Pretty silly to think “Oh that’s the human’s true motive, self-preservation! I got you now, you sly humans!”

Boats put out more CO2 than cars. Water is more dense than air and friction of tires and rolling and etc. Boats are overall worse for the environment both on climate change and environmental damage.

Yup just pointing that out because some folks aren’t seeing that. Not everything is an argument.

Equally can be said about Reddit, Twitter, lemmy, the rest of the fediverse, in fact anytime humans seem to have a large communication network they end up full of lies.

Sure but it doesn’t really reflect the studios switching to Godot. I think they are likely switching to unreal.

I’ve never lived in a city proper. Only suburbs and never been more than 15 minutes away from a store walking. Closer if you count the many corner stores attached to every gas station. Maybe this is coast living vs inner America though.

“most Americans” don’t live in a city that dense and certainly drive to the store for groceries.

Nah, they certainly do.

this is half America’s population and each of those places is centered around major cities in the area.

when I say “to the store” it’s not the same as what Europeans think. It’s not a little corner store where you get your groceries for the day. It’s a giant Walmart/Kroger where you load up for the whole week so you don’t have to go as often.

Sure, that’s what the bulk of Americans do because it’s easier but it’s certainly possible for them to walk to the store. Everyone drives because they are lazy. I’m American, you can’t tell me we are lazy and fat and thus only want to go to the store once a week or less. Also compared to European stores, our stores are huge and purposely confusing. So they can get you to walk around the store more. So your fat lazy ass will get hungry and impulse buy a bunch of stuff. Also, the things at eye level have the most markup which tend to be the most processed foods.

Eh, I feel like the sampling is clearly biased toward those who would install a game engine through a service that auto-updates it. (Novices and hobbyists.)

We are really mimicking Reddit.

Yeah for the majority that live in the cities. Less people live in the country and most of the country towns still have a food mart. So most Americans don’t live that far from a store.

It’s not that it’s easier it’s that it allows the companies to gouge you. If the store said the bottle of coke was 2.15 instead of 1.99 you might realize that it’s not a good price for acidic sugar water and pick something else. Like the free water out of the faucet. This also means public water would be higher quality because people would actually use it and demand cleaner water.

I’m in America and I’ve always lived a 10 to 15 minute walk away from the store. It’s that a long walk compared to Europeans? I think I was further from a store when I was in Germany for a week. Like 30 minute walk.

If you have a wireless Xbox controller it becomes far harder. Xone is what I want to use but then I have xow, xbdrvr and a bunch of other things to deal with. Or if I want to actually use my Nvidia video card to it’s fullest ability, well good luck.

Linux is awesome but has a bit to go for me. Although it’s been that was since it stopped being my daily driver in 2014.

Some mini black holes do not grow into black holes. They collapse. The issue is that they aren’t stable for any decent length of time. Fractions of a nanosecond.

I absolutely agree. I’d want to say those threats are people outside of the industry. People in the industry have received death threats themselves so they understand that it’s real shitty, right? I hope so.

With 3rd places needing to be profitable, it puts a really big stress on them getting throughput. So then that turns them into bars, restaurants, pool halls, or arcades. If they don’t they don’t make money and they can’t keep the space they are renting.

Realistically, very little people know about x windows system even less care about it.
