Definitely anything SuperGiant. Bastion, Hades, and Transistor are some of the only games I’ve actually finished, and the sound tracks are incredible.

ChewTiger ,

Good to hear they’ve had some success in the US, but I do worry about the quality of their consumer products. Too many companies can’t translate success in onr section of a market into another section.

I really want a small EV.

ChewTiger ,

Right? Like what if as cells die or degrade instead of being replaced by the body naturally they are replaced by nanites/cybernetics/tech magic. If the process of fully converting took place over the course of 10 years, then I don’t see how the subject would even notice.

It’s an interesting thing to ponder.

ChewTiger ,

Yeah, experiencing that is a horror I wouldn’t wish on anyone. That’s a true nightmare.

I don’t think having kids of my own is in my future, I hope I can live my life with enough intent and purpose to avoid this date. Thank you both for this thread, it’s gotten me thinking.

ChewTiger ,

I’m entertained, I need a book in this universe.

ChewTiger ,

Odd thing to be that annoyed by. I don’t understand people who obsess over the way other people’s houses look. Unless you have an expensive car or a project car it seems like a waste of good space to store a car in the garage. But hey, to each their own.

If I had a garage it would totally be used for shop space and storage. Most people here seem to use their garages as additional space. My car can survive the rain just fine outside. The tools and equipment I wish I had space for, not so much.

Shame you let other people’s reasonable decisions bother you. Not everyone wants to obsess over opening a car.

Waffle stomp gets me laughing every time in any context.

ChewTiger ,

What a trash bag of a human being.

ChewTiger ,

I’ll say the same thing I just said in another post.

What a trash bag of a human being.

Doesn’t mean we can’t learn from them. The process of developing those models can be incredibly useful in learning about complex steps. They help us understand what conditions and variables are important to look into. We can figure out what we know a lot about and what is still a complete mystery.

Turbulent airflow is an incredibly complicated thing, we still haven’t fully solved the Navier+Stokes equations. I hope to be alive when someone does.

Just because they don’t perfectly figure it out the first time doesn’t mean we should stop putting effort into incremental improvements. Though we do have to be careful that we are not wasting resources when there is a more efficient path forward. Simulations are one of many important tools, we just have to use them wisely.

ChewTiger ,

Makes sense. Also my Google TV let me connect my headphones.

ChewTiger ,

I switched my gaming PC to Linux two months ago and I’m loving it. I’ve only had to boot my Windows drive twice.

ChewTiger ,

That was an incredible read, thanks for sharing it. Please keep sharing it!

ChewTiger ,

The thing is he’s running for president and likes to accuse people of things. It makes sense people are going to look towards him first when shit starts flying around. Dudes into shady stuff, spent decades ripping people off or “getting a good deal” depending on your disposition.

Regardless, let them all burn, let’s find someone competent in the ashes. If someone is corrupt it’s in all our best interests to dump them, regardless of political affiliation, and find someone who believes in more than themselves.

ChewTiger ,

The same as a closed source one? What does charging something have to do with an app? I’m not even sure what you’re saying.

ChewTiger ,

I’d take Microsoft shot over anything Musk.

ChewTiger ,

They are not talking about going to school but having people at the school do the dental work.

Three gaming-focused Linux operating systems beat Windows 11 in gaming benchmarks (www.tomshardware.com)

Nobara OS, Arch Linux and Pop!_OS beat Windows 11 by a slim margin in fps (delta 8) in Windows native games - Cyberpunk 2077, Forspoken, Starfield and The Talos Principle II. Windows 11 wins in Rachet & Clank....

ChewTiger ,

I switched to Mint this month and have only run into issues with anti-cheat. I’ve tried about 8 different games. Halo Infinite had some odd textures the first time I ran it, but not since.

All in all I’m very happy with my OS switch.

ChewTiger ,

My positive experience with my Steam Deck got me to take the plunge and now I’m happily gaming on Mint.

ChewTiger ,

Yeah, I don’t think “mentally ill people” only exist in specific places or that specific areas are “full” of them. I mean, I know for sure at least one deranged person lives in your area.

Also I highly doubt you truly worked in retail if you never experienced a customer like this. If you did, you must have been lucky and in an extremely high end store.

People are the same everywhere in the world, no better or worse than anywhere else. Which is kinda great IMO.

Apple announces that RCS support is coming to iPhone next year (9to5mac.com)

In a surprising move, Apple has announced today that it will adopt the RCS (Rich Communication Services) messaging standard. The feature will launch via a software update “later next year” and bring a wide range of iMessage-style features to messaging between iPhone and Android users....

ChewTiger ,

I don’t message anyone with an iPhone. Other than the different colored bubbles what does it do? How is the quality degraded?

It just seems like Apple kept it separate so their obsessed fans would have something to feel superior about.

ChewTiger ,

Lol I’m going to call it that too. Taiwan #1!

ChewTiger ,

We pay plenty in taxes to cover healthcare already. It’s just wasted on a bloated military budget. That and lobbyists prevent any changes that would negatively impact the healthcare industry’s bottom line.

ChewTiger ,

The problem is the improper distribution of resources, not overpopulation. If we truly tried we could sustainably support our current population and work on healing the world.

Talking about intentional population control is a fat too slippery slope.

ChewTiger ,

I don’t think everyone sat down and agreed to that being what plus means. It’s like labeling food as organic, it means nothing. It’s just a name. Odd thing to obsess over, you’ll get nowhere trying to understand marketing people, just let it go.

What they are adding is a more condensed experience accessing NASA content and making it easier for casual viewers to access. The more people paying attention to science the better. I think this is a fantastic move from NASA

ChewTiger ,

I believe that is our destiny as millennials, to turn the tide and act as brakes on the growing insanity in the world. I also believe that we can do it.

ChewTiger ,

Armored Core 6, yeah it’s probably not going to end well for me.

ChewTiger ,

I also stick to a one page resume, but I brought a portfolio showing my work in greater detail. I’m an engineer so it was pictures of projects, technical drawings, and some stress analysis stuff. It seemed to help and I’m enjoying the company. So I guess I did both of the above.

Maybe I’ll manage to do some hobby stuff that’s worth including next time.

ChewTiger ,

Because Android users routinely install Apple apps. Most people will never know that the app exists. While yes Apple did do something, in reality it doesn’t do much. Though it would definitely be useful if you get suspicious that someone is stalking you.

It’d be best if these trackers used an open standard that could be detected by the operating system instead of relying on an app.

ChewTiger ,

When I was like 11 I made two emails, one with a dumb name and another more professional one that’s just my name. I didn’t want to send emails to adults with the dumb name one because I didn’t want to explain it.

11 year old me was way too serious.

ChewTiger ,

The power to be comfortable in any environment in just shorts and a T-shirt. No sunburn, no soggy shoes in the rain, warm while sitting in a snow drift.

ChewTiger ,

Drop used to be so much better before the rename.

ChewTiger ,

Yeah this isn’t true. While automation has made machines more effective than humans in many cases, they haven’t made human labor less effective. Not sure why you would think that. Advances in tools and software have made every sector of the workforce more productive. There’s a million little things.

They have flattops at fast food places that cook the top and the bottom of the burger patty at the same time. So one worker can do more. Roofers have faster and lighter nail guns letting them work for longer. Hell, when I did lawn care as a teen you’d see another crew with some fancy new mower every month, and the improvements were usually worth the costs.

ChewTiger ,

Yeah, they really did have a good run worthy of being proud of. I think a lot of people subconsciously think the businesses they see every day will be around forever, forgetting that nothing lasts forever. Least of all an entity whose driving goal is just to make money by any means possible for an aimless mob of shareholders headed by sociopathic elites. Any means possible isn’t how you build the foundation of something that lasts decades or longer like this business.

What’s really funny to me is how the same people who scream about survival of the fittest in capitalism are the first to approve of corporate bailouts. I’m starting to call it corporate socialism to see if it makes them hate bailouts due to the dreaded “s” word.

ChewTiger ,

Pretty much all data has margins of error, including “real life data”. The margin of error just often doesn’t matter.

ChewTiger ,

Wouldn’t the fillers be obvious just by looking at it? It’s not like magazines are bigger than they need to be.

ChewTiger ,

Love your praying with that last sentence.

ChewTiger ,

Wait…what? I’m struggling to comprehend this level of nonsense.

ChewTiger ,

That knowledge shouldn’t be gained through the barbaric butchery of helpless animals.The research should at the very least be conducted in a manner that is respectful to the animals.

There is no reason for them to live lives of terror only to die brutally. Considering how much this technology could advance humanity giving them more comfortable and smiling lives during this whole process costs effectively nothing.

ChewTiger ,

I question the humanity of anyone who can read that and not be upset.

ChewTiger ,

Sometimes the old has to be burned down to prepare the ground for new growth.

ChewTiger ,

I don’t care what other people drink. In fact I love it when people show me their favorite drinks. Even if I don’t like it I enjoy the experience of something new. I get bored very easily.

That being said, I moved to the Pacific Northwest a few years ago and it seems like local breweries only make IPAs. They’ll have like eight local or inhouse brews and 7 will be IPAs. I just miss the variety I used to be able to find in other parts of the country. It also seems a little lazy and uncreative on the brewery’s side.

ChewTiger ,

Mine acted similar to yours. I recently started watching a few more short videos and now it’s showing me an unfortunate amount of that far right nonsense.

ChewTiger ,

IDK, if we’re comparing scourges against humanity I’d say “the rich” in general are worse, be they kings, CEOs, religious icons, politicians, or whatever. Their pursuit of money and the power to keep that money corrupts everything. They ruin everything from companies to countries and even religions (makes them even worse).

Really though, the most evil thing is cancer. It kills indiscriminately and tortures its victims the whole way. Even if you win, you never get the peace of knowing it’s truly gone. True evil.

ChewTiger ,

Would definitely be a step in the right direction. I’d even be ok with exceptions for the tiny churches in small towns.

ChewTiger ,

Not sure which I like more. I think I’ll use both.

ChewTiger ,

I know hardware compatibility has massively improved, but back when I was messing with Linux in high school compatibility was a huge issue. I managed to end up with two laptops and some desktop hardware that were truly difficult to get running. It’s like I somehow found a list of incompatible hardware and chose the worst options.

The most frustrating were an evil Broadcom (I think) wireless card and an AMD switchable card (they did actually make a few). That graphics card wasn’t supported for very long and was a bother even in Windows.

Edit to add: I was just saying that to point out why some people might have that opinion, even if it isn’t valid anymore. I’m actually thinking of jumping back on the Linux bandwagon.

ChewTiger ,

Can they drag a few others down with them?
