we will spend trillions of tax payer money on "natural alternatives" that just will not work outside of a few locations (and we know they won't) for a nationwide population

Yeah...how could anyone mistake discussion of how politicians should spend taxpayer money as a discussion of politics? It's ridiculous!

Side note: it seems the UK government spends tens of billions on fossil fuel subsidies.

You state that they're spending trillions on solar panels, where's the source on that? All I can find is some small program to buy solar panels for homeowners.

Finally spent 15 mins setting up Sunshine and Moonlight for AV1 streaming from PC to Steam Deck
Moonlight is *** goated.

Theres an issue with ultra wide monitors though, as most people will likely be streaming to a screen that outputs 16:9 resolution, and the 21:9 will look very awkward. Theres a tool you can use to auto-adjust your resolution when you remote in. However, it hasnt worked as expected for me. I have to remote in, re-load the program, then moonlight in a second time for it to kick in (I might need updates)

I've just been manually changing game res to a 16:9 one and it has been working alright but this might be easier

Thinking about also just getting one of these and streaming to a virtual display to avoid having to change resolution on the main one

No, I know he's an angry shitposter who has catastrophically shitty takes on almost everything in society, but it feels like every time he spouts *** and everyone ignores him he's taking a victory lap, so I like to try to point out how wrong he is whenever he provides the opportunity (which is frequent)

Good morning you who enter AMAN trove and just go straight to the Terminal Coffer. Good morning you who open chests till the first Loud Thud. And good morning you who just give up at the last chest because risks are made to be ignored.

Oh, look, a rainbow chests just poped!

Speaking of hatred in the society, here are some fun reads. sometime ago I learned a theory called Mathew Effect.

https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_effect

Basically, it is a theory that an entity who has large amount of resources will accumulate even more resources over time. Which is the main cause of inequality in the society, as rich(resourceful) people gets even more rich(resourceful) and vice versa.

For example, in my country a lot of CEO in certain corporation are ex-government officials because they can "open doors" to the government for more business opportunity. And to a business an individual that can open doors to more business opportunity are way more valuable that average skilled worker exchanging their (mostly replaceable) skills for money.

So if one person has a lot of valuable connection (resources), they can quickly climb up in social hierarchy than those who doesn't have anything.

This is also why some researchers found that similar level of inequality exists in every social system and regions across all of human history. Even if all the resources are equally divided to everyone on the planet, after a few decades resources will go to small amount of people again.

I frequently read about mega Corp/capitalism hate on the internet. I think they are hating the wrong thing. It is never capitalism nor mega Corp that caused inequality. It is Mathew Effect causing it.

Now remember guys, DEI is very good and very important, so you need to pay us $7 million dollars to make your game ***and if you don't we will get every media outlet to slander you until your company is ruined, so pay the money. We support DEI so we are the good guys.

I believe theres another word for this. Extortion? Racketeering?

Yup, must be fake, because they're the good guys, they would never make up lies about companies that refuse their consultation.

https://x.com/GamesNosh/status/1764802262017183761

Oh wait, its right out of their playbook, as spoken from the CEO Kim Belair.
"If you're creative working in AAA, which I did for many many years, um, put this stuff to your higher-ups, and if they don't see the value in what you're asking for when you ask for consultants, when you ask for research, go have a coffee with your marketing team and just terrify them with the possibility of whats gonna happen if they don't give you what they want"

Yep, that looks fake as hell too. That's the great thing about Twitter, one random dude can just post whatever they want, put whatever made up spin on something they want, and call it real. Even if its not.

There we go.
So I guess the official video posted on the GDC youtube channel is fake too. Just skip to the 25 minute mark for the very fake AI edited clip that is hosted on the GDC channel.

There are chat filters for opponent's actions including spells. This would exclude the entire line though. Should be very, very, very easy to test.

If it's an addon, I have no idea what you *** up

The original post came from weibo, which is pretty much home base of extreme anti-woke and racism and Chinese victim complex to begin with.

I wouldn't trust any post from it unless there is a strong evidence to support the claim.

Also saying the weibo post has high chance of being fake is not the same thing as denying the existence of DEI's effect. Any anti-woke post has a high chance to gain traffic atm, it is entirely possible that people randomly post fake ***for traffic just to put fuel in the fire.

I wear my tin foil hat with pride and chuckle when they end up being untrue.

But *** drop dead laughing when they have merit.

back to important matters....

I asked for 2 bagels with cream cheese but they messed up and got me 2 bacon egg and cheese instead. they charged me for cream cheese which was cheaper so this was a win.

I gave the other sandwich to this new kid at the job and he looked at me like I solved the murder of his father.

Trying Queso ruffles today. They're OK.

Down to 964 JP remaining for Oboro grind to augment Ragnarok. I can get like 370 more JP this week, so next week, theoretically.

47k more Galli to go 5/5 on WAR Empyrean armor.

Still wondering where J-Hesi is.

Can't really tell if Gyudon is out doing ATK food on Ghost Locus Crabs for me. Leading me to wonder if food is doing anything for me at all. Paranoia has me opting back into Rabbit Pie cause you can't go wrong with hybrid foods, right?

Gonna hit ML32 on WAR by the time Oboro grind is finished, so that's the area-ish that a REMA 10k JP gets ya to, grind wise, it seems. I need to make friends some how and do Peach Power. This grind is unreal!
