- Comment on bone 2 days ago:
The human body evolved for resilience: having a large number of bones provides redundancy, meaning that we can break many bones and still have at least one to spare.
It’s also partially a vestigial trait, as our ancestors needed to do a lot of boning in order for the species to survive - nowadays we don’t need to replenish our numbers as much.

- Comment on Engine auto-off 1 week ago:
In USA metropoles during rush hours, maybe.
For people where >3 out of 4 stop sign encounters are uncontested, the feature is idiotic because not only it slightly wears out the starter, but shutting the engine off and immediately turning it on burns more fuel than letting it spin for those 0.5 extra seconds worth of power, and I doubt the catalytic converter feels that little difference.
Granted, I regularly see a few cars idling while their driver/passenger is buying cigarettes and it drives me nuts, but that has little to do with the start-stop system itself (and that *little* involves them disabling it).
- Comment on Engine auto-off 1 week ago:
At this point my muscle memory simply toggles it off as soon as the engine is on, occasionally I even manage to predict when I have to stop for more than 5 seconds and turn it on in time.
- Comment on Engine auto-off 1 week ago:
It seems unnecessary, they could just have its user-set switch as one of those factors rather than forgetting everything upon disablng it.
- Comment on Engine auto-off 1 week ago:
Some cars, like mine, only allow you to temporarily disable the start-stop system, and it turns on every time you (fully) start the engine.
In my car specifically, if you manually turn the system back on, for whatever reason you have to reach a minimum speed of 10km/h before it works.

That would be “pasta puttanesca”

Checks out, “pasta alla puttanesca” literally translates to “whore-style pasta”
- Comment on What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ?? 2 weeks ago:
The duplication never made any sense to me, I’m not aware of any OS’ mechanisms for ensuring that files don’t get fragmented;
idk about Windows, but the Slim version was just as fast on Linux when I had the game on an HDD - most of the mission loading time is CPU bound anyway. - Comment on What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ?? 2 weeks ago:
It’s still a great game - it has a whole bunch of issues, but a fraction of the online community is making it look like playing it will burn your house down and frame you for the assassination of JFK.

As Bungie demonstrates: you can take the studio out of the Microsoft management that makes passionate employees quit, but you can’t take the Microsoft management that makes the passionate employees quit out of the studio.

still 3x slower and annoying when dealing with slopes (= all the time) :c
- Comment on Is there a good transportation game that actually simulates traffic as well as factorio does trains? 4 weeks ago:
My favorite part of the game by far - with the least favorite part being my friends demanding silly things like “making pretty railway pillars” and “bringing everything to a single place and processing everything locally”…
- Comment on Is there a good transportation game that actually simulates traffic as well as factorio does trains? 4 weeks ago:
Satisfactory has quite the satisfactory railway mechanics: in addition to what you say what you want with them, you also have to place proper semaphores in order not to have them crashing each other.
Efficient networks require roundabouts and double one-way tracks, but sometimes it’s much more convenient to either have maze-like single one-way tracks (makes paths longer) or two-way tracks (blocks traffic, and gets worse the longer it is).
… there is no “intellgence” with vehicle paths, though: trucks and trains always pick the shortest path, and if they’ve gotta wait, they’re gonna wait.

Unironically this is just me with arch linux btw 2: Electric Terminaloo
I’d rather have 5 problems with a piece of software and being able to investigate/fix them, than have 1 problem and be told “whoopsie doopsie, something went wrong, we made a fucky wucky, go pound sand about it”

No, no, you’re doing it wrong, you shouldn’t drink and drive.
You need to do all the drinking beforehand, so that you aren’t distracted behind the wheel!

I guess it’s because I’m using the rexglue sdk release rather than building it…

IIRC Reddit didn’t / doesn’t look for any one word in the prompt, the web interface of Lemmy does.
What’s even the point of that? More words in the prompt should narrow the search down, not widen it up!

I’ve used 3 different clients (web IF included), so far the only thing that I’ve found not to be rendered consistently is the ^superscript^ syntax - on the web interface ^I^ ^have^ ^to^ ^wrap^ ^every^ ^word^ ^with^ ^the^ ^superscript^ ^thing^, otherwise Image, but one mobile client I’ve used does/did render it like you’d expect it to.

Fyi, you can write greentext-like text by writing a backslash before the greater-than character:
> This is how it looks like when submitted
\> This is how you write it
\\> This is how the previous line looks like as I’m writing this
\\\\> ditto… all of this assuming your client renders my comment correctly.
