  Nuh-uh it’s magnetohydro which means it’s magnet juice not water trust me bro. Iirc it’s charged hydrogen plasma though.

  Iirc magnetohydrodynamic or MHD generators were a possible way to not boil water

  The most annoying thing was when they added Fortnite and I had to basically triple my account security when I didn’t even play games on their launcher. Anyway I’ve basically given up on UE4/5 now. Not that I really make games anymore but Godot is refreshingly lightweight.

  Yeah I don’t understand why they moved away from recipe cards and single page things you can just look at.

  I’ve capped out 32 and still do fairly regularly. But I used to do a bunch of 3D and rendering. Now I do photo editing and just have other stuff open. 64 would help a bit for me but I can live.

  Imagine, you’re busy dying in the sands of karak (I think) and then Firefox makes you die instead of it being your own inability to chain 20 dashes

  It was pretty hostile but there was a lot of democratic process and the key thing was the ratcheting up over a good 10 years before they really went for power. They would take small pieces of power and grow their control incrementally until they had too much momentum for any other group to deal with them. Also some groups thought they could use them to their advantage and reign them in when things were sorted. They were getting the highest votes but it was a mixture of a lot of things and they pretty quickly stopped being democratic votes after the first few elections. Lots of propaganda, a large amount of coercion at least initially, some blindness and unforeseen consequences but a decent portion of the population supported the whole thing. At least that’s my understanding.

  Yeah hunt is great, love the atmosphere, the tools, the learning curve and the stupid interactions. Hunt loss is pretty minor though, takes maybe a few alright rounds to get the fun perks and then you can just buy whatever gear.

  I’m pretty sure there’s nothing you can buy that has any effect on gameplay so idk where you got P2W from.

  There are a lot of ways to shoot for the moon that don’t end with anything close to an orbit. Though it’s pretty hard to get out of orbiting the sun from here…

  Tbh with FFXIV you only have to buy the 2? Most recent expacs and you can play free up to 70/100 and the accompanying story stuff without. It doesn’t do the limited time free trial anymore.

  It’s because the regulatory bodies are captured by the interests of the fossil fuel companies

  Enough wind redirection could affect weather patterns. But we won’t run out of wind, spoiler but wind power is just indirect solar power.

  My complaint about borderlands 3 was the cringe main antagonists. Like I’m happily shooting stuff and they hop in with painfully mediocre snippets of whatever they’re supposed to be doing. Also they killed off one of the best characters. The gunplay felt nice, the music and graphics were good. I didn’t have any real technical issues.

  Here in the UK you can get some home-bake pastry tubes that look identical to that and you also twist open them. Things like a roll of proto-pan au chocolat or the big raw cinnamon roll. You just slice them up and cook

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  3070 is enough for most stuff at 4k 60 medium. Not all the newer stuff though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  4k 25" was worth it for me but I only spent about £140 on it so YMMV it’s nice but not essential and after 1080p the extra pixels only add so much

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  4k is nice but at 1440p the diminishing returns are pretty obvious doubt 8k is somehow going to change that
