up version of Saw?
