It’s far more common for Democrat run municipalities to create municipal cable and for Republicans to outlaw (or propose outlawing) municipal cable state wide.

It’s not even politicizing it’s a literal Republican talking point that the government should stay out of things and let free market competition sort these things out.

The problem with that of course is that they’d rather take money from some regional monopolies than actually create a free market system with reasonable restrictions on it.

Don’t forget “I thought Republicans were the party of states rights? Why are they trying to ban abortion nationally after some states held elections to protect abortion in their state constitution?”

I had a buddy who was a Linux ARM laptop fanatic back in like 2014. Microsoft had been trying to make Windows on ARM a thing for years before that.

Apple was the first to popularize it but it’s been a work in progress if you’ve been paying attention for a LOT longer. What helped Apple is all the work they did on their own ARM chips for iOS. They managed to get pretty close to x86 performance in an ARM chip. They also had an app store of apps that could run on them and an emulator for things that wouldn’t.

Every time Microsoft tried nobody would release ARM builds… People just bought the x86 laptops. It’s the same chicken and egg problem desktop Linux has had for years.

Apple didn’t invent the ARM laptop

Really excited for this!

• Fire map return confirmed.
• Twitch drop in October.
• 25 hunter slots will be added (max of 75 up from 50).
• Prestige is being changed to unlock more guns earlier on. Next year they will be making bigger changes to prestiege.
• Challenge pools are going to get a refresh w/ new challenges.
• Similar traits are going to be collapsed into one trait (e.g. scope smith will just be one trait).
• Weapon inspection confirmed (rolling out in batches, starting with pistoles, melee weapons, and some tools, more will be added over time).
• Console, controller, and gamepad support is getting a refactor to add aim assist, dead zone adjustments, and acceleration options this winter. Early next year custom button maps and a new weapon wheel.
• New backend next year that will allow for updates without downtime.
• These new servers will also fix issues with server outages (one region going down will not cause the entire game to go down).
• The new servers will also give quicker inventory and bloodline interactions.
• Network layer is being further improved to the timing accuracy (fixes rubber banding, projectile path consistency, and trade windows with long delays).
• Match making is being refactored to be more stable (i.e., your MMR won’t move as quickly).
• Match making will allow a team of two to partner with a third random player.
• Team voice chat will be changed to allow voice chat with randoms without broadcasting to everyone nearby (also works when dead).
• Staffing up their anticheat, antitoxicity, and antitoxicity teams.
• CryEngine 5.11 update is still under way, planned for release in early 2024.
• New map early 2024 that launches with the update. The new map is a showcase of the new CryEngine features.
• This will move hunt to the “current gen” of consoles (Xbox Series X, PS5 — free upgrade, all DLC and items carries over). No more Xbox One or PS4.
• Hunt “Minimum Specs” are being increased … (<10% of community expected to be impacted).
• The game will support at least, DirectX 12, FSR 2.1.2, Direct Storage, and HDR. They will continue to add more features after launch.
• Complete UI overhaul to refactor every screen and increase navigation to launch with this update as well (for both mouse and keyboard and console).

Sounds like ~April 2024 will be a big update.

Sure, but these things exists as fancy story tellers. They understand language patterns well enough to write convincing language, but they don’t understand what they’re saying at all.

The metaphorical human equivalent would be having someone write a song in a foreign language they barely understand. You can get something that sure sounds convincing, sounds good even, but to someone who actually speaks Spanish it’s nonsense.

This is definitely top 10 Linux memes of all time for me.

The funny thing is… for me it wasn’t even the API changes, it was how Steve reacted to the community feedback. If you need to make your app profitable that’s fine by me, but don’t ignore your customers so bluntly. They could’ve easily worked politely with devs to find an agreeable API price, find alternative funding streams for those devs, etc. They did none of that, instead Steve acted like a jerk.

I’m not really sure I agree that icon looks better; I also don’t know the origins of that icon, it looks like it might have been created by the Hunt Showdown reddit mods/community, and I don’t think it’s in good taste to steal their icon…
