Today on Digital Foundry, we check out the path tracing upgrade for Doom: The Dark Ages stacked up against the existing maxed RT experience. An already impressive game gains an extra level of fidelity: youtu.be/BR3c9lyV5as

Jfc, "outdated" is not how to describe miasma theory. That's like saying phrenology or humours is just outdated. If you don't know, miasma's are "bad air" that causes disease. Before we could actually see germs, bacteria, and understand how disease works, this was the reigning theory.

Know your rights before you hit the streets. Peaceful protest is protected — but only if you know how to protect yourself legally. Read, share, and stay safe.

I'm at the Charlottesville #nokings protest and the crowd is HUGE. Lining both sides of the major road in town. Easily a thousand determined patriots, and we just started!

This is what an authoritarian dictatorial regime that has established a militarized police state looks like.

Rep. Gomez: LA County alone is 34% foreign born, 34%. So when he says they're going to liberate us, who is he going to liberate us from? Ourselves?

There is talk about likes being down by 50% but roughly year over year, everything - likes, posts, and follows - are still up.

🥱 In fact, I hate that bluesky users were extremely successful at recreating Twitter sans its fascism, but replacing it with insufferable quasi-totalitarian radical lefty correctness (and I say this as a left leaning antifascist!) At the very least we are semi-free from algorithms and AI.....

We're experiencing USA's Tiananmen Square. Literally on the scale of September 11, but will you remember where you were or what you were doing the past couple days while the US govt. decided that immigrants were the enemy, that your neighbors are not welcome? That the American dream was all a lie?

the same people that make their entire political persona about how we're "fighting against fascism!!!" talking about how "only idiots throw rocks at police tanks" are the biggest dorks in the world. you think democracy is under attack but throwing a rock is a step too far?

Can't believe I didn't foresee that Invincible's satisfying bloody beat downs would make the basis for a very satisfying fighting game. It's so obvious in retrospect!

I can be as anti-microsoft as ever and still be excited for this, for what this will do to the videogame industry. Fuck Nintendo, their Switch 2 is boring (and not yours according to their TOS). I just hope they keep it, and Windows, AI-LLM fat trimmed or Linux will destroy them. Competition, yay!

I can actually believe that the Ninja Turtles and the Doom Slayer are skaters. I refuse to believe that Tony Hawk's full name is Tony Hawk Pro Skater tho.

The inability of the US and the western world to get their population to feel excitement about technological advancement will be one of the reasons why they'll be left behind, with real consequences to their standards of living as others surpass it.

Not only you did vote for deporting moms, but for the ethnical cleansing proposed by the extreme right. We, progressives, warned that a vote for Trump was a vote for hate and racism, yet many turned heel trusting that evil is impossible in "exceptional USA". Calling out fascism wasn't hyperbole.

this is sad in so many ways but I think the one that's sticking with me is the idea that "moms" are some sort of protected class when actually they're extremely common, not protected, and in some ways the primary targets of the people you voted for

This. Absolutely this! A lot of people misunderstand and confuse science with ideology; in scientism there's the false belief that science is the only valid path to knowledge, overextending its scope beyond its original objective. But science is a method, not a doctrine and much less a religion.

Science is not truth. Science is finding the truth. When science changes its opinion, it didn't lie to you. It learned more.

[TLoU part 1 spoilers follows] (It's been 12 years since the game release, is it really a spoiler?) What Neil revealed changes little to nothing, nor it destroy "nuances" like some idiot only seeking entertainment said, to the already complex ethical dilemma posed by the game's ending.

To be clear, I'm just memeing, but thanks for the immediate likes and repost. But if you thought I was being serious about it ;3 and you started clutching your pearls because "oh no, this is political violence" I'll just say that right wingers have spent YEARS spouting political violence online.
