A truly open world, with no boundaries at a scale never attempted before. A massively varied and dense planet filled with immersive biomes, unique enemies and valuable resources to discover.
uhhhhhhhhhhhh about that
No dedicated servers yet.
EDIT: dedicated server files have now been released.
EDIT2: They changed the terms of self hosting. It’s crap. I’m getting a refund.
…the construction project was appropriated during the prior administration and the law requires the government to use the funds, with an announcement made earlier in the year. "We have repeatedly asked Congress to rescind this money but it has not done so and we are compelled to follow the law,"…

Some of those comments are vile. Oh, foxnews… makes sense.
Hopefully being a community thing and not a corporate thing will help. I think people will be less likely to steal, and more likely to rat someone out for stealing.
Shit, seems like we actually should have just given everyone a bit of money every other week instead of giving ‘loans’ to business owners and hope they didn’t just pocket it… whodathunkit
It’s a gateway for stupider things.
He was facing additional punishment after returning to the US.
Bachelors in Computer Science… Never made the connection.
It’s software that lives in the hardware. It provides low-level control and functionality specific to that device. It runs on the hardware itself, not the CPU of the computer.
For example, a hard drive. We don’t want the OS to have to know how to interact with every type of hard drive. Seagate does things differently than Western Digital, an SSD works very different than a hard drive, etc… The OS sends the same commands to all types of hard drives, but each hard drive needs to know how to actually comply with the commands. If the OS is asking for a dozen different files all over the drive, it would be dumb to try and read them all at the same time. The OS doesn’t really know where they are on the spinning disk, but the drive does. Firmware written specifically for the device can do a much better job planing how to fetch the data so the read head doesn’t need to go back and forth a bunch of times, but instead make one good pass fetching all the data as it comes to it.
Hope that helps.
The procedural generation stuff looks amazing. It’s really nice that they are tackling it and making it available to smaller devs.
The ice isn’t to cool the water, the ice is to reflect most of the incoming light.
Sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and helps moderate global climate. Sea ice has a much brighter surface compared to many other Earth surfaces, particularly the surrounding ocean. The darker ocean reflects only 6 percent of the sun’s energy and absorbs the rest, while sea ice reflects 50 to 70 percent of the incoming energy.

For me it was all the screaming.
They’re not deep thinkers…
