So they'd rather lie in their press release.

I use separate emails for all accounts and that get's me in trouble when companies "consolidate" accounts because "everyone uses the same email for all accounts". Your good idea might be true, practice is not.

I've had this twice now in one year ...

One. One watch. POTUS's watch. And in fact, that's why Boulder is currently shuttered... they disagreed.

> He's being sanctioned as a result by the USA

As a result of what ? What’s the trigger cause of the US sanctions ?

ICC can’t issue warrants against non ICC countries?

Well, we don't have FSD in Europe, and in US, I guess the children don't walk to school.

As mentioned by others, Descent used portal rendering all the way back in 1995. It's a simple trick that only requires an alpha mask, which even the earliest hardware supported.

But certainly the game Portal (2007) hyped using portals for rendering prior to Prey.

I can explain a bit. Russians living in Empire of Evil can see all internet including US and EU news. At the same time 'Putin propaganda' channels are blocked in EU. In EU only one side is available. This creates an information bubble, as intended. Which is a basic crowd control technique used to drive public opinion. In this case to support the war. The result is obvious, EU polls show much stronger support than the rest of the world. Even though media claims most of the world is against Putin, if you look at the map it's only minority, NATO and a few allies. In some EU countries it's even a crime look through the bubble's wall. Most don't realize it even exists. They accept the arguments from their politicians. Like it's a business opportunity, or it's a cheap way to harm Putin. The price for that is hundreds of thousands of human lives on both sides. Which is generally considered as ok, as those are Russians and Ukrainians, not us. Actually media doesn't talk much about it.
