Yeah so today there’s more of a spectrum. Back in the 80s and 90s there were far fewer choices.

I get what you mean though, just wanted to point out it’s more complicated to judge older games by new standards. Eg. if Zelda were a new franchise it might just be a fully open world from the get go.

Insurance companies randomly deny claims just to see if you’ll fight it. If you don’t, they’ll know they can deny more if your claims in the future. This is illegal, but if it’s a “bug” in the software or “AI” than they get away with it. Actually it’s harder with AI since people are more skeptical and have already caught them doing it. However this may be due to the AI being trained on the intentionally buggy software.

Wasn’t Zelda always open world? LttP was about as open world as they come back in the day?

There will be a commission to negotiate automation. Right now they will have time to negotiate until January 15th.

At least the alternative warhead doesn’t leave unexploded submunitions.

Obviously not perfect since it depends on screens and lighting conditions.

Which is actually my preference. How do you get per application keyboard settings for Linux? Seems like it’s not usually built in.

What’s the argument for using Angular over other solutions? Let’s say you actually need a SPA.

Could also be “The Titanic calls for aid!” And then we show “and Carpathia will answer”. Truly heroic.

I know some people upgrading Pixels every year because with trade in and sales they only need to pay like $200. I don’t think Sony will take an existing PS5 though…

In terms of driver development it’s more collaborating than just Windows releasing an API and the manufacturers creating the drivers. Bug reports from large manufacturers are absolutely taken seriously. Customers usually never see this interaction.

I would say maybe 1990-2010 was really a dominant time for Windows and that was also when they were actively improving, but now they have plenty of competition. It’s just that people have moved away from desktops. Mobile platforms are now an existential threat. Fewer and fewer people are buying desktops to begin with. Maybe Microsoft has given up on desktops and that’s why they’re making Windows worse.

Dating is like that hill everyone has to climb to get to the top where it’s really nice. But the hike up can really suck for some people. I really really hated dating but had to go through with it.

Wonder if she had just gotten out of a relationship and she was trying to recreate the same thing with a new person (which probably never works).

I’m not sure Windows is a good example here since they’re historically well known for backwards compatibility and fixing obscure bugs for specific hardware.

Whereas Linux famously always had driver support issues.

Wikipedia, ACLU, EFF and my company matches.

Yeah but a baby has to be in the correct orientation and has to change orientation as it traverses the birth canal otherwise you’ll run into issues. An egg is rotationally symmetric along an axis so it’s much easier to push out. It’ll naturally rotate into the correct orientation and doesn’t need to be rotated.

Not to mention she’s been immortalized as Meitnerium

Eh there are plenty of places that have less population density than the US but they do just fine with transit. It might be true that most US cities are poorly designed for transit, but the density isn’t a the reason.

This was my splurge purchase when the startup I was in got acquired.

And the tune comes from Bruce Hornsby’s The Way It Is which references the civil rights movement. Also sampled by Got Rice.
