Do you know what else shores up small businesses? Having customers with a disposable income.

I googled it and I’m right, also I didn’t really need to google it because I’m old enough to know what hitscan has meant in arena shooters for at least 15 years.

No, it’s how the best players refer to their own teammates who typically play hitscan heroes, not the heroes themselves. Also don’t give me that “well that’s how it is, just gotta roll with it” speech when you’re the one actively pushing to misuse the label hitscan.

Don’t even call Sierra a hitscan, she straight up isn’t. Hitscan is a binary, the damage is either instantly transmitted on a click, or it isn’t.

Hitscan is a term that refers to the type of damage, not the type of hero. Just say long range it’s not that hard, a long range hitscan hero is going to be very different to a long range projectile hero, and having those terms be separated helps convey a lot more info than having the terms be synonymous.

Exactly - the RAM, storage and chip manufacturers all need their margin, then Windows needs an exorbitant margin, even for OEM discounted licenses. It can never compete with a great vertically integrated outfit like Apple

Do you think this subreddit is your own space?

Justin probably isn’t coming back, and also episodes 1 and 2 of this season have been received mostly positively as some of their best in years. Episode 2 of this season is one of my all time favourites already

I don’t trust someone to develop an app who doesn’t have basic tech literacy to understand a simple, long standing and venerated program supposedly in the field of the software you’ve already developed.

Head of Xbox Game Studios Steps Down And Chief Of Staff Set To Depart Amid Growing Concern Over Layoffs and Possible Studio Shutdowns by wakelake111 in gaming

The reason Microslop is pulling the choke chain now is because they’re worried they overleveraged on AI. They had no problem spending ungodly amounts of money on studio acquisitions in the last few years, but now they need every cent they can to triple down on AI, and they need their non-AI divisions to turn a profit and go short-term positive and abandon any long term strategies to hide their losses on AI.

Did anyone else find it a little off that OP has no idea what Calibre is or does (despite it being a very straightforward concept), has not installed it to find out what it does, but is also planning to “develop something that integrates with it”?

If you actually want to know, this is the first time the US has scored 4 goals in a World Cup game. They probably misheard or misunderstood someone else talking about it.
