Wellllll in most driving games you accelerate and brake with the triggers though, and the left stick does nothing on the vertical axis :P

Okay for real though, I’m not here to tell anyone how to game. Use whatever feels right for you, and having the option to invert stick axes is a great inclusivity feature I’d never argue against! I just have a little too much fun arguing with people trying to rationalize something that really just doesn’t need to be rationalized to be valid.

If you see the stick as the top of your character’s head, you’d have to twist it to look left or right. Tilting it would just rotate the image you see under that mental model

if you lean forward you look down - why would controls be any different?

By that logic, tilting the stick to the left should either make you look to the right, or just rotate the view without actually changing the direction you’re looking in

YYYYMMDDHHmm is probably one of the most normal date-time formats

No, it absolutely isn’t outside the tech sphere

Idk know what editor you’re using, but it worked perfectly fine out of the box with IntelliJ. Nothing compared to the hassle of setting up a proper Eslint setup for typescript, honestly.

And I’m not trying to defend python here, I don’t touch that language except under duress, and I do prefer C-style code blocks as well. But this is kind of a pointless argument.

Watching Total Forgiveness on dropout right now, this is very apropos lol

there is a direct correlation between the size of the campaign and the number of monitors at the bottom.

From my limited experience, it’s the size/amount of monitors at the top that correlates with company size, not at the bottom. At my 5-person software company, almost everyone works with multiple screens, except one of the three founders who still works mainly on a laptop display at least

How do you have your shortcuts set up for this? And if you don’t mind me asking, what desktop environment / window manager are you using?

ELVEs (Emissions of Light and Very Low Frequency perturbations due to Electromagnetic Pulse Sources)

This has to be one of the most shoehorned acronyms I’ve ever seen

I don’t have any experience with Mega/Mattel stuff so far, so can’t really compare those. From what I hear, the quality of pieces is okay, but not on the same level as Lego and gobricks (the manufacturer that provides the bricks for both Lumibricks and Pantasy, among others).

If you actually want to give them a shot, just make sure you get relatively recent-ish sets (released within the last 2 years or so), as especially Lumibricks has very rapidly been refining the quality of their set designs, instructions etc, and gobricks pieces from before that time also tend to have quite strong clutch power which they’ve softened up by now. It’s really cool to see how quickly things are improving at the high end currently

My recommendation is Lumibricks or Pantasy. They’re not quite 1/3 of the price of Lego, more around 1/2 on average I think, but both offer the best brick quality that you’re going to get from any company at the moment (they use the same supplier, gobricks). They’re also both offering exclusively original designs, so no copied sets or anything like that, and doing a lot of stuff setting them apart from Lego. Lumibricks has light kits integrated seamlessly into every set and goes hard on printed pieces, no stickers anywhere. Pantasy likes using lots of metallic painted pieces, bigger custom molded pieces, and has a few interesting IPs.

If you’re into Technic, there’s also CaDa, and if you want very accurate display models you could look into Cobi. The later is a polish company that designs and produces entirely in Europe, in contrast to any other brand out there, but that also comes with a price tag that’s pretty similar to Lego at this point.

Bluebrixx is definitely around that 1/3 of lego prices. They are hit or miss though when it comes to quality as they use different brick suppliers for different sets, and it’s not always easy to know what you’re getting beforehand.

When have you last tried? The competition has changed immensely during the last couple of years, and there are brands now that have it dialed in just as well as Lego. I highly recommend checking out Lumibricks or Pantasy, those are best in class at the moment, and actually better than Lego in many ways, imo. Or maybe Cada, if you’re more into the Technic side of things

I think the idea is to pressure the partners of Collective Shout, per the url in the comment. Those might not necessarily agree with what they’re doing in this case, and if they see it’s making waves, reconsider their partnership.

Wie bei allen Gesetzen die absolute monetäre Grenzen setzen sollte eine automatische Inflationsanpassung eingebaut sein, dann wäre zumindest das schonmal ein non-issue

Go for it! Doesn’t even need that much investment as long as you’re familiar with self-hosting. Just install it and see how it goes with new photos, and you can still backfill your old photos later. There is a tool that even lets you migrate your entire Google photos account, including albums, favorites etc super easily from Google takeout

It’s not giving you proactive notifications for it, but yes, that’s the one. It’s just available on top of your timeline just like in Google photos.

It fetches them as needed, much like Google photos. Every photo in the timeline has a little icon on it telling you whether it’s on your device or only on the server. You can have Immich installed on several devices and see photos from all of them on any of them no problem

The only slowness I’ve experienced so far is that the android app can get a bit sluggish when scrolling around in the middle of my timeline, or inside bigger albums. Everything else totally smooth though
