The only reason being young is a requirement is because of the lack of walkable cities in the US making people there semi sedentary

Talking about the section where you’re directing Reed from a distance through a stealth section, there’s a couple of spots where you can preemptively act to have Reed not just stealth kill them or smth

For every person who’s civically aware enough to choose not to there are 10 people out there who don’t know or don’t care enough to do the same.
- Comment on nobody in webdev knows what graceful degradation is anymore 1 week ago:
Took me ages to find a snippet that has a manual dark mode toggle but in a way that works with prefer-color-scheme so by default it inherits your settings but you can overwrite it… It’s just not a priority for a lot of people or they’re ok with the site flashing or something.

- Comment on Ofwat to be abolished as ministers look to create new water regulator 1 week ago:
Doesn’t matter what they can do, just what they promise they will do, and when one side (Labour) gives up on taxing the wealthy and improving life and instead is parotting the same anti-immigration drivel while the other is promising to make people richer and better by blocking immigration why would people vote for Labour again when they can vote for the easy win promise of the latter?

Slower but up to spec for most people unless you need high data transfer speeds, and it also provides wider range than 5ghz.
- Comment on Tales of Arise - Beyond the Dawn releases 9th November, 2023. 1 week ago:
I know I'm a year late but:
“Renans” is only ever used to describe the converted dhanans in game, yes the hologqui or whatever their name is are the actual people of Rena and their name translates to “renans” but we don’t refer to them as renans, and the marketing for a dlc very much won’t spoil that huge twist either, they’ll talk with the expectation that many people won’t have played the base game.

Someone should let the leadership of Toronto know, they keep increasing costs with having it go underground

- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 3 weeks ago:
I don’t know enough about how the rest of the world runs to generalise further
- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 3 weeks ago:
People in power in the west are barely moving the needle for their own people sadly.
Also even if they did, they’d still need a valid cause to start an international conflict I think, it’s why Russia tried the “it’s actually russians in Ukraine that are being oppressed and we’re liberating them” excuse
- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 3 weeks ago:
Generally countries in the west only get involved in conflicts if they get something out of it, be it directly via getting wealth from the country, or indirectly like curbing successful non-capitalistic economies before they catch on and their own people start questioning the billionaires. The “we’re there to liberate people” is just marketing speech.

Well, say, country-size :D

Does that lead to any performance hiccups with very detailed svgs? The benefit of raster is you can mipmap them, so you don’t need to see how super detailed the coast of a country is like when it’s only a few pixels on screen. I suppose you could fake mipmaps by having different levels of detail for svgs that get swapped between, as long as any other changes you make to the svg are simple colour changes?

The first change doesn’t seem to be related, but that second link is promising.

I know that makes sense to do, but that’s different from them making plans to do it

What makes you think Labour are looking to change that?
- Comment on Does people doing things that upset others also upset you? 4 weeks ago:
I’d say no, you can develop an allergic reaction to many things, doesn’t mean we should ban it all because of that or because it’s upsetting to some people. As for “upsetting” I think it’s everyone’s freedom to perfume however they want, if it’s something socially concerning like idk, smell of puke, then feel free to raise an eyebrow at their choice and vacate the premises (if possible, if it’s on a plane then yeah might need to get them to cover it up), but just because it’s generally unacceptable to use that as an aroma doesn’t mean it should be banned still, mainly because the intention isn’t to harm but to self express. Banning something should be a last resort.
- Comment on If people's voices become copyright protected in the future as a response to AI, will any non-commercial uses of voices be affected as well? 4 weeks ago:
Ai models should contain a database of all the data it was trained on, where it came from, and through what license did it get perms to train on it. That way you don’t get the issue of comparing outputs to real life work, because the issue isn’t with the output, it’s with the use of the data in the first place without permission to train the AI model, and no it’s not similar to humans learning. The scale and accuracy of reproduction from a software is so much higher than a human that it’s not even a comparison, before we get to what it means to allow humans to grow as people by enriching themselves Vs what it means for a corporate owned churner.
- Comment on Old gamers don't understand what mobile gaming has become 4 weeks ago:
Hmm I’m not sure using gacha games which are designed for addictive gameplay loops and predatory monetisation being the games that your kid prefers over standalone experiences is a good argument to make

Cart persistence and going through the actual checkout is not great. Plus even as a browser there’s no progress bar or sense of stuff still doing something so you’re sat waiting for things to progress
