It was a point of technical pride that it was designed to run at 60 fps. Unfortunately the game was so poorly designed and coded that any time things started happening the game was incapable of running at 60 fps.
It is basically like if Windows ME team had designed it to work on 4k. It would've made things worse knowing they wasted time on putting a flower on a giant pile of turds.
I once met a woman named Bar. You guessed it, we met at a bar
Another girl I went out with during the same time period was Ifat - and yes, she was heavy set. Moran was actually quite bright, despite her name. Shiran actually did jog, and Hadass did have a nice figure. Tal was shorter than I expected, but Lital was bigger than I expected. Nofit, well, she had great legs at least.
Why would a random thing in the world specifically target anything? Nature throws things against the wall and keeps what sticks.
Look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedychrum_rutilans, a parasite on a parasite. Did it target beewolves specifically? And now its hosts are dying, was it his fault he chose the 'wrong' target?
Not the anthropocentricity is to criticise, but the idea of nature targeting. OP asked a well meaning question where sth. can be be learned from. Thank you.
The whole targeting phrasing mixes cause and effect. Evolution, as we currently understand it, is working differently: it is random effects and seeing what sticks, as you phrased, not targeting anything specifically.
The level of consciousness where the phrase targeting makes sense is way higher.
With utilitarian and anthropocentric world view you mean the 'target thinking' ascribing intention to nature, and not what is targeted, which are only incidentally humans here.
Once warming gets to a point we may not need desalination plants. The boil off from the ocean will perpetuate rainfall. Clean water for everyone. Never mind the 100+ mph winds that go along with that.
About Wolf Tivy's idea of "xenohumanism": strip "humanity" of all ape-ish historical contingency and identify the convergent "true man" as sum of "human" capabilities like language, philosophy, sociality, intelligence, consciousness
The year predicted for the glacier's collapse was an extrapolation based on data and models available at the time. While the timing was off, the thing is going away visibly for everyone!
In hindsight they shouldn't have set the date, but contrast the fast decline with the long existence. Maybe even let people guess or bet the exact year to involve them and make them think.
