Games use lower polygon models and lower res textures for showing distance renderings. Some games when you run on lower graphics settings will use these lower resolution models.
But yes it'd be awesome if all games had their rendering engines moddable. Hell most games aren't even moddable at all anymore. If they were I'd still be modding them. -

A10 is still overkill for majority of missions. A10 is made for attacking convoys of Russian armoured columns. You'll find no such thing in Afghanistan in this day and age. When attacking single infantry of attacking squads of soldiers, you need something slower so you have more time to aim. They needed something that could stick around in the area for much longer while providing extremely close support to special forces on the ground. The A10 is too big and bulky for this. Jet planes use too much fuel too quickly at those low speeds.
The USAF adopted the Brazilian made A29 Super Tucano for this role. Yes, the USAF recently adopted a simple propeller plane for combat.
Even then, when it comes to jet fighters, they can learn a lot from the Russian MIG programs. If waste of taxpayer money was corruption, America would be the most corrupt country in the world. -

Originally posted by Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country Maybe they could buy Mig29s from Russia?
Lots of countries make excellent fighter jets. Try SAAB of Sweden. UK, France and Germany all make/made their own planes too.
Alternatively they could focus on improving already proven designs. The F35 was made to fail anyways, the future of air superiority lies in anti-aircraft and anti-missile defences as well as drones. The most expensive part of a fighter jet is still the trained pilot.
Even then there's no need for such air superiority. Any enemy that America's been dealing with in the past 70 years could've been dealt with just as easily, and more cost effectively, with WWII fighter planes. Hell, a few years back America almost brought back the P51 mustang as a ground attack fighter to replace the A10 warthog.
US military spending is insane. They could learn a lot from Russia, who has 1/8 the military budget of the US, but still rivals the US when it comes to military capability. This actually fucks the US in an all out war, because their military doesn't know how to operate without a budget. Though I guess in Russia they roam the countryside kidnapping farm boys for the motherland. -

Of course I'd drive. I live about an hour's drive away from the border.
Else I haven't been in the US except at some concerts were everyone was taking LSD. -

2020-02-03 at 9:45 PM UTC in what makes women woke?Lol that article is hilarious,
Fox is denying racism and sexism, irrespective of whether or not they exist. It’s nothing short of gaslighting. It’s all very Donald Trump.
They appeal to feelings. Trump bad. He must be Donald Trumpey because he bad.Not wanting to date “woke” women, far from being laughable, is actually one of the more insidious aspects of it. Spend an afternoon on any major dating app and you’ll come across (generally white) men saying openly sexist and misogynistic things. They might say “no psychos” or that they “fucking hate big eyebrows” in their bios.
The toxic masculinity here is just oozing. Pretty sure it's women who are more afraid of psychos online dating. Men are most afraid of obese chicks.
Then the article goes on to insinuate that because Mr. Fox or whatever won't date woke women, he's in support of school shootings. -

Originally posted by MexicanMasterRace Lmao the RICH are pro immigration? That's the funniest thing I've heard all day.
Why would poor people want immigrants in their countries? They already labour for themselves. Just adds to the competition.
If you think any of this accepting refugees is about 'kind heartedness', you're in for a rude awakening. -

Originally posted by MexicanMasterRace The replicator, again, needs nothing. It materializes from nothing by converting matter. Printers don't convert matter. They form it/arrange it.
Any realistic attempt at creating a functioning replicator would simply be a 3d printer that you fed with atoms or molecules or whatever. -
2020-02-02 at 12:54 AM UTC in Acquitted!I think it's pretty simple.
We should make everyone do the MBTI personality test.
Those who come out with personality types of 'feelers' do not get to vote. That's in contrast to 'intuitives'. Most men are intuitives while most women are feelers. Hey at least we're not dictating who can vote based on gender, right? -

Originally posted by Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country All that I can gather from the media is that Trump is evil and white men are destroying the democracy that brave women of colour built.
The power of insinuation is often misunderstood. You can tell the truth, but insinuate a lie. Yet you're cleared of ever lying. -

You know what happens when only rich live in a certain area? The price of getting someone to fix your sink increases. Making the sink repairman rich as well.
Unless you have a bunch of Mexicans living in vans in the area. No wonder the rich are all pro-immigration. They want cheap labour. Pro-immigration folks are the real racists. -
2020-02-01 at 11:16 PM UTC in Acquitted!I liked how they banned alcohol through the constitution. They realized that that's the only way they could do it. Drug bans are unconstitutional as such.
