It does seem like a parody. Isn't the backstory of Ebenezer Scrooge throwing his life and relationships away for profit? I can see some opportunities for showing how stupid that is, but without the epiphany moment of A Christmas Carol, will he just end the story as a bitter old man?
Or is this just a retelling of the whole story at which point it's yet another remake that doesn't need to be made...
I'm not quite sure what the advantage of doing it that way is
If I had to guess, it just kept the programmers from being super lazy about it. If the individual enemy AI doesn't have exact coordinates of the player, it actually has to move around, search a space, potentially manipulate the environment, and possibly fail to find the player, versus doing what is effectively an idle animation while waiting for the player to step out of cover.
I'm with you. She's especially great at physical comedy. Reminds me a lot of Lucille Ball in I Love Lucy. Not to mention, she's a complete 90s fashion icon.
Her later work as president of the Screen Actor's Guild showing solidarity and striking with the writers made me a fan before I ever watched the show.
American people have plenty of empathy and compassion, what they don't have is literally anyone else to call.
If you have an emergency, you call 911 and as soon as they hear the word "gun" cops are the only outcome. Maybe in some universe a person has some foresight in case of a suicidal person with a gun and can look up local resources or something, but until we have something built into emergency services for this, panicked people are going to do the one thing they can think of when someone needs help.
Complete non-story. The Deck has been out for years for this verification to mature and it's usually less about specs (in the age of FSR/DLSS etc.) and more about "can this game be played with this control scheme comfortably" which is not an issue for the Steam Machine since it's just a PC.
So, the answer to the question “Can Linux directly host another Unix-like operating system’s binary interface?” at the moment is “partly, experimentally, and impressively.”
As if there was any question on that? You can have Linux "handle" Windows PE binaries by telling it to invoke wine, dealing with a Unix-like scenario is a much lower bar.
The question is who is this useful for? FreeBSD has the Linux compatibility layer because it's playing catch up to Linux, but the Venn diagram of stuff FreeBSD can do but Linux can't is tiny, especially if extra special kernel feature stuff is stubbed.
Can anyone name a project that is BSD first, doesn't rely on BSD kernel features, doesn't have a native Linux port, and isn't a distro tool?
I'd vote for AOC a thousand times harder than for Newsom. I'm not sure she actually wants the position though, she's potentially got a long career as a rep (or senator) in front of her and could probably turn into a Presidential candidate in any cycle, but having a major legislative win is bigger than that, according to her
Bari Weiss is a disgusting hack, and laughably unqualified, but being a news outlet editor is way more complicated than just rubber stamping factual reporting. Editors allocate resources - from writers and photographers/crews to even start a story, to how the front page is divvied up, how stories are promoted, how many column inches (or words, or minutes) a topic gets.
Point being that there are definitely feelings involved. Even if it's one story is more interesting than another, or we've covered this topic more than enough lately, or this story is factual but not adding anything new, etc. etc. etc. It's a hard job, and more subjective than you'd think, so I don't blame her for being defensive when she's literally the worst editor to ever hold a national news desk down.
AOC had to walk so Mamdani could run. Not only proving DSA candidates were electable, but also that they could actually do the job by being pragmatic (for better or worse).
Sexism might be an easy answer, but let's not forget that AOC is a rep with a small district, and got around 100k votes. Mamdani represents millions of New Yorkers and curried more than a million votes in his election. Mayor is also a much broader executive position than being one of 438 reps.
Point being, Mamdani's election/position comes with a lot more mandate than AOC's, regardless of gender.
Original comment missed GPU, yeah that looks like a fine deal for a decent gaming rig.
Only thing that makes the Steam Machine really interesting is the form factor and integration, maybe future targeting by game devs for optimization.
I like this comic but Beetle Moses needs to actually look at a tortoise, haha.
Their arms and legs don't pop out of holes in their shells, their shells are more like wraps around their torsos (it's a strapless dress, not a onesie). Also those scutes (panels of the shell) are fucked.
... Why yes, I'm fun at parties, why do you ask?
