My understanding is that Unreal is a garbage engine for optimization at face value, it has a lot of useful tools and a lot of incorrect/dated documentation for those tools some of which are also just kind of configured wrong as their default settings. If effort is put into optimization to configure things correctly and only use the various tools like nanite or lumen in their actual use cases (rather than just throwing them on everything) you can get some pretty fantastic optimization.

TLDR: Good but complex tools marketed as low effort with bad defaults and exagerated marketing.

I found 1 and 2 were games I could both replay at least once. With 2 the only bad bit to replay is bricks area where the devs just spammed a ton of very spongy enemies in a big map. 3 had more fun vault hunters mechanically but even during the first playthrough so much of it feels like filler content (like literally ALL of Hammerlocks area) and the final boss is somehow even more dissapointing than BL1, trying to play through a second time is at least 2/3 “Oh god not this bit again”.

Its worth remembering that EU fines are not one and done, if you don’t fix the problem they fine you repeatedly.

Isn’t this the 1 letter typo where removing it makes the game massively better?

To be fair fusion energy got less than the minnimum ‘fusion never’ funding, AI on the other hand is getting all the money in the damn world.

I feel like LLMs didn’t hit a deadend so much as people started trying to use them in completely inappropriate applications.

I feel like 1 had the best vibe, 2 had the best story (but also the worst balance) and 3 had the most fun vault hunter designs.

Also often updates to prior DLC content.

10 Mbps is like average Scotland internet unless you’re in a major city.

Invidious sadly doesn’t allow for an account and subscriptions, at least not without running your own server which appears… complex.

Last time though there was a one generation gap before new jobs appeared and a bunch of people got to die of cholera in overcrowded conditions.

McDonalds where I live also still just uses the behind the counter menus (no kiosk menu) so you kind of need to walk over there anyway to be able to make out the actual text of the menu underneath the constantly scrolling advertisements that keep covering it.

The problem with conservatism is you eventually run out of others peoples stuff to sell.

Exactly, We created an increasingly awful world to live in, its no wonder people want to try and live in a different one as much as possible.

What I really don’t get is that there are in fact models that you can feed a document too and they will directly copy/paste quote relevant parts of that document in their reply complete with a little reference to the correct page. Basically a smarter ctrl-F function that can take sentences as input.

When that exists why is google using the probabilistic shit in their search?

Unions are part of the social contract, its very simple. Those that have aren’t too harsh on those who have less, or we drag them into the street and tear them limb from limb like wild animals. We’re simply working through the various stages between complaints and dismemberment.

Just out of curiosity how does one connect to the snowflake in the event that normal Tor does not work? (in minecraft)

People who fawn over generative AI haven’t tried to use it for more than 5 seconds. I wish it could run a ttrpg game for me or even just remember the details of its original prompt but its not even close.

Happened to me, happened again with KSP, I will own nothing and be kinda pissed off about it apparently.

Governments fail to implement incredibly obvious, easy, and proven solutions all the time so yeh they can be pretty dumb. Not to mention historical examples of governments (paricularly the UK when it was a world superpower) investing their entire economies in nigerian prince tier scams.
