I think dithering should still be considered, since a super high detailed game otherwise pretty engine that then has banding in the sky is pretty ugly. 32-bit RGBA can still have visible banding which dithering can fix. 256 brightness level

In both Factorio and Satisfactory I end up using long (and I mean, multi-kilometers-long) belts all the time and never trains. Something about the track building being clunky, or I don't know what really the underlying thing that'

I'd love to finally see interesting (non-predictable) AI opponents in games like StarCraft and Age of Mythology! Since a good AI is too likely to beat humans due to high APM, don't limit their intelligence, instead limit their APM

I don't know man, I really feel the difference when natively scrolling in a webpage that has everything rendered already, vs things that load and change as you scroll. I have a free-flying scrollwheel. Native feels much better, faster

The random words had "lead", I tried it and some translations are e.g. "plumb" which is about the chemical element, while others are e.g. "conduire" which is about the verb "to lead" So it seems to no

Perhaps this is layman's understanding, but afaik all CPU operations are only done on registers, so any variable has to be moved to registers when it's operated on (or are some operations possible on memory without going to regist

> 1 + 10% is 0.11. I know adding % has multiple conventions, but this one seems odd, I'd interpret 1 + 10% as "one plus 10 percent of one" which is 1.1, or as 1 + 10 / 100 which happens to be also 1.1 here The only in

Never have that problem with Archlinux, 'pacman -Syu' to update everything almost never gives problems (it's actually over 5 years ago it gave a real problem for me). You can control yourself when you run it too, no forced up

High FOV settings really help against nausea for me. On PC, games may be more tweakable than you think and have FOV settings hidden away somewhere anyway. E.g. Fallout 4 has it in an ini file, some games have console commands for it, etc...

Can a CPU implement RDRAND however it wants, or are there specifications that constrain it in some way? E.g. if a CPU were to put a microscopic lavalamp and camera inside it and use a hash code of pictures taken from this lavalamp as the re

Firefox refuses to zoom out for me on mobile (Android), even with the accessibility setting to allow zoom enabled (that setting is about zooming in though). How do you force mobile FF to zoom out?

This seems to kind of work on mobile, except the right half of the game board is cut off, making it unfinishable despite playable. Everything else works, but like 3-4 columns of tiles missing on the right and a purple book at the bottom whi

I do wonder if it would be possible now to not map this to textures, but to pixels in screen space. Because it looks like high-res 3D mapped textures with circular dots on them now, rather than low-res screen pixel dithering. I remember see
