AMD's your friend now, but they're only undercutting NVIDIA like this to get on top of the market. Once they've done that, it will be NVIDIA doing the undercutting, and AMD will be the one clamping down and exploiting their position.

It has happened time and time again.

Don't simp for corporations. They'll never return the favour.

Because reality uses Raytracing instead of Screen-space reflections!

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

They're so effective that they're even able to kill children a century into the future.

Its satire. He doesn't advocate for anything near a proletarian ruled society, just the bare fucking minimum amount of welfare that is also provided by other 'developed' countries.

Ever hear the term 'Bernie killed rosa luxembourg'?

Its because he's a social democrat and not a socialist, and when push came to shove, it was the social democrats who betrayed the workers revolution in germany, and who killed or ousted our comrades accross europe.

The reason for this satirisation in particular is likely down to a joke about how the media tends to view him.

Starbucks has been known to shut down entire stores if they got even a whiff of a unionization attempt.

That intro would just about equally apply to the civillians affected by those same US troops.

Except they didn't volunteer for it.

I don't know why this wholesome post is being downvoted. Perhaps a few libs showed up.

Yeah, Afaik, its more of a blocklist rather than an allowlist system. So not really an iron curtain like western media portrays the great firewall to be like.

Probably because they process the emote by resolution and not a specific size. Im using the connect app on this instance and I get the same thing.

I have been using Linux since the windows 8 days, and still see no reason to return.

If you bought CSGO, you automatically got access to prime mode when the game went free to play.

It's a separate matchmaking pool that puts you in servers filled with only other people who also bought the game, substantially reducing the likelihood of encountering cheaters and bots who just make endless free accounts.

This also carries over into CS2 as far as I'm aware.

No. You don't preorder it.

The only reason why preordering was a thing to begin with was to secure last minute funding for small devs to buy the infrastructure they would need to support their game after release.

Starfield is not made by a small dev studio. They have billions of dollars behind them and preordering will not impact the course of its release, nor will preordering 'reward the developers', as they are paid in fixed wages and have no financial stake in its success beyond maybe a tiny token bonus. (This is also why we consider Piracy justifiable for non-indie games. )

There will be no material benefit for you to preorder vs buying once the game is released and public opinions on its state become available.

P.S, you're on Lemmygrad. You're not going to get a different answer.
