In the UK we all (generally) read 24 hour but speak in 12 hour. So we see 15:00 but say 3. Only military peeps talk on 24, and it can sound weird, but people can easily understand them as long as they can parse the who “-hundred” thing (15:00 being fifteen-hundred)

Plus the lorries and HGVs have a actual purpose and use, whereas 95% of all SUVs could be replaced by a smaller car with their owner still being able to do what they need to do.

I understand what you’re getting at, but I would partially counter with that losing parties may instead weigh their policy decisions more towards the people they know will vote. Rather than potentially wasting time catering for those that have shown that in the end they may not vote at all. I would wager (on top of many other factors) this could be why many countries’ historically left leaning parties have been moving more and more towards the centre as time goes on. Labour in the UK are a prime example.
I’m talking more generally, the world is bigger than just America. You know what I meant.
If one didn’t support the opposition, then they’re implicitly in support of who ends up in power.
Sadly our votes are one of the few things we have as normies that give us power, what you do and don’t do with it is important. Even if in your jurisdiction you see both (or more) candidates as being bad, there is always a lesser evil.
What’s the guy’s skin colour got to do with it?
And in his first film, probably more so too

3·10 days agoThe Dreamcast was probably the biggest exploration into the internet before modern consoles. Heck even the megadrive had a gamepass like service (Sega Channel) that would have a rotating line up of games, some even being exclusive to the service

MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•Owlcat is using generative AI for The Expanse Osiris Reborn, but the final game will be "100% human made"English
1·17 days agoMy point is more it should be on a separate testing branch if used so it can’t accidentally be left in the final product

4·17 days agoYeah that’s the thing, placeholder textures need to be obviously placeholder so they don’t get forgotten about. Using ai for something that’s approximate to what it should be is stupid in that regards. You’re just making your job harder at the end of the day.
The only time I can think of it being worthwhile is if you need to show off progress with a vertical slice, for an investment round or whatever, but you don’t have all of the required textures sorted yet. But these changes should be done on a separate branch so they’re not a part of the main development of the game so the above can’t happen .
MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•There's nothing 'euro' about 'eurojank,' says Stalker devEnglish
7·17 days agoI think the term stuck in the same east “eurogames” i as a genre n board games did even though it’s definition no longer has anything to do with is origin. Same with “eurobeat” in music, whose averaged origin is probably Japan nowadays, but the term is still there, firmly in place.

1·17 days agoI imagine the movie might borrow a lot of beats from that movie so for “corporate synergy” it would make sense that they would remake that

That’ll do pig

Bad Batch is a great one too
