Well, actually, when you put it that way, it actually makes this sound like the right ruling. They have a site that they allow negative reviews of things all the time. And if they didn't have the protection racket, they could still aggregate negative reviews legally.
So, the main problem here is that you can't trust yelp not to be a pile of lies. Paid reviewers. Paid review removals. So much conflict of interest that you have no hope of getting a genuine assessment of a business.
I'm not sure what "many games" have to do with hardware specs, and I'm already familiar with the fact you brought up. So... I think you'll have to clarify your case further, if indeed, you're trying to explain AC's case.
From the-not-actually-true-also-we're-discussing-approximations-file: I'd be happy to care and update my opinions if you could objectively outline your case with numbers.
I mean, I understand the idea of rewarding people for inventing useful things, but is it really worth all the nonsense actual inventors have to suffer these days?
Priceless. That's a great word to use in a "you don't know what you're talking about" speech.
I don't get you guys. You have no clue exactly how mindlessly you're parroting things that you read on a blog somewhere, and me pointing it out is going to result in another angry tu quoque. I can't even imagine what series of thoughts that you might have had that lead you to go "I got you now!" with geophysics. But they aren't anywhere near sane.
And while it conflicts with ideals I consider higher, proportionality and due process, I can't not be amused at the irony of attempting to corner a market resulting your outright exclusion from it.
Because speculation doesn't require me to have a detailed and complex understanding of the particulars of CPU/GPU limitations. As a developer I've only ever run up against the "I'm rendering way too many polygons" problem.
Which is the kinda thing cleaned up through optimization.
Code and good code are different. You know that. It certainly would depress the marketplace to a measurable degree, but only in that it shifts the bell curve of coder competency vs number of coders a bit taller.
And we drop the pretense nuanced of understanding the models for boring denier talking point that reflects a piss-poor understanding of both the measurement methods and the most basic attributes of climatology(like inter-annual variation).
Yeah, okay, so you didn't want to "Correct" me out of some more detailed understanding, but instead we're #2 or 3 ranked item in pseudoscientist tactics. You were trying the "It's complicated so any scientific attempt at understanding is foolhardy compared to my outright absurd forgone conclusion" line.
Do you like being like the creationists? Like the Homeopaths? Engaged in the same inanity? Does that make you feel good about yourself?
Oh shut-the-fuck up asshole. You know full well the fact that human factors are undeniably warming the atmosphere is completely distinct from the minutia of the models.
2 years old puts you on par with the latest generation of console hardware, which is what AAA developers target, and indie devs tend to focus more on whatever idea/style they're trying to show than pushing polygons.
In a year or two, when it becomes clear that there are certain kinds of things that can only be done on that years' hardware(maybe something physics related, or AI, or as a pipe dream ray tracing) then your 2 year old rig might start to have some trouble.
Hey, guys, do you think if I include a a well demonstrated scientific fact in quotation marks, suddenly everyone will start believing in a global conspiracy with literally no point like I do?
Science is news for nerds. The impact of major world events on technology is news for nerds. Petulant whining about what subjects you personally don't care about is comments for assholes.
I didn't say that. I meant to imply that their reasons for opposing it would be specious. But since you're the second person to post that they were confused about that, the fault was clearly mine in being a bad communicator.
Every marketer and customer gets some easy benefit from a single marketplace to go with the most customers(for marketers) or marketers(for customers), maximizing the competitiveness of their respective markets. In the physical world, this naturalmonopoly is mitigated more than a little by the utility of physical proximity.
It's a bit like how social networks are successful because that's where all your friends are, but more complex since it involves multiple kinds of participants.
Amazon has filled that role online, particularly for books. And that advantage is can be leveraged for quite a premium. I'm not sure I see a nice clean solution to the problem either.
Yeah, but we know from relatively basic studies of economics, (varying) on the exact elasticity of demand, that any sort of sane monopoly tends to price somewhere in the range of double to triple what a competitive market would.

Presumably, they'll scale the one they have and replace it when the new one is available.
Like mipmaps in games.

Okay, I'll tell you that.
Because this treaty covers reprisals against nations.
Haha. "Geophysics."

Here's what people who actually study geophysics focus on in case you still don't grok why you reached peak stupidity.
You must get pretty tired of hard cuts.

Forget the political pressure.
What about when you look at your site, and that voice in the back of your head goes "Look upon what you have wrong, and despair mortal"?

Because moot has to field all the FBI visits.
Unlikely.

You just want to "correct" me.

Sometimes I want to send headlines of this sort back to 1998 and see how the people of that era would react.

But, of course, we don't know that the density of the planet is comparable to earth.
Yeah, but we know from relatively basic studies of economics, (varying) on the exact elasticity of demand, that any sort of sane monopoly tends to price somewhere in the range of double to triple what a competitive market would.
Not the fantastical 20x you just proposed.
Yeah, actually let's figure out the moon or mars first. Hell, Venus is probably an easier technological challenge.
Teah, they call that "thust to weight ratio" you're referring to specific impulse
