I think it took note of it being about rescue pigeons and assumed they would have a tag on them and then gave cooking directions for them

While I don’t know much about video cards, the IBM Monochrome Display Adapter (MDA) is often called the first video card and had a couple of contenders for first that were either designed earlier or released at almost the same time in 1981 and were all for displaying text only. The first GPU card sold to the public was the GeForce 256 in 1999. I’m assuming there’s some in between that were not really used by the public that would have been used in movies and whatnot.

The reason why nobody was selling GPUs before Quake was because quake was THE first 3D game. Doom and other games before Quake were 2.5D and didn’t have 3D models only sprites. Games before Quake essentially mimicked 3D while Quake IS 3D

I’m fairly certain that the left one is Combat Evolved

I’d argue that quake did far more for 3D graphics then it did for FPS. Like Doom is what got FPS into the spotlight even though Wolfenstein 3d came first. Like quake is pretty much what made real 3D possible and doable on the hardware of the time thanks to everything going on under the hood

No but that’s like a major red flag type of thing. I was wondering how they get away with that to begin with

All right it says in the wiki that this all kicked off because a kid was getting disciplined at school for something they did in their bedroom and no details are given about that part. That alone seems really messed up

the process still relies on fetal bovine serum (FBS) as a protein-rich growth supplement for animal cell cultures.

FBS, which costs around £300 to £700 per litre

That’s a fancy serum made from cow blood

Also this all comes from a submission to an art museum in 2020, it’s not supposed to be an actual product it’s more of a proof of concept type of thing.

I get cheap hardware. A hardware intensive OS seems stupid to me. I want my computer running the programs that I want, not wasting memory and CPU usage on the OS instead.

Plus I’ve gotten a notification on every laptop I own from Windows telling me to upgrade followed by something saying that they are below specs for the upgrade

I’m sorry that happened. People should be able to have a real discussion about issues without attacking common sense.

So in that case you would be the contrarian that this post is talking about. It’s almost as though critical thinking is good. Reactionaries may be the most vocal and abundant people on some posts, but that doesn’t mean they are right or willing to take a good look and discuss the topic at hand

Echoing malthusian sentiments of “there’s not enough food for everyone” is not helping anyone.

Pointing out the actual problem which is that big farms that exist right now aren’t there to get food to people they are there to make money and they don’t care if it’s sustainable or if anyone gets to eat, is what I did. You’re the one glossing over that.

I don’t think “Food crops cannot sustain the current human population” is the most accurate. I think adding on an “indefinitely” or something similar would be more accurate. The problem is that there’s plenty more land and resources that could go to crops, but it’s more of a problem of how sustainable it is long term.

Topsoil erosion could outpace soil conservation especially with synthetic fertilizer, but if people aren’t getting food now or in our lifetime then it’s not caused by an inability to grow enough crops. It’s caused by companies being driven by the profit motive. It’s more profitable to let food go to waste than get it to people who can’t afford it.

Currently the technology is there to make more than enough crops for everyone, but how sustainable that is in the long term is not something that has been a priority. If more effort is put into making factory farming actually sustainable, which is the way things are starting to go although pretty gradually, then the only thing stopping people from getting food is the incentive to destroy/ let it rot rather than take any potential loss from not artificially inflating prices

Israel has had a very loose criteria for military targets if you take a look at recent history. I think you bring up a major point.

Considering Netanyahu just said he would attack foreign aid for Palestine. Israel’s actions like the IDF sniping kids in convenience stores, and taking shots at the Japanese medical personnel during the cease fire of operation pillar of defense/cloud, and targeting media offices should call into question, what does Israel consider a military target?

My coworker’s cousin got a vaccine once and later they dropped their cell phone and cracked the screen. Coincidence, or proof of the evils of vaccination?

What’s extra scary is the thought that there will be no stories coming out about how this is abused. Not to say that it won’t be, just that the stories that will come out will be how scary the world is and how the police are the only ones keeping everyone safe. Meanwhile some cop is watching someone sleep, or shower, or anything else in the privacy of their own home.

Learn to read in context.

The context of your post is that Doom will run on anything, but it won’t run on Steam Deck.

If I take everything you say out of context then well…

Crisis (2007) is famously unoptimized and will indeed run on Steam Deck (on high settings too) if you use a fan made launcher.

So your example of a game that runs on Steam Deck is an unsupported game. That won’t run after a fresh install.

The difference between Crysis and the remaster is that the remaster is actually optimized and you can probably get it running on a lower end PC, while the OG Crysis can run as a slide show on some modern systems because it’s so unoptimized. When people say “But can it run Crysis?” they aren’t talking about the remaster.

The Steam Deck compatibility on store pages is not a comprehensive list of games that will run on Steam Deck and that’s lame, but that’s not what you posted about

Since you can’t figure it out on your own and are demanding to be right (without bing correct)

Your post says it won’t run Doom. It will.

Why have one that doesn’t actually communicate the status of a games playability? Why have a status called “Playable” and not use it to communicate that yes in fact the game can be played on a SteamDeck.

I agree completely and would have if that was what you posted, instead you said

Turns out the Steam deck WILL run Crysis but not Doom

Supported generally means that they put in some kind of effort to make it compatible. It’s up to the developer to update whether or not something gets marked as compatible.

Nothing was done to Doom to make it compatible with steamdeck it just runs fine on it by default

It works fine on steam deck

Steam deck will run Doom

You’re selling Lemmy short. Lemmy’s got beans, AND the 3 days no pooping.

Missed opportunity for joke about eating pussy, although that term is probably what would cause the algorithm to do this to begin with
