The reptilian conspiracy theory can be considered at least antisemitism-adjacent, which makes its popularity with respect to Zuckerberg… interesting.

You cannot just make it Smart iTraffic 3D without removing the major challenge from the game. Fixing some bugs and not having traffic that dumb like in the 1st game would be appreciated though.
AFAIK the way it worked in the first game, the pathfinding was a simple A* algorithm that used only the length & speed limit of each link in the network to determine the shortest path. The way this video makes it sound, travel time will be the most significant factor, which means traffic will make a difference in the pathfinding. Then they’re also introducing factors related to the individual cim’s need for parking, comfort, and risk-taking. It should be a lot more realistic and just as challenging, without the ridiculous situations where traffic would come to a complete standstill because everyone is taking the same route even though there are hundreds of alternative side streets to take.
As someone who’s done some advanced coursework in traffic engineering, I’m pumped.
So cims choose a route based on multiple criteria, now. That’s how transportation network analysis is done IRL. AND they can turn around and reroute in the middle of a trip. Super cool.
Also there’s lead in perovskite! This stuff is sounding better by the minute.
That all happened on Windows, too. I don’t know how they let it go on like that for so long.
But they did not go back and add things they promised but didn’t deliver on.
Not yet, anyway. There are a lot of improvements coming with the DLC, supposedly. The police overhaul on its own has the potential to add tons of replayability. Getting a wanted level & running from the cops was like 90% of my GTA IV time.
I’m one of those game tourists who hardly ever finishes anything. I don’t have enough time to game so I’ll just drop a game if I’m not really into. Cyberpunk was one of the few games I’ve finished in recent years.
I guess I never really thought of it that way, but I’m in the same boat. I even have trouble finishing games I really enjoy, like Outer Worlds. Cruised straight through Cyberpunk though. The quickhack + sniper gameplay was endlessly satisfying for me.
Definitely appears that way, towards the end of the teaser there’s a graphic showing what appear to be spheres of influence/territory similar to Stellaris or any other 4X game.
Interesting quote from the article… I’m certainly of the opinion that the fediverse is the way to go, but I’ve seen misgivings on lemmy about the complexity of the multiple servers. Maybe it’s just an issue of unfamiliarity? Or is it truly too complicated? It doesn’t seem that Byzantine to me, but then I do have a background in IT.
It started in October with a wave of defections to Mastodon, an open source, ad-free, decentralized community that was hosted on an archipelago of independent servers. For the briefest of moments, everyone seemed to agree that this brainy successor was destined to save social media. But the enthusiasm quickly waned as people struggled to navigate the platform’s sprawling “Fediverse,” and the Twitter exodus flowed elsewhere. Media obsessives gravitated toward Post, a news-heavy platform founded by Noam Bardin, the former CEO of Waze. “Mastodon is complicated and unsatisfying,” tweeted Kelda Roys, a Democratic state senator in Wisconsin. “Post could be a winner if there were a critical mass there.”
Can’t wait to hear what the dealership has to say when I ask them how to access my telematics data.
I could see using this as a replacement for a monitor, keyboard & mouse. The resolution is there unlike in other VR headsets to date, and the eye tracking and other controls seem slick. The price tag is high, but considering the tech in this thing, understandable.
Of course comparisons to the iPhone abound, but the iPhone launched as sort of a “better Blackberry” at a starting price of $500. The world was more than ready for it, and Apple’s timing was perfect. I’m not sure you can say the same for XR.
As a fellow Jew, I agree, but it’s worth noting. I wouldn’t ever call someone an antisemite for referring to someone as a lizard-person, because at this point no one intends it that way. I have a friend who’s pretty receptive to social justice issues and mentioned it to her recently just as an interesting point of conversation.
