I didn't even realize she did nudes in her patreon until someone mentioned it. He of course totally hates it but periodically checks on it (to see if its still there and shes still doing it) using a website that skips the paywall.

Its not specifically hard but its also not just as easy to use. I say this as someone whos been gaming on linux for over a decade now. You still run into issues here and there with proton(often a devs fault for bad code) and there is genuinely a lot more going on and tweakable on the steamdeck.

Steamdeck is a great device but Nintendo is good at making simple systems

It really was remarkable how hated this device was at the time and I say this as one of the kids online laughing and calling it the taco gauge and ridiculing it for the side talking which lets be real isnt that egregious(and actually in what is likely intentional design the shell around the screen when placed to ear looks a lot like a side profile of an old phone). I do sometimes think back to it and how in hindsight it was just a smartphone that played games.

It was a little too ahead of it's time.

Im shocked there was any truth to this terrible article with that ai generated video nonsense.

There are definitely a lot of little things in gimp that make it hard. The lack of a shapetool is one(yes yes it's not a drawing app but a basic edition helps) and other things like adding text with a black outline or shadow. After literally decades they finally added in a way to make it easier to image macro text in. The old way involved several submenus and I know I couldnt figure it out on my own without a guide.

I know sometimes people come into an opensource ecosystem and complain that everything is worse because they arent used to it, but at the same time there are a lot of open source programs that are very rough around the edges and the developer cant see it because they know the program inside and out so of course it's intuitive that this feature is burried in here and this feature way in there.

Of course some could, but if everyone is impacted then why would they eat the cost? Also they can add a few percentages and blame it on tarrif.

Like how the messaging from covid immediately shifted once the media started using the "i" word.

"We understand the blocked canal, shuttered factories, and overall stagnant supply chain is a problem but we will work together in this crisis"

To

"Sorry inflation. Record profits? No inflation"

I feel like the haters over exaggerate. Like they say that raytracing will never happen and shouldnt. Technology will eventually improve and methods get better. Saying never and getting upset that there is an option to toggle in a game that pushes graphics is wrong. Its silly to think otherwise.

That said I think a lot of the hesitancy and fear comes from the worry that we will be moving forwards too quickly. As it stands the hardware that isnt just adequate with upscaling but good at ray tracing is like $1000-$2000. AMD cards are at a handicap as well. I think the fear is that the industry dives in too fast and abandons the old lighting techniques leaving people with lower end hardware behind or with a low setting that looks way worse than the older methods of lighting.

I think the fear is unfounded though since consoles will always be the primary target and A) They use amd or nvidia's mobile chip and B) they have to have a competitive price. As a result it will be a long while before we go all in on ray tracing.

He jumps with honor

Hes probably like spok. Neutral enough to be the same on both sides. Mirror Voyager has gotta be wild tho

Even in the american mythos of the mayflower it mentions them surviving off established food caches and stores from abandoned settlements. People dont think much about that, but they werent left behind because the natives were so welcoming to the Pilgrims.
