Why am I tripping balls starter pack

Well yeah, if you turn down a woman, she’s going to tell her friends about it.
And those friends probably won’t be interested in starting a relationship with you any time soon.

Those secret whisper campaigns sound straight out of a teenage movie, and not at all how mature people behave. I’d say you dodged a bullet in that case.

Your anecdotal experience is not representative of everyone else’s though, and neither is mine.

I don’t appreciate you resorting to personal attacks to convey your beliefs, so this will be my last reply.

Men reject women all the time, with no societal repercussions.

You have the right to not give someone a second chance, nobody is taking that away from you. I’m just saying the world isn’t always as shallow as your comments portray it to be.

Rejecting someone doesn’t mean you have decided you can do better, or that you aren’t attracted to them. It means at that exact moment in time you weren’t prepared to enter that relationship.

If you get mocked for rejecting a woman, you’re either still in school, or need to get some better friends. Because no sane, rational people would ever think less of you for who you do/don’t date.

It’s understandable why you would feel that way.

People change all the time though.
Perhaps after some of those relationships, they found personality/stability to be more important than looks.

Or maybe they’ve spent years regretting the decision, and the short relationships along the way failed because nobody could compare to you.

Or maybe they genuinely are as shallow as you think, and you’re the last resort in the dating pool.

You can never really know for sure.

No no no, you have it all wrong. Microsoft said it wasn’t their fault!
Please ignore the fact that you can fix the issue by rolling back the windows update that causes it.

Oh no, not “the” government of “the” nation

Are those cold/frozen fries?

Nah, I still enjoy the content, and it wouldn’t make a grain of difference as far as global wasted energy goes.

If you really are concerned about wasted energy though, you shouldn’t be on your computer/phone browsing lemmy.

Or if you use adblock and stream at 4k, google will lose money when you watch videos. Free content while fucking google over is a win win in my book.

I doubt many people outside the US have any clue about whether the US justice system needs to be restructured, so there goes ~95% of the global population.

Excluding people from discussions because they don’t agree with ‘one’ point is setting yourself up for failure.
You aren’t winning anyone over with an all-or-nothing attitude, you’re cutting off many potential allies.

Because you and everyone else in the world are american and must know about everything every american public figure has ever done.

No. No I shouldn’t.

Well if we say the doctor was getting paid a very generous $300 an hour for that work, that’s $450.
Plus seeing the front desk person for a few minutes, we’ll give a generous $50.
So that’s $500 for some very well paid employees.
We’ll throw another very generous $50 in for the antibiotics, making it $550.
Double it so the hospital can take a very large cut, and your total is $1100.

So even leaving massive profit margins with those numbers, you still got ripped off an extra ~$5000.

Not just Europe, most of the world

What? No. That would be crazy.

I write BDFPR from the bottom.
Though I’m also a heretic who starts G from the middle, so don’t listen to me.

But its not 230 murders per 100,000. It’s 289 murders total, for the entire population that year.
0.233 out of 100,000 were murdered.
That’s 0.000233% of 100,000 people.

Practically impossible for this developer? Maybe. Technically impossible? No.

We do have realtime GI solutions which don’t require raytracing (voxel cone tracing, sdfgi, screenspace, etc). None of which require any ‘special’ hardware.

Raytracing is just simpler and doesn’t need as much manual work to handle cases where traditional rasterisation might fail (eg; light leaking). But there’s not many things it can do which we can’t already achieve with rasterisation tricks.
Raytracing is mostly useful for developers who don’t have the time/budget/skillset to get the same visual quality with traditional rasterisation.

However, in an industry which seems to prioritise getting things released as cheaply and quickly as possible, we’re starting to see developers rely heavily on raytracing, and not allocating many resources into making their non-rt pipeline look nice.
Some are even starting to release games which require raytracing to work at all, because they completely cut the non-rt pipeline out of their budget.

So I’d argue that you’re incorrect in theory, but very correct in practise (and getting even more correct with time).

I only use lemmy regularly.
I’ll still check specific subreddits which don’t have a lemmy equivalent, but not that often, and never signed in or with the official app.
