do what the right wing does

Maybe with just a little less cross burning, lynching, and religious extremism.

Nope, many of us are operating on a unique blend of obliviousness, fatalism, and not-enough-energy-to-give-a-shit, that renders us not afraid of much, other than obvious sources of physical harm, like falling off a ladder.

Yes. And Biden was chosen, which includes Harris being next up if Biden couldn't perform the duties of president for any reason. If Democrats didn't want the status quo, they should have chosen someone other than Biden.

The best way I've seen anyone put it is that by the time the election arrives, you are exclusively in damage control mode. If you want actual change, you have to have it done by getting your personal choice voted in during the primaries.

"the echo chair" that's not a thing (at least not in English). And if your not failing, that would imply that you are still in history class, and maybe you haven't learned about world war two yet, in which case you should probably refrain from talking about things you don't know yet.

I think it has less to do with their attitude on sex, and more to do with the availability of actual porn. I'm an older millenial, and even I'm of the opinion that full on sex scenes very rarely add anything to the plot. Implied sex is often more than enough to do the required plot advancement. If I wanted the sex specifically, I'd just go watch porn.

Either you aren't communicating what you actually mean, or you didn't just fail by a little bit.

You must have failed history class.

Even using ai for environments. Plenty of open world games will have you looking at the exact same patch of grass and the exact same trees. Even getting ray traced lighting effects to work at life-like settings, running at at least 4k90, will take a lot of computing horsepower. The price to do these things is still prohibitive, but game devs will absolutely try doing those things in the future, so the console hardware will have to keep up.

What I can see them doing is taking a more passive approach, and waiting for the hardware to develop on its own, and just using "off the shelf" parts, instead of paying to have custom hardware developed.

I find it worse when they swear that they didn't do anything at all. The changes just happened spontaneously.

Money in banks is a freezable asset. For an organization like Hezbollah, that would be a major concern.

That may not be just head cannon. The Agatha show is kinda hinting at it.
