  • I don’t know if it’s controversial, really. More so, I think most people are ok with Israel and Palestine both existing as states, and those who support Palestine don’t necessarily want Israel to cease to exist, they just want Israel to not try to blow up Palestine.

    I realize he said only “many of them do not” and I haven’t heard the statement in French so I can’t speak beyond that context, but the statement as is gives me the vibe that he’s suggesting something a little more than “some people.” Maybe it’s just the months of pro-Palestine protests getting repeatedly vilified by politicians and the media that’s causing me to read into this more than was put out there.

    In short, I’m just getting dirty vibes from the statement.





  • What games should do is tell you the impact that settings have on performance. Just a text blurb that mentions how significantly you can expect a setting to matter. I’ve seen it in a few games where some settings are marked with something like heavy performance penalty but it would be nice for more things to be labeled.

    Looking at something like the task manager will tell you your CPU or GPU is maxed out, but how do you know what to change to correct this? Can you just change a few barely-noticeable settings, or are you expected to replace your CPU? If the recommended is CPU X, then why is my CPU Y maxed out? If I exceed the recommended build, why is my performance so bad?

    Often the recommended build is not enough to max out graphics at reasonable framerates, for example.
