Thanks, I wasn’t able to view the trailer on safari mobile in private mode (asks to sign it but I don’t have an account). But it worked fine on youtube - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_iWMpW_C7Z0 if anyone else needs a link

Is there a comparison image? I’d like to see screenshots of the original and the corresponding screenshots of the remastered version. Update: the trailer shows the old and the new version at ~26s, direct link: https://m.youtube.c

In some cases touch buttons are preferable. At least they are always in a predictable spot and often perform the same function. Compare that to an actual screen where the button label and button position can change.

Off topic, a dog’s wet nose also works. Surprisingly useful on walks, e.g. when a poop bag won’t cooperate in a critical moment and licking your fingers is not an option.

“Infinity” on its own is clear, but in tandem with monkeys it could get confusing. If you remember that a monkey here is also a theoretical construct then I guess all is fine. But otherwise monkeys need at least a universe to function and t

I use cursor and its tab completion; while what it can do is mind blowing, in practice I’m not noticing a productivity boost. I find that ai can help significantly with doing plumbing, but it has no problems with connecting the pipes wrong.

That's a fascinating point of view, thanks for sharing. I know that the concept of dark ages is overblown, but still - something about relying on AI like this makes me think of the end of classical antiquity.

Also they can be fine in moderation. Similarly, if you find a zero added sugar low saturated fats treat and eat too much of that, then you can still run into problems. It seems more productive to me to not classify food as “bad” but to focu

Many have the "legitimate interest" checkbox selected. Does anyone know what does it mean in practice in this case? I roughly understand the general idea behind legitimate interest but I wouldn't know how it would apply here.
