Here's mine. Fuck Spotify. Any user problem gets referred to the suggestion box where you'll always be told to go fuck yourself. That's the only attitude they know: fuck you with a generic smile. There's this feature tha

That has nothing to do with it. There's no tolerable level, but more is still worse than less, and GP's point means more people with a direct vested interest in calling for change.

I couldn't discern a control scheme in RDR2. It was like Dragon's Lair. "Press J to execute this half-action/half-cut-scene. Now press P to execute this next one and advance this half-action/half-cut-scene. Now pres

We have no idea what kind of player they are because the article isn't about being the best poker player. I don't recommend making a habit of bluffing in real life. Unlike in poker and certain television shows, people aren't

Mid 40’s and no, I haven’t noticed this. If anything I’m still taking on increasingly greater challenges. I also drank heavily until becoming sober 8 years ago, and smoked truckloads of weed in my twenties. I would investigate circumstantia

I'd guess that the expected commercial value being low would be the norm, and discoveries making millions relatively rare, just as this is in every other context. However, the second half of your second paragraph is where my mind wen

I have tried again and again to switch to a stylus+app solution, and I've reverted to paper and pencil every time. Unbeatable latency, totally predictable UX, and no UI to argue with over anything. I've been a programmer for 35 ye

There's no mastering configuration tasks, because it's all arbitrary unilateral decisions made by randos and committees of randos. There's no logic to finding out which arcane formatted strings need to be placed where in whic

This is yak shaving. I mainly but not exclusively encounter yak shaving when, against my better judgement, I venture into the Opensourcelands. 10x more of it there, at any rate.

1) A time travel game that is a simulation based on some coherent model of time travel, rather than a narrative. 2) Dwarf Fortress, but with at least Double-A 3D production. 3) A proper Groundhog Day sim. There have been a dozen piss-poor c

That wouldn’t work for me at all. I’ve been rotating around all the services, one at a time, since sometime last year. I quit Netflix for the first time since ~2007, last September. Nothing watchable that I hadn’t seen. I resubscribed for t

Oh please. They said that isn’t why. Anyone seen Shameless? Seasons 1-9 featured loads of gay and trans characters and plots, and they were superb. Seasons 10.5-11 were unironically woke garbage, and I had to abandon it midway into 11. I ac

Clickbait. Article says it should be. To which I say: the fuck it should. Is a law degree a liberal arts degree? If universities decide CS needs to include some instruction in the human side, they can offer those classes without reclassif

Not for the reasons central to the article, but my favorite is the No HPV Test For Men stance. Because men usually don't have symptoms and have far less risk of cancer than women..... Just take 10 seconds to ponder how myopic that is.

Outside of this site, I wouldn't consume news for free, and still wouldn't if you paid me. The news is all about the consensus account of what the canonical global social hierarchy supposedly is. No thanks.
