Overuse of reflective surfaces are the same kind of fad we saw with bloom in the mid 2000s and early 2010s. Now that SSR everywhere is technicaly feasible gamedevs want to use them everywhere. I think this started 5-10 years ago and RTX ha

Yeah it's definitely a new font. But harkens back to fixed, I think.

Consider the recent Club World Cup final and semi-finals, hosted on an American football field with shitty SIS pitch. I saw more slips from players in the semi-final than I've ever seen in a single game.

I am entirely serious as well . I have always wondered what the propo font evangelizers really saw, so I gave it a go after trying (and finding problems with) 6 different fonts in this thread. It’s a game changer for readability. My only gr

I think the typical perfume user does not wear it every day, or at least the same scent every day. I certainly don't.

While the premise of 'draws are boring' is debatable, I do think the discussion on unequal finances in prem clubs needs to continue. For some years parachute payments have helped with the relegation issues, but there seems to be a

I like this a lot. A suggestion, I think it would be good to have a 'latest update' date on the articles, indicating the latest update of any source used. I understand this could be difficult but it would be nice.

Yep. I had similar issues asking Gemini for help with F#, I assume lack of training data is the cause.

Someone commented in this thread a few days ago (deleted now) that DNS blocklists do not work on Spotify anymore for whatever reason. I would guess your best option might be spotify on web with ublock origin (but I haven't tried it).

Absolutely no need to do kernel level packet filtering for this. You can use the absurdly easy hostfile approach, or a simple self-hosted DNS server. This looks entirely LLM generated as well. Also... who the hell tries to make changes to a

I have this problem when using the JShelter addon if I enable the privacy switches. Your browser is probably resisting fingerprinting.

This is the way I feel as well. I think there is an ethical way of using AI as an assistant: have it either generate a high level plan for what the architecture of your solution should look like (and decide whether the choice looks correct

As much as I’d like to get resizable bar on my Turing GPU, the amount of homegrown “this might work” patching necessary is really off putting.

I think it’s important to take into account these low demand is likely due to the low popularity of soccer in the US. US national games don’t even draw a full stadium.

I think it’s funny nobody I am aware of from this period predicted the attention economy, and even funnier that Asimov predicted boredom would be a genuine societal issue. Just goes to show Asimov was quite full of himself, I think

This makes so much sense in retrospect. I think the review I wrote of the last novel was that I felt it was a cash grab.

Yeah, unfortunately I felt that the last few novels in the series were uninspired, maybe even lazy.

DN42[1] provides a playground for routing technologies. I wouldn't recommend digging in if you don't want to dedicate a lot of time into it. As someone fairly well versed in networking, WAN routing is still confusing to me. GNS3 i
