After you put your pants back on.

Google is literally anti-privacy so... "better than google" is ... still not necessarily good.

Well if they didn't even notice an axis on a graph, they might be too stupid for a graph...

My point was only to say that 5% is very mich visible on a 0-100% graph.

Dunno'. I hope so, but Asmond has proven to be a bit ... uh... dense. Hopefully he at least learns not to use such negative language when he supposedly doesn't mean the entire meaning.

People are basically good, but criminally ignorant on average.

Just look at Asmond Gold's recent ban. I doubt the dude would ever even think about shooting a Palestinian himself, but boy will he happily dehumanize an entire culture as easy as taking a sip of water!

5% is noticeable unless the graph is under 20 pixels tall. Even then, dithering or antialiasing techniques could make it visible.

Almost like both parties are morally corrupt and owned by external interests...

(note: making a basic observation that is negative of both parties DOES NOT and NEVER means both parties are equally bad)

We've got A LOT of cleanup to do, and that's after we get fascists out of office.

It's plastered all over painted blocks of wood for $40 at mildly up-scale places (or places trying to appear up scale), along with other "gems" of wisdom.

It's not so much the cornyness, but the posh posturing and sheer stupidity of having vapid expressions on expensive blocks of wood.

So... things not actually restricted to internal combustion engines? That sounds... rather petty and foolish.

What about it, for curiosity's sake? Is it the fumes? The crazyness of literally going so fast as to barely retain control in tons of metal? Or for things like motorbikes, doing all that without tons of metal for a modicum of protection? lol

I love motorsports, but no matter the power source, the extreme stuff kinda' takes having a screw or two loose...

It wouldn't be part of the systemic fixes, no, but it would be part of the emotional healing that we all need.

Neither are executive pay packages. In fact, they harm A LOT more people than one rich prick... So defend them if you want, but know that in doing so, you defend the very problem.

IMO, "One app/library/etc does one thing only" is a rather ignorant form of wisdom about encapsulation, anyways.

Encapsulation is important regardless of how many disparate tasks a library handles. Doing one thing with one thing is a pretty good rule of thumb to get close to good results, but it is FAR from a golden standard, and serves to drag people away from the finer nuances of encapsulation.

The ONLY time it is a hard and fast rule is at the individual function level. A single function ideally should have one task to accomplish, even if that task has side effects.

I'm sure there are cross-dependency issues on an OS level that makes it a bit wiser to do for widely used system tasks, but to make it an absolute rule smacks of wisdom gone awry. Like not eating shellfish in the bible.

Nah, suits don't deserve the dignity of a painless existence. They made their choice to be a soulless husk, and that's how they should be treated.

Fuck them. They're literally part of the problem, and you listen to them?

Well, they are clowns, you can't knock them too hard for trying to juggle so much. Now if only they could learn people don't want to watch clowns any more...

Yea, don't have to render all the pixels for full enjoyment, though I bet things like the UI would love the extra detail.

Either way, the industry has a greedy corpo problem, not a technological limitation problem.

The screens getting better pushes directly against graphics processing increases. More pixels takes more power, after all.

Not that it's any excuse... Modern phones are more powerful than the Switch, by a long shot.

I really wish mobile games could be good, but this is modern capitalism: It's not about careers and good products. It's about extracting wealth.
