I don't hate you. I just think you're wrong.

@wonderbreader @DrakkenNoodle Unfortunately, the question was asked in one of the amas, and the answer is there are no plans to do this.

@HeartStopper61 @dw_russian @28Entropiya Да хуй там. Я тут сижу смотрю на этих людей... скажут что так и надо и пойдут с горки кататься в парке.

@StamsterS @bejiitas_wrath @T3chFalcon In that same sense something that remembers where you mounted that usb device will HAVE to remember the partition's UUID to do it without your input next time.

And a lot of people use DEs that integrate such mechanisms on Linux, which means there's a similar db on their systems.

@StamsterS @bejiitas_wrath @T3chFalcon However x2, I don't believe this is a nefarious surveillance feature. It's likely that some engineer just thought this would solve some corner case with a customer's device.

[CMDR Jack L. Frost @openfbtd]

@gosuprime022 @Pirat_Nation It's also likely a result of data duplication, optimizing for HDD use. They should probably not to that these days, as Helldivers 2's example shows but w/e.

@gosuprime022 @Pirat_Nation How big is GTA 5? This isn't a “racing game” it's an open-world carpg with racing.

On that same note tho, Dirt Rally 2.0 is like 80 gigs, and that IS a racing game. It's just detailed as fuck.

The room behind a glass approach also has obvious limitations: good luck placing such a mirror in a large area or a moving object.

[CMDR Jack L. Frost @openfbtd]

What happened with mirrors is that it became really bloody expensive at some point to do it the way it's done in old games, i.e. render a complete copy of the room behind a glass.

There's a lot of time between that and the appearance of RT.

[Brodie Robertson @BrodieOnLinux]

Do you guys remember when mirrors just worked in older games and then every dev got obsessed with raytracing and then mirrors started sucking again, well now we have AI that is hallucinating a mirror so badly it adds a second player model in the world.

[CMDR Jack L. Frost @openfbtd]

Like yes this genAI shit is ridiculous but the timeline here is completely wrong. Mirrors “worked” in older games via methods that are too expensive and hacky for more detailed, modern ones.

RT is literally the proper solution to mirrors, everything else is tricks and hacks.

@Horny4politics @OrganizerMemes @barbarismcrit Easy dipshit filter. You think BE “has a point” — you're not fit to have an opinion.

Excuse me what the fuck.

@tracewoodgrains So, the specific element of Whole-Language learning I’m talking about is actually called “three-cueing,” and it instructs students, upon looking at a new word, to take a guess, and then move along without actually reading it. No phonics.

75% of U.S. teachers used in 2010.

Otherwise all you've done is played vile transphobe for a few months, which I'm sure was cathartic in some way, but welcome to explaining to people how *that* quote from you is from your “undercover” stunt for the rest of your life.

For nothing.

[CMDR Jack L. Frost @openfbtd]

The only case in which this was worth it (assuming it's true at all) is one in which you got something *juicy* as all fuck.

[CMDR Jack L. Frost @openfbtd]

Anyway, it would be a massive shame if many people sent the entire text of War and Peace to this address. Theoretically. I'd never do such a thing.

[CMDR Jack L. Frost @openfbtd]

Since when does twitter quietly nuke your posts, wtf.

[CMDR Jack L. Frost @openfbtd]

Honestly who fucking knows anymore if it's malice or incompetence, this website is being held together by hopes and prayers.

[The Millennial Snowflake 🇵🇸 @Teh_Snowflake]

Please spare us.

This is exhausting.
