@CapitalB @ryanleesipes claws! :P
@mangeurdenuage sorry to hear about your animals ![]()
I was wrong about rey-tracing. And about graphics in general
TLDR: We need to go back
When in 2007 Assassins creed introduced Eagle vision, I was kinda confused. Why exactly was it needed? But it served to solve an important problem. Games had reached a point, where you could no longer recognize, what part of environment was an interactable part of the game, and what parts were only a distraction.
Back then, this problem was only with the fact, that one human looks like another one, but lately, I found, that I cannot even recognize, what is a human, and what is just a reflection/environment noise. And reytracing will make this problem 10 times worse.
I am just so tired of games with modern shading and environmental detail, where interactable items on the shelf all have to have an outline, because there is no way in hell you would recognize them otherwise.
We are no longer interacting with the games. We are interacting with the overlay that is placed over the fucking game. This realization downed on me, when I was playing new Robocop demo, and when I wanted to make a joke about how many black people there are, I realized, that the overlay was so insane, I could no longer even recognize what kind of thug I'm actually shooting.
I want a game, where I can see the game. Not one, where the UI is the only thing my brain sees. That is, why I hope games like the new Zelda series are going to suceed. While the tradeoff is, that the ammount of random uninteractable elements on screen must be reduced significantly, the reward is.... You can actually see the game. And that should be the main focus in the future IMO. To reduse the screen noise back to reasonable level. And random reflections as well as insane shadows will do the oposite.
@begsby <<< is likely bitshift to the left
@begsby the circled and boxed things are likely to be XOR or something similar bitwise. depends on the context :)

On Suicide. A Twitter bro who was also good friends with mutuals killed himself. He left a child behind and also his girlfriend. His death was financial related. He killed himself over feeling like a failure over money.
A month ago he opened up. He was facing bankruptcy and financial ruin. I sent him vibes. Many others did. He still took his own life. Why?
I saw many friends go through the financial crisis of 08-09 and expected at least one to kill himself but none did. I talked some off a ledge. I’ll do this for others now.
- BANKRUPTCY IS NOT A BIG DEAL.
I had to help so many men understand this. It’s true. Bankruptcy isn’t what you imagine it to be.
It’s embarrassing. You feel like a loser, but you move on.
Two of my friends are multi-millionaires post-bankruptcy.
Society stigmatizes what is a pretty simple legal process.
MEN TIE THEIR SELF WORTH TO SUCCESS and MONEY.
Partially this is due to being a provider. Men who can’t pay the bills feel like scum. This is a weight men carry. Women carry a different weight which men will never understand. Women won’t ever understand how worthless a man who is broke feels.
If you’re a man struggling now…
Your children do not care if you are broke. I grew up poor. My dad was a kind person. It sucked not having money but it would have been worse to not have my dad.
As the economy falters, male suicide is going to SPIKE.
You will regret it if you harm yourself.
I have died before. Whatever problems you think you have fade away as you long for those you love. You don’t care about any of the stupid bullshit that you think matters.
Bankruptcy doesn’t matter. Love and your family do, and taking your life will only create new cycles of trauma in them, as people blame themselves and ask. “Why didn’t I do more?” “How did I not see the signs?”
You don’t want to lay that at anyone’s feet, especially over money.
You will get through it. I’ve seen it. I’ve lived it. TRUST ME.
The only way out is through.
@DCR nee, ich denk bei allem es ist fake :P
@ortlebepaula @anneroth und was tut das zur sache?

> 29% wollen Politiker*innen und 19% Wissenschaftler*innen bestrafen, 6% die gesellschaftliche Ordnung zerstören
oh nein, die verantwortlichen sollen verantwortung tragen.
ausserdem: da steht "das politische system zerschlagen" nicht "die gesellschaftliche ordnung zerstören".

don't only rely on my words, read what happy customers wrote about me: "10/10 would buy again", "top seller, great value", "wildly incorrect", "teil des problems", "without imagination", "Repeated provocation using copy/paste.", "if you take a dump in my mentions, I just might notice the smell", "log out and never login again", "Du redest wirr.", "My brother in Christ, this is such a ridiculously dumb statement that I will no longer entertain this silly conversation.", "Auf Derailing-Diskussionen habe ich keine Lust. Finger über dem Blocken-Knopf.", "Wie gesagt, du kannst der Diskussion inhaltlich nicht folgen."
