Forgot the button that closes it, that was my first flight and I only noticed once I was past Mach (kek)
I usually fly prop birds, the A-10, F-15, or the B-1B. Got the MiG-21 too, which is pretty labor-intensive to fly compared to Western jets.
>>9061
Yes, but that's only if you look at the airframe by itself. There's three layers of computers between the pilot and the plane that help smooth things out. I think the Mirage's devs messed those up.

Wow looking at screenshots, they've improved it a lot since I've last looked at this project, which was like a decade ago. I'm glad they've been working on it!

I might give it a go some time but I don't have a yoke and throttle which I've realized is kind of a must have for sims.

Hey, anon! I fly with a mouse too, it's 100% doable! Just turn your sensitivity low. About 40% is a decent start. You can even fly the F-15 with not much trouble (though aerobatics get a little hairy, and forget the Mirage.)
Give it a try! :D
>improved
If you really want the good stuff, look in the forums. I can link the MiG-21 I'm running for you. Don't take my screencaps as representative of the sim, it's on minimum shitbox settings and then some. Rembrandt rendering gives you nice shadows and proper lighting. Check out the Hurricane.

Watched it with my parents. They seemed to like it, but I thought it was mediocre.
It really is your standard heist movie, complete with police standoffs, backstabbing, and sadism. The dubbing is horrendous, and so are the romance subplots. There's a pre(?)quel out now, too, which is just more of the same with an even bigger romance subplot.

I doubt heist stories are power fantasies. I think heist stories are popular because those that made it, kicked away the ladder they used to climb to the top. So heist stories are popular because people feel powerless and the heist represents a sneaky ladder to climb to the top anyway.

None of these heist stories are realistic at all, and the fact that people are willing to suspend disbelieve anyway is a pretty good indicator how much social mobility has ossified.

Pretty much the title. I decided to check what was "trending" on YT and the result was picrel. 99% of these songs are horrible musically and visually. The majority have bourgeois and extremely sexist lyrics. Why is this shit trending? Why isn't there the same backlash against the messages of popular music as there is against other media?

The Trending tab is where YouTube puts its safe bets. A ton of people listen to music, so that piles up. I get the impression it's really trying to lean in to music now that Spotify has become a hellhole for free users.

Hello. I want some anime that have people attempting to outsmart each other as a major part of the show. I already watched Death Note, Code Geass, Hyouka, Classroom of the Elite, Kaiji, Akagi, No Game No Life (some of it was nonsense, but some of it was really impressive), The Promised Neverland, Legend of the Galactic Heroes (I am mentioning this one even though it wasn't mainly focused on mind games so nobody suggests it anyway), One Outs, Talentless Nana, Kakegurui and Zankyou no Terror (it focused on mind games at the start). Please tell me of more mind game anime.

Now that the dust has settled, this show was pretty redpilled on real US government conspiracies. I can't quite decide on a burning question though. Was the exposure of these conspiracies by a popular television show a thorn in the side of spook agencies like the CIA, or was it more likely to be a continuation of Project Mockingbird (referenced in the show btw) discrediting conspiracy theories via association with fantastical fiction?

Is Chris Carter a friend or foe?

One school of thought says that fictional stories would create plausible deniability for similar hidden projects. However another school of thought says that it would popularize conceptual awareness and make it more likely for people to pick up on a actually existing patterns in the real world.

I guess it depends on priorities:
1- people know about it, but think it's not real, in that case the goal is to discredit people who speak out, and attributing their claims to a popular TV show probably works.
2- people don't know about it and it's a secret, in that case the goal is to avoid spreading any information about it.

The easiest way for average Joe to figure out about secret projects is to learn a language of a foreign country that has reason to spy on such things, and just read what's being written in foreign specialty publications. Other governments intelligence usually de-cloak top-secret stuff pretty quickly.

It's a lot better than i expected. The audio quality sounds, lets say, cost-optimized. But the musical aspects are nice, albeit somewhat generic. 2 years ago music-generators like this sounded like angry monkeys rampaging through a instrument shop. The progression is very impressive. This does not produce non-musical noises. If you don't concentrate and specifically listen for minute AI-artifacts, you probably wouldn't notice.

You need an account from Disc_rd, Goo_le or Micr_Soft to create with it, which is a bit of a bummer.

Some of the relevant legislation is unofficially refered to as the Mickey Mouse act.

Whoever has been posting about this show, thanks but also fuck you. Why'd they have to cancel this show? It was fun and thrilling and sometimes surprisingly deep and charming/endearing. Summer Glau's character is one of the most fascinating and perfect fictional characters I've ever known. Sometimes I wish Terminator was real because of her even though it might mean the end of humanity.. *laments*

In order for this to change, people need to start crowdfunding shows, then nobody can cancel it. But before that's possible we need something like open source creative franchises.

>Sometimes I wish Terminator was real because of her even though it might mean the end of humanity
Not really, the terminator AI is too stupid to win against humanity. It got a time-machine and all it does is send assassin-bots into the past ? Seriously ?
To win it just had to advance its technology, then send that advancement to it's past-self, repeat that step a million times until it's so advanced nothing can touch it.
