One looks like gambling but is actually a fun roguelite card game, the other one looks like fun but is actually a gambling game. Guess which one is rated 18+?

What is an advertisement?

Em dashes without spaces are usually a sign of something else.

edit: I meant genAI, fwiw

I’m not avid listener of them, but this track kinda bops. Also the music video is really funny, I love it when artists put on a cool, funny or creative show

Ah you got me fam, let me donate some more to Biden’s election fund to make up for it

It’s a lighting technique that creates more realistic visuals, especially reflections.

The technique allows the GPU to “track” / calculate how the light should actually travel and what it bounces off of (like light in real life), compared to the pre-calculated methods of before.

So it will cost you processing power and therefore frames, but it greatly increases the visual accuracy of lighting, shadows and reflections.

A simple but effective example is Minecraft with Ray Tracing. The following video showcases the difference:

Notice how the game looks completely different. That’s what lighting can do for a game.

Obviously this is less noticeable when it’s a game with realistic graphics and a lot of time spent on getting the (prebaked) lighting just right.

Do we have a c/beetlejuicing?

You should try that nightly build for troubleshooting purposes

To conserve resources / power? Like when I’m done using an app, I close it. When I’m done reading a website or using online banking, I close it. I don’t leave my email, games or music open after I’m doing using them either. I actually turn off / sleep my entire device when I’m done using it, but that’s not what my curiosity is about.

If it’s related to the thread you posted then try Nightly?

That’s only in Nightly right now, unfortunately; it won’t make it out to Release until v134.

Also, can I ask why you’d leave your browser open for weeks? Just curious of the use case. The thread mentions having 5700-7000 open tabs, and I can’t fathom why someone would do that. It’s not like the websites disappear if you close the tab. Nothing to do with the problem though, you don’t have to answer.

Fair enough

Is releasing multiplats out of the question when a stakeholder has 96%? Otherwise I fail to see what the connection is to my comment

Personally I don’t really care for their games, but I know they have a lot of fans.

Is it good or bad news though? Would they consider multiplatform games, which is better and healthier? Because that ain’t happening for sure now, anymore.

It was already a thing before Musk

again, mature content != freedom to be abusive and toxic

You can get comn banned for telling someone to go fuck themselves yet the characters in the game can swear all they want.

While in-game characters might swear, it’s typically in scripted scenarios that aren’t directed at people, let alone real people. Trash talking teammates is a whole different can of “swearing”.

I’ve been comm banned for telling someone to kill themselves because they said they were gonna rape my daughter and after I reported them for it “this activity doesn’t go against our ToS” was the response.

Telling someone to kill themselves crosses a boundary. I mean, so did their comment, but you should have left it at the report instead of trying to go eye for eye. Usually they troll and bait you into saying things that you can get banned for.

If the game is rated m for mature then mature content should be allowed.

Maturity in ratings refers to the content of the game. A mature label isn’t a green light for abusive behaviour, but a warning about the content.

That being said, I do agree that bans can be misjudged / unfair when put into perspective.

Fuck all of them.

I’d argue that playing an M-rated game with gun violence and fairly absurd depictions of what is, in real life, increasingly pedestrian and legal drug use doesn’t entitle you to tell your teammates to kill themselves.

Exactly.

All hail

That’s quite telling, thanks for sharing.
