Yeah elden ring SotA, I finished all the bosses and all the content but 1 optional boss on saturday, and the last boss yesterday. Good dlc but the balancing is kinda whacky and is has the typical complainers about difficulty, the typical defenders that have not finished the dlc, and then people that have done all bosses that know that the last boss is the most overtuned piece of shit to be ever crafted in ER. The other optional hard boss (bottom right) is also kinda stupid but it’s optional and it does give you SOME breathing room, but the last one is just completely un enjoyable.

Because elden ring lags and struggles to keep fps at 60 sometimes with a 3080, why even try to go higher. I’d also saybthay playing ultra wide gives a vision advantage and PvP and invaders being a thing I’d prefer not.

I do the daily ffxiv dungeon rouletes since it’s an excuse to do old content without feeling like you lost time, but not everyday and not all of them.
They are not there to keep players engaged tbh, they are there so that people that wants to do that content can find people to do it with.

but… this is not the math you see at STEM, this is the math you see at high school at best. There’s no deeper meaning in actual STEM math problems, they are way too abstract or specific. There’s no watermelons, it’s just some a, b, n1, nk… maybe some physics formulas that apply to velocity, mass… I read 0 problems in my uni math and physics courses where they used real world examples.
I see your point but that’s for high schoolers, not STEM students or alumnus.

I’m going to send you a pdf, you van email me back with the notes or comments in the PDF itself, whatever souts your fancy, and I’ll keep those notes and send you a new PDF with them.
I did this and I had no issues with any of the thesises I have submitted in my bachelors or masters.
First year calculus teacher, thank you SO much for forcing us to write submissions in latex.
Also, overleaf is a thing, this is not like my 1st year of uni, this 11 years later or so. If your fucking professor never heard of latex they are just bad at academia and shouldn’t be teaching honestly. It’s not just about the field knowledge.

It’s not you who said I should assuke, it was them who didn’t specify, implying we should asume, sorry if I made you think otherwise. Canadians and Australians afaik aso use dollars, just not USD.
In any case, this was quite the small complaint I had, so I’ll just drop it haha. Have a great day.

Sure, but they didn’t specify they were american, did they?
- Comment on It is very therapeutic to garden, though. 5 weeks ago:
That’s cool, I wanted to point out that saying cheap and then a ice point without reference isn’t really helpful because price varies so much.
Also, 270 per week per person!?!? What the fuck, that can’t be true, that’s more than what I extrapolated it would cost me in the European expensive countries when I visited and went to random grocery stores. As always, the american dream seems to be a scam fetish xD.

I live in a quite expensive Spanish area and we usually spend 50ish for 2 people’s worth of food. We do go out or order food on the weekend sometimes but being vegetarian we don’t spend more than 15€ on produce a week at most so 40 a week sounds a lot.

That’s super expensive… 40 a week for just veggies? I spend 40 a week on all my groceries at most.

Oh no no, I did see plenty nsfw posts on my first week, but that was like the first week where I blocked a bunch of nsfw communities.

yeah, insttead of blocking nsfw instances (since I think that that blocks users too), I blocked every nsfw community that popped up, and after the first week I’ve had no issues either.
- Comment on Why are there two different genres both called ARPG? 1 month ago:
I agree, honestly. I also like specifications, but I don’t like the game to be inaccurately specified. I feel that it’s better if an umbrella term is used in the title instead of a more specific fake one, and then a short description describes how the game is played or what kind of experience I should expect in several words, instead of a single term. That, alongside screenshots, let’s plays, and all sort of resources are plenty help to decide if I should buy a game or not.
RPG is used for games where you take the role of a character, and it should somewhat tell the story of either the character or the world around it. That alone differentiates some games from others like rocket league or fifa, where there’s no story, you don’t take the role of nobody that matters, what matters is the gameplay.
Hack&slash was a term used for games where you killed tons of monsters with weapons, and then Diablo started using the ARPG term to say that besides killing tons of monsters, you also get to enjoy a story in a particular ambiance. Dark Souls games also fit the description where it’s more about the action than reading, but feel like a completely different genre, right? no isometric, itemisation is vastly different, the gameplay loop is completely different… This is why just reading ARPG means nothing to me nowadays, I have to dig into the description anyway.
Another example, is “Ys origins” an ARPG or a JRPG? both? It has fast paced combat where you kill tons of mobs and a story, but it has a very japanese style, however, JRPGs are being known for having to manage a party and usually turn based combat, sooo? idk, a 3 line paragraph and 3 5 second clips would be much better than just a term for me.
- Comment on Confused Reddit Users After Coming to Lemmy (Apparently) 1 month ago:
I’m having none of that, what kind of content are you searching for it to be impossible?
- Comment on Why are there two different genres both called ARPG? 1 month ago:
Maybe because those terms are confusing. Is dark souls an arpg or a jrpg? Or both? I know that jrpg is a specific genre of Japanese games, but it’s still confusing. Are final fantasy games jrpgs? Kingdom hearts? Xenoblade?
It’s just easier to say RPG and not enter in a pedantic war with the community.
- Comment on Why are there two different genres both called ARPG? 1 month ago:
Hack and slash through hordes of enemies, it’s kindnof the point of the game.

- Comment on Windows 10 is the last version of Windows 2 months ago:
You say even more, as if it was comical to begin with. But yeah, it’s annoying sometimes but I’m not dropping 1k for a new GPU anytime soon, I’ll have to suffice with the one I have. Yeah I do update them weekly almost, every time I do yay there’s a new driver version, it updates and it works. No major issues besides the explicit sync but that’s being fixed soon and I installed a patch so yeah.
For sure I spent more time customising it than I did in windows, but that’s kind of the point isn’t it? Linux is about that, windows is not supposed to be. I don’t mind spending time customising and tinkering if I know that a megacorp isn’t taking my data. That was the trade-off, data and money for convenience. Now that convenience has been reduced and the data has increased, it’s not worth it for me anymore.
So yeah, with windows you need to work against the system, disabling stuff that they intend to ship that is harmful, while on Linux you work with the system, tinkering and customising stuff the way you like it, with the defaults being a community thing, not a megacorp thing.
- Comment on Windows 10 is the last version of Windows 2 months ago:
Cool, as stated though, I would have persevered if it wasn’t for the vertical taskbar being removed. Oh you can’t have the main taskbar only be shown in the secondary monitor either. Look, I get that they are implementing features and apps are adapting and all that, but these features missing make it feel like a regression, alongside weird interactions with sound volumes I’m having in my work laptop where even if I change the volume, it gets lowered again and I have disabled all the features that let apps take control, dunno.
I’m a developer, I get that beginnings are kinda rocky, but that’s what I expect from a FOSS product, not a paid one. Is it weird that I feel that it’s unreasonable to get out of beta with all these kind of issues? To suggest very aggressively to upgrade? Specially when the upgrade was free for all the win10 users? It’s not like they had a big monetary incentive to push the release forward.
Win10 might have had tons of security holes and the cortana stuff, but it was really configurable, you could format the start menu as the win8 panel, as the simple win7 panel, or as the hybrid win10 panel natively, you could move the taskbar to wherever you wanted, across multiple screens, configure it as you liked natively. Now you need to install 3rd party stuff to emulate half baked imitations of those features, and if security holes appear in those products microsoft won’t fix them. Win 11 feels way too restrictive, in a way that I feel like it takes a lot of decisions not for me, but from me, and I really dislike that.
Yeah, I know that the win10 panels can be re-enabled through the registry, but until how long will they be patched? They are clearly deprecated.
- Comment on Windows 10 is the last version of Windows 2 months ago:
For your first two points, I’m kinda against having to fight against the system, at that point I prefer to work alongside the system with Linux, but W/E. In any case, I would have fixed these if the taskbar wasn’t impossible. No I’m not going to install a 3rd party program to fix the taskbar.
About the 4 monitors, it’s cool that you like having 4 taskbars, wasting tons of space. I don’t. I’m not asking that, I’m asking having a single taskbar vertically. It’s one of the big complaints I’ve read about win11, not being able to have vertical taskbars on the side of the monitor.
I’ve not seen a way to remove the “recommended” space in the start menu, and I’m sorry but any recommendation I didn’t agree with is an ad. You might think otherwise, and that’s cool, but I don’t like ads in products I pay.
That last sentence wasn’t very nice, especially considering that you didn’t understand one of the complaints (the taskbar thing).
Anyway, happy that you are enjoying win11 and I wish I was, but yeah, I don’t fancy paying for less features.
- Comment on Windows 10 is the last version of Windows 2 months ago:
I wish. Most stuff I used to do now has extra clicks required, the right click 7z panel, the process monitor kill process button (now hidden on a submenonor on a right-click), and I can’t put the taskbar vertically!!! I use two monitors, I’m used to having it on the right monitor, on the left vertically. The reasoning was that not many people move their taskbar, and while that might be true after some regex modifications, the only thing that’s as completely broken if you put the taskbar vertical was the news buttoj pop-up (it didn’t align correctly), which is basically ads, and I’m completely against them gutting features because their ads need extra work (not that much work, just work).
Besides that, having a fat suggested apps bar on the windows menu that takes 30% of the space is a thing again, which is ad space too. Great
Anyway, KDE is cool. Thanks Microsoft, I would have persevered if it wasn’t for the vertical taskbar, now I’m happier.
