I really don’t think Gaza will be a defining issue in the 2024 election. It’s already fallen out of the news cycle and Gaza city will be under full occupation by next Nov.
Trump, however, will be in the middle of taking a huge beating by all his court cases. There’s zero chance he ever gets more support than what he had last election. The best thing we can hope for is that the GOP puts him up for another election.
Both parties have the same issue right now. Both candidates don’t have great appeal. But there aren’t any Democrats that have an issue voting for Biden. He’s been fine as president. We don’t have to worry about him going off half cocked all the time. The party will fall behind him. The same can’t be said for Trump.
CIG has implemented major changes in the combat flight model with 3.20 to bring it more in line with what their vision of combat should be. They’ve told us these changes are coming for a long time and they’re finally here!...
This video is very informative. I’m really interested in how Master Modes are going to change combat in SC. This feels as big of a change as when supercruise was removed!
Yes but turn rates and acceleration are very different. I don’t expect it will feel anything like E:D, but I do think SCM should be raised to 350 or 400 m/s
It’s not trying to stop scammers. It’s a way to stop other GOP super PACs from collecting money. He just wants to make sure his own supporters are only giving him money and not anyone else.
They’re going to finish the matches on Sept 2 or something, so you will get to see a true winner. After the tournament, it’s the top 4 that get to continue on to Citizencon, but an actual winner will be crowed in two weeks.
I actually don’t think most of our society is qualified to vote.
Voter rights should be determined by whether or not you know anything about what you’re voting for, not based on your age. People should have to pass a test every year.
In 3.14 CIG standardized all component stats to help them collect stats and perform a balance pass for SQ42. Their goal is to create a rough balance for component archetypes as a whole, so they’ve reduced the overall variation in stats across all components.
Almost all stats across the board are the same. There are only slight differences where CIG has tuned each archetype (Civilian, Competition, Industrial, Military & Stealth).
This is even more visible when you look at weapons:
Weapons of the same size will share stats with all other weapons with that type (Laser Cannon, Laser Reapter, etc). Beyond choosing the weapon archetype, there is no difference in brands besides the color of the projectile and sound the gun makes.
When CIG implemented this change (3.14 dropped in Aug 2021) we certainly didn’t think it would take them 2 years to complete their balance pass… but here we are today.
Generally for Size 1 people pick up an Atlas because it lets you go between planets without the need to refuel. Unless you’re trying to intercept for PvP, it has such better efficiency than anything else that it’s a pretty easy choice.
For size 2, the XL-1 and Yeager have been clear fan-favorites, but with the stat crunch the Crossfield is also a good option. Those are the only three with sub-5min travel times from Crusader to Microtech.
I think there’s a lot of people that still haven’t gotten the memo that they shouldn’t be using Twitter or reddit. People still need to be reminded of exactly why if we ever want to see a full shift away from those platforms.
Unfortunately, those messages need to be posted elsewhere because they really aren’t reaching the right audience here. We came here to escape those platforms so the constant shit posting about them is a huge annoyance.
Yeah while this suit covers a very specific scenario, a large majority of AI driven content does have human interaction and does qualify for copyright.
Even just a draft, fed into an AI finishing system, has some human interaction. Nothing is going to stop the AI revolution.
The way the US is spread out makes public transit prohibitively expensive and difficult to achieve proper coverage. To make it effective, you would have to shift the entire way we live. Our entire society is built off the concept that everyone has a car.
Add to the fact that building transit is extra expensive in the US and you arrive at the reality that we will NEVER have a working transit system. That’s why the shift to small cars is needed. We don’t have any more room for roads, so we need more cars to fit in the roads we have
