It was supposed to be good but it ended up being too scripted

Mythbusters is a great thing that we would all love to experience again in another medium, but that just wasn’t going to happen. It’s hard to even point to an existing good game that has the mechanics that you’d want from a Mythbusters. They could have gone Factorio, or an Infinifactory, but a goal of “maximize this” or “build this intended output” still doesn’t capture the scientific intent of extracting some tiny nugget of truth from a cold unfeeling universe. Straitjacketing the whole process into something scripted, or throwing a sandbox at the player and walking away, are about the only two approaches that a game could do.

purple,

The myths all have different physics and some have some weird phenomena so coding a comprehensive physics simulation will all the scripts to trigger the mythical event when certain conditions are right would be expensive.

God please let me move to Europe I don’t even care what language I have to learn I just wanna be able to live without worrying about affording a doctor appointment.

Colour_me_triggered,

If you work in academia, you don’t need to learn a new language. English is the working language. Also the 5 weeks of holiday is nice, but what really helps is the working day.

I started as a bioinformatician a month ago. I come in to the office at 0830 have coffee from 09:00 til 09:45 with my boss and colleagues, work a bit, have lunch from 12:00 untill 13:15, work a bit, go home at 15:30. That’s my day.

I heard someone on Discord claim that the depth of field dropped the performance significantly, and they could run it stable once they disabled it.

SchizoDenji,

Stable at 30fps?

HerrLewakaas,

More than enough for a top down strategy game. Why are you so obsessed with 60 fps in a game where nothing moves fast and reaction times dont matter

jimbo,

Because the higher FPS look nicer and we’re talking about something done for no other reason than for enjoyment.

Oh sick thanks yeah i needed someone to tell me my own experiences.

ILikeBoobies,

Okay, as a quick test

Look at a slideshow, and go to the next slide once per minute

Now go to the next slide every second

You’ve just simulated low and high fps, which one is harder?

good_girl,
@good_girl@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Is this a bit? I’m telling you low fps are hard on my eyes, I don’t need to simulate 1fps vs 1fpm to know that.

Plus there’s a vast difference between 15fps vs 30fps+ and 1fpm vs 1fps.

You don’t have to eat the slop served to you, demand better.

GreenMario,

For me it’s smoother camera panning. I just love that 60+fps feel when you move the game camera. Silky smooth.

SchizoDenji,

Absolutely. If I’m spending my money on a game and running it on an above average hardware, the bare minimum I will expect is to atleast run smoothly regardless of features or quality.

The bar is so fucking low.

My favourite part about online Nazis is how they claim the evilness is blown out of proportion because “not that many Jews died”, but then they simultaneously openly hate Jews.

For anyone bored enough to debate Nazis online, keep your eyes peeled for this trend. It’s a very consistent one.

seitanic,
@seitanic@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Yeah, it’s weird. It’s like “No, we didn’t do that. But we totally would’ve.”

DragonTypeWyvern,

That didn’t happen

And if it did, it wasn’t that bad

And if it was, that’s not a big deal

And if it was, that’s not my fault

And if it was… Actually, fuck it, we have Congress people now, we’ll do it again.

Facebones,

“Nazis arent that bad only a few died

Sure I want to finish the job what’s your point?”

PrivateNoob,

If some nazis are really using this argument then that’s funny. 1 innocent person dying bc of nazi ideology is still injustifiable.

Crikeste,

They’ll also claim to be objective and critical while simultaneously holding some of the most subjective and personal thoughts imaginable.

captainlezbian,

It’s the classic denial. They say the Holocaust didn’t happen but that they wish it had. They know they’re lying, it’s just a way to not be too repulsive for the people that might be willing to join them

seitanic,
@seitanic@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Saying that you would’ve done the Holocaust is really, really repulsive, though.

captainlezbian,

Yeah but that part is quiet. They say that they don’t believe it happened then put their feelers out with some antisemitic statements if it doesn’t get pushback. Their goal seems to be to cross the line a little bit

ruination,

It doesn’t make sense too, like it’s bad enough even if just one died.

alokir,

“It never happened but they deserved it”. It’s a classic rhetoric of people who deny or white wash genocides.

Nakoichi, in precise
@Nakoichi@hexbear.net avatar

Reminder that Hamas rose to power with the backing of Israel as a counterweight to popular secular left wing parties in Palestine. The Hamas that exists now is far from what it was then and is not the anti-Semitic boogieman they created, but rather a larger popular front that has liberalized in some ways to the point that they are conducting the current defense against the Zionist entity as a united front with the left.

This is a thread full of videos and proof of how Hamas actually treats Israeli captives.

In one case their doctors even performed surgery on a wounded Israeli, in other instances they are shown protecting them from gunfire from Israeli soldiers, in others they are seen taking care of children, and in many posing for pictures with the elderly, one specific picture shows and elderly lady with a Palestinian fighters gun in her lap while she smiles and they both wave piece signs.

This fight is not as complicated as western media is trying to make it out to be.

Fuck off. Posting unsourced shock images to try to emotionally manipulate people into supporting a genocidal apartheid state is disgusting.

I have zero patience for Zionists.

SwampYankee,

Those pictures are all over the internet, but here’s the specific article I got them from which I’m sure you’re very interested in. You know the Nazis took pictures of Jews playing in orchestras and doing sports and shit, right?

I’m not a Zionist, but I’m also not a fucking moron. The world shouldn’t be surprised when Israeli children get murdered in their beds, but we also shouldn’t pretend it didn’t happen and Hamas are just joyriding in golf carts with smiling old Jews. You’re quite literally trying to manipulate people into supporting Hamas, a terrorist group that murdered and kidnapped over 1k people two weeks ago, for fuck’s sake. And you accuse me of manipulating people by posting photos of the aftermath? You’re a gaslighting piece of shit. See a therapist.

For the record, Israel disgusts me more every year. Netanyahu needs to be ventilated the same way his supporter did Rabin and I hope the settlements in the West Bank burn to the ground.

@Nakoichi@hexbear.net avatar

I’m not a Zionist, but I’m also not a fucking moron

Actually you’re both.

See a therapist.

Very cool ableism. I disagree with you and think you are a liberal centrist both sides-ing genocide therefore I must have some mental disorder. Fuck ooooofffffffffffffff!

You are also flattening this conflict by claiming that Hamas are the only ones fighting back. This is not “Hamas” this is a popular front of several militant liberation organizations fighting for the existence of their people against a genocidal settler colonial project and you’re painting them all as terrorists under a blanket label that you yourself demonstrably do not understand. You are also being manipulated by imperialist media but you have to be letting yourself believe this shit at this point because it is so incredibly blatant.

By the way those people that the Palestinian fighters are defending include Palestinian Jews that Israel is bombing all the same.

SwampYankee,

Bruh, you’re posting “several militant liberation organizations” propaganda and trying to suggest that “several militant liberation organizations” are hanging out with Jews and playing badminton or something. You clearly do have a mental disorder.

I have zero problem with anything you’ve posted EXCEPT that stupid Twitter thread full of propaganda photos. War is hell and people at war do terrible things. Don’t pretend your side doesn’t, asshole.

Nakoichi,
@Nakoichi@hexbear.net avatar

I don’t care what you have or have not a problem with. You have thus far done apologia for Zionism, misinformation about the Palestinian struggle, and posted unsolicited gore pictures without a source or a content warning all in THIS thread and you call me an asshole? Cool.

Also here’s your cherished innocent settlers and what they have been doing for 70 years that is the cause of all this

SwampYankee,

What misinformation? What apologia? Why are you denying what happened on October 7? Just say you support it.

Nakoichi,
@Nakoichi@hexbear.net avatar

Just say you support it.

I support any means deemed necessary for colonized people to liberate themselves. You’d be crying over dead slaveowners in the 1800s.

Stop arguing with me you’re not going to change my mind you’re just digging your heels in to defend genocide.

SwampYankee,

I’m not trying to change your mind. I agree with you. I just think you’re dumb for buying Hamas propaganda and an asshole for spreading it.

Nakoichi,
@Nakoichi@hexbear.net avatar

And I think you’re a racist piece of shit for trying to paint all Palestinians as “Hamas”

SwampYankee,

Was that in the comment where I said Netanyahu needs to be ventilated?

Nakoichi,
@Nakoichi@hexbear.net avatar

Saying one thing does not negate all the other things you said.

This is like, elementary level comprehension of words and linear time.

RoadArchie,

Nakoichi,
@Nakoichi@hexbear.net avatar

Implying that fascist apologia is something that is indicative of a “mental health problem” is ableist on its own. We can call these assholes out without resorting to these sorts of insults that might harm your comrades and most likely roll right off their intended target.

It also undermines the agency of the one spouting fascist shit and in a way removes their agency and diminishes their participation in doing said fascist rhetoric.

Shyfer,

Not sure if you remember or heard but thousands of civilians were killed by Hamas a few days, including many who would probably march for peace with Palestine, children and old people. Hamas are not the good guys and it’s definitely complicated.

Avnar,

Im waiting for the numbers on how many Israelis where killed by Hamas vs how many where killed by the IDF while beeing held hostage by Hamas.

ShimmeringKoi,
@ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net avatar

This is only outrageous if you don’t consider the lives of thousands more Palestinians as worth as much. Isreal has already far exceeded that number in Gazan families shredded by bombs and crushed by rubble. I wonder why western news doesn’t talk about them?

SwampYankee,

I wonder why two things can’t be outrageous.

IAmHisBiggestSpoon,

It’s atrocious to move a happy, well adjusted family from the country they have lived in for generations into a literal war zone. Then settle land stolen by imperialists, expecting peace and safety. The same peace and safety being actively denied to the colonized families.

Nakoichi,
@Nakoichi@hexbear.net avatar

I’m so fucking sick of these enlightened centrist liberals “muh both sides are bad, why don’t you condemn Hamas!” smuglord

Fuck all the way off and face the fucking wall. Stalin was right.

Nakoichi,
@Nakoichi@hexbear.net avatar

Did you not read that reply at all?

The Israeli plight is constantly talked about and the Palestinians are constantly demonized. How about you step back for a second and examine why you are so upset NOW at THIS incident, when far worse has been done to Palestinians for over 70 years.

“Why aren’t you adding your voice to the orchestra of pro-Zionist voices and instead trying to give voice to their victims who are largely ignored by western media until they finally get fed up with being ignored and decide to actually fight their oppressors?”

Please, I say this in the kindest way you deserve: Go fuck yourself with a spoon.

AceFuzzLord, in You have more fun with the FPS counter off

As someone with a lower end spec desktop, I personally think that running emulated games or just normal PC titles at a much lower speed isn’t an issue. Especially since I don’t play FPS games.

I’m one of those people who’d be fine running a game at fluctuating 30FPS just so long as I can play it. It’s how my desktop handled mc before I boycotted it for minetest and how it handles minetest when I’m not on a super flat void world due to mod strain.
