My instinct is to lurk even in this thread...

15 years ago, my taekwondo instructor punched a mugger in the chest only once, and the man's rib broke and stabbed his heart and then he died. My instructor spent spent 2 or 3 years of jailtime for the crime "unintentionally killing".

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Flu, mosquito, or birth, statistically.

I'm not saying that those deals are bad, but we are still talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars, where a sim setups is 30k or 40k at most.

Math is crying on the corner...

Those companies are still fucking filthy rich though.

Filibuster!

I am thinking about it the other way around. Most people consider vacations as a chance to get rest, because they are working starting 5 in the morning for the rest of the year.

Well that is a healthy family for sure

I wouldn't call these RPGs though :( I love the first two, but they are Sandboxes without a campaign and right now I'd kill to have something like Mass Effect. Let's wait for Squadron 42...

No, I'm sure it's pronounced as jpej.

I mean, I hope you get rich mate! Yeah I understand your point, and I am also definitely happy that affordable aviation is not a multimillionaire only dream. Though still those simulations are maybe 5 percent of the costs we are talking, yet :(

Eternity. For me, this app is the only one without significant problems.

Well, no. It should have been an answer before a fuck ton of innocent people died.

Just reading gorogoro made me hungry...

So unless you are a flat earther, you cannot complain?

T minus 1 should be equal to S, right?

I don't think those games AAA. Baldur's Gate 3 is in the border between being AA and AAA, but Train Sim World can't have that much of a development cost, no?

Honestly I feel like for small data analysis, simple regressions etc., AI is game changer.

Not for the reasons you might think. As a social scientist, my biggest advantage in postdoc applications was my programming capabilities. Now, my PIs think that they don't matter. I have difficulties explaining to them why a vibe coder shouldn't do science but it really is impossible for some people...
