Yes, because time progressing is having less time. So by turning off time, you have an infinite amount of it.

You can do both of course.

You now have all the time in the world, because time has stopped and you will never age. But since time has stopped, you cannot interact with anyone, or anything in the world ever again.

I tried the demo, gameplay loop seemed promising, but it quickly became apparent that the game has a minimal story and too many "wave horde" sequences where you defend areas instead of moving from objective to objective. That being said, this made me reinstall the old F.E.A.R game again though which has aged surprisingly well.

Oh.. they're on sale! YOINK

At this point, the only thing I keep my account for is to ferry people over here and poke fun at the Pissbaby formerly known as Steve Huffman. Enough of us have emigrated to here now that the salient content is pouring over. And honestly, it's refreshing because everything is pretty much on point with very little spam.

So, so far this year we've got Imgur, who thinks the internet does not run on porn, Twitter who thinks keeping users from their service is a good idea, Reddit who thinks nuking their freely made moderator infrastructure works and Youtube who also thinks randomly banning people who are smart enough to use ad blockers won't have any effect.

At this point, I'm starting to make up increasingly bizarre theories as to why techbros have suddenly all collectively gone insane. The one I came up with this morning was that they all snorted coke of the same hooker's ass which was somehow tainted with a brain eating amoeba.

Some of his best work is Dog Breeds vs Robbers.

Sure, you're more confident, but nobody has any faith in you, so the only one that believes in you is you.

Reddit will go the same way as Digg. The site will remain, but the lurkers will start to migrate once it becomes apparent that the 1% of us that create content have mostly left. Down the line in a few years, we'll all be laughing at the pissbaby formerly known as Steve Huffman and say "Anyone remember THAT clusterfuck? Oh man, he really thought he had it made, talk about fucking yourself over!"

RIF made Reddit bearable to surf on a phone, without it, there's just no point. RIP RIF, you were a fucking amazing app for the tiny investment it cost everyone!

Epic bullshit. Hacking was missing, cyberspace was omitted completely, essentially half the content in a typical Pondsmith game was just not present. And most of the quests in the game just ended abruptly, indicating they were cut short.

CDPR, nobody is buying your bullshit. Just suck it up and move on and BE BETTER. Be like you used to be.

I think it's what we need to further push the envelope further. We're not using the full capability of our hardware that we have today by even a longshot. There's too much fucking overhead everywhere. And I say that as an artist who fucking LOATHES the shitty rendered music paradigm over the modular approach that we used to have. We see it everywhere though, wastefulness in RAM usage, no damn compression in anything natively, no thought on what data structures would result in the lowest footprint on the harddrive, no actual concern for using higher level langugaes over lower ones.

I guess they're following the pissbaby toddler train culture that's been growing in the techbro community as of late. The whole attitude of "We know better than our users, we're going to aggressively monetize the shit out of it and nobody is going to care."

Guess RedHat is going to learn the same thing that so many others have learned before them: Don't piss off your users.
