I played HL2 in VR and the original (but upscaled) textures still looked good.
It would be great to play the RTX version in VR as well because it adds so much to the atmosphere. Baked in lighting is only good up to a point.

Bold of you to assume they even went to business school.
All the big wigs I've met were "self-made millionaires" -meaning assholes that used, manipulated and fucked over enough people to reach their current positions.
Also, tax evasion.
It's infuriatingly stupid. It makes me read the same sentence 2-3 times before I understand what they're trying to say.
We have a well established and clear distinction between 'streaming service' and 'streamer', why fuck with it?
What's more, it's double stupid because now both 'streamer' and 'streaming service' means "a company" AND we don't have a word for individuals streaming on the web.
*gestures vaguely at everything*
The good news is that we are on the verge of building something that we own on Lemmy, where corporations won’t be able to fuck with us as much.
Yeah, about that...
Let's see what happens when Meta decides to federate Threads with the rest of us.
I really hope you're right because I love this place right now. It's much smaller than other platforms but there's enough content for hours of browsing and the community is leagues above the rest of the internet in terms of quality of discourse.
Outside of the fedi, I don't remember the last time I saw opposing views coexist in the same thread without one being brigaded.
It's really messed up how the world can be reduced to binary opinions.
By definition, liberals think more freely and are willing to entertain new ideas. With that of course comes that some of those ideas turn out to be counter productive or straight up bad. Ideally, this is when real liberals acknowledge this and shift to something else.
Conservatives on the other hand see this as a sign of weakness and misguidedness, so they take a stance rooted in what they "know" to be true. When that knowledge turns out to be false, they can't simply pivot because that would make them the same as liberals.
Not to mention, sticking to your guns is so much easier than admitting you were wrong and starting from zero again.
The sad part is, no matter how bad things will get, the same people will keep denying climate change. Even as their shoes melt into the pavement.
Looking at the past, I don't have any hope for meaningful change.
Just last year or so we've had people on their literal death beads denying corona is real.
What is this magic? And why the hell isn't direct file sharing built into every device?!
Interesting, I've never seen that. The opposite happens quite often, though; the question is the same as mine and there's 5 other people in the comments also not finding an answer.
Maybe I'm just Googling for too many obscure missing .dll files and such.
Am I reading this right? The media company tried to reach the company without media office and expected a different outcome? XD

Pretty much this.
I was asked to help mod a new community, and things were going pretty well for a year or so, but then the sub owner and the other mods gradually disappeared until it was just me and another guy left.
Well, turns out they were moderating/owning 30+ subs on average. We both quit that day.
I just can't understand what kind of ego boost they get out of being useless cunts in 30 places. How can such little power be so tantalizing to some people?
