New disks?

They haven’t made floppies for years now, iirc.

Golden Shower Market more like.

I disagree. You’re pretty on target with that.

The diversity we have as a species is -and always has been- our greatest strength. It means a subset of us can usually do at least “ok” under any given situation.

The same thing is what made some poxy little island able to rule a vast swathe of the planet. The UK took the best of everything it encountered, and added it to it’s own, like the Borg. Of course, like everywhere else that’s run by plutocrats, in an effort to keep us all divided anything “foreign” is currently bad, and to be shunned.

Captive market. Easy prey.

Call it what you want, those with no morals have no boundaries. This is what laws are supposed to prevent, but y’know, the sociopaths have normalised greed and gluttony, and made it the “dream” of a nation.

The Lone Brain Cell State

You owe me a coffee and a new keyboard.

Dispensing Freedom.

Graphics system usually. Back in the day I used to be able to tell where on the screen the cursor was from the pitch of the coil whine.

I buy better hardware nowadays 😂

Other than a significant portion of them getting sucked into bullshit from the likes of Andrew Taint et al.

Can Z fuck the corpos before the corpo algorithms fuck Alpha?

BET NOW!

There’s a quote for everything, almost like we’ve been through exactly this before…

“A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.”

While the wilfully ignorant majority believe everything they see and hear. Which is why it was done in the first place.

“A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.” Etc.

This needs putting on billboards, I’m fed up of bringing this to people’s attention. With a slight wording tweak, it’s applicable to a worldwide audience too.

Anything is dangerous shit with enough of an idiot at the helm.

Drugs are more regulated than guns in the US for fuck’s sake. That there should be enough.

I bet the mental gymnastics routine to justify that is straight tens.

There’s nothing stopping the modder hosting it somewhere that is tolerant or even supportive of their ignorant beliefs.

No-one is making any way be the only option.

Nexusmods isn’t the only place it could be, just to state that again, in simple enough terms it might make a dent.

Once more, just to be sure; Nexusmods has no control over other file hosting services, ergo they cannot “make it their way”. They can only choose what to have on their own site, nowhere else.

Did that penetrate your tin foil hat?

Also:

Modding a game to suit what you wanna play isn’t intolerant.

It is when it’s stated aim is to erase the existence of a specific subset of individuals based on a protected characteristic.

It is, in fact, almost the very fucking definition of intolerance.

You’re either completely ignorant and arguing for the sake of it, or you support, and are arguing for, sowing more of this kind of pointless culture wars shite.

(Which was created by the rich, solely to distract us all from the long overdue class war. Kill the fucking rich, not the other poor bastards in the same boat as you. 👍)

Nexusmods are doing what they believe is the right thing to attain the highest profit, it’s no more complex than that.

The people in charge voted on where the line in the sand should be (to simplify the corporate process somewhat) and homophobia, they decided, should be on the wrong side. They figure that inclusivity, rather than bigotry, is the way to more customers. (I mean, duh.)

They are entitled to do just that, as the modder is to mod the game how he sees fit.

It is not bigotry to be intolerant of the intolerant, that pathetic argument has been dead since before you were born.

You’re describing gmod, if the engine wasn’t… Well, like it is.

*Instead of developers having to use thousands of tricks, filters, shortcuts, and post-processing algorithms very carefully arranged and stacked, ray tracing simulates light waves to arrive at the same end result the same way the world actually works.

Ultimately, ray tracing will mean the vast simplification (and therefore cost reduction) of the way visuals in games are produced. Which I’d wager is why it’s being pushed so hard.

While people will undoubtedly take the piss, for a number of reasons, it’s less energy expenditure / lower footprint than you getting in your car/truck and going to the store and getting them yourself.
