I can see the argument for preserving some hard copies of things, but I'm pretty sure if WWIII occurs, the most vital thing we need to rebuild is not ensuring the pension continuity of retired Federal workers, which is what that cave in PA stores...
Why not? After the war, the retired feds will still be retired feds that worked for their pension. It's no different from any other records. The point of deep storage is to have a hard backup of everything, so that we aren't just totally listless. They have similar hard copies of social security information, military service records, and plenty of other things. Sure it's not stuff that's immediately important, but that's why it's stored at the bottom of a defunct mine.
The sad thing about infinite is it had so much potential to be a great game. Look up early footage of the game and the story. 2k really fucked this one up.
Ken Levine fucked it up by being so over budget, past deadline, and disorganized.
It does have one long-lasting legacy
I thought SFM was the software of choice for those videogame porn animations?
Bol fell off so hard, but it's true that Elizabeth (and Overwatch) were the impetus for SFM/Blender goon material.
All that shit happened for OG Bioshock and GTA IV too, although somewhat more deserved since those were far better games in general
they literally ran a fucking gamergate campaign on bioshock infinite that people still blindly repeat about sexism and elizabeth to cover for the most blatant example of band aid game design ever shipped. the reason elizabeth is shit is because she was an excuse to compromise on level design, they didn't spend effort putting items in the game world for the player to discover because elizabeth spawns them in front of you - and somehow people are not willing to take that as a worthwhile criticism of a game with "bioshock" in the title because of an aggressive ad campaign by journalists during peak gamergate
Critical support to Comrades Hegseth and Waltz
No, it really, really isn't.
I'm really not in agreement with Vance at all. I get the concern he had but the Houthis, even though esoteric, caused global inflation by forcing Europe to spend millions clearing cargo ships. You can scream Jews and jump up and down all you want, but that's the reality. The Houthis were causing inflation all around the planet to enrich themselves and blowing them the fuck to kingdom come is in the best interest of everyone.
Yes, it is 1000% a NECESSITY. As of right now, KiwiFarms is the only place I can easily find a majority of these news articles. The Mockingbird Media State has gotten very efficient at memory holing stories. At this point, if it's not on KiwiFarms, I can't find it. These news outlets are complete dystopian faggots and delete articles, and change titles all the time. There's news stories I simply can't find anymore solely due to Google being Big Brother and saying "You're not allowed to remember this". Which is incredibly frustrating in real life when I tell someone about an event and then simply can't find the article because they changed the title and buried it. Always, always, always fucking archive. These faggots will memory hole anything and everything they possibly can because they know the average human can't remember anything from two weeks ago and has piss poor long term memory.
it's all fake anyway, we all know they're hiding a stargate in there
SFM is simple and accessible, which is good to get fast and easy results, but anything beyond that you want a "proper" tool to give you more freedom, but that comes at a cost.
it's still good, for all it's flaws they put some real effort in it. but I also never treated it as a new chapter in videogames, just a nice game I enjoyed a lot.
>They went after him like they did me
It was at first but to my knowledge Valve hasn't touched it in years, so it's grossly outdated.
Why can't a normal raid or zfs array be used? When one drive has a problem, just change it for another drive.
It's worse than not giving a damn. The spambots make the metrics look good. The spambots that just ping you with random likes or invites to a private chat are minimally annoying but make their site look more attractive to the advertisers. They actively want the spambots.
There was a lot of gaslighting about Bioshock Infinite, but I would argue the first GG-like situation in the industry that had an almost identical rollout was the Mass Effect 3 controversy. Every single person who wasn't a Bioware developer or game journalist agreed the ending was 24-karat shit, nothing about it was justifiable, and the DLCs, if anything, made it worse. Every single week we saw new articles fellating the game harder and decrying the playerbase as entitled, if not outright evil, for taking issue with the ending being so bad as to undermine the entire series up to that point.
Mass Effect 3 was 99% a great game, with an ending that was worse than the ending for Mass Effect 2. Mass Effect 2's ending mission with all kinds of different variables that would change who in your team lived or died. It was great. Then you were given 3 choices that all amounted to the reapers winning. It was like being slapped in the face.
