- Comment on Order of magnitude is a hell of a drug 6 hours ago:
It would be the size of the telescope’s diffraction artifacts probably. Meaning the shape you see on the picture is not related to the size of the star but only to the physical limits of the optical instrument. This diffraction pattern is proportional to the color your looking at and inversely proportional to the size of the telescope primary mirror. The bigger the telescope primary mirror, the smaller the diffraction pattern and the more chance you have that this artifact will not completely hide the object you are looking at. I didn’t do the math, but I guess to image the actual disk of Betelgeuse, the size of the telescope you need is probably still science fiction, even with interferometry.

As you can see, I said “reputation”. I hate how little they innovate while still selling at premium, but similar to Disney, it is enough for the casual mass.

The fact that the Nintendos are locked down, family friendly and with a reputation of good production quality (similar to Disney), are also important points for non-nerdy parents and casual gamers who don’t want to navigate the ocean of PC gaming and its risks.

The only trustworthy solution is for your son to date some distant little cousin of Trump. Then he’ll get an Ivy League diploma for free and maybe some government position.

Obviously not great if it’s punitive, but if it introduces new creative gameplay or story branching, it could be cool.

- Comment on 4chan Is Dead. Its Toxic Legacy Is Everywhere 1 month ago:
4chan in the past years was mostly known as a far right shithole. But I think 4chan had more than that, they also had more progressive hacktivism like Anonymous and they produced a lot of historical memes for the internet. I hope we can have some real historian work that highlights the good and the bad from it and not just its sad ending.

- Comment on OG Guild Wars sees an all-new Steam concurrency high during its anniversary celebration | Massively Overpowered 1 month ago:
Second had nice ideas too but very different, not a coorpg anymore and more an actually MMO. PvP was very disappointing, they didn’t keep anything from the 1, probably because it was too elitist. For me the massification made me feel like I was insignificant, I didn’t like it much, I did a bit of the campaign and that’s it.

I think it’s a much much smaller player base. It was successful, but WoW was a mind blowing success.

Such a great online game with original ideas and one of the most diversed and interesting PvP of its genre.
- Comment on Anon describes their dream home 1 month ago:
We need to rationalize land usage to succeed in the environmental transition. Producing food is definitely a good reason. If one uses its garden as well as a farmer would to produce food, then that would not be a problem. But I think the vast majority of garden owners don’t, so it would be more reasonable to give back this land for farming or leave it to nature.
Yes, 10 billion people are going to have an impact, but the impact on land usage is not the same if they live in suburbs of individual houses with gardens or in five stories apartment buildings withing walkable cities with public transportation.
About the benefits of the gardening activities, cities also offer shared gardening spaces, so people who actually want to garden can do it. - Comment on Anon describes their dream home 1 month ago:
The issue us not gardening, it is taking more land from nature. That’s actually the first reason for biodiversity loss way before any kind of pollution we may produce. So the smallest is ground footprint of your place the less you play a role in that, hence why an apartment in a tall building is best on that matter.

Exactly, this mindset just creates more suburbs, roads, cars, unwalkable districts, etc.
