  • They weren't even in the same league though graphically (on PC). Crysis really was that one game which blew everything else out of the water. In many ways it set the precedent for companies to implement ultra quality settings which only worked with the very best GPUs of each generation.

  • Hell yeah DQM! I imagine an alternate universe where that game took off instead of pokemon. So much fun and I still play it (and the sequels) regularly.

  • We've been using tsp at my work for years and it works well. It is just a very basic queueing system so if you can run the job from the command line then you can run it via tsp.

    Our workflow is to have concurrent jobs run on the remote servers with cron and tsp but you should be able to trigger remote jobs over SSH also if you prefer to have a single machine in charge of task allocation.

  • Will always upvote Dr. Collier. Her 4 hr nu-trek video was one of the best video essays this year too.

  • Started my fitness journey during covid and one thing I can recommend which is non-obvious to those who haven't been training all their lives is progressive overload:

    If you're doing 20 pushups this month, do 21 next month, then 22 the month after, etc. Keep pushing yourself and you'll get stronger than you ever though possible. Take it at your own pace though, if you push too hard it's easy to hurt yourself.

  • Yeah I guess if you already have skim milk around the house then that makes sense.

  • Wait, why on earth would you use skim milk in ice cream when you're adding in basically equal parts cream anyway?

  • Same here! I thought it must've been for the Brisbane Olympics, not the ones bloody 4 years ago.

  • I prefer bands like Skepticism, Impaled Nazarene, and Desecresy personally but each to their own 😉

  • As usual it is a matter of education and normalisation. I'm a rock climber and am surrounded by shredded people a lot of the time. I'm sitting at around 18-20% body fat which is high for the sport but I am considerably leaner than the guy in your photo.

    I can absolutely tell that he is overweight (even with clothes) but that's because I have invested a lot of time into learning about health and fitness and spend most of my time with people who have a 'healthy' BMI. If all you see are overweight and obese people every day then of course you will look at this guy and think he looks perfectly healthy (which he might well be but that's another discussion).

  • Where is that mentioned? I don't remember it from the books.

  • And it was made just for me :)

  • You just unlocked a repressed childhood memory from when I was 10 and we spent our lunchtimes playing MTG outside the school hall. Every day for months one year a group of girls decided to rehearse a dance they were choreographing to Animals by savage garden so we had to listen to it being constantly played, rewound, played again, stopped, repeated, ad nauseam. It made me hate savage garden for years after with an unrequited fury. I don't think I ever fully recovered.

  • The thing for me wasn't so much the game choice but the placement. It feels like they took a big bag of 100 of the best games and randomly picked them out one at a time. If you start to ask is Y really better than X on this list then it starts to make less and less sense.

  • Smart Audiobook Player +1 such a good, feature complete app.
