I watched my dad slowly starve to death from cancer cigarettes gave him, so no, cigarettes don't "rule".

I'm not sure how it worked, all I know is that it was real time and would react to player models, enemies or other things that would move in unpredictable ways, but only for specific light sources.
I've seen the effect in other places, though I guess technically they can stick that torch wherever they want as you explore.
Skyrim has "ray traced" shadows in certain places and works great. I was in a cave once and hiding behind a cliff. An enemy was wandering around the next room and I was able to use the shadow cast on him by a torch to observe his movements without having his actual body in my field of view.
All this modern RT nonsense does is make things look slightly better than screen space reflections and tank performance.
If it is from Meta assume it's compromised.
Ya know they make a valid point. Part of the learning experience growing up and going to school in the 90s and early 00s was figuring out how to bypass the school's restrictions with proxies, or how to load Quake 2 onto every computer in the district so we could sneak and have little impromptu LAN parties, etc. Hell, one of us got caught hacking into the student records portal to change his grades and after he graduated they hired the kid to work in the IT department. He works for a local ISP now.
Nowadays they don't know how to use a computer, they just know how to click icons and get apps from sanctioned app stores.
Because it's all horseshit?
I got it from F-Droid for free.
Concersations.im. It's my backup because it supports OMEMO and OpenPGP.
Besides that, Element (Matrix). I use it for its public rooms.
If they're gonna go after people who mutilate children they need to start by banning circumcision.
So I'm re-ripping my DVD copy of MAS*H to re-encode to a new codec, correct some mistakes I made with my original rip, etc. For example, I noticed that, since this was one of the earlier shows I ripped, I completely missed the fact that there's a second "No laugh track" English audio track that I didn't rip the first time around.
Anyway, these discs have been out in my shed for a number of years now and I have noticed a few of them have started de-laminating in spots. This one in particular, disc 1 of season 4, failed to read once so I pulled it out, cleaned it good and put it back in. It has one large bubble between the layers that isn't apparent on the label side so I don't think it's anything to do with the label getting damp or anything. There's also a wide band of what appear to be very tiny little micro bubbles in a complete circle around the disc. If it doesn't get destroyed in the compression, you can see them in the lower portion of the photo. After letting it warm up and cleaning it a bit I tried again and on the second try it slowed down and thrashed around for a few moments when it got to that same section, dropping into kB/s read speeds, but eventually got past it and succeeded in making the ISO.
I guess I'm going to have to make space to keep complete ISOs of shows and movies I particularly like, like this one. Man, those Bluray images are ridiculous though.
Facebook is a cesspool. I run a small "tech news and tips" page that local friends/family follow and where I'll post little tidbits. Today I made a post about "compartmentalizing" your online life and I didn't think and included the word "hack" in the post. It's just comment after comment of crap like this.

Nope, no mods. I've noticed certain braziers will have the effect in barrows and such.
