@icedquinn roblox runs like 30-60fps on my son's 10 year old PC. it does have two gtx 1050ti, but those cards were like $90 when i bought them new.

godot could use a lot of TLC with the optimization, based on my experiences with non h-games. Offhand, brotato was awful for a really long time, the latest patch actually made it run >60FPS.

there's others, but i am going to bed.

Good luck!

(p.s. beamNG runs like he's on a potato)
(also it's a 7350k which i bought for single core speed, rofl)

@icedquinn literal potatoes? if you cut em in three and put them on the ground and slowly add more dirt on top as they grow you get free potatoes.

I am not adding an 'e' to be contrary that's just what my fingers do.

also what computer science horrors? I only need like a few more reasons to become an anti-computer luddite.

@EvolLove @RichardKuklinskisIcyGlare @Bernard people are claiming that all steak has microplastics now because the entire planet is coated in them.

is there a DIY way to prove or disprove this or do i need an SEM

@sickburnbro @greyknight i got all wheel drive, i'll rip you out of the hole

@icedquinn i wrote a whole thing about how there's no billionaires without illegality but for some reason firefox rejected this site's cert and i lost it.

Suffice to say that a lot of the wealth in at least the US (and i am sure netherlands, UK, france) came from opium and other vice illegalities.

I made references to trap houses and trap music and how they bankrolled studios and their albums with drug money, and a podcast i listened to was like "isn't that sad", idk it is the american way >.<

@icedquinn the "fuck junkies" thing belies the "carfent will kill you with 0.001 nanograms of skin contact", i guess

did anyone else find it odd that adam and john didn't know what naloxone is?

It's emergency medicine to stop someone from dying of an opiate overdose. I have a kit in the house, my wife has a kit in her car. It's next to the first aid kit and the small fire extinguisher (in the house).

@dcc no yeah we get it, they also used to say that it was illegal to drive barefoot.

and that a passport wasn't valid ID.

californians are crazy

@dcc commiefornia people used to say you were required to carry ID (like a photo ID) but i think Terry court decision means that all you have to provide is your name when stopped. But don't quote me, i haven't studied all 50 states and territories.

@get i feel this way about boston dynamics, even though most of their crap is pre-rendered

@yukiame @ThatCrazyDude it is too late and i am too tired to go take photographs of my miners with my middle finger in frame

@ThatCrazyDude @yukiame what if you mined them 15 years ago

@sun i mined one and one half bitcoin and my retarded roommates were like "durr the electric bill went up $40 so stop"

i also mined 330,000 DOGE.

I cashed BTC out at around $30k and DOGE at like a nickel. before musk did his pump and dump (just like his baby mamas, ig)

@sun me and the ol roommates still play online games and once a year i remind them that they complained about $40 on $150k

@icedquinn which one has paid DLC?

@professionalbigot69 @PurpCat

Wow so the vile hateful stuff isn't the people on X, it was in their hearts all along?

I'm sure there's a trite phrase or idiom we can ascribe to this phenom

@sun cool, how accurate are the translations? I haven't been super impressed with any sort of AI translation, that is, i wouldn't rely on anything i've used in the past. Maybe for japanese, i've never tried that. Mostly russian, spanish, arabic, and occasionally Chinese.

@LukeAlmighty @Jens_Rasmussen they are sad because their words cost them their job, but words cost

you know what, glad you got callbacks.

where can i get textbooks for grade school, or workbooks (that have worksheets i can scan/print whatever)?

my kid is asking for math homework, and my thought is: go into town to staples or whatever and get some workbooks there

But for those that homeschool, are there free or inexpensive resources that aren't sourced in TX?

@ryan i understand why you're saying what you're saying, but most of the dialogue about this is the 11+ prior interactions with the judicial system, and why it seems there's a finger on the scale of justice.

There's a lot of hate online, and most of it (i reckon) is misdirected. But i assuredly don't need someone like you to tell me

some A are B
therefore all A are B

is a fallacy. come on, man.
