Of the problems War Thunder has the 4k bullshit textures are at least optional so you don't need 60-80GB just for national security risk simulator.

I got classified documents of a retrofitted Turbine of the C-5 Galaxy as a Power Plant that can use liquified Coal, Natural Gas, Gasoline and Diesel as fuel. Tho the paper states its classified, the turbines are petty much for civillian use

And I got Germany into top tier from reserve without spending a dime over the years.

I've watched those videos so much that I just can't, but I heavily recommend the entire series to anyone who hasn't seen it yet.
Ross already gave out a response to the victory, I am looking forward to Mald's first post-loss stream.

I mean, this seems kind of naive and forgive me for sucking a bit of corpo executive cock here, but... if there isn't an EOL plan from the start, and these games are just getting terminated by executive fiat, the executives are kind of in the right and I pity them for having to wrangle an organization full of retards who didn't think to themselves "maybe we won't be able to keep this server running until the heat death of the universe and we should have a plan for what to do when we decide to turn it off".

The executive running things isn't going to change the culture and will almost certainly greenlight another always online game without an EOL plan. They generally don't consider having an EOL plan until 5 minutes before shutting the game off.

This practice isn't new. Private servers for always online games have existed since the 1990s. In Japan it's taken as a given mmorpgs will be shut off within a few years. Like I remember Persona 3 has a social link framed around the player participating in an online relationship and the link ends when the mmorpg they're playing gets shut off. And that game was made in 2007.

The people who want to create these plans and build the game so that it can't be killed are usually individual developers. Not the corporate executives. There's no shortage of ways to keep the game running indefinitely, like just releasing the server binary so anyone can run it.

I've contacted two well known Twitch streamers, Mark Goldbridge and Limmy (not a fan of the latter but he has a huge following), and asked if they'd support the campaign to make Jason Hall saltier than the Dead Sea.

Will let you know what their response is.

Messaging Twitch and Kick users with a big online presence will help - they won't want to be told that games they play might be destroyed because Jason's failed to lose his virginity to anything resembling a human being.

I would assume he was likely known in that community with the same disrupte he is now. I can't imagine that his propensity to lie, exaggerate and throw people under the bus was well received in a world where people are committing far more serious things than run of the mill pirating and ones reputation is actually quite significant.

I had Abrams manuals but they had big 'ol UNCLASSIFIED across the front of 'em so they could be conceivably FOIA'd.
 
Once the deadline is reached, how long will it take to verify the results? Anyone seen how long previous ones took? I don't think I could handle waiting months to find out if it went through.

Devs and architects do ask these questions. When the time comes to allocate resources to things like, "user privacy protection" and "plans for EOL support", it's the executives who decide to not allow time/resources to be spent on such things because, "MUH MVP THE PRODUCT IS GONNA LIVE FOREVER"

The life of a corpo software dev is actually pretty depressing other than the paycheck. You spend all day in meetings watching MBA retards decide retarded things and you have to bite your tongue because your only job is to implement the spec handed down to you.

Can someone explain to me, an esl retard, what does "silver content" mean. Was literal silver used in film rolls before?
Click to expand...
Yes, Silver Nitrate initially. Which is why older films were flammable in addition to the plastic base the silver is coated on being nitro cellulose (iirc) which is what smokeless powder is made of. Later Silver Halide. They react with light to form silver compounds. Then developed and fixed into an image. Color film works the same way. Just with layers of color filters applied on top. Initially film was more blue sensitive/monochromatic and less sensitive to red light. Which is why the set of the Adams family was pink. As it looked black when filmed. later b&w films into today are panchromatic. Which is sensitive to the whole visible light spectrum and on speciality films, infrared sensitive. Development makes the small silver crystals larger. Fixing removes the rest of the light sensitive particles not exposed to light. Which is why they are a negative image "reversed" in what was contacted to the light and not. Light is less exposed, dark is more exposed. Similar in appearance to silver tarnishing.

Take this with a grain of salt, but someone earlier had given a rough time frame of about 3 months. Depends on the amount of sigs. Probably won't hear anything substantial about this until next year.
