There is no strategy with them, only blinding hate.

I’m not your boss, but if someone who worked for me said “Sorry boss, couldn’t make it in because I was kicking the shit out of some ICE nazis”, I’d consider that absence excused in a heartbeat.

Vulkan is designed to be closer to the metal than something like DirectX 11 or OpenGL, which makes the API more explicit and difficult to use. This means it requires a great deal more care to use properly. And to complicate matters more, subtle bugs that are very difficult to debug are very easy to introduce.

But, this applies mostly to devs who build their own tech. Most of them these days are just using 3rd party engines like Unity or Unreal, so it comes down to whether or not the person making the game decides to check the box to use Vulkan and just how good those render backends are. Engine developers of 3rd party tech have to build their stuff to be as generic as possible. That’s likely gonna add a lot of bloat that might not be fully optimized for every game developer’s use case.

TLDR: It’s tough and time consuming for someone writing it themselves. And for the ones who aren’t, they’re having to place a lot of trust in a renderer that is probably a black box and might be buggy/slow.

And doing nothing when someone is violently assailing you seems like it would carry consequences of its own. I’m not advocating that we meet violence with murderous retribution, but when diplomacy fails and someone intends to cause you harm no matter what you do, defending yourself is the only reasonable course of action.

The vibes this guy is giving off makes me think he’s the type to walk into a Subway (the sandwich place) strapped with an assault rifle and at least one or two pistols, wearing a bulletproof vest, and drove there in an oversized pickup truck plastered with decals including “Come and take it”, “Don’t tread on me”, and the Punisher logo.

I think someone should set up Stephen Miller with an all-expenses-paid trip to El Salvador. I’m sure they can have a nice bed ready for him at CECOT.

Because the FBI is currently run by some of these idiots.

Now I’m going to call it the Persian Gulf even harder

The fact that anyone would donate money to this is almost poetic proof of your point.

Donny, you had ONE job…

I spend every day wondering if it’ll be my last. The paranoia is always there in the back of my mind, knowing the new Gestapo will eventually come for me, I just don’t know when. In the mean time, I’m preparing myself for that possibility both mentally and physically. My mental health hasn’t been this bad in a long time, but there’s not much I can really do other than try to keep my head above water and hope I make it through this.

I’ll be forever salty it’s come to mean that when it sounds like it should mean when you’re getting really in the zone and finding inner peace coding straight from the heart.

Sure would be a shame if this database was not properly secured and some anonymous internet user happened to login and mess with the data.

Paying another nation to incarcerate someone indefinitely without due process is beyond fucked up. It’s almost impossible to believe that’s our current reality. That’s the sort of thing that I feel the founders of our country would throw a revolution over.

If the rule of law no longer means anything, there’s really no incentive to go peacefully when the gestapo comes for us. Food for thought.

I imagine fellow nazis would be quite proud to.

Call me crazy, but I feel like this is precisely the thing we should be rioting over. This is absolutely not ok.

It’s Florida, so it’s probably a little of both.

ICE is perfectly happy to ignore the law just as Fuhrer Trump has instructed, so they shouldn’t get to enjoy the law’s protections anymore. I’d love nothing more than to see the people storm ICE facilities, free the prisoners, and burn those places to the ground.

With all the anti-trans bathroom bills around the country, I’d be perfectly fine designating the desks of all Republican officials as gender neutral bathrooms.
