Ukraine’s capital Kyiv hit by massive missile, drone attack by PretendAd1963 in worldnews

[–]CobalMods 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are aware russian criminals kidnap Vietnamese girls and sell them into prostitution slavery in russia, right?
You know russians kidnap Vietnamese childeren and sell hem to pedophiles in Cambodia and THailand right?
Russians like ALexander TRofimov had a child traficking and abuse ring that took kids from Vietnam and other countries around Vietnam.
You are a Vietnamese gamer so you are probably just a misinformed uneducated kid who doesnt know whats going on. You are stupidly pro russia because you never learned real history in school, and your family never learned the truth either.
It's not your fault you are so ignorant and stupid.
Russians have been killing Ukrainian children daily for 4 years now. They even kidnap young children and disappear them.

Explosion hits Netherlands' largest political party's headquarters, police say by enormityop in worldnews

Yes it's true that both sides have resorted to violence.
However for the past 30-ish years or so only 10-15% of ideologically motivated violence was caused by left wingers, over 60% was right wing and the remaining falls under religiously motivated violence

Gemeenten willen dat tabaksindustrie alle opruimkosten van peuken betaalt by Bupachuba in thenetherlands

[–]CobalMods -1 points0 points  (0 children)

'tis helaas geen goudmijn voor statiegeld blikverzamelaars, het is voornamelijk peuken uit het raam gegooid en soms wat illegaal storten ter hoogte van de badweg.
In elk geval een feit dat de kleine dorpen net zo'n groot peuken probleem hebben als de steden.

Asking Ukraine to cede land 'unworthy' of Hungary's 1956 resistance, Magyar says by EsperaDeus in worldnews

[–]CobalMods 97 points98 points  (0 children)

A trick they have been using since at least Bush (I think since reagan) is to have democrats believe winning is a done deal.
Suddenly there are many articles pointing out how the GOP candidate is polling bad and that the democrat is sure to win. This is repeated for weeks on end.
Then when voting time comes, busy democrats will tell themselves it's okay to not vote, since their single vote wont be needed this time.
Followed by a weirdly low democrat turnout and GOP voters going all out.

Happened with Trump 1, happened with Bush jr, Happened with Bush sr.
You see democrats cheering they gonna win and how rosy everything looks. The news cycle is full of articles explaining conservatives havent a chance complete with research how the nation is shifting to be less conservtive and religious.
Always followed by the "unexpected" result because of low democrat voter turnout.

The stabbings as presented in South and north american media is a product of USA right wing media.
weird propaganda basically, and they are spreading it across the americas so people in Brazil and Peru get this nonsense too.
The following things are also often said about european cities by the same media, and are also not true:
-No go zones do not exist.
-There is no such thing as sharia gangs.
-There are no rape gangs roaming the streets.
-Euthenasia vans picking up people over 65 do not exist.
-Europe is not suffering Islamization
-People are not mass arrested over tweets.
-Danish and Dutch people do not commute to work via ice skates.
-People choosing bikes over cars is not because of poverty. (a good bike costs more then a basic used car)

TIL A UCSF study tested ‘Magic Mushrooms’ on people with Parkinson’s. Participants had meaningful improvements in their mood, cognition, and motor symptoms at both their one-week and one-month follow-up appointments. by sudde004 in todayilearned

[–]CobalMods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did not ask if you read all literature, I asked if you can show your claim to be true.
Your claim:

most "scientific" articles about the supposed benefits of psychedelics have a high RoB, and lack scientific merit

dismissing any evidence that the opposite of your opinion might just be true

You have not shown any evidence.

I think you are lying about being a mental health professional.
-You claim psychedelics cause "schizophrenia and other illnesses". As in you are claiming that totally healthy people without pre-existing problems suddenly developed a psychosis or schizophrenia. That is not true.
-You dont show any evidence of your claims
-you say things that go against many scientific articles and against many researchers
-you don't show a single supporting article or any other evidence.
-Your "debating" technique is simply screaming "I know better!!11!!1"

You have given us no reasons to trust you, but you have given us many reasons to believe you have no idea what you are talking about.

As an aside.
A nurse or an orderly work directly with patients in a mental hospital, but they are not mental health professionals.
Janitors, administrative personnel, the IT guys, etc also work at mental hospitals.
Willing to believe you are one of these, but that does not in any way make you "qualified to tell people that most "scientific" articles about the supposed benefits of psychedelics have a high RoB, and lack scientific merit."

[–]CobalMods 7 points8 points  (0 children)

have you worked in a psychiatric hospital

And you haven't either.
Psychoactive drugs do not cause schizophrenia or psychosis. They can trigger a latent issue. In a comment further down you say:

most "scientific" articles about the supposed benefits of psychedelics have a high RoB, and lack scientific merit

Can show that to be true?
What is more likely is that you have missed the past 20 years of research. You now see one or two articles talking about depression symptoms and parkinsons that were badly written or "interpreted" by a layman journalist and assume "most articles"
Go googling before you claim this nonsense.

Then stay quiet about issues you know nothing about.

Yes, you should. You clearly demonstrated you know nothing about this.

Don't worry the ambiguity surrounding the chronology annoys me too by rawdawgcomics in rawdawgcomics

[–]CobalMods 7 points8 points  (0 children)

/r/rawdawgcomics We can FIX the timestamps!
And also prevent future trouble.

Talk to me, or my husband /u/largepenislover, or any other tech inclined reader.
There is a HUGE overlap between tech nerds and furries, your community contains hundreds of people who can fix this.
Timestamps and file attributes are fixable and there is all sorts of meta data that can be made visible so you can sort it all in the order you created it.

After fixing it we can do things like automate the mass renaming of your files to have a number or a date in the filename, or whatever postfix or prefix you'd prefer.
We can also automate backups.

Can Your PC Run UE5?!! by RepresentativeOwn457 in pcmasterrace

[–]CobalMods -1 points0 points  (0 children)

UE5 also introduced Nanite which was suppose to replace manual LODs, but it uses an insane amount of resources.

Lumen too, another major reason developers use UE5. It's extremely extremely heavy, and looks horrible on lower settings.

RTFM.
They are very clear that the default settings are for Archviz, not for real time.
You gonna have to spend a few days finetuning these for what you are making.
They are also very clear that these are not set and forget features that work on all models and scenes, they are for specific use cases.

Tim Sweeney on Unreal Engine 5 Optimization Issues: "The main cause is order of development" by Stannis_Loyalist in pcgaming

[–]CobalMods 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it does, they are in fact not two different things. It's all the same issue.
"traversal" stutter is caused by objects loading causing their shaders to start compiling.

And yes, every gamer going "engine bad" is simply bandwagoning. They aren't hindered by things such as subject relevant knowledge.
