Need to figure out which BA flights feature this service...

I was watching for that one when he announced it in his previous video. That one delivers. But you should also absolutely see the previous one about various views (including "achievement unlocked", lol):

Apparently the tutorial about how you can "reuse troops" doesn't refer to the fact that they don't die... but that you can use copies of non-named troops. Unlike all the previous tables.

And almost all of them are not MMO, not because they have X or Y players, but because of what I explained before. Bartle may have wanted to use a different type of naming, but in the end, it all boils down to a qualitative difference, not a business/size one. In a MMO, I can end up in, say...

At the moment, it's a pure no-frills, test one thing at a time series of models. But let's be honest. The end result will BE a Buck Rogers rocket. One that works.

Yes. Which is why I sometimes drop on Patreon for a couple months, to provide the equivalent of a book's worth, then I unsub until I feel like I got a good book of content. That's why I was subscribed for september and october, and stopped after (so I no longer have any spoiler on you guys -...

The face Dawn makes when she realizes "this is the one my boss wants to use to save this world?" That would probably be enough to make you quit your Phoenix cult... I think the main problem is that Shirtaloon needs to keep the machine going, which means he either has big flashes of...

Even Rudy wants some.

It's still a bit saturating in term of camera on the droneship, but almost all the recent landings were seen live without a cut due to lost transmission when the ship moves too much and the satellite alignment is lost (or whatever).

Of course it is. The whole point is almost certain summed by those eternal three letters: A-R-T.

I'm going to try to give you a simple definition in qualitative terms rather than quantitative ones: - A multiplayer game is a game that multiple people are in the same game alongside YOU - A massively multiplayer game is a game where you find people not playing in YOUR game alongside you That...

Shit, too late.

Both delegations are, well, parodies of standard outsider cliches on those two nations. I'm not too surprised he choose to go over the top for those two. I was more surprised he didn't push too many cliches when he did the French-based Network branch depiction.

And this is important because...? Do you really think, one second, that people who are impacted by those decisions will suddenly, out of nothing, stop, smell the roses, "enjoy" reading lore, and stuff? The answer is "no". The people most impacted by those are not going to enjoy that, for one...

And this is important... because?

Oh, and the "You Will Play Exactly As We Say You Will, And Not One Currency More!" is getting ridiculous: https://www.wowhead.com/news=319346/venari-rep-and-stygia-may-be-locked-until-first-weekly-reset-in-shadowlands Yes, boys. This time, they are locking A REPUTATION behind reset mechanics.

And you're really thinking he's going to stay stuck in there? Notably when our avowed goal is defeat his upper-case-J ailer...?

Ah, ah, ah! New grindable in 3... 2... 1...

And apparently, to be sure no hardcore gamer can gain "undue benefits", it's capped to 3 levels the first week. Because YOU WILL PLAY ACCORDING TO OUR CURATED METRICS, OR ELSE.

Basically, GEForce uses a specialized client for whatever store, with pre-installed games for the virtualized machine. So you open the GeForce Now, click on the desktop for Steam/GOG/Epic/Origin/etc, and launch the game from your normal library there. All it requires is that the store is...

Halflings without hairy feet? HERESY!

The big problem is that, at the time, the exploits and bugs were not well known or popular and some of them took a long time before they became problems. Today, they're documented, and the population is ready to exploit them on day one.

For a slightly similar take on the theme, you should have a look at "Risen Empire", from Scott Westerfeld (either The Risen Empire + The Killing of Worlds or the confusingly titled The Risen Empire omnibus edition that combines both books). You have the Undead Emperor and his Risen elites...

Agreed. Since the sub is shared, they are using Classic and Modern as a way to reinforce each other, not as separate products aimed at different people (which it probably is).

Worse. If you watch the SpaceX streams whenever they do those missions, it's no longer the SpaceX stream. It's down to 720p because NASA cannot stream higher than 720p. It's whatever NASA has, even for the pure SpaceX parts (like the launch itself). I'm pretty sure this is a contractual...

The incremental design of SNx reminds me of the scenes in The Right Stuff where they repeatedly push the button, with a fade to a rocket blowing up.

Also, forgot about the "America exports a lot of gun essences" remark on He Who Fights With Monsters. Because of course it would :)

Rofl at the movie reference. But apart from that, funding for that old and slightly misplaced radio-telescope was always iffy, so there is indeed a real risk that funding is cut and a new, more modern radio-telescope built somewhere else instead.

Which pretty much means you run it for your main, not your alts (unless you're a massive poopsocker or a multibo... oh sorry, multiboxing is now forbidden).

Well, at least they are starting to try to apologize for the mass DMCA wave. (by suggesting "check if there is somewhere in your game conditions a mention of streaming music. There must be one, right? Right?")

Balance the numbers (since the numbers are now all fake, since everything is scaled), and open up a shared server in which you can be playing EQ OR World of Warcraft characters. In the same place.

Well, it's not entirely in french. You see, the service "izi" is pronounced "easy" (with a french accent), because it's supposed to simplify your electricity installations.

Stadia is the shittiest streaming version possible, right? You need to purchase games. There's probably a few free ones included, but I did not check further upon discovering that the pro subscription gives you 2 free games of Google's choice per month. And that's it. You pick stadia, you spend...

For a long time, we had very simple models of history based on a handful of documents and archeological excavations. Then basic genetics. The original model of mankind's history was a basic narrative: 50k years ago, a handful of upright apes started to colonize all of Earth, and here we are...

That's mostly cultural/technogical advantage, yes. Farmers were already sedentary all over Europe by then. The era of the nomadic hunter-gatherer was ending 15k years ago. But primitive cities only started as soon as farmers had enough tools and practice (correctly interpreting climate, etc) to...

Voice is far too slow in terms of bandwidth compared to keyboard/mouse/controller.

Yea, it's 2020. What could possibly go wrong this year...

Bacterial resistance isn't a world-ending threat. Just like COVID. If we did exactly nothing regarding COVID, we'd quickly settle to a "new normal" where a tiny additional percentage of our population dies every year. Up until the 20th century, we had zero antibiotics, and civilization...

There's a good argument for fossil fuels end. The use of cheap, easily mined, plentiful fossil fuels propelled our economy to today's heights, and it is allowing us to transition slowly to the much harder, probably more durable, post-fossil use (if we're not prevented, for political reasons to...

It's also trivial to bypass. Just mail all of your currency to an alt safely tucked away, and you're headed to your warmode with coppers on you.
