For ladders, yes. But take Horizon Forbidden West for example. Most rocks and cliff faces are climbable, but you can’t tell by just looking at them. You have to use your focus, their version of yellow paint, to see where you can and can’t go.

I find the whole yellow paint argument to be stupid. Back in the day, level design was so spartan, that if you saw a ladder, you could reasonably infer that you could climb the ladder. Nowadays, level design has become so rich in detail that you need a way to differentiate between objects you can interact with and objects that are just placed for fluff.

One idea I’ve seen floated was a certificate-based authentication. Providers that know your age by design, such as banks, could hand out certificates in bulk. That way, only those institutions would know that you have received certificates, but they can’t tell for what exactly. Source: https://ec.social-network.europa.eu/@EUCommission/114852402217569321

Yes they are. But as a German citizen you can still have your property be pixelated.

Google actually gave up mapping Germany in street view, because anyone could ask for their property to be censored. It was just too much hassle. Sadly since then, the German public, much like the rest of the western world, has been pacified by Big Tech, so Google started mapping again.

The vanity fair photos are still the best worst photos of the current admin.

Forbidden West doesn’t require a PSN account as far as I’m aware. At least I didn’t have to create one.

The year of the Linux desktop is here. Brought to you by astronomical hardware prices.

Watch him mandate that all intercontinental flights must go through DJT.

Your best bet, and that is tiny, but is still there, is to fill the Democratic party with Bernie Sanders-types and the like. AOC may run for president. She probably won’t win, but she is a more progressive candidate than your typical centrist democrat. And it all started with her getting elected in New York. Talarico vs Crockett is the next opportunity to elect a more progressive candidate with Talarico.

I don’t know more than what the wiki article linked to. It says UBlock blocks it. It doesn’t say any more than that.

Archive.today apparently hijacks visitor’s browsers to DDoS a blog that tried to uncover the identity of the archive’s admin. UBlock helps to stop that script.

Wait, so he doesn’t just want his name plastered everywhere, he also wants to collect royalities for the usage of his name? I must commend him for being this brazenly corrupt. It’s a good litmus test for Democrats. If they refuse to prosecute Trump like the traitor that he is, they are not up to the task of pushing back MAGA, returning sanity to the US and healing the nation.

And 100% of the time it will agree with the user. So if they ever asked “Are you sure this isn’t DEI?”, it would agree with them.

If anything, getting the logs from that server would be interesting, to see if Lemmy’s long-term stability can be improved.

Is this real? I can’t tell anymore. Everyone is giving Trump trophies to get favors from him.

For Kids. From Kids.

BMW, in lieu developing electric cars that can compete with chinese brands, has found a different way of binding its customers to the brand…

Yes, Avatar is critized for just retreading the Pocahontas storyline. But it’s a story after all, a bit of narratization is needed. As for the fact that they need the ‘big strong human to protect them’, yes, that is woven into the story too. Jake has both insider knowledge and intel. He not only knows what the human military contractor is going to do, he also knows the motivations behind their action, how far they are willing to go and what it will take to stop them. As such, his input is crucial to rally the tribes and get nature on his side. Only with the help of Grace’s memories is he able to rally Eywa to their side.

But the military doesn’t care. Jake is still in a wheelchair at the start of the movie. Only by accepting a highly dangerous mission, infiltration, is he given the promise of having his old legs restored. And he is only given this job, because his brother passed away and left the Na’vi clone behind. So they are not offering this to any crippled army veteran. And yes, there are some good apples in the military. They turn on the military.
