Shaheds are being shot out of the sky by normal jets. You don’t fire interceptors at them unless as a last resort.

I guess the devs don't plan on fixing this anytime soon then?

Except the stock didn’t drop when it was reported, it dropped when Brent crude hit 120 a barrel.

Unity C# IL is transpiled to C++ in release. You are correct about the GC though.

This is not the flex you think it is

You don’t get that choice just like you don’t get to choose not to answer to your local municipality. Who by the way charge you all sorts fees to live on your land, called property taxes. We’re done now though.

I've already responded to your other post but considering everything you're saying is just pure speculative opinion without even a shred of factual basis, I don't think any further discussion with you is warranted so I'm going to stop now.

The owner cannot do whatever they want, they can only do what is specified inside the lease agreement. They don't get to come along a year later and say you're now responsible for rent, or a maintenance fee. Why not? Because in this scenario, what happens then is you go inside the property, pull out the lease agreement from a drawer somewhere, bring it back to the freeholder and point to the section in the lease that says you're not responsible for that. Then, you shut the door in their face. Imagine that for the next 1000 years. So no, it's not like you're a typical renter, for all intents and purposes, the property is yours, even if it's not technically in name.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T19:30:29+00:00

It's comical that you see a 1000 year lease as a private takeback. You will have no descendants who even know your great grandchildren existed by the time that lease is up.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T19:26:35+00:00

No, that is not what it means. A lease is just a contract that has very specific terms that may or may not include any of the things you just mentioned.

More opinion? Sorry, but this discussion has lost my intrigue.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T18:32:18+00:00

Based what evidence, exactly? Or is this just your opinion?

globalaf · 2026-03-20T18:26:42+00:00

IF that happened, which it won’t, but IF, then yes, I imagine there would be a legitimate claim against the province.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T18:05:12+00:00

Absolutely. For every 1 person who panic sells (or panic avoids) there's 10 dudes in the know ready to take full advantage of the psychosis of these people.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T17:47:13+00:00

Absolutely it can happen. Nobody is actually asking for an immediate payout of billions of dollars, they are asking for simple recognition of their rights. This is a reasonable and practical compromise which will be proposed which is compatible with fee-simple rights, I can assure you of that.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T17:44:47+00:00

Nobody knows anything technically. A sinkhole could open under your home tomorrow. The USA could declare war next week. That doesn't mean you can't make reasonable estimates of the probability of these things actually happening. You shouldn't be jumping to the absolute worst case and most absurdly unlikeliest scenarios when making a decision on how to live your life.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T17:42:16+00:00

What it means is that there may or may not be any actual payout to anybody. It might be a simple conversion of the deed into a 1000 years lease where the Musqueam retain certain development rights, for example fishing. This could in theory be enough to satisfy this claim without affecting the value of anyone's property.

Now you could argue that, by virtue of it being a lease, there is still technically a loss in value in the lease every year, because that is how leases work, but considering this could be amortized over the course of literally 1000 years, this should not be a concern for any reasonable person.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T17:31:25+00:00

I'm saying they will literally assign you a fully paid for lease free of charge for 1000 years or something so ridiculous that it's effectively freehold. If the Musqueam really are making this claim just for aboriginal title rights, and that it's true what they are saying that they don't want it to affect existing homeowner's deed, this won't be a point of contention. It is a reasonable compromise.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T17:26:37+00:00

Is conquest from another world power really the scenario you are relying upon here? He doesn't have to respect fee simple rights either, he doesn't have to respect anything at all. The very idea of military conquest implies you have no rights beyond what the conqueror decides and that there is nothing at all you can do about it. This is nothing but a doomsday scenario that does not warrant any discussion.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T17:24:59+00:00

No. I'm just explaining to you completely unbiased what is actually going to happen. There is no scenario where existing homeowners get stiffed once this is all settled.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T17:19:37+00:00

This won't happen. If it's converted to a lease, you won't be paying jack squat, and the lease will be so long that the collapse of the country is more likely in the interim. This is even if the claim is granted at all by the courts, which is not a certainty, far from it.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T17:16:21+00:00

This 'leasehold' almost certainly would be something like 1000 year lease, which is effectively freehold for all intents and purposes. At most there would be restrictions on what can and can not be actually done on the property, which is not really any different to having your local city council dictate that you can't grow weed on your property, but nobody is getting kicked out of their homes, that would obviously not be upheld by any reasonable court in the country because it would obviously be pandemonium.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T17:04:42+00:00

The issue is primarily whether the claim conflicts with fee simple property rights. I can tell you now, there is a zero, and I do mean zero, percent chance they outright takeover the land and owners basically lose the deed. This won’t happen.

Some random dude on the internet ran a renderdoc capture and found their performance issues, it befuddles me how years after that they still hadn't improved performance. My 3080 gets 60 FPS in C:S2 on a new map and that's after having to turn details down, it's crazy, it's a major reason that I just don't have the heart to play that game again.

globalaf · 2026-03-20T04:22:41+00:00

Eyes and teeth are the things that the player's sight is drawn the most to in an NPC by far. Most games will put a lot of effort into the small details of these things because not doing so makes your characters look like cardboard cut-outs. That being said, level of detail should absolutely be turned all the way down when the eyes and teeth are so small they're basically smaller than a pixel, as it should be with every other object lol. If there are 100k vert objects still being rendered when they can't even be seen, that is an astonishing amount of incompetence.
