  • Dragons Dogma 2: To Dragon's Dogma 2 players on Steam

  • No the "point" is that in any given game, fast travel is a system that is either there or it isn't. Particularly in a single player games experience. That's a feature that's expected, and locking it behind a paywall, even if it's listed as a feature only added by dlc, feels shitty.

    It would be like releasing a game, and charging for a pause menu. Some games don't pause, some do. To lock that basic feature behind a payment is silly, greedy, wrong.

    I feel the same way when I go to some gas stations here. Everywhere has the lowest grade on the left. Then you get this shady AF shell station or something, and the high grade is the left most one. You KNOW they're doing that to catch people unaware. Is it illegal? No. Does it instill any confidence in your business? Hell no.

  • Believe it or not, in certain contexts, this is an appropriate use of dimension. Dimensions can be thought of as parameters, essentially. In 3d space, you have 3 parameters, length, width, and height. Add in time and you have 4d spacetime. From there, if you're defining a system with more parameters, it's a higher dimensional space. A movie with 3 spatial dimensions, then programmed smell releases, like someone else mentioned, would then be 4 dimensions: l,w,h,s. The reality is, it's a bit silly and definitely a marketing gimmick to refer to your movie experience as "9d", but it's not entirely incorrect.

  • temperature

    Jump

  • It is really easy to map onto human feel though. 0-100 pretty accurately maps onto our minimum and maximum realistically survivable temps, long-term, and the middle temperatures of those are the most comfortable. It's far more round, when it comes to describing human preference and survivability, than Celsius is.

    Jump

  • Which is a surprisingly good approximation for how people feel. 0-100 is pretty survivable, with the mid ranges being most comfortable, and things outside of that range starting to pose serious threats.

  • What was a book so good that you have ReRead it?

    Jump

  • Stephen King's Dark Tower series is my go-to epic fantasy. I'm about to start a 4th trip to the tower once I'm done with my current listen.

    Enders Game by Orson Scott Card, and a select few other books in the series (Speaker for the dead and Enders Shadow most notably) - Card at the top of his game is fantastic, I just wish he didn't dive completely off the deep end.

    Tangentially, Berserk, if you include manga. Hands down my favorite piece of media altogether.

  • And don't forget RTFM

    Jump

  • At the end of the day, both are required. You need to study to be effective at what you're doing, but at the end of the day the only way words get on paper is writing. You'll also get more out of learning these structures and ideals trying to apply them after you have a bit of time just floundering, getting a feel for the actual task.

  • And don't forget RTFM

    Jump

  • I choose to eschew my mouse when I can because it's easier. I don't have to move my arms around as much, and I can work quicker. It's more comfortable. All of this is a preference thing, why should anyone do something my way if it's not how they prefer?

  • European crash tester says carmakers must bring back physical controls

    Jump

  • You can type blind on a center console touchscreen, but you can't memorize the location of 6 buttons that don't move? I'm not buying it, doc. Besides, the buttons should at least have a ridge where the edges of them are, even if the buttons are smooth. If they're those shitty, completely smooth capacitive "buttons" that some electronics have anymore, I get not being able to discern them, but that's still the same problem as the touchscreen - no tactile feedback.

    I also wasn't exactly trying to say exactly how your radio is laid out, I have no idea on your specific model. My point was that the buttons don't move, they're always in the same spot, so you just learn where they are.

  • Mate there's like, a whole paragraph left in my comment. You can't safely type any navigation information while driving. If you want to use voice control to navigate, it doesn't really matter if it's physical controls or a touch screen. Maybe read the whole comment where all of this was already addressed.

  • Probably? I confess I don't know. Car accessories that use them are pretty common tho, so probably.

  • If the next button is to the right of the volume knob, always, and the play button is below the volume knob, always, and the previous button is to the left of the volume knob, always, then if you can find the volume knob, you can find those other controls. It's just a biiiiiit of learning your car's interface.

  • Compare it to a video game controller. Or a keyboard.All of my face buttons and keys have the same shape and size. I still know where they are, because I've used them each hundreds, thousands of times. You learn where they are, and if you don't immediately touch the right one, you can find it because they never move and you have feedback. A touch screen has zero feedback, and buttons are inconsistently placed, or 4 menus deep.

  • Touch screens are great in cars! For one purpose. The navigation. The touchscreen should only display navigation and function as a keyboard to search it, and only while the car is stationary. Everything else should have a physical control, at bare minimum as "backup"

  • Passkeys might really kill passwords

    Jump

  • Assuming you have a strong base password you aren't concerned with being broken, you can use that, followed by a unique identifier for what you're logging into, so every password is essentially the same, but also unique. Something like, translate the lyrics to a song (say without me by Eminem) to first letters and punctuations, 2tpggrto,rto,rto, and add the identifier.

    2tpggrto,rto,rto-goog 2tpggrto,rto,rto-faceb

    This is essentially how I manage my passwords that I want to actually remember. Just make sure you're not SUPER obvious with how you make the identifier, perhaps -g0og or -f4c3b0ok. And no, I don't use that song lol.
