  • Honestly, that is perfectly fine as a business model, being able to choose between per install and revenue cut is actually very developer friendly, and changing licensing terms for future versions doesn't really fuck anyone over.

    If only they hadn't shattered everyones trust with their previous announcement so now no one sane will want to use unity anymore.

  • Fax is unencrypted. Encrypted versions apparently exist but that's not what Japan and Germany use.

    And that aside my mom regularly gets sensitive patient data via fax at her workplace because the number is one digit off some doctor's (bonus points for the inverse also happening, and her also working with sensitive data). Far less likely to happen with email. At most encrypted fax is equally secure.

  • I went to bed at 5-6 am for a few years. I didn't have sleep issues whatsoever. Slept the same amount and felt just as rested (more if anything) as now where I have a "normal" sleep schedule.

    There's also people that, yknow, work at night, whose sleep might start at 9.

    I don't think it's necessarily wrong to not limit yourself greatly on what u do based on if someones sleeping as long as you avoid very loud things (a pleasant fuck you to my mom (love you) for insisting she needs to vacuum at like 11 every second day when I had that sleep schedule), but your reasoning is just bull.

  • Yeah, not once have i had any need for a usb c port on my pc? Not having to deal with orientation is nice, but I've also had the experience that usb-c is worse at keeping a connection, and I have so many cables with USB-A at one end anyway.

  • Yeah I'm the same. Never really hit more than 10 tabs on desktop unless researching, and I reset them on restart anyway so they can't accumulate. On my phone I think I'm currently at 89, and that's only because i closed all when it went above 100.

    Also notepad++ I probably have 100+ open for the same reason. Opening something new makes a new tab, and they never reset.

  • Lower risk yes, but also harder to put out yes, and also the comparison here isn't about cars at all.

    It still shouldn't be an issue as long as you place the storage somewhere where the fire can be contained easily, then worst case the whole storage burns down but there wouldn't be significant collateral damage.

  • Lithium batteries can produce oxygen when at high temperature. I'm not sure if they would produce enough to be able to start burning in such conditions, but I wouldn't rule it out (maybe someone better versed in chemistry knows). And once they start burning, the fire heats them up more, so they produce more oxygen, whch further fuels the fire.

  • And also, not everyone even has the same schedules. USA has common "9-5" office jobs, in germany people more commonly start at 8. So even with timezones you still need the schedule adjustment to a degree.

    I play online video game tournaments with players globally, one person will complain about having to play at 11 because it's so early and would rather play at 0, someone else complains that 16 is too late and would rather play at 7. And even with many people in that community being very experienced with timezone conversion, they still occasionally mix something up.

    One single global time would just be better. But I also brought it up once on reddit and got pretty much the same reactions.

  • It isn't on by default, but pressing shift I think 5 times fast in a row is a shortcut not even to turn it on, but to display a pop-up asking you if you want to turn it on.

    You can disable that though. However it still seems like something that shouldn't be happening by default, since no one is going to want to use it without knowing about it, and at that point opt-in seems better with how easy it is to do accidentally.

  • Das Mädchen is actually easy as it is a diminuitive which are always neutral (granted, no one uses the root word anymore so that may be hard to identify in this case).

    Outside of rare cases like that there are no actual rules, only things that can help guess, and anyone saying otherwise is simply wrong.

  • I have the opposite issue, so yes. I don't particularly enjoy having to constantly pay attention to every enemy, but I enjoy learning a boss fight for an hour or two. I've also played a few games where dealing with random enemies felt harder than dealing with bosses due to sheer numbers, and it would help with that too.

    So I don't think it's really a design problem. If you know exactly what you want your game's experience to be, then don't add it. But I'd argue for most games it isn't integral to the experience how the difficulty of normal mobs vs bosses compares, and people have different preferences for it.

  • Yeah, from what I can find their operating profit was in the negatives every year.

    Not sure how much of their costs go to the label vs. Server and employee costs, though. It's possible they take more of a cut than retail stores do regardless. Bandwidth isn't cheap, and software devs aren't cheap either.

    In any case, the artist sees very little of that money.

  • Partially, but plenty of anime targeted at adults are also set in high school. Because japan romanticizes high school as, unless you go to university after, it is the last time before retirement where you aren't stuck in their hellish (but at least slowly improving) working conditions.

    Very similar to the tweet in the OP really.

    Personally even with the relative lack of free time i prefer working over being in uni, and high school was hell on earth that I only managed to cope with through video game addiction.

  • Because some things warrant my immediate attention, and most don't. I am never interested in being contacted synchronously unless it's something actually urgent. And because of that I can tell people that if they need me, they can call me and if I'm at all able I will answer immediately, otherwise I will probably answer later, aka whenever I happen to see it.
