I think Wolfenstein 3D was really the groundbreaking tech. It introduced the entire 2.5D fast-paced shooter FPS. Doom was just a big refinement and flushing-out of those concepts that Wolf 3D introduced and proved.

Really, from a technological standpoint, I argue that Quake was the biggest leap, most ambitious and largest technological breakthroughs id software (IE John Carmack) achieved. It is a full 3D game engine, with advanced internal scripting and tons of other capabilities, that is a quantum leap above the 2.5D rendering of Doom. Truly it set the stage for all modern FPS games. The rendering pipelines and so on were entirely different from anything in Doom so it was a total creation of itself, and not an incremental improvement (like Doom was to Wolf 3D).

I ported both Wolf3D and Quake (and Quake 2) to Pocket PC back in the day, so I was intimately familiar with the code, especially the software rendering pipelines.

Congratulations, they've now gated the security updates behind 26H2, because Dumbfuck Klanbitch Trump and the Treasonfuck GOP allowed them to.

Once a month it tries to force my browser default back to Edge. I tell it to fuck off.

A few times they've done it BEHIND MY BACK and I had to fix it manually after a fake "patch" to windows.

Before the days of Dumbass Fuckwit Trump and the Constitution Hating Treasonshit GOP, we had government entities that SUED Microsoft under Antitrust law for this shit.

Fuck the GOP. Fuck them for enabling this shit. Every crossburning Constitution-hating member of the GOP is a fucking shitrag.

The KlanFuckSix do not CARE about the Constitution, you Putin-Dicklicking GOP TreasonTrashBITCHCUNT. All of you KlanBitchGOPFucks are cockroaches, traitors to the country and we need some fumigation of your infestation.

but IIRC, Apple has iOS's iCloud backup on by default (and quickly runs out of space and then nags you to subscribe to a paid tier).

DUH. That's the play. They force you into a "service" as an "opt out." Then - oh, the free tier is insufficient. Or the free tier JUST GOES AWAY and then they're holding your computer hostage.

Retardican GOP failed utterly at governance, the government entities that were supposed to be watching out for us and enforcing antitrust law died under Trump. Every Retardican traitor to the Constitution helped cause this shit.

If not for Treasonfuck Trump and the Shiteating GOP who hate the Constitution, this would never have been allowed, and the Federal agencies would actually be hauling MS's ass in for antitrust about this.

This is pathetic. The USA is over and dead.

Federal law already exists: COPPA, 16 CFR Part 312. This TX disgrace is in conflict, but the KlanTrash TreasonSix on SCOTUS don't care about the Constitution.

It's interstate commerce. This should be a federal not state thing, but then again, you Klanturds hate the Constitution as you've proven over and over again...

My Facebook account was assassinated a few years back for posting "#NEVERAGAIN" and a link to the British Holocaust Memorial Day Trust on May 6. Reason eventually given: the link to a HOLOCAUST REMEMBRANCE PAGE was supposedly "glorifying violent individuals or organizations."

That's right. Nazi Trash Filth Zuckerberg decided that saying "#NEVERAGAIN" about the Holocaust was somehow "glorifying" violent individuals or organizations...

Numerous data breach notification laws just for starters, you dishonest Anonymous Meta-Employee Trash Troll Coward.

Meta as a company ought to have been shut down ages ago for so many violations of law. It's honestly amazing that they've managed to avoid it. Constant impersonation problems, constantly not just allowing but actually HELPING scam artists defraud people, constant security flaws that allowed for taken-over accounts, or that resulted in people losing their accounts through no fault of their own, irretrievably. The best advice I can offer someone is to NEVER use a Meta-owned system, ever.

Well that's what you get when the GOP are now the Retardican Senilefucking Klanbitchbags Party. Every member of the GOP are either lunatic insane depends-shitting Senile Fucking Klantrash like Trump, or Russian Owned Nazi Treason Cunt Shit like Miller.

Go gaslight somewhere else, Braindead Retardican Russian Funded KlanBitchbag.

So... you have nothing to say, just a grab-bag of preprogrammed phrases from Dumbfuck Retardican GOP Radio. End your existence you Fucking Retarded little Klan Bitch Treasonass.

Solar is, by far, leading the growth of renewables. Solar is not a good source of energy in Canada, due to their high latitude (the angle of the sun is much less thus passing through more atmosphere), the disparity in amount of daylight received from season to season, and then the amount of snowfall they get, which covers solar panels.

Nuclear is one of the better sources of clean energy for a country like Canada.
