but if a greedy little pig-boy wants something gone, THAT matters.

because there are situations where you do have moves left, but the end in a repeating pattern; the more “classic” stalemate condition.
there’s just no “special” case for when you have no legal moves, thus it defaults to stalemate
for its time? sure.
nowadays? not really…
the last major release was 11 years ago.
EA let the franchise rot for more than a decade, what does the release of the first have to do with anything??
yeah, i think it’s cracked the 1000$ mark for all content. barely any discounts, and lots of content that REALLY should be in the base game is gated behind dlc.
and i mean content that was available in previous games, that traditionally would have been in the new base game…
pirating is basically the only realistic way to play all of the content now.
and on top of that the game does have some pretty egregious performance and UX issues…
remind me: when was the last sims game released?
excellent, that was very helpful! thanks!
thank you, that’s exactly what i wanted to know!
don’t wanna fight, but i do want some clarification:
were they actually warm blooded, or that pseudo warm blooded thing some reptiles and fish do where they aren’t exactly warm ir cold blooded, but kinda in-between?
i mean…no, he doesn’t.
his handlers know what they’re doing!
trump has never been competent enough to be an effective nazi…which is why project 2025 was created in the first place:
man-childs first dictatorship
now even easier with step-by-step instructions!
much, MICH better than both the U.S. and Canada treat theirs.
and still not as well as they deserve.
yes it is; by definition, in fact.
for additional context:
the anti-jewish sentiment in europe goes back to the early middle-ages, and only fell out of fashion (mostly, until recently) after the holocaust and the de-nazification programs in austria/germany.
same goes for anti-roma/sinti racism and anti-black racism; very old concepts, always convenient tragets for the far-right, since the sentiments are difficult to completely eradicate and easily spread by mass media.
so, the point about shitty journalism stands, and is actually a good point.
the point about calling CP2077 basically a scam and deceptive is not that good of a point.
afaik, the major problem player in the botched release wasn’t CDPR themselves, although they do deserve some of the blame, but Sony:
Cyberpunk was supposed to be one of the flagship/tech-demo titles of PC (Nvidia), PS4 (later PS5), and XBOX (whatever stupid ass designation it had at the time…xXxBoXOnExXx or some shit? …whatever).
development started on the PS4, then it was decided that PC release should happen at the same time as console release, so the PS4 version got ported to PC.
then the PS5 released, so development moved to PS5, which came with a bunch of upgrades and updates to the engine and other components. as one would expect.
same thing happened with PC hardware: new specs, new features, better performance, etc.
then, about 2-ish years (?) before release, along comes Sony and notices that “hey! the original contract said you’d release on PS4!” and CDPR obviously said “well… that’s kinda not possible anymore. the game can’t run on outdated hardware due to its performance requirements.” and Sony threatened with lawsuits and insisted on a last-gen release.
and THAT’S where all the (major) problems started: CDPR was forced (by Sony!) to backport the MUCH more advanced version that was expected to run on MUCH more powerful hardware, which proved borderline impossible.
this proved to be such an enormous undertaking that development on the actual game basically stopped, as they pretty much had to develop an entirely new game for the old console.
given the recent news about Sony, is it really any surprise they made a completely ridiculous decision regarding software they obviously don’t understand the ramifications of?
like i said, CDPR definitely deserves some of the blame here, but most of the blame lies with Sony for enforcing such a ridiculous, and technologically unfeasible, requirement without any understanding (or rather, wilfull ignorance) of the scope of said requirement.
Sony literally would have rather not sold ANY game than adjust their contract. they were being completely unreasonable, yet CDPR commonly gets ALL of the blame, which again, they only deserve a small part of.
that’s because they are forced to by the yt algorithm: you flat out cannot run a business on yt without resorting to clickbait titles, stupid thumbnails, and a bit of sensationalization, because the algorithm will deprioritize your video and unfairly limit your viewership if you don’t do those things.
Steve’s videos are generally very much dry, factual reporting using fairly neutral language; or in other words: really decent reporting!
if you want to complain about some tech youtuber doing the exact things you complain about, look at linus and jay…
there’s some good reasons why steve is one of only a handful of tech channels i still subscribe to…
why do you think he needs that ankle length robe??
as useful and important as having hope is…the title describes determination, not hope.
it’s determination to go on regardless of the likely negative outcome.
hope is the fuel for the “going on”, but the “going on” part is determination.
is the paris-berlin route really that slow?
vienna-munich travels at around 200 km/h…
actually, i think you’re wrong about the ultra-rich being “essentially normal people”.
by all evidence they seem to have developed a serious mental disorder, a kind of trained sociopathy.
I’ve never seen it put in such clear nonchalant terms as in this interview .
give it a watch, it’s extremely interesting and really puts into perspective how…just utterly inhuman the minds of the ultra-rich really are…
there’s evidence of his views going waaay back, they just rarely reached the mainstream…and now it’s just obvious, so there’s a lot of people genuinely surprised because he used to at least thinly veil his awful views.
but it was always there…
