Ehhh… Disagree. It allows the scene to linger on the anxiety, which helps the pacing.

If you beleive them, as far as I recall, Valve has said that they were working on the Steam Deck before the switch was revealed.

“Did you run the formatter on this?”

Bonus points if it’s python code and nowhere in the docs does it say which of the many formatters to use.

People playing Rust code while they sleep so they can learn it through osmosis.

There’s a package called molly-guard which will check to see if you are connected via ssh when you try to shut it down. If you are, it will ask you for the hostname of the system to make sure you’re shutting down the right one.

Very usefull program to just throw onto servers.

Was before my time, but iirc C and other (then) high level languages were supposedly able to put programmers out of jobs.

Ah yes, Brexit.

I don’t wanna wait that long. ;_;

I played Braid ages ago, and it was okay. I can see it being influential when it first came out when there wasn’t many indie games.

Don’t think I really want to play it again though - it told it’s story and that was that. Unless it adds tons more levels or something, I’m not sure what value the remaster adds.

It’s sadly one of many “platformers with interesting mechanics but slow and clunky controls” that the industry has moved away from.

Whitespace isn’t semantically important. Ticket closed.

Okay, this nerd sniped me super hard. Sure you can spend it on a big massive project like a mansion or whatever, but you aren’t going to be able to have it finished (and thus paid for) in a month.

Not too mention if you do want to drop that much money at one, there’ll be many checks in place. Your bank will block your account for “suspicious activity”. The person who you are paying will probably want to run a background check or just refuse to take payment up front.

You’d have to justify where you got that money from as well, most likely, and saying a “genie” probably would get you some strange looks and perhaps arrested.

I legit don’t know how you’d actually get rid of that much money in a month.

I used to think this way, then it was pointed out to me that, without timezones, we’d be in a situation where Saturday starts mid-workday in some places.

If you’re serious about getting help from the community, open source the game and/or provide concrete questions on what code you want to improve.

I have never wanted to play a game so hard in my life. It seems to have the atmosphere of Inscryption, the gameplay of Papers Please and a lot of buttons and knobs to mess around with.

Hire that frog.

One small thing but I’m surprised nobody points it out - the charging port location. I like using my switch/steam deck in bed or otherwise laying down, and the fact that the charging lead is at the bottom of the console rather than the top sucks. It just gets in the way and stops you resting the console on you. Whereas the Steam Deck just has it on top where you can just plug it in while playing.

I know the technical reasons behind it because of the dock and all that, but it’s annoying.

In general, I think the steam deck is better than the switch in almost every way - The switch is just an expensive ticket for the right to play Nintendo games nowadays.

But how does an orb person drink coffee!?

That view feels overly romanticised to me, tbh; the idea that the way to stop racism is to just not acknowledge it. That not drawing attention to things will just make it go away.

There’s a lot of institutionalised racism in many countries, either due to racism itself or as a knock on effect from other failed systems.

And, of course, there’s just plain bigotry that is passed patent to child and from social group to social group. That’s not going to stop by just censoring media.

The message of this comic is, basically, “here’s some unconscious biases you could be making”. Reading it as “this is how you’re supposed to talk to black people” is… Well, if that’s the reading you make, then whether the comic exists or not isn’t going to change anything.

It feels like this sort of thing makes people feel uncomfortable and they try to justify the removal of the media rather than grappling with the concept of privilege (which, tbf, is hard for people to do).

(Technically aren’t half the white people in the comic not actually being racist?)
