No I'm thinking in terms of we cannot revive the dead so let's not put the genocidal wannabe dictator in power for 4 years. I clearly can't stop what's currently happening but I'm sure as hell not going to vote in a way that results in more people dying more quickly.

You mistake accepting genocide with trying to prevent a worse genocide.

The genocide argument is a really bad one. Yes the Biden administration is culpable. The Trump administration would pump more money into it and start parading around the genocide like it's a good thing.

There's voting for the side who might get tired of the public opposition and stop funding that shit, or letting the genocidal wannabe dictator win.

I mean I'm not really picking to not play anymore because I don't want to. They said they were going to turn it on like two months ago and I believed them. I wasn't about to risk my account on the odd chance my crapple device is good enough to play it.

Vanguard was announced and was supposed to be added to League imminently a while ago. I stopped playing months ago as a result. I can hardly imagine that I am the only one, so the number seems cherry picked for convenience.

I'd like to know what the average daily player count on Linux was prior to 2024, I suspect it's higher than 800.

That said, I get the trade-off. I won't support that trade-off though because I will never agree with an anticheat implemented like Vanguard is.

You can see other people in a reflection without them being able to see you.

It is not possible to see someone else's eyes (except from the side, so it's only seeing their eyes in profile) in a reflection without them being able to see you too.

It's literally not possible via reflection, as everything is equal and opposite. If light can go from their eyes to yours, it's also possible to go the opposite direction.

This is what everyone has been saying but instead of thinking through everything clearly, you resorted to bullying.

The only way to accomplish this one-way vision is by adding something that is not reflection to the system (like a one-way window), but that's breaking the premise under which everyone else has been commenting in good faith.

The reflection is only bidirectional if you can see the other person's eyes.

It's like if someone is in a bathroom stall. You could see the stall is occupied by seeing their feet stick below the wall of the stall, but they cannot necessarily see any part of you since their eyes are not where their feet are.

Same principle applies to reflections, where maybe the body part that you can see is just the top of the head, and since the person isn't tall enough they can't see that you can see them.

No bedframe, no nightstand, only one monitor and it's tiny as hell

This looks like a prison, get me out

I missed that part in the article, I should have just searched for the word flood, woops

So if the tip is sticking out for airflow, how does it handle a flash flood?

Spacewar is the app ID for testing Steamworks integration without having an app ID yet.

Google still controls the source, and so they have influence over the rest.

It's like Ungoogled Chromium. Sure, it's open source. Sure, if might have Google crap removed. Google still calls the shots on the direction of the browser.

Same still meaningfully applies to Chromium-based browsers.

Unless it's a Java Minecraft server which I believe exclusively uses TCP still.
