    Based on a true story
  • Technically yes, because half of all privately owned guns in the US are owned by 3% of people according to this CNN article. So while there are more guns than people in the US, legislation to regulate them would mostly affect a minority of the population.

    That being said, you're right that a lot of the problem with gun violence has to do with external factors such as poverty and extreme nationalism. An overwhelming majority of mass shooters are male and less overwhelmingly white which hints at a problem more to do with the environments they are raised or live in. If the problem was stricly gun access, we should expect more mass shootings to have been committed by women. In addition, half of all mass shootings in the US have occured since 2000, a third of which since 2010.

    The rise of mass shootings seem to coincide with the rise of more general nationalist violence moreso than increased gun access, however more guns are being manufactured now than ever. I think the problem that needs addressed more is the public perception and marketing around guns and gun culture, because the past couple decades have seen people own guns more for the "tough guy" fake masculinity reasons rather than actual practicality. For further evidence to back myself up, pickup truck sales have risen in a similar way. Pickup trucks are marketed in almost the same way minus the whole potentially killing people part, not that they haven't also been used in mass violence though.

    A lot of gun regulation tends to target poor people too, intentionally or not. Tax stamps, fees and mandatory wait times assume someone has the money and ability to take time off to acquire a gun, and wealthy people (the ones who already own most guns) have both. Making it harder for poor people, who are disproportionately black, to arm themselves in a time where racist violence is hitting record highs and stories about police brutality hit front pages every week at least, is unfair.

    GODOT ussage this week
  • To be fair, the only reason Godot can't port to consoles as easily as Unity is for licensing reasons. Console manufacturers don't want their console build code released as open-source under MIT like Godot is, so that's all relegated to third-party services/plugins

    GODOT ussage this week
    1. Yes, not a great as Unity but it's still pretty good especially after they switched to Vulkan over OpenGL. VR performance still could use some work though.
    2. Yes, PBR materials are fully supported. Actually one of the earlier things in 3D that was implemented, and then imoroved
    3. Yes, now I don't know if HAVOK has a Godot plugin but there is a Jolt physics plugin that's designed to be plug-and-play, with a few exceptions (it doesn't suppory soft bodies afaik)

    Windows 11
  • 7 downvotes but I don't get where you're wrong. Maybe the fact that Windows 11 requires TPM and some other security features? But the rest of the OS pretty much went down in terms of quality.

  • Huh. Yeah I'm not getting them either, and after looking into my other feeds that do have images it looks like those are either video preview images or links to articles, so I guess it doesn't support native reddit image uploads maybe?

    This VR Cycle may take more time than expected

    skarredghost.com Editorial: This VR cycle may take more time than expected

    We are in a new cycle of XR, but this will take more time than expected to grow and make us go out from the quicksands we are currently in

    Pretty good write-up I think of how the industry is moving into more AR-focused stuff and that it's probably gonna be far slower than the big leaps that the Vive and Quest headsets did
