I think israel had many good reasons to suspect something was coming aside from the anni - apparently also multiple warnings from egypt - and either didn't prep to the threat, or (as it seems with the deployment of forces) pulled soldiers off the wall and borders in multiple places.

doesn't make hamas less bad, they're def war criminals, but this is just... uncharacteristic for the Shin Bet/Mossad/MOI. No intelligence org is perfect, but damn.... this is gonna require study.

Yeah a few steps ahead of you bud, neck deep in openxr on godot now.

edit:

tho thanks for the smarmy 'you're addicted' - you realize people have projects in progress? that swapping engines isn't trivial?

thanks for your silly concern tho. perhaps work on the way you talk to folks.

I've posted this elsewhere but I'll say it again: I nominate Keijiro Takahashi as the interim CEO. I don’t think there are many who understand unity at a 1:1 mindmeld level like that. Set a new set of goals, get LTS into actual LTS shape, unify the pipelines, restore confidence, save the princess, drive the darkness from the lands and forge a path to profitability that doesn’t alienate unity’s most valuable asset, the community.

UNITY MUST CLEAN HOUSE, NEW BOARD AND CEO. Otherwise we're going to just cycle through this bullshit with different clowns at the wheel.

Vista's fragmentation was one of it's fatal flaws. Microsoft started tripping thinking they were selling fast food not operating systems. Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Enterprise, and Ultimate. JESUS WEPT MAN SIX FUCKING EDITIONS.

Strongly suspect it was Netanyahu thinking "the populace sure does seem to hate me and my far right party of assholes... even military people dislike me. This calls for unity - we need a good old fashion war. But how does one war by oneself?"

Then he saw the calendar: the anniversary of the Yom Kippur war was right around the corner.

The idea that the IDF and Mossad were completely unaware that the 50th anniversary of one of the biggest conflicts in the history of Israeli-Arab relations was coming up and thought "this will be fine, let's reduce the numbers at the gates and on the walls" simply does not pass the sniff test. I don't think it's a conspiracy, I don't think Israel invited the attack or thought it would be a massacre of this magnitude, but Bibi needed something to distract and this sure did work.

Fuck Hamas, anyone who's willing to commit these kinds of war crimes needs to be destroyed. But Israel, when this shit is over, you need to figure some shit out, I do not for a second believe they don't have calendars or history books or that ANYONE has forgotten the Yom Kippur party 50 years ago this week.

Hamas saw Russia and ISIS and said "hold my Nabidh and watch this!"

your summary is excellent but I think you have a typo re: Pakistanis, did you mean Palestinians? it's hard to terrorize the people 6 countries and 3500km to the west.

From 2008 until 2020, roughly 5600 Palestinians and 250 Israelis (including many civilians on both sides) have been killed, and 115 000 Pakistanis and 5600 Israelis have been injured (source: https://www.statista.com/chart/amp/16516/israeli-palestinian-casualties-by-in-gaza-and-the-west-bank/).

Honestly I wonder if Hamas was goaded into this by Russia and Iran. They're following the russian playbook for WARCRIMES obviously.

where it would be yellow for a thousand years, then green again? how far back do you go for authenticity? People have been fighting over this land since 3000bc. Let's just go back 500,000 years and we can all agree it's no one's fucking land.

though you need a Windows machine to upgrade the firmware.

that's a hilarious detail.

uninstalled it today, it's really a gameplay downgrade from cs:go and that wasn't my fav cs by far.

really shitty that they basically took cs:go away too. yeah, I dig the levels and lighting and crosshairs but otherwise the experience, both multiplayer and even bot practice gameplay was pretty meh.

Right? Unreal's microsplat tech is going to boggle minds, unity needs an asset library to rival.

The fuckwits murdered people who fought so hard for Palestinian rights. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/10/world/middleeast/peace-activists-killed-israel.html

Brenda Romero made an experience called Train to visualize this and educate.

yeah I keep waiting for some brilliant game-ready tech to come out of one of those acquisitions like Weta and.... ¯(ツ)_/¯

Yup, it's not like we're unaware they've been unprofitable the entire time and cheap debt isn't a thing anymore. The underhanded nature of backward-changing the TOS and acting like per-install charging wasn't a borked concept from the start are what did it for me. I will never give them my trust much less business until there's a change in leadership across the board.

Yeah, Hamas basically destroyed themselves with this shit. The rest of the world watched their warcriming and said "You know, perhaps these aren't the folks that peace can be reached with, go nuts Israel, bomb the shit out of them."

Who's gonna stand up for Hamas at this point, russia and iran? pfft.. get fucked. Any plausible case for their victimhood got lost when they went down this road.

It's a start, JR being out. But yeah, a new board, and new leadership that actually came from within Unity / the game dev community is needed for devs to have any return to faith in Unity.

I nominate Keijiro Takahashi as the interim CEO. I don't think there are many who understand unity at a 1:1 mindmeld level like that. Set a new set of goals, get LTS into actual LTS shape, unify the pipelines, restore confidence, save the princess, drive the darkness from the lands and forge a path to profitability that doesn't alienate unity's most valuable asset, the community.

there's more flavor there than a 9v battery.

I keep seeing people say "I don't remember the time before I was born, why would I worry about what happens after I die?"

But. I know. I remember all the lives before and know the horrors the future holds. Can we watch Paw Patrol?

DOGS: GUTS!

my hounds will dispatch him. the cat will probably descend with claws if he looks at the wife or kid.
