    Palworld! Where Ark meets pokemon.

    Nintendo makes great games, but on the business side of things they are HORRIBLY anti-competitive an litigious. Have been for decades. It's not the first time they've used their patent portfolio and a bludgeon and likely won't be their last. This is the company that patented Dr Mario's...

    Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    My brain hurts after reading that. Too much stupid.

    The "What made you happy today" thread!

    Similar default shortcut for KDE Plasma is Windows-w(it also defaults to being triggered by moving the mouse to the top-left of the screen, but I hate that, so I turn it off).

    AI don't trust techbros

    So Altman tanks the company by pissing off the talent and gets a bonus.... Sounds like Musk is just upset he didn't do it first.

    Funny, always thought they were a for profit company.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Just goes to show he doesn't understand crime at all. Deputizing a bunch of vigilantes to fight crime won't solve anything, just get a bunch of innocent people hurt. Crimes would start back up immediately after the window ends. He also lumps in anyone who criticizes him as a criminal, which...

    He also wasn't shot at the golf course, the only shots fired were by the secret service.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Likely only has concepts of a deal.

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    I tend to agree that we shouldn't care how long dead people think things should be run in today's society, but understanding what their thoughts on the matters of their day were can help us understand the past, and understanding the past is one of the best ways to understand why things are the...

    Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    Wouldn't be surprised if Elon buys it, but really I can see any wealthy extreme-right person looking for a propaganda platform to own to take a stab at buying it.

    Procedural generation IS used in movies, and has been for a long time. Pixar developed a procedural hair system for Brave. The waves in Titanic, proceduraly generated by a set of rules. Only difference now is that they are moving the algorithms from the super-tedious things to the standard...

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Heck, Carson wasn't even the first host of the series, he was the third. Was the longest running host, though. 30 years is quite a run.

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    I cringe any time people act like the founding fathers were all on the same page. Frankly, the fact that the Constitution was ratified at all is remarkable. Their views on states rights, slavery, the economy etc. all varied greatly.

    Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

    Look, Ideally none of the attacks should have occurred, but if they ARE going to occur this sort of attack isn't nearly as bad as randomly firing rockets indiscriminately or using high yield explosives(much bigger blast radius that what we've seen here) to take out one person. It's a tragedy...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Sorry, Vance.... You're not Adam Savage, you can't reject this reality and replace it with your own.

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    Musk doesn't care. He likes to benefit from scientific achievement, but radio telescopes don't pad his pocket book. The discovery of things thousands of light-years away might benefit his descendants, but won't help him tomorrow, after all. This is a man who takes sci-fi cautionary tales as...

    Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

    This is about as precision as explosives can be, unfortunately. If someone is standing near someone who happens to have an exploding pager, the chances of collateral damage are high. Bombs don't discriminate.... Still it's much better than lobbing rockets at locations where you think an...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    They are grasping at straws at this point. Trump continues to slip in the polls, even after the second assassination attempt, mostly because he won't keep his mouth shut, and neither will his VP pick. I swear it's like Trump has really grown to like the taste of his own foot since Biden...

    Star Trek General Discussion

    Main crew complement was around 1k. Family along for the ride was likely around that much as well, still well under capacity. The Galaxy class ships still in service by the Dominican war probably had a major personnel increase. Gotta have ground assault troops ready and more pilots and...
