It’s the rotary shifter knobs and the AC controls buried in touchscreen menus that kill me

It helps that they are supported by a majority of those in power or with wealth or influence

Are you talking about the attachment point for a shoulder rest?

This feeling is the mood of Zac Gorman’s Magical Game Time webcomics

Does 1TW not sound as impressive as 1000GW?

It’s because God had five fingers on each hand, and five toes on each foot, and he had to use all twenty to create the world. Humans have yet to unlock this potential.

This guy is a total asshole, great to see him getting dragged in this review

You have to let it soften first by placing it over a warm cup of tea

Burning Man may be the epitome of the many optimistic and maybe naive qualities of the 90s that were co-opted and exploited in the early 2000s, and turned into the very things they were built to protest against - another being the free and open internet

I’ve had my eye on this for a while, I’m a rigorous notebook and pen note taker but the ability to search through notes would be a huge benefit - do you find the integration with other services to work well? (I would want to export notes to a separate cloud storage platform like OneDrive)

Pandemics affect communities not individuals

More like astrology, it’s all just correlation til the models fails and then they invent a new one

There is not one definition, if you hear “4K” you can use the context of the conversation to determine if they’re talking about the consumer 4K UHD format or cinematic 4K, neither of which have a vertical resolution of exactly 4000px. UHD standards are maintained by ITU DCI standards were developed by the DCI group and are now maintained by SMPTE

4K UHD (along with 8K UHD and 16K UHD) are the consumer format standards for 3840x2160 image formats which includes Blu-ray. Full 4K or True 4K or DCI 4K is the cinematic 4K standard shown at 4096x2160, which many TVs supper via slight letterboxing

4K is definitely a formal standard

No deaths but a graven image destroyed, hmm…

You must mean Plainit fellow pancake earthier?

Ok I’ll bite. Blocking the whole aisle at the grocery store shouldn’t be something that’s looked down on. The person rudely interrupting my conversation should be more looked down on. The reason is that having a conversation doesn’t intrinsically interfere with anyone else, but interrupting us and walking in front of us absolutely does.

All shoppers have the same and equal freedom to have a conversation if they choose, except for the people without friends of course. If that interferes with the shopping of the person trying to get by me that’s not my problem. The designers of the grocery stores should ensure that the aisles are wider so they can get by me. The grocery store constructed this scenario all by themselves and if there’s a problem with it they should solve it themselves. I shouldn’t be asked to sacrifice my conversation when I’m buying groceries (just like everyone else) because they failed to do that.

If we’re really insistent that this is somehow not 100% the grocery store’s problem, I’d next argue that if you don’t have enough room to get by in a regular row, then you’re literally too big for that store. You should go fuck yourself. The grocery should force you to do so.

Just finished Psychonauts 2 (haven’t played the first game) - it’s a solid 3D platformer with great art direction that trends on the easier side, though I appreciated having something that was somewhat relaxing to play for a change. I would highly recommend.
