The only SMS I’ve gotten in the last 5 years are the double authentication ones. WhatsApp is the default way of texting in many countries. Outside of the US, when you ask people to stop using WhatsApp, chances are you are asking them to give up texting entirely. Which you must realize is complicated to say the least
Almost all jobs in which you have to interact with people, so most of them. I work in an office and i need it to communicate with clients, with my boss or coworkers, or with a government agency. You have to understand that WhatsApp is ubiquitous outside of the US. Here we never got free SMS, so WhatsApp became the default way of texting. Even people on iphones use WhatsApp here
When everybody uses WhatsApp to communicate, which is a meta service, it’s a bit complicated to cut off communication with literally everybody in your country (work, friends, businesses) just to not use a service. It’s disingenuous to expect this without some sort of change within the current status quo. And this is coming from someone who doesn’t use any of their other platforms but has to use WhatsApp, because that’s literally the only choice
I’ve been playing the AC franchise lately, and I can’t help it but think how cool would be one set during the bronze age collapse. They could even tie it together with origins and odyssey.
I agree with you, but let’s try to not treat massive organizations as a single being. I’m sure even there some people were not ok with how pervasive Russian talking points were there. But then again, maybe I’m being naive.
I love this! Using screens we display 3D environments on a 2D surface. This is displaying a 3D environment on a 3D projection. I wonder how would you go about displaying a 4D environment in this 3D projection. The difference in dimensions would be akin to our conventional 3D in 2D setup, so I’d be intrigued in the comparisons we could draw from projecting 4D in 3D.
Infallible logic. Have you considered becoming president?
What he is trying to say is: is that due to a loss of neuroplasticity or is it more along the line of older children and adults learning a second language usually aren’t deep in the same level of immersion. I agree with him that it’s probably somewhere in the middle
Amazing game!! If you like the genre, you should play this
It’s always the classic not-rule to take-away-your-children slippery slope, they always warned us of that in school
Was thinking exactly the same thing lol
Well obviously his time in prison was the result of a political witchhunt orquestrated by the radical left /s
I really liked season 1, so I’m looking forward to the second
Classic Diogenes. I’m proud to announce that I, like Diogenes, also don’t own a house.
Everybody knows Americans in the ancient era should focus on scouting its home continent so you can plan and maximise the manifest destiny modifier
He’s saying that the only corporations with the fighting power to take on legal battles will end up being the big ones. So we may end up in a situation where AI will only be in the hands of the mega wealthy, instead of in the hands of regular people.
Roberts everywhere sending accidental dick pics
Edit: had a brain fart, meant Richards
You keep referencing the community as if I wasn’t aware. I made a comment yesterday here in this very thread referencing it, so I clearly know this is a place for unpopular opinions, that’s why I’m debating in good faith and that’s why I said in my previous comment it was ironic.
But no, please re-read what I said, that you started the post with an assumption, and you presented it as fact. That’s not debatable, you stated that games aren’t supposed to be realistic. You didn’t back that up with an argument, you just repeated how you think games should be perceived and then proceeded to trash a popular franchise as an example.
Like I said, I mean no animosity towards you. But I chimed in literally because this community invites to debate
I expressed my counter argument in my first comment. You then replied with a non-answer, trying to justify your lack of argument with the community name.
And let me be clear, I’m not criticizing you, I’m criticizing your debating. You started the original post making an assumption and stating it as fact while failing to provide a compelling argument to back it up, so when people inevitably try to discuss it, you did hide behind the curtain of ‘it’s my opinion, I’m not harming anyone’. Which makes it the more ironic when you brought to attention the community name in response to me calling you out.
Because not everywhere works exactly like the US? Besides the point, if you work at a McDonald’s, they are not going to give you a phone so you can text your manager. If you don’t have a means of communication you are not getting the job.
