This video on the topic was pretty good for a starting point on learning about it
Unless it’s all wrong, hopefully someone lets me know
- Comment on Nexus Mods to Enforce Digital ID Age Checks Under UK and EU Laws 1 week ago:
No I don’t because I’ve never been as petty to feel the need to download those kind of shit trash mods.
I can only imagine the comments section on the mods that attract that kind of person, I bet it was really wholesome and supportive!
Also I am pretty sure the only reason Nexus banned the mod author (of the flags mod) is because they did it on a throwaway, which suddenly moved the mod into obvious trolling behaviour. If they had published the mod on their main account they would have just removed it without the ban.
Nexus is a private company and they can ban any mod they want to, it’s their decision what they want to allow on there.
I bet if Nexus was doing this in reverse, and was banning mods that added pride flags or w/e, you wouldn’t have a problem with it, you don’t care about freedom, you only care that you are allowed to be a piece of shit person.

The point is as a moral normal human being you should not be getting upset and bitching about a coloured flag. There are so many terrible awful things happening in the world and a rainbow flag sends you into a fury.
There is something wrong with YOU, not LGBT.

I love seeing conservative snowflakes complaining about censorship when it’s literally the most stupid small changes, you make it sound like the game is unplayable because it’s acknowledges/supports minorities in non-impactful ways.
But no mention of the games and mods that let you play out genocide/rape.
It’s the pride flags that are the problem. /s

I was in a rush but here’s a graph of me while flying around the city in a drone, so pretty high impact, I did idle a little but though

When did they do this segment? There was a memory leak issue that caused some crashes and FPS drops on the first day for me, though I’m not sure that is the same problem as console because the game would run fine for about an hour then start to lose FPS until eventually crashing. It was patched the day after, since then I’ve had no issues.
Tbh I’m honestly not really bothered about the Mindseye side, but I’m pretty excited for the Everywhere side, never really cared much for single player shooters, I just hope the bad reviews doesn’t dissuade BARB from following through with enabling Everywhere’s full feature set within Mindseye.

Yeah I looked at what it was like on console and it isn’t great, though it runs pretty perfectly for my pc (4070).
It even runs on the steamdeck (on lowest settings) I played it for 3 hours in bed without any issues.
Though it is no way near in alpha. I feel like alot of people have not played it and are shitting on it just because everyone else is.

I’ve been playing it, I’m around 60% through the story, I wouldn’t say this is the worst game of 2025, not by a long shot, maybe people were just expecting it to be a GTA clone, when it’s more like a single player linear story.
The only issue I have with it is it is all very quick paced, you get a new job and like a day later you’re gunning down hundreds of goons.
After awhile you get access to a ‘build mode’ that allows you to build stuff using provided assets in the world, eg you wanna build a house on top of a skyscraper you can.
The build mode also includes logic nodes for doing gameplay scripting.
All in all I think people enjoy feeling apart of something, and apparently everyone has decided to hate on this game because of “reasons”?

I’ve never really thought about it, but my first instinct is to say it’s referring to the time “it is raining right now” shortened to “it’s raining”?
- Comment on AI cheating surge pushes schools into chaos 1 month ago:
At this point the cat is out of the bag, I’m doing uni currently and have used ai to assist, though I’ve only used the ai to help me understand topics, or asked it to give me practise questions, never given it an assignment question or asked it to gen my answers for me.
As a sort of personal tutor it can be really great. I was thinking about how you can try to encourage students to use it without cheating, and the only thing that came to me was if the education system maintained its own “virtual tutor” ai, one that was specifically designed to prevent cheating and encourage ethical use.
Not sure though, it’s a tough problem to deal with, I guess the other option is just more controlled tests, which no one likes.

I play devil’s advocate in most friend-space conversations, it’s just who I am, I don’t do it disrespectfully (I hope) but it’s just the first thing my brain goes to.
