Joe Camel begs to differ

YouTube Kids has no ads at all because of this.

Google isn’t doing this because they’re being nice.

That was Halo. If you used a rocket launcher or sniper, switching from the scope to the energy sword allowed you to lunge to the enemy you could see through your scope.

Except reusing the same model/texture can be very good for performance. It doesn’t matter if there’s 1 instance or 1000 of a model in the game, it takes up the same amount of memory. Even transforming it/scaling it barely changes that.

What does that even mean?

Now I can ask copilot how best to insult someone’s mom?

He was always stood, yes. But he’s way slower on the uptake and even more likely to go of on tangents than he used to be. So, yes, there actually has been a very noticable decline. Plus the slurring…

Ok… Most of those are probably American made games. And even if it’s 3 devs, that’s not enough to keep most studios open, even tiny ones.

The point was it’s not a lot.

Enough for one dev for a year …such success.

That font is going to get them sued by WotC

Yes. It’s inside my house where no one else can get to it.

There are people that buy awful games just to 100% them and get the achievements. They actively search out things which give easy achievements. Not because the game might be fun, just to see number go up.

Not everything is addictive in the same way to everyone. So I don’t really care what you “buy”, it’s a behavior that exists in the real world.

Most people do not look up all the achievements before they play. So, to them, it appears random, as they just pop up spontaneously as they play. And they usually start of with a bunch and get further apart as time goes on and the harder achievements take longer, so the time varies in much the same way as all those mobile games that have some sort of action economy

Variably timed “rewards” which trick your brain into performing repetitive tasks for longer than you normally would? Achievements definitely count.

They were never relevant. It’s a Skinner box mechanic that really triggers certain people’s dopamine production in an addictive manner.

Maybe they should go away, then

Unexpectedly??

Ice didn’t even exist 30 years ago…

Nope. Less than half voted for Trump. He didn’t even have a majority of people who cast a vote for president. And a third of the country isn’t eligible to vote due to age.

So just under 20% of Americans voted for him.

What are Republicans not freaking out over? They seem to be a very over-reactionary people.

ICE isn’t just stopping in the lobby. The lobby is the place where you price you have a legitimate reason to enter the actual hospital.

And it seems you have not been to a school in a couple of decades. That shit has been locked down since the early 00s. If you f don’t have a kid in there, or were invited for some reason, they’re not letting you in.
