Not sure if same program but didn’t we send alot of money to Ukrane that was seized Russian funds?

DeepSeek showed you can do the same work with less cards so Nvidia is going to sell less cards.

I think buying Eggs is Illegal. (Bad Trans Egg joke)

Agreed, however I don’t get the point? Are we at a point where we accept the devs know better than us on how we enjoy the game?

If I keep getting absolutely crushed I will go play bots to learn the game before returning to PvP. I would rather not have the devs decideling what they think I want or should be playing.

If I sign up for a match expecting to play against players and get matched with bots I would be upset.

Like most games have options like vs bots or vs players. I think it’s a bit ridiculous to not have even that basic control over your game experience. Regardless if you just get crushed.

Yeah, it would be like committing crimes while fooling facial recognition to identify you as a random innocent person instead of just identifying no one.

I guess in the long run it could erode confidence in the system (I know it already misidentifies people regularly) but in the short term, innocents would suffer.

For the people who really value or benifit from the research like masters and Ph.D students the research is is the primary advertising. They are not mutually exclusive. Let the people who care about the team/sports have their thing. For a lot of people it could be their motivation for going there and getting an education.

This design is similar but not the same as OG post. Although still shitty, its quite an improvement over the orgional.

I argue that someone’s first Dark Souls run gives a viewer a great understanding of a person’s true personality and how they deal with difficult problems. Like watching my stubborn friend grind out fighting the titinite deamon by the blacksmith for 3 hours with an unupgraded spear really illistrated how stubborn he can be but also the dedication for self improvement. Your playthrough can also be self reflective. I found that I am quick to search for loopholes or cheese strats on hard bosses rather than put in the reps to learn it properly. I noticed I did the same thing in classes. Not cheating, but more like finding tricks and short cuts to make it work now rather than polishing basic skills and getting a deep understanding of the problem.

Was very eye opening to me and made me realize that how and what someone plays can tell you alot about a person.
