kinda... graphics all end up as polygons eventually but 3d tile rendering has a lot of different considerations and limitations you don't have with rendering a normal 3d asset rendering. check out things like CesiumJS that is an equivalent kind of technology

it's not the same. 3d games use polygons and shaders and whatnot. you can optimize things much easier in that space since it's a lot more computational. 3d tiling is literally a bunch of png files being streamed down.
3d terrain tile streaming takes a crazy amount of data. it essentially downloads hundreds of png files at a time and overlays them over 3d terrain data. Everytime you move an inch or pan the camera, it pulls down new data.
yeah wtf is up with Android recently? seriously, like, how did they not hear that /u/dream_weasel only uses these features twice a year, if at all? get rid of that shit if /u/dream_weasel doesn't use it. Android was made for this one specific guy and we can't even remove split screen and stop dev on the bubble feature for him. Jesus Christ Android. get your shit together. I'm so fucking done. moving to iOS.
did not expect Nevada to ban tatas
op mentioned the context is situations where firearms are used. so pretty sure they meant useful as a self defense method and not useful as a way of exercise
I still think about that terrible day. once harambe passed, the world fell apart.
can we stop using Taylor Swift as a spokesperson for all young women? like I'm all for her as a pop singer, but the media gives that billionaire too much clout as a representative of all young women. can't we just say young women speak for themselves without it requiring a billionaire woman to illustrate something for them?

as much as I think Intel is dumb, it's definitely not in the consumers best interest for Intel to go out of business or absorbed into another company
