Epstein + Bobby Kotick (CEO of Activision Blizzard - the company behind Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, Candy Crush, Diablo, Overwatch) in leaked 2013 emails:
“How do we teach kids to spend money for the rest of their lives as early as possible?”
Answer: microtransactions in Call of Duty + sexy rewards + guns + virtual items.
Because “education through games is for losers” - we need to hook them on constant paying.
Kotick’s name appears over 300 times in Epstein’s files.
This isn’t a conspiracy theory. These are their own words.
And look around - that’s exactly what kids’ gaming looks like today.

Folks, Overwatch just doubled its previous CCU record by simply removing 2 from the noscript! It's amazing!

Quite a lot of failure of freedom began when Europe lost Nokia (and Symbian OS and their Linux forks, currently in-use by Russia only). Systems that were under real European control. When Canadian BlackBerry failed. When Philips and Siemens turned from inventors into patent-owning houses. ASML is the last straw of European inventions.
All Operating Systems are under solitary control now, all communications are. It's all way too centralized. China can do some stuff by ignoring the rules, but even they barely able to stand against this centralization.
We need more self-hosted stuff, we need to take out our belongings from the cloud. Just saying!

Yes, in a few months NVIDIA users will get this level of performance in Blender Cycles, but:
- No volumetrics support
- Better works with static objects
- Subsurface Scattering has to be static

Blender's new real-time denoiser just blew my mind!
Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) Ray Reconstruction for Blender is finally possible to build and run on NVIDIA GPUs! In this video I'm testing various scenes and how they can be denoised with DLSS in Blender.

If you thought that Henry Cavill was odd during the previous season of The Witcher Series, you haven't yet seen his role in Red Riding Hood (2006).
The movie is so oddly bad, it's almost as cringy as The Room.

Duke Nukem 3D was released 30 years ago (January 29, 1996). I still remember how we were playing it on the local network in school. The game has:
- Memorable campaign
- PvP and PvE multiplayer
- Jetpacks
- Downsizing gun
- Freezing gun
- Reflective mirrors
And many more 😎
PS. Don't trust the version on Steam, it's broken. And they took down the old one.
