Some people think that "roguelike" is a good term for games with no permanent progress, with "roguelite" being the alternative for games like Hades. These people don't say these terms out loud to anyone, they just p

I'm not sure when you tried. The current state-of-the-art emulation for melee is much more responsive than console melee; on a high-refresh-rate gaming monitor, you have 2 whole frames of extra input lag to play around with. For local

They previously "allowed" it at Evo 2013 after massive backlash from trying to shut down the Melee stream, years before anything related to sexual misconduct was talked about. There is nothing recent enough about how they treat th

I'd be interested in seeing a meta-analysis of all of these fair use copyright cases. The only consistency I see so far is that the side with more money ends up winning. Seuss > crowdsourced star trek pictures sold for $8k total &lt

There was a pretty serious-sounding contingent of commenters here in a recent thread about RSI. To them, the main cause of RSI was some sort of unconscious tension they were holding in the affected areas, and they needed to relax to make th

My dad just had a similar surgery in the shoulder; I'm not sure whether to send him this! There's no sense making the placebo effect less effective, or even reducing the efficacy of a useful surgery with the nocebo effect. In his

What's insane to me is that a grace period is built in, but that the mere fact that this grace protection is active isn't a giant neon sign on their dashboards and alerts. I do see how it could slip through the cracks, since it wa

The nature of configuration is that it's different for prod and your testing environments. It doesn't make it impossible to test your prod config changes, but it's not that simple either.

I think it's as simple as a case of the Mondays; you wouldn't roll out a migration like that on a Friday or the weekend, and rolling it out on a Monday gives you the least chances of problem occurring on those dates.

Is there any risk of a "doesn't produce immune response" failure that would make it unsafe to start giving to healthcare workers immediately? Could it make later vaccines ineffective? I'm sure that it would ruin the data

It might have been the trial for a different vaccine; I think it was the one someone on this site was participating in? But in that trial, the control was another proven vaccine for something most people don't commonly get vaccinated f

For some reason this sentence jumps out as being easier to read than the rest; maybe it's the self-deprecation? > I was, after all, something to sneeze at, someone you could easily hold a candle to, someone who usually aroused bridl

Would something like Firefox's containers(?) help you for these sites? There's a way to leave a single tab signed in without having it leak the fact that you're logged in to your other browser tabs, rather than logging in eac

That doesn't mean it was a relevant response to the parent comment, which did not use any legal phrases. They just asked if the case was any good or not. Since 7 justices said they didn't have standing, and the other 2 said it was

Others have said that "real people purchasing goods" are still the customers for antitrust; you get there by saying that when companies have to pay google more for their advertisements, the cost is passed on to consumers.

I don't think the ending was intended to act as a climax to the narrative. Rather, it's the logical conclusion of several ideas shown earlier in the story; modifications to how you think that can't be reversed; alien consciou

Of course! Unlike the other imaginary hypocrisy in this thread, I actually saw someone on reddit say this exactly. They were just there to vote, and they were asked to turn their BLM mask inside out while they were there.

I didn't think voters were allowed to have political clothing either? I've heard of some voters asked to turn masks and shirts inside out while they're at the polls.

Their whole point is that it didn't actually save any time; if it didn't exist for free, they wouldn't have done it themselves.

It's weird that it's so buried, but I actually like the proposed idea of separating the noun and adjective forms of roguelike. "Run-based" is never going to catch on, and there's some adoption already; just roll wit

In Celeste, there's an easter egg that lets you play the original PICO-8 game on an in-game computer. How was this accomplished, if porting it themselves isn't possible? Did they have to remake the entire game?

When I played Baba is You, solving a puzzle didn't feel like fixing a problem. It felt more like the instant you finally get a joke, or come up with a good punchline yourself. The mechanics of the puzzle game combine in surprising and

If you only care about the creator's cut, sending them the cost of one month of premium directly would vastly outweigh any loss from your use of adblock. It's probably not even a dollar, across all the time you've watched t

It's a holdover from print news media to use uncommon-but-short synonyms in headlines. There might be some benefit online as well, but since it's an established jargon/vernacular/dialect/etc of English, they probabl
