Yeah it's enough to make an appreciable difference in the right circumstances, but it's not going to miraculously take a rig from struggling to run a certain game to working smoothly.
OW is basically Team Fortress 3, the only mechanical addition was ultimates with cooldowns. It was an innovation, but saying that TF2 was just CS with abilities is crazy. It was a hero shooter by every metric that makes OW one, unless for some reason you think ultimate abilities are the defining trait. There were 9 characters with very unique toolkits, and most of the OW characters are directly inspired by one of them. The game modes were also lifted directly from TF2.
I liked OW1 quite a bit so I'm not trying to trash it, but it sounds like you never played TF2. If you did it's very obvious how much DNA the two games shared.
From my memory OW was constantly fiddling with the balance from day one -- there were always community complaints about one character or another, and I think the ults being so powerful made it extra hard to balance. Also look at how they had to introduce such hard role caps eventually.
When TF2 launched it was one of the most balanced games you could find with such diversity of gameplay. That got eroded over the years with all of the new weapons which is why the game eventually lost its identity IMO.
It's definitely the most accessible. I still think DotA is the best in terms of balance and gamespace design, but if you want a game you can play casually HotS is much more approachable.
Except they're not surviving, are they? They're being harvested for semantic associations and then destroyed.
Anthropic could easily offset the PR blow by offering a free digital library of all the works they're destroying, but of course that would require them to actually pay a fair price to the owners.
Another one I feel bad downvoting! It's not got the same gritty technopunk feeling as the Descent games, but gameplay and visuals are just as good if not better.
I like humans and human creativity and human intelligence and I think everyone using a technology that actively makes you bad at those things while spitting out crappy jumbled regurgitations of someone else's work is not a good thing.
Given your genre flexibility, there is nearly infinite music out there from well before the was any question about it being human-made. You could easily listen to songs you've never heard back to back for the rest of your life without coming close to running out of old music.
For modern stuff you've basically got to see video of them performing live to be sure.
Okay, in this case the action in question is not writing, it's researching.
If you try to research a topic for three hours and then ask AI... where do you think it's getting the information? From the Ipswich Jailhouse basement? No, it's making them up out of whole cloth and now the book that you wanted to give a historical grounding is at best pure fiction and at worst active misinformation.
Make sure it has at least a few inches of clearance at the back. Also many cases/PSUs have fans on the bottom, if yours does then raising it up on some feet can really help.

Short answer: yes, a bit, but it's unlikely to make the difference if you already need a graphical environment to run games.

Sure but we're comparing an extremely derivative hero shooter that never had great balance to some of the greatest examples of their genres.
Implying that Overwatch is peak Blizzard is incredibly insulting.

Startling lack of evidence for these incredibly bold claims.
I do love this game and IMO it's the best of the -shock games (system & bio), at least for gameplay.

Article says she was fired! But also that other racists raised $125k+ for her on crowdfunding...
Yeah and many of them are using AI to do it.

Are you just providing a text description for accessibility purposes? Thanks!

Good point, SUVs for everyone is the only truly enlightened path.
OpenTTD!!!
Also Satisfactory.
Sometimes videos take like 2-3 seconds to start playing. That's it.
