...title is a lie, actually it's a ploy to explain parallel reduction of a massive set of particles to get an AABB. He fesses up to it in the end.

A title lying making some outlandish claim

You've never had any issues, problems, with procedural generation? How much of that kind of code have you written?

A thumbnail using a red arrow

Erm what.

Using a thumbnail of a chunk border that happens because of larger changes within the worldgen code from switching different versions in an existing world, not because of the problems with procedural generation

Yes that's a problem with procedural generation. Games need patching once in a while, using procgen makes game state migration quite a bit more involved.

you in the past spreading fascist propaganda in German communities.

I suppose you have receipts to back that up. I'd be very interested indeed in seeing them. Presumably your perception is based on you having as much of an understanding of fascism as you have of clickbait.

No, seriously: Back that slander up or retract it. Not just of me btw but of those communities themselves for not banning the shit out of fascist BS.

Nah. They're blocked exactly for their mod abuse and selective rulings, especially regarding disinformation and trolls like you. They can continue to burn for all I care at this point.

Well I have written procgen code. Not my speciality but I've seen enough to know that Acerola is spot-on with the issues he's highlighting.

So, if I were to, say, say that Ted Kaczynski had an environmentalist streak, would that make me an apologist for terrorism? Saying that someone who does terrible things also happens to care about the environment is condoning those terrible things? Even if juxtaposed by, I quote myself from that thread: "[Beate Zschäpe is] a murderous fascist assclown"? That's fascist propaganda in your book?

No one asked.

So, if I were to, say

No. Nothing you are saying makes sense or is grounded in reality. That's kinda the crux of the matter here. But whatever. I have better things to do than talk to propaganda trolls.

That's some IMAX-level projection there.
