All this also doesn't take into account how creators gets paid.

It's a big system, with enough moving parts that I understand the ad/pay model existing. I just wish they weren't such prices about how they choose to operate it sometimes.

It does ruin most things doesn't it? 😮‍💨

😆 And here I was think I wasn't giving anyone any credit. I just proclaimed none of us could be trusted!

I think the fundamental problem with the AR glasses is something that can't be overcome.

I think its easy to see the utility to owning a pair of glasses that look good and provide real time information as desired for what you are looking at or hearing.

HOWEVER, I think very few people will want the product these co.panies will make. This will be a method to throw ads literally in front of your eyeballs. Enshitification is too big of a thing now and so any new product is tainted by the expectation it will rapidly turn to garbage at a high price to you.

Also, while we may think we can be trusted, we dont trust anyone else having all that info, I dont like the obvious privacy implications that these can present. Filming with them is also terrifying.

I was getting a stable 30fps on mid settings. Having played at home at much higher resolution, I see you lose a lot, but its still very playable.

It plays well on the steam deck day 1 as well, if that matters to anyone here. I played the first 2 hours on my deck from work with no issues.

Shaders took like 10 minutes but the rest of the load times were all fine.

You know what... that math checks out. Approved!

Oh then read the Wikipedia page you referenced. It actually gives examples supporting my statement.

And once again, I am not saying it isn't racist today or that people weren't racist back then or that the word is OK today or any of the other weird things people keep acting like I said.

I lost my patience with people being willfully ignorant a while ago. I just thought it was an interesting moment in time to see how language evolved. Not terribly dissimilar to many other terms people used to use that later morphed into slurs.

I'm not either. But there's a difference between isn't and wasn't. But again, you don't care. I'm still not defending racism or racists or racists using the term as a slur later. Ive been super clear. I was just providing historical context.

"at the world's inception" should have clued you in on the jest...

I just disagree. We are equally dense at worst. I've already expressed people were racist and had slurs that they used. Im not ignoring that or unaware of it or trying to gloss over that. This just wasn't one of them for a long stretch of time.

You won't believe it because you just don't believe it. That's you being dense. You refuse to accept the reality I've witnessed. Terms weren't used with equal intent globally throughout history. How a term was used in Caldwell Idaho in 1930 is not how it was used in Pennsylvania at the same time, despite them both being America and the people involved all being American.
