This is true, but neither can Brazil utilise their entire economy against him. Musk could definitely get a few billion out if he really tried (he got a $6b loan backed by Tesla stock and $20 billion in cash to buy Twitter), and the equivale

Brazil the country is, but Brazil the country is also made up of people, and none of them individually hold $250 billion of assets that they could use against someone - that's about 10% of Brazil's GDP (not that GDP/net worth

Harry Potter is a clone of Star Wars? I don't really see it, any more than any story that follows the Hero's Journey. I remember being a kid and reading Eragon though, and that really was very similar.

Yes it's less efficient and reliable than regular Doom, but it's not just limited to Doom. You could have it simulate a very graphically advanced game that barely runs on current hardware and it would run at the exact same speed a

Everyone already knew they were going to be impressive so the stock price reflected that, and so it fell because they were expecting it to be slightly more impressive than it already was.

I agree that Next is too big and you might as well just render it server side, but my question is, if you’re using HTMX, aren’t there substantial costs to the server side rendering that you’re doing, compared to sending lighter JSON and let

In case anyone has the same problem, I asked and they can't. Luckily I only have couple of hundred wishlists on the prologue so I'll switch it out easy.

What if it's only after you see it that you think you thought of it the day before? If it's all in your head, there's no way of knowing that your mind didn't just make up the memory of thinking about something in the pas

Personally I wouldn't use this, not because I have anything against AI, but because I think that trust is one of the main reason that you would use a headshot. If you have a headshot then people are more likely to believe that you&#x27

I started in uni during the start of Covid because I was playing Warband and I wanted to see if I could do something like the overworld in Unreal. Then I left it for a few months, got the idea of turning it into a proper strategy game and w

If this one does alright my next would be a crusades game with similar-ish mechanics, feudalism, the pop system from Victoria 2, multiple-settlement provinces and realtime movement.

Thank you! If you replace a prologue (as standalone game) with a demo, can you transfer the wishlists? Marketing isn’t my strong point, if I ever had the money to make another the first person I’d hire would be marketing. My boss owns a PR

Just me, I work on it in my spare time. I’ve contracted out for some of it - some of the UI elements and models, and the soundtrack. All in all I’ve probably spent $5000 max on it.

I don't think this is entirely true, it's more that there are areas where the US would be viewed as more left-wing on average than Europe and areas where it's more right-wing. For instance, the US has legal gay marriage when

What I think is more likely is that parents are more likely to name their children with some names based on their ethnic background and it's easier to guess ethnic origin in adults than in children. If you have a stereotype of what an

They do stuff like this, I'm not sure exactly what they use - it could be AI or manual or a combination of both. Have a look at Tom Cruise in the latest Mission Impossible and compare that to how he looks in reality. There was an India
