I thought the story in ac Odyssey was very unique with how it prioritized the morality of the time and contrasted it with our modern day morality, and I spent plenty of hours really enjoying that world. Probably my favorite large open world to date (but that is entirely personal preference). I do think Mario kart 8 is the best kart racer ever, and definitely deserves to be on the list for that alone.

I have no knowledge about diablo 4, but I think the others are really fun games in their genre?

I completely agree with you. An interesting aspect to this is that when it was still Twitter, Apple was one of the biggest marketers on the site. This was because all of the other online ad venders were direct competitors (google with phones, and Facebook with virtual reality). So having a place that isn’t google/meta to pump ad dollars makes sense to some businesses, or at least it did before the percentage of Nazi content rose so much.

Or the code is the operating system that the application is running on, or the code is the firmware that is operating the GPU that is crunching the numbers to make the neural net, or the code is the friends we made along the way.

In this case, no. This is just interpreting what the next frame should be by the previous one. Like how the sora videos work, but with input.

Sounds like you are wanting a system that punishes an ethnic group of children for being given worse opportunities.

But if the pool of candidates between the races were equal, why did fewer black candidates make it in? Is the new system racist against against black candidates, are black people less deserving of slots, or is there something that happens pre-applying for college that makes black candidates less appealing?

So the question then becomes, why are there less black candidates that can get in when race blind? Are black people just dumber? Or has the system they grew up in acted on them in a way that disadvantaged them? Because if we agree with the former, we are racists, and if we agree on the latter, well then it’s unfair to them because the system actively worked against them.

I agree that income matters more than race. Obviously. But they cut out considering race, and then less black people made it through the admission process. You can’t say that you are a big fan of the process AND you wish there were different outcomes.

Black people experience racism that has disadvantaged them, and it seems silly to think that we shouldn’t acknowledge that in processes that could give them a leg up.

So you are happy with less black students getting in?

They had a way of weighting a person’s background as a part of their application. So imagine 2 students: -4.0 through high school, AP classes, a bunch of extra curriculars, great test scores -3.8 through high school, one AP class, no extra curriculars (because of family responsibilities), great test scores.

If the second student is a black student coming from a disadvantaged community, they legally can’t consider that in their admission process.

I think it is optional now, and after they observe it’s stability for a while, they will move it into base update, but I’m not sure.

Having it at unsafe levels in drinking water.

It’s time to use the good ole “don’t attribute to malice, what can be explained by incompetence”

Why are you waiting?

He’s one guy compared to multiple companies? I think I would bet on the multiple companies.

Yeah, if we couldn’t exterminate the Taliban, it stands to reason we wouldn’t be able the exterminate the cartels.

It is uncommon. North Carolina is a weird state when it comes to politics, and it’s impressive that cooper has been as popular as he has been in the state.

I think you are right about it being machismo. A thing to know though is that plenty of Christians hate Catholics. The schism between Catholics and Protestants still burns bright for some people.

That would be great, but I’m not sure she would win. Obviously I don’t know, but it seems like moderates on the democratic side do better.
