In fact you could have told me she was all CGI and I would have believed it. Models look weird.

the internet has created the easiest way in human history to take money from people we are living in a time where all of this is so loving new, it is hard to even explain without touching a shitload of subjects from human psychology, game theory, addiction, con artists, and more by ultimately it comes down to something that's been said for almost 4,000 years "If it is too good to be true, it probably is."

DapperDon posted:My girlfriends mother was the first woman computer admin in the Pentagon back in the late 60's shattering a lot of those stereotypes. She also just went toe to toe with cancer and beat the poo poo out of it too. That woman has nothing but middle fingers to people that say she can't do something. That's cool as gently caress. My grandmother used to do computer work in the early 60's as well for the DoD, just not at the Pentagon. Whenever she brings it up she'll bitch about how huge and noisy they were to deal with. Of course. It's nice when someone drops a post like this that just reaffirms the point that we've been discussing over the last few hours about women in computer science.

She was already getting poo poo from former sota faithful because she "led them astray" and "tempted" them the amount of sexist vitriol spit at her was already alarming this job should be a completely hard pass for her like supposedly she's dating someone there and the whole thing is just going to loving explode when they realize she's LGBTQ

Scruffpuff posted:Joke's on them - according to Chris Roberts, they're doing everything backwards. The correct order is: Interesting how in Chris' way the transition trigger to proceed to the next step is "and if you start to lose your crowd then..." or "if you did this and you still haven't got a game then try to..." rather than "and if you completed the current step successfully then you are closer to making a game and you can proceed to...".

I tried playing Ultima 9 like six or seven times over maybe three years or so, and each and every attempt ended in me beeing stuck due to various bugs (sometimes in geometry, most of the times because main quests were broken....IIRC once I even got stuck in the very first quest where you craft your character by responding to questions and taking some actions). Was there actually a way to play through Ultima 9? I remember that most people I talked about it had the same experience. Maybe it was those drat german gpu drivers
