    • Microsoft has never been good at running game studios, which is a problem when it owns them all

  • not always true, they clearly bought zenimax to make exclusive xbox games.

  • the person above is also assuming 0-100% charge every day. most people won’t go through a whole battery charge every day, at least for the first couple years.

  • you’re also assuming 0-100% charge every night which most people won’t do. so very likely much more than 3 years.

  • are you comfortable with a single corporation having control over this sort of service? the current government is obviously not ideal but that shouldn’t stop us from regulating monopolies.

  • But then again, I don’t even know if the ones doing the same now do either.

    RFK Jr defintiely does.

    yeah i don't have any official recommendations on Lysenkosim reading, but wikipedia's article seems to do a good job. He just had terribly wrong ideas about gene transfer, grafting, etc. all based on Lamarckism, which he believed to be more compatible with communist ideology.

  • been using Big Picture for years. it’s a better experience than the ad-riddled UIs of the xbox and playstation.

    Jump

  • Other comment made some good points but it's a much more direct comparison with the government dictating science rather than science guiding government. Lysenko was a soviet scientist who denied [classical] genetics because he perceived random mutations and natural selection to be "burgeois" and "fascist"; instead he pushed Lamarckism genetics (genetic adaptation and inheritance through struggle) which he thought was more compatible with communist ideology. Because of that ideological agenda he got backing from Stalin.

    He went on to design their agricultural system around lots of wrong genetic inheritance ideas. (For example, attempting to mutate crops by exposing them to harsh conditions, or mutating entire plants by grafting two species together.) Soviet scientists pushing back were round up and imprisoned or executed. So not only was their agriculture failing, but they killed off entire generations of biologists which set them back even further.

    Other communist countries also took up the idea (including china) and all their agriculture suffered greatly for it. Millions and millions of people died from malnutrition or starvation.

  • same. the trick is to float by doing literally nothing as slow as possible. it takes some trial and error to figure out when you can maneuver again but you do have to be a little patient.

  • i don’t think it’s a spoiler to say this because you learn very early in the game - physically everything in the worlds goes back to square one after 22 minutes (or if you die).

    you do get to keep a log of everything you learn about the worlds and story but that’s all that persists. the log is actually helpful, so follow that if you get lost.
