True but ideological reasons seem to be a big driving force for Xi Jinping. More so than his predecessors.
I don't think China has any claim to Taiwan, they never even owned it that long. If the only reason is that it used to belong to them at some point in the past, then well, the Dutch and Japanese have a valid claim too. But they are independent now and that has been the status quo for 70 years. They deserve to be free.
gearbox did not allow for shifting into reverse while the vehicle was moving
Ummm this is probably like, a good thing? You don't want to crank 20 tonnes suddenly in reverse when it's moving full forward.
The other things are pretty bad, true. Especially the uncommanded turrent movements, that can really chop off a limb in the wrong situation. The gun firing is probably not quite as bad because I assume most of the time it wouldn't actually be loaded.
Yeah captchas are done. Soon they will be easier to figure out for AI than for humans.
This is why Sam Altman is doing his worldcoin thingy with the iris scanners. His idea: One iris (well, two...) is one real human. I'm sure this will be abused though and I absolutely vehemently don't trust him with my biometrics so no way I will join that.
I think what we should do is just get used to the fact that the internet now consists of humans and AIs. Learn to take things with a grain of salt.
Eve Online is much much more strategy (third-person) and diplomacy. You don't get anywhere without getting involved deeply with other player groups (corporations). It's more of a business sim than a space sim.
SC is much more pew pew and first-person and teamwork will be much more casual.
I really don't think it's a conscious choice. Just Chris Roberts' typical perfectionism and nobody there to say "Ok, this is enough, we must ship something".
Having said that, I used to think Elite Dangerous had the superior model, but they've proven me wrong by going to absolute shit with Odyssey (no VR support, no walkable ships) and pretty much dropped all development thereafter.
I do notice that in Spain people are more and more omitting the accents because they are annoying to type (with the exception of the ñ which has its own key on Spanish keyboards, besides the 'l', where the ; is on a US keyboard).
The other ones are kinda less important anyway and really, people know what you mean anyway. They don't really think you are wishing them a happy anus (or maybe they do want your anus to be happy in the new year of course, which is nice 🥰)
But yeah it confuses auto translators, because sí (yes) and si (if) is often confused by them. When you're reading spanish you will automatically discern this based on context, the accent doesn't really matter and it's hard to see anyway. On most screens it's like 1 pixel of difference. It does tend to confuse people relying on translators though :)
It could even be in everything, as long as I would have full control of it. When it runs on my computer, under my conditions and managed by me and me alone. Like how my computer used to work before Microsoft dumped all their Microsoft accounts and telemetry and adware and other horrors on us.
An AI assistant can be mightily useful the more it knows about you. The problem is, I don't want Microsoft, Google, Meta or even Apple to know all these things as well. And this is where the problem start. The data these assistants collect will be a goldmine. Of course "our privacy is protected". But yeah that's what these companies always say.
