[Killed by the State] Some of the people who are upset about a public execution might want to spend more time learning about the many people the USA kills every day who did not "need" to be killed. If you like I can find some examples of perfect victims of the state, but it shouldn't take a [ā€¦]

[Killed by the State] We aren't having the conversation about abolishing the death penalty in all cases. The US is powerful enough to do this. We choose not to and in that way is the decline of the nation as I see it. We are, apparently, not powerful enough or wise enough to figure out how to [ā€¦]

ā€˜For years the Observer tried to get to the truth of Russian interference until we sacked the reporter involved for participating in union activitiesā€™

It comes after years of cover-ups & denials not least from Boris Johnson who was in charge of MI6 as foreign minister at the time & whose first act as PM was to ennoble the Baron of Siberia. But it also went beyond Johnson & Starmer continued it too. We now finally need some sunlight. 2/

@davidgerard can any MMO engineers tell me if $70/player/month with no margin for profit and no cost limit or contract for third-party services is uhhh bad? how do I budget this

also lol @ local models being their backup plan when according to them the game barely works when it switches to a [ā€¦]

@zzt.mas.to.ap.brid.gy

@davidgerard and $70 is the break even point too. no profits at all, and it assumes nothing goes wrong, nothing increases in price, the game doesnā€™t get popular at all, nobody does anything obvious to abuse the system, nobody plays it longer than a month

this is a fucking comedy of errors

@zzt.mas.to.ap.brid.gy

@davidgerard like seriously, how does this work

which single price point makes the game go from an unexpected bank loan to sustainable?

if you assume everyoneā€™s usage is the same (it wonā€™t be), nobody intentionally does anything to spend tokens (they will, gamers fucking hate AI and will [ā€¦]

@davidgerard > However, the developers said that the cost of using AI will be included in the price of the game once it gets final release. ā€œFor the paid release, we plan to account for expected AI usage in the gameā€™s price,ā€ the team said in its update. ā€œPlayers will not be charged separately [ā€¦]
