Nope. Now a modern nuclear submarine….

Can you run it in a VM?

Likewise there’s irony in SpaceX naming theirs after Culture ships. They should have stolen Weilan/Yutani ship IDs instead.

Nixon’s head on a robot body.

Same. Computer stuff now is better in almost every aspect. The internet (1997-2010) was more enjoyable though.

So citizens + permanent residents.

It’s most likely they mean to cap citizens. They still need cheap labor.

They still had a license for it and it was tech they knew and understood well. The EOL may have occurred in terms of sales, but Autodesk still supported the license and so it makes sense for a small studio taking a big risk on a new product to reuse what they can.

Have you thought about reaching out to them and offering to show them how it can be optimized? The number of SWE’s out there that understand GPU architecture and game engine optimization for DX[11-12]/Vulkan are a select group so if you can lend any help here I’m sure they’d greatly appreciate your expertise.

It’s not their rendering engine, they licensed Autodesk Stingray and rewriting it isn’t something that makes sense for the current game. As that would require reworking and retesting everything. That’s something they would do for HD3.

I have several friends that work at AMD and NVIDIA in the graphics (hw and sw) groups. They’re all in a slow transition to other compute groups. Their comments are that once we got ray tracing there wasn’t much in terms of hardware optimization for them other than increasing memory bandwidth. Everything else comes down to software.

Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line.

D6-8 are like that. Its a flood of the light to midrange enemies that roll over you.

D9-10 are better because it fills in more heavies.

Just one of many points. It was at the forefront of my mind.

You still have to file US taxes for 7 years afterwards to prove you didn’t renounce just to avoid paying.

Looks like it will soon be 8yrs and no option for dual citizenship. You also need native speakers help to navigate the bureaucracy. AfD will add more impediments.

…security clearance??

I like rough/scratchy materials now. I used to hate the feel of rough wool or clothes/towels that were dried in the sun. Now it just feels good against the skin. Soft materials feel wrong and flimsy.

Oh ya, Russian Doll and Future Man, good call on those.

Though Russian Doll kept the future immutable. I thought that was a much smarter way of incorporating the time travel.
