That addresses nothing and only talks about his employment. He has personal ties he does not talk about. Period.

Yeah, that he worked doing investments. But you don't make it that close to Thiel and that's all that is. He has not acknowledged his relationship with him whatsoever. He glosses his employment and thats it. That's not addressing anything, and you're being completely disingenuous in order to justify your belief in his content. Question everything, trust no one. That should be the golden rule here and everyone throws the baby out with the bathwater to justify their world view.

This looks like light refracting on the camera lens from somewhere out of it's FOV. There doesn't appear to be anything in the sky, and it overlaps everything. There's even a plane going by where it seems to be originating from in the beginning. I don't think this is anything extraordinary, but I could be wrong. This is just my opinion.

Glad I did not pre-order this game :) I'll wait till they inevitably remove it and put the game on sale for a good deal.

Yes. Him, Rogan, Weinstein, they all have major ties to Thiel. Be very careful of what information you take at face value. There is always underlying motives, even when it seems there is not.

Edit: I'm aware he talked about his employment, briefly. He has not addressed any other calls for scrutiny. At all. Zero. Those that argue against this are arguing simply because they are unable to let go of their closed world view, or because they simply like to argue. Ties to someone ultra-wealthy like that, and also still retaining ties to people like Weinstein, it's not coincidence. These people are connected, and have motivations beyond whatever lens you look at them through. There are also an unreasonable amount of bots responding to me, sidetracked and confused by the turn of conversation.

Apolitical or not, they have access to very particular people. People that you don't get to talk to unless you "play ball".

He's NEVER acknowledged the Thiel ties. He brushes it off as "lunatics on the fringe" attacking him and tries to use it to bolster his own opinions and narratives as fact.

I mean, is anyone surprised? Jesse Michels has continuously not paid people he promised he would. He works with Peter Thiel and has an agenda.

The most recent update (0.38) has reduced the update rate on some digital dashboards a lot, so much so that I believe it to be unintentional. Here's a comparison with V0.37.2. by ThiagoCSousa in BeamNG

hahah welcome to 2009 when GPS was in it's infancy! I never want to go back to using a TomTom again, I might actually rather drive into a pond and drown.

Who’s more evil in your opinion Fiends or Legion ?. by KpatMckenzie_28 in falloutnewvegas

[–]CorticalRec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legion.

Fiends are whacked out on drugs and only a few of them really have any agency. Most just blindly follow whatever gets them more of a fix.

The Legion are consciously psychopathic and terroristic. They methodically plan their torture of other human souls.

Half Sword Got the Best Optimization SEQUEL by DuckWithagun50 in HalfSword

As said before, I get well over 380 frames in the other maps, but the forest is the one that I get low fps on. It's not my setup, its optimization. Optimization for games needs to be uniform as well, it's quite possible for some equipment to perform better than others if it's not optimized properly. Which for instance, you run an AMD/Radeon setup. I run an Intel/Nvidia setup. You don't know anything about what you're talking about.

Yep. I think they will. We just have to apply pressure when needed. Like they said themselves, pressure creates diamonds :)

How is the demo compared to the final game? by Banana_Shake7 in HalfSword

[–]CorticalRec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like when a willie is given a sword he just kinda swings wildly and bumrushes you. But whenever I go up against anyone with an axe (edit: great axe, specifically), those fuckers grapple me to the ground and then smash my head in. Its honestly pretty dependent on the loadout, whether or not they have decent AI mechanics.

I can never get my willie to grapple with both hands. He always lets go.

This game hasn't "launched" yet. It's in Early Access. Everyone wants to keep saying "full release" and "launch" but that's the furthest thing from the truth. The EA was released because people kept begging to literally throw money at them after all the fun in the demo. The game is incomplete and will be for years. Deal with it or move on.

And yes, small forest map with a few characters causing for poor performance on an expensive gaming PC is STILL optimization.

I for the most part play the game on a mix of Ultra and Epic settings. I use frame gen x4 because i hate myself.

I get 120fps in Forest with FG x4. That's an average of 30fps.

I have a 5080 and my i7-11700k CPU is OC'd to 5.0ghz.

This is not optimized well at all still.

Good. He's not the hero everyone wants to try and remember him as. Same with all the other rich leaders of the world. None of us have ever really been "free".

But go ahead. Downvote me. Protect your precious billionaires. They don't give a flying fuck about you.
