I think this is the first time I have seen the term 'infinite wisdom' used unironically.

I don't understand this this sentiment. Surely, you can be well off while simultaneously support taxing the rich?

You know I kind of wish windows had a store, but then I tired installing apps using the current store and it's a terrible experience. They make it so hard for people with more than 1 hard drive to manage what goes where.

Probably because it's trying to convince you that Africa is really huge, so including other really big countries would be counterproductive. I guess you could argue that Canada and Russia both have a lot of tundra that no one wants to

>Depression may be just the mental price of brains capable of risk assessment or deep thought. There are plenty of very smart people who aren't depressed, but I don't know of any smart people who don't sleep.

Maybe I'm just in the HN echochamber, but this really feels like a case of death by MBA.

This problem is generally addressed by shaders, scaling is usually a separate process.

Is it? I would have assumed that use of nuclear weapon would be needed for nuclear terrorism. The idea of 'nuclear terrorism' puts a very different picture in my head than this. If someone dropped a nuclear bomb 'Equation Gro

If your model has a lot of wiggle room it can be consistent with anything. Maybe the solar system really does move in epicycles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVuU2YCwHjw&ab_channel=Santi...

We just a need a moore's law of nuclear power and we'll be able to have lunch at alpha centauri and be back in home in time for dinner!

Yeah I would imagine it's insanely difficult. The bar for genres dominated by indie games like puzzle platformers, metroidvanias, roguelikes seems infinitely high these days. Seems rough for devs, but as a gamer it's amazing.

I see what you're saying and I agree. I think this particular argument, is pushing back on the notion that piracy is straightforwardly the same thing as physical theft.

Piracy surely does do damage. But I feel as if it's probably a net positive for the gaming industry overall. Maybe I'm wrong but Indie games currently seem to be in a sort of golden age, despite piracy being as alive as ever. As s

As someone who uses yuzu to play games at 4k, I have bought 2 switches and purchased the grand majority of the games that I have played on emulator. While I think it's true that devs lose some customers this way, most people who are pl

Depends on the ping. I would say once you start pushing 80 you can definitely feel it. But >60 ping rollback feels very good if you are playing on a good monitor.

But they really aren't that predictable. There have been other events after the big house that didn't get a nastygram. Who knows why pokemon showdown is allowed to exist. The Melee community is pretty crazy though I would imagine

I'm sure a lot of the work is done through the dolphin fork, but a lot of code also has to be injected into the melee iso as well. Which is why project slippi doesn't allow rollback for all dolphin games (sorry project M)

Hmmm I wonder how many more types of cells like this there are. Is there any reason to think that body wouldn't use a very small amount each of an enormous amount of specialist cells.

The fact that Fizzi was able to get implement rollback netcode for a game by just directly editing the assembly code without any access to a the game's source code is insane. The delay based netcode for the newest smash game, Smash Ult

I think the idea is that you don't use a stick but instead some kind of open source content manager like kodi.

I'm not sure where these guys are getting their numbers, retail investors make up about 25% of the market. Not the dominant force, but also not exactly negligible. https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks&#x

I'm open to an explanation. But, I think a lot of the effect of the animation is created by the dots representing the whale and ships being huge. In reality the dots would be tiny and almost never come into visible range of each other.

Sometimes I wonder if we are also getting better at distinguishing artificial humans as time goes on. I remember as a kid thinking that G-man in halflife-2 was almost photorealistic.
