So instead of the girl tying their hair back, your foreplay is to pull on some kneepads? Hot.

Aww, I never heard of that, shame.

Not a huge amount of room to be different, but not sure I’d expect much more either.
I’m not sure it makes much sense to gender swap, feels like it would be hard without changing the character significantly. Happy to be proven wrong though.
A new character in the same universe would be easier. It’s a shame they never spun off Hallie Berry’s character, that could have been interesting.
- Comment on Lionsgate CEO on Borderlands bombing at the box-office: "Everything that could go wrong did go wrong" 1 week ago:
Yup, that’s how I read the quote as well, but most of the article is banging on about the financials, which makes sense given its a statement to shareholders, but its kinda meaningless for everyone else.

That quote is very mangled.
“Accountant uses numbers to explain why creative work was bad”
I think it would be much more interesting to hear from the writers/directors/actors on why it was bad.

Initial version will be free, and DRM free, distributed by us and completely open. This will be so we can get feedback from modders and establish some confidence. When the project becomes more structured we will look at future options.
Consider me excited!

The studio shutdown definitely did get announced, but no formal cancellation AFAIK. Selling a cancelled game is just wrong
- Comment on Take-Two is selling its indie games label Private Division 2 weeks ago:
Too soon, I’m still sad.
I suspect KSP2 has probably killed all the goodwill earnt by KSP, I certainly won’t buy anything else until I know its a finished game.

Oh, okay, might just risk it then. Paints terrible, but if its just going to be a small bit of sanding, or cleanup should be okay

Do you know how badthe damage to the wood will be? Is it like a small hole I can drill out and patch?

Ah, bummer. They are on the weatherboards, so might have to go. Shame, was happy to leave them be otherwise

Anyone had to deal with mud daubers or paper wasps? I have both creating a nest on my house.
Everything I’ve read suggests they are nonviolent, so my current plan was to leave them be, and then knock off the nests next winter. Its gonna be a zero tolerance policy, if I get bitten once, both are gone.
Am I gonna regret it?
- Comment on (In Python) Can you save an object that is in memory to disk and reload it at a later time? 2 weeks ago:
You are describing pickle, but it does come with some serious risks, especially if the file can be modified by a third party.

I’d suggest using protobuf or similar instead, but its a bit more work.
- Comment on If you eat nothing but smoothies, do you still poop? 2 weeks ago:
Tangentially related, but when I switched my cat from commercial cat food to a raw chicken (w/ supplements) diet, her poops went from very bulky once a day, to shrivelled poops every-other day.
The amount of water in the chicken, and the lack of bulking ingredients made a huge difference.

Chess/Go? AlphaZero would fit that description. Also think they were tackling StarCraft as well?

Don’t over think it, Mint will be fine. Modern Linux is very user friendly, and you can do almost everything with some form of UI.
- Comment on Is it safe to simply delete a huge app or file? 4 weeks ago:
Think of a file system as a book. There is a table of contents, and then all the files are in the subsequent pages. Deleting a file is typically done by removing the entry in the table of contents, the pages are untouched, which means its a very minimal change.
Deleting an app should be fine, but if its an older phone, you may want to look for a migration path, as hardware will fail as it ages. Could be anything, battery, charging ports, buttons. One day it will die.

I installed and uninstalled in 60s. It wasnt even close to an Age of Empires game. The cut scenes whenever anything gets built really killed it for me.

aH is capacity, A is flow rate. As long as the voltages are correct, it’ll charge eventually.
Ah == size of the bucket, A is the size of the hose you fill it with.

- Comment on How is it possible for the IT experts to recover data that was erased from a hard drive when the storage of said hard drive appears empty? 2 months ago:
You have a notebook. On the first page, you put a table of contents. As you fill in pages, you note them down in the table of contents at the start.
When you want to delete a line, instead of erasing the whole page now (there are hundreds free still, why waste the effort), you erase the entry in the table of contents.
Now if someone finds your notebook, according to the table of contents there is no file at page X. But if they were to look through every single page, they would be able to find the page eventually.
This is loosely how file systems work. You can’t really use it to boost storage, the number of pages is finite, and if you need to write a new page, anything not listed in the contents is fair game to be overwritten.
