It doesn’t matter if it’s actually very safe to do, it’s the fact that many women have been and are attacked that way so women will always have that fear in the back of their mind. Trying to deny this is going against basic human psychology and behaviour.

You only need to look at the current “man or bear” discussion to see how wrong you are.

Women don’t generally like riding bikes home after dark through dimly lit streets and parks etc. Pretty universal thing.

So many reasons. Not everyone lives close enough to the city. Not everyone wants to ride a bike. Not everyone has showers available at their work. Not everyone would feel safe riding a bike, especially women. Then there's the big one - the weather.

Did you see their now ex ceo in there?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

One of the employees punched him in the face

Just for context - this is what his side of the story is, it's not "fact" yet.

at no extra wholesale cost to retailers.

And at no extra cost to customers, right? Right?

CEO doesn’t make decisions about what product lines to discontinue. He didn’t create the Australia day thing.

The CEO is ultimately responsible for every decision they make. He absolutely had a say in it and he clearly thought it was a good idea, and he thought his messaging was good.

Of course you fire the CEO before the enquiry, so you can divert blame during the enquiry. “Oh yeah maybe we did some bad stuff but it’s all fixed now”.

Nope, you wait until after the enquiry so you can blame them at the end and say "we'll take action by firing the ceo". What if the enquiry comes up with nothing bad and you've already fired your CEO? lol

Woolworths is not “finding out”.

Again - CEO gone. Enormous public backlash. This whole thing has even further pushed for calls for inquiries and change.

Just as it was a month ago, any assertion that Woolworth has made a mistake in discontinuing Australia day merch is just absurd.

Bet the CEO doesn't think that. Bet the people that pushed him to retirement don't think that. They are a supermarket, not a politician. Keep your shitty politics out of it and sell stuff that people want to buy. Note they never said it didn't sell, they just said there had been a "gradual decline in sales". The best selling product on earth can have a gradual decline in sales but still sell well.

Frankly, I’m genuinely surprised you’re still fretting about it.

Same with you.

I’m definitely not. DLSS support is a low level engine feature. The engine developers working on this are not working on content.

DLSS support should be in the engine before there is even any content - it should be there before there’s even a playable build.

It's not really free frames though. It's no different to motion interpolation on TVs that makes everything look soap opera-like. The game is still playing at the lower framerate, and the disconnect between your input running at one framerate but what you're seeing looking like it's running at another is going to feel "off".

I am a software developer, yes.

Yeah frame generation is crap, I wouldn't ever use it.
