  • With the way they reused, dynamically loaded assets before and tried to keep world seamless, they’d probably load\unload parts of these 125 Gb a lot, with this 16 Gb RAM requirement no less. They test it with SSD and make it so it doesn’t have microstutter and loading problems on their target machine. Or, god forbid, loading screens when walking outside, like it was in TES3; or TES4 banning levitation and loading complex cities as different locations that won’t work in a space sim etc etc. BethSoft had many problems with it already. I doubt it’d refuse to work, but if they build their game around it, the result is unpredictable. Bet, it’d load low-res LOD textures and only then replace them with okay ones. That’d probably ruin the spaceship landing – one of the, possibly, most demanding and visually sweet parts of the game. It looking great is their baseline here.






  • I hear you.

    I don’t know how new Excel performes and I thought it’s the same as ten years ago - the version I’m trapped in. With people who obsessively try to drive it to the edge where it’s not responsive on average office PCs.

    But if it works well with various big spreadsheets now, it’s a wonder, with how many new people start to tackle programming with Python. I obiviosly won’t write a script faster than normal operational speeds of software, it’s just some tables ended up that big and broken I could only open them like that. But that, I guess, is exclusion?

    It’s just the issue of people using a microscope as a hammer when they need to break nuts.



  • But why? Excel is a shit way to work with big amounts of data due to it’s own format’s complexity and bloated software. It’s welcome to implement python, but that’s not what holds it down. Opening a big csv would crash it on the same machine that loads it with a python IDE in seconds. It’s not made for this. It’s like, nice, but the volume of information you need to make it matter would break Excel in halves.




  • What this actually shows is that Russia doesn’t even feel the need to pull out its modern equipment, they’re clearing out their old inventory the exact same way NATO is.

    Why? Do they enjoy dragging this conflict for more than a year? Is there some reason to why they don’t use some sci-fi orbital blaster?

    If you lived there, Ukraine or Russia, doesn’t matter, and have served, you’d knew how deeply you are wrong. Bet you didn’t, and I did. Post-soviet army culture is what makes me suspect they don’t have anything breathtaking you think they have in worthy quantities.

    Opposing western propaganda is one thing. Not taking a moment to understand you are high on russian one is another. Just take a glance at this quote of yours and say it’s not copium.
