  Have to partly disagree. The loading screens, whilst usually brief, were very annoying.
  Elite Dangerous, No Man’s Sky or Space Engineers accomplish similar tasks without needing those, or having to limit the accessible planet area.
  I understand that those were limitations of the engine, but it could just be speculation.

  You gave them a hammer and their nail has not gone in straight?
  Clearly your fault. And the hammer’s.

  Somewhat unfunny answer: a 3cm diameter ball of thorium, that easily fits into one’s palm by size, should be enough to provide all power an individual uses in a lifetime.
  This can change a lot based on usage and actual power generation efficiency.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A conundrum⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Considering how much data they can get on anyone, this process seems pointless and outdated, except to give them somewhat arbitrary power over who can get a loan.
  Not that I like such private data to be available at any institutions fingertips, but so it is these days.

  Fuck is ‘core’ and ‘premium’??
  Will they deliver the news all he way to my device e ery morning if I get premium?
  The $2-3 subscription wouldn’t be unreasonable, but I’d rather give it to an outlet that doesn’t try to mislead me even before I become their customer.

  From radius (of the weapon) back to source. Just a backwards way of saying it the way I read it

  I don’t mind the Microsoft style, but I wouldn’t be sure it’s a shark without context

  Ryot github.com/IgnisDa/ryot
  It’s an attempt for an everything tracker.

  This is as far from cute as things can get before turning into outright cosmic horror

  Hmm not quite what that should look like

  The number list is how markdown works. You can enter all 1’s and it will automatically create ordered list.
  Handy when you may need to edit list items, as you dont need to renumber even in plain text.
  Markdown spec should allow for explicit number by using a bracket ‘)’ instead of a dot, but it may not work everywhere.
  Let’s give it a go

  Does it really matter when you’re a duopoly and equally bad as one another?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wake up babe new shape just dropped⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  An infinitely small segment of the arc can be.
  Geometrically there isn’t a problem. If you draw a line from that point to the center of the arc, it will make it clearer.

  Calling them ‘curses’ is apt

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Spitting in the face of your international audience': The Alters cops to using generative AI for background text and translations, despite not disclosing such on Steam⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t have an issue, it was just a question.
  I don’t ever translate anything but a few words myself.
  My assumption was that a dedicated tool would have done a better job, but you have good points about tone and coherence of long text (and possibly even across many promps of the translation).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Spitting in the face of your international audience': The Alters cops to using generative AI for background text and translations, despite not disclosing such on Steam⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why would they use LLMs for translation over dedicated translator (apps like Google translate)? Is this common now?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the progress pride flag so poorly designed (especially the intersex progress pride flag)? Will it be redesigned?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Only to a degree. Good flags are simple, distinct, memorable, easy to recognise from a distance, easy to recreate.
  There are plenty of objectively bad flags out there that fail in their design, yet people still like them, and that is fine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Even in android Microsoft is still trying to get you to use edge⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d take that in a heartbeat. I want my meetings and emails summarised, minutes written for me.
  That’s the kind of daily crap I don’t want to have to do myself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon likes trains⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would be more surprised that you yourself would withstand vibrations extreme enough to kill a hard drive, for 8 hours at that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon likes trains⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This seems highly unlikely. Modern HDDs are extremely resilient.
  But I don’t know the details of your situation, obviously, and it’s not impossible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon likes trains⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have heard that China has made significant efforts in this area, but that really is a massive change in just over a decade.
  Meanwhile, the UK will take as long to build a single high-speed line.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨THIS always annoys me.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Someone correct me, but I understood that donations serve as a tax write-off.
  So they don’t care about the donations as much as their own savings.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Switch 2 Teardown: Still Glued, Still Soldered, Still Drifting⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I repair a lot of my stuff, but bear in mind repairability isn’t just ‘can I fix it’, but ‘can anyone’, which includes repair shops.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pull to enter, you say?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is true and not just about ads. It’s called ‘sign blindness’.
  People often run on autopilot when doing things as basic as opening doors, and reading requires direct attention.
  It’s not (always) about being dumb or careless, it’s our nature.
