I think you're right, but this is usually a developer skill issue. This UE developer thread was really useful in understanding the 'why' of ugly motion blur for me. https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/correct-motion-blur-values-to-use/131392

Between the demand to install an app we are prohibited from even "decipher"ing and the theft of content, I don't think this service is anything I want to be a part of. I thought they were trying to be something better.
The contract language that informed my opinion follows.

If I pushed an albatross down a well and attached a crab to it to harrass it on the way down it would also fall, despite being a fantastic winged flier.
Imagine them with wings ill suited to vertical flight and hovering, but very fast in the sky while soaring, and with the endurance to keep going for hours.
It's my headcannon, but I give Gandalf points for forcing the fighter jet into a helicopter arena.
(The choice between a "daemon in the sheets" or "cronD in your log folder" joke is left as an exercise for the reader.)
I saw Nick Cutter and wanted to ask this as well. The Troop was such a fantastic book with vile description and really left an impression on me. Fuck you Shelley.
Can someone explain the fourth panel? What's the significance of the big red X and why is the background a pair of idiot knife ears making out in that wooden hellscape? I know it's nauseating to look at their weird bald faces for too long but I'd appreciate the help. Probably some human nonsense.
There's also going to be a stop motion tribute for OtGW released by the folks who make Wallace and Gromit on november third!
If you still have that save file, you might consider tasteful use of an editor to give yourself a chance. If not though I'm sorry to hear that. BG1/2 were a huge part of my childhood and my longtime favorite villain came from the second.
she viewed all of her peers as children since she felt she had more lived experience which is fine
That's not fine. Her lived experience doesn't seem to be translating to maturity at a rate worth bragging about whether the claim is true or not. The foundation of any healthy relationship is respect. I think that whether you want to confront anyone about these events or not, you would benefit from seeking out mutually respectful relationships.
Consider whether her actions can really be caused by a fault of yours if she belittles almost everyone in the same way.
So you took the literal scenario (woman in wheelchair gets insulting comment asking if her disability affects her sexually) and inverted it so that the insultor is disadvantaged against a hypothetical celebrity who causes them social harm. Why? Autism isn't a fucking pallisade and it shouldn't be used to counter attack legitimate points. You're the one doing damage to perceptions of autistic people. Please stop.
Black hat and Defcon just ended and I'll share my impression from LLM related talks given there. Microsoft VPs charged additional money to CISOs attending the summit talking about how AI will disrupt and be the future and blah blah magical thinking.
Meanwhile Microsoft engineers and others said things like "this is logarithmic regression for people who are bad at math, and is best for cases where 75% accuracy is good enough. Try to break use cases into as many steps as possible and keep the LLM away from any automation that could have any consequences. These systems have no separation between the control plane and user input, which is re-exposing us to problems that were solved 15 years ago."
I think there are some neat possibilities that are lost in marketing hype as venture capitalist anger grows that they might have been scammed by yet another hammer in search of nails.
The campaigns my players consistently voice as their favorites are ones where I created an overarching plot, and then incorporated their backstories as significant and impactful portions of that plot. Being the sole input for character motivations for a story (as with a book) makes it easier to end up with a coherent vision and story, but more difficult because of the amount of content you're responsible for. Conversely a good DM can offload work to players and end up with a result that everyone is personally invested in.
I will say though that some DMs end up writing thousands of pages over the course of years spent in an ongoing campaign and might cry at your characterization.
It's definitely POSSIBLE to run a campaign without ever writing a page, but good luck when your characters get attached to an NPC you forgot about if improvisation isn't your forte.
