Should I wait for a Nvidia 5090 or buy (and hide!) a 4090 now before a GPU-eating AGI is summoned, or more likely, NGO/associated state actors/alignment (((researchers))) make purchasing impossible? Currently on a 1060 6GB.

I am curious what proposition, overt or covert, you take the depiction of interracial or LGBT families to be propaganda for.




Miscegenation.

I don’t believe that complete mongrelization of the lightcone is an inevitability, or even likely. The motivation to present the game with a striking (vitiligo anyone?) medley of brown and black character races, and mostly ugly regardless of race, is to pay tribute to the Current Year (not 2330!) preoccupation with DEI. I reject that. As far as I know, not having played it, it is not to bring forth some worthwhile narrative exploring ethnic strife of some afrofuturistic faction causing a planetary-scale South African catastrophe - it’s window dressing and it’s not my window dressing.


And my conspicuous rejection (see Nexus Mods preemptively banning the pronoun mods) makes my enemies upset and anxious, and I want to maximize this.


Edit: I just realized that a character designer for Bethesda is some Brazilian mutt, gloating about his mystery meat creations in Starfield. Go figure.


Edit2: looks like possibly more ESG influence?




In order to understand why Starfield turned out so awful, and to show how bad AAA gaming has become, we have to look at the place developers ironically least expect us to check: The end credits. Starfield's takes over 45 minutes, and this is because despite Bethesda having hundreds of employees, a laundry list of voice actors, support from ZeniMax and backing from Xbox, they have nonetheless outsourced the game to - and this is not an exaggeration - 27 global studios, who do everything from sound design to VFX to modeling and so on. It's a total racket, worse than any of Todd's lies
• (You Tube] Starfield Credits 4K (embed) [Embed]
In the order in which they are shown in the credits, we have: Sonic Boom Sound, JSR Post, Iron Galaxy, The Multiplayer Group, Spera Soft, Snowed In Studios, GameSim, The Forge, Nobody Studios Undertone FX, Wardog. Sparx*, Scyth Games, Rouge MoCap, RedHot, Kaptured Motions Inc., Airship Interactive, Lakshya Digital, NXA Studios, Goodbye Kansas, GL33k, FuryLion, Cubic Motion, Cloud Mark, M aka Original Force, WIlF aka Mindwalk Studios. You probably picked up on the Chinese ones, but these companies operate everywhere from Ukraine to Vietnam to India About half of these companies are owned by Keywords Studios, a shady as fuck company using investment dollars and ESG points to help give what is effectively sweatshop labor to AAA developers They work with literally everyone. EA, Tencent, Capcom, Bamco, ActiBlizzard and of course Bethesda. Remember the whole rigamarole about crunch? Well, look at this

Will you ever permit LLMs to populate content surrounding the bare links if it were to come back?

Rules like boo outgroup or regulations against racism should not make exceptions for those promoting a jewish grievance against european societies either.




Should TheMotte add a rule against advancing any form of slave morality in general?

I hear Putin and the Russian oligarchs envy the life of the Kims and their generals in Pyeongyang.




Where/how did you hear this, and why would they be envious? Haven't they, prior to the invasion, maintained more trade with the west than NK?
