> The left used to march to stop nuclear war

#NotAllLeftists


Battleship lacks most other elements that make a good war game interesting.


I feel like if there was some way to backport whatever useful things are in windows 11 (and/or windows 8/10/11+ exclusive games somehow detect their expected OS via polyfills) it would be something I might actually pay for.

Or at least someone should upload a no-BS win11 ISO somewhere.


> Never trust a Russian officer

Doesn't seem like a good story to backup this "lesson". What would happen if you showed a US Officer a (possibly missing) US Fighter jet in a hanger? Never trust a US Officer?


> Yes, the "secret capitalists hiding in the woodpile" theory of why communism sucks.

Are you saying the United States is secretly ran by communists, and that there is a conspiracy theory that those secret communists are secretly ran by secret capitalists?


He's saying that. His contention was the projects looks bad because "has always been underfunded to make it look bad."

Ignoring, of course, that there are so many other factors that make those look bad, that would continue to make them look bad even if they were properly funded (whatever that absurd number might be).

I just summarized what he was saying.


> enums flawed

I like Typescript enums generally, my only complaint is that they are kept in the final build as big objects, especially in the scenario where you don't enumerate them. I use a replace function with terser to replace them with inlined constants to make my fine build smaller.


That's what `const enum` is for!


Not if AI steals your job, then your backup job, then everyone's plan C has 1000x more applicants than openings, then rent doubles again, you can't afford art supplies, but you can watch YouTube videos of other people doing art (with ads) and ChatGPT can tell anything you want about art supplies you'll never be able to afford again.


sure, but at this point, people are going to just freaking demolish server farms by hand

I'm not sure how we'll handle the income problem, but once the shoe drops, and drop it will, very soon, I have a feeling that core existential needs will "magically" align with policymaking, such that people will at least be happier than they are today. I mean, this is the big one, the biggest unknown in all this. Not some future skynet nonsense, us humans always trying to keep others down because of our fragile, hilarious little egos. If we can overcome ourselves and make sure that we all get to eat and enjoy proper healthcare (uh, only way is up with that one anyway), people will change their minds right quick.


None of those are usecases, they're just random products that use "crypto" for no discernable reason.


> raycasts getting fired every frame

Also don't need to do this every frame, do X% each tick (not frames literally), rotating which objects get their checks.


I don't think it scales when 99% of us get laid off and we all have the same plan B.
