Of course some could, but if everyone is impacted then why would they eat the cost? Also they can add a few percentages and blame it on tarrif.
Like how the messaging from covid immediately shifted once the media started using the "i" word.
"We understand the blocked canal, shuttered factories, and overall stagnant supply chain is a problem but we will work together in this crisis"
To
"Sorry inflation. Record profits? No inflation"
I feel like the haters over exaggerate. Like they say that raytracing will never happen and shouldnt. Technology will eventually improve and methods get better. Saying never and getting upset that there is an option to toggle in a game that pushes graphics is wrong. Its silly to think otherwise.
That said I think a lot of the hesitancy and fear comes from the worry that we will be moving forwards too quickly. As it stands the hardware that isnt just adequate with upscaling but good at ray tracing is like $1000-$2000. AMD cards are at a handicap as well. I think the fear is that the industry dives in too fast and abandons the old lighting techniques leaving people with lower end hardware behind or with a low setting that looks way worse than the older methods of lighting.
I think the fear is unfounded though since consoles will always be the primary target and A) They use amd or nvidia's mobile chip and B) they have to have a competitive price. As a result it will be a long while before we go all in on ray tracing.
He jumps with honor
Hes probably like spok. Neutral enough to be the same on both sides. Mirror Voyager has gotta be wild tho
I mean, it's not wrong. I expect quite a lot of lewd and rude content as well.
Will be very neat to see the community reaction to this. To this day dooms open source engine is prolific. I imagine this will be amazing for fan and indie games
Even in the american mythos of the mayflower it mentions them surviving off established food caches and stores from abandoned settlements. People dont think much about that, but they werent left behind because the natives were so welcoming to the Pilgrims.
While we did dump most of our tea in boston harbor way back when, some did make it's way through our borders since then.
Yeah at it's best reddit is an aggregate of content from around the web and a message board.
The only thing I can think of that this makes sense for is to keep the onlyfans people who promote on reddit(or got started on gonewild) to stay on reddit. I feel like reddit is probably not trying to get more in bed with providing porn so Im curious exactly what the application could be otherwise.
I could have sworn they did this already a while back.
It certainly shows that the federation doesnt need a weird shadowy organization to skirt the rules and make morally ambiguous decisions.
Im mostly pro congestion pricing but there are two things that make me sympathetic to some of the detractors.
One issue is that well, the New York metro area as a whole is better than the rest of the country when it comes to public transit and getting people into the city. It is still has big gaps and holes. For example if you live west of the Hudson the metro north is not as complete as east and then you have towns in nj also not on the rail line. These people don't have the means to be able to take public transit in a way that doesn't add a significant, significant amount of time to their already long commute. And on top of that, they're already paying pretty hefty tolls to get to and into the city on top of the car maintenance and the gas. And a lot of these people live in the far fringes of the metro area, not just because they are priced out of the closer, better connected suburbs, as well as the city itself.
The other side of the argument is that the MTA is genuinely dysfunctional. Like it was only a few years ago that the governor decided to try and do a surprise visit to see the workers working overtime and found that nobody was there.The MTA is mismanaged in all facets. I don't blame people for being skeptical that this money will be well utilized.
That said, a large majority of people who are anti- congestion are just car-brained and do live near a convenient rail or park and ride and Would probably improve their own quality of life if they just took public transit instead of sitting in traffic every day.
