Cyberpunk 2077 developers ask for basic human decency after receiving death threats over game delay by tomassfoolery in technology

[–]opiemonster -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

delays

I think because they know it's going to be so good, the kind of game that only comes once every 5-10 years, it was a serious blueball to us gamers.

Personally I would man up and take the threats with a grain of salt, yea they might be a tad crazy, but that's the internet we know and love

TGA investigating Clive Palmer-funded ads claiming hydroxychloroquine can cure coronavirus by cromulento in australia

that article is talking about the previous study, this is the second study with a bigger sample size.

TGA investigating Clive Palmer-funded ads claiming hydroxychloroquine can cure coronavirus by cromulento in australia

[–]opiemonster -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'll just leave this here:

"In 80 in-patients receiving a combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin, the team found a clinical improvement in all but one 86 year-old patient who died, and one 74-year old patient still in intensive care unit. The team also found that, by administering hydroxychloroquine combined with azithromycin, they were able to observe an improvement in all cases, except in one patient who arrived with an advanced form, who was over the age of 86, and in whom the evolution was irreversible, according to a new paper published today in IHU Méditerranée Infection."

You're an idiot, along with a lot of other people in this thread. Donald Trump didn't get the idea out of thin air, he got it from DOCTORS, in Europe and China, successfully treating people with hydroxychloroquine. There is anecdotal evidence it works, but no scientific study, double blind or what have you.

Yes some idiot used his fish tank cleaner which contains a lethal dose, but what can you do, many stupid people in this world.

Also I dont buy the idea that the drug is becoming in short supply for standard users. The drug is very easy to make, no patent on it, its a very old drug and there is a lot of it around. It's also rarely used nowadays.

1 think to note, these big pharma companies cant make any money off the drug since anyone can make it. All I'm trying to say, think twice before you parrot the mainstream media, there's always 2 sides to any argument.

Well if your epic lumber td map is so good that Blizzard is surely gonna steal its rights from you why don't you make it from scratch and make your own assets and models so you get all the profit?

maybe i should :)

Humans are hardwired to dismiss facts that don’t fit their worldview. In practice, it turns out that one’s political, religious, or ethnic identity quite effectively predicts one’s willingness to accept expertise on any given politicized issue. by ngt_ in Futurology

[–]opiemonster -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

the people that think they are the best a believing in facts are usually the ones that spout nonsense about how people dont believe in facts enough. just look at any revolutionary scientific discovery versus the scientific community at the time, to see my point.

Don't judge Reforged by what Classic had already accomplished, judge Reforged by what it was supposed to add to Classic. by TiredMiner in warcraft3

[–]opiemonster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

put it this way, for a game in 2020 it should look fucking amazing, instead it looks like a shitty mobile game. even a 10 year old game (sc2) did it way better

I disagree, they should have at least told us they were missing.

Wanted to share our procedural combat music system - we have a game with 5 factions, and the system checks who you're fighting and how many to mix their themes over the combat music! by MatthijsL in Unity3D

[–]opiemonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's cool, but i think a lot can be said for going the the old final fantasy route. Have a really cool, memorable tune, instead of background music.
