There’s true currency inflation, which is dangerous to revert, but this is really talking about cost of living increases driven by tariffs and commodity pricing. Those can absolutely go back down without being a disaster for the economy.

Intercept isn’t the right word, but what they are doing is shady. The Bing search result for “Google” has results pushed down until they are nearly off the screen. They place what looks like a Google doodle (exploiting the fact that Google replaces their logo all the time) and a search box in the middle of the screen. It tricks the inattentive user into thinking it did what they meant for it to do, while still keeping them in Bingland.


They all focus on letting anyone run fast, which just makes them feel like autopilot.
Haste lets you run fast and actually gives the player control. It’s what a 3D Sonic should be.

The first part of this article, the Apple is enforcing X rule in Y situation part, is pretty interesting. Then it veers into crazy town by claiming that the software versioning and static release model is dead.
No, XL had official releases on Windows and Mac.


The trackpads on the Steamdeck/SC2 are much better than the SC1.
Valve was forced to stop manufacturing the SC1 due to patent trolling related to the paddles.

We’ll also be experimenting with reduced pod sizes, including one person teams with engineers, designers, and product managers all in one role.
Six months from now: Why does this financial app feel like it is six different amature solo projects bolted together?


The new law basically says “We don’t care where the user appears to be from, you have to assume they are from Utah”. Blocking Utah doesn’t help.


IIRC, Hertz has a history of reporting cars stolen while they are rented out, leading to normal customers getting arrested.


The most I know of his views is linked to inRange. One of the big sponsors in the space started being openly anti-trans. Karl wanted to stop doing business with them, Ian argued it was irrelevant.
That was one factor in Ian going from co-host of inRange to reoccurring guest.


He wasn’t tricked into kneecapping her campaign. Her campaign was being kneecapped by ratfuckery and he was trying to soften it.
Republicans handed something to the FBI that would force them to reopen the case, knowing that it wouldn’t show anything new, just so that they could then wail about the FBI keeping it quiet to help Clinton.


You are thinking of analog triggers, which work fine over Bluetooth. Adaptive triggers is game-controlled resistance and feedback within the trigger. A rifle trigger, for example, is light at first, then when you get close to the firing point it gets heavy for a moment and then ‘breaks’, suddenly going all the way.
This works on PC if you plug in via USB, but very few games support it on PC and Stam Input breaks it.
Haptics are high-quality rumble. Rumble is basically just turning a motor on and off, often in a high and a low mode. Modern controllers drive vibration motors at varying levels using a sound signal, giving far more nuanced control. They often also have more motors that are independently controlled. This also works when plugged in via USB.


Can’t think of two more fiction shows that I’d put up with those. If panel shows are allowed, 9. QI and 10. Taskmaster.


Big gap between the top two and the rest.
the primary giveaway that this is modern is the texture filtering on the checkerboard plane. OG renderers handled high-frequency detail really poorly, showing whatever color the sampler happened to hit. Modern renderers blend them to an average, grey in this case.


It’s not a different screen in SMB1. After you hit the axe, Mario walks to the right and the screen scrolls until the castle is off screen, revealing Peach and the ending text. It’s functionally just part of the level.


You absolutely do. Somebody getting shot at without real squibs? It’s an assistant director off camera shouting “BANG BANG BANG.” Phone conversation? AD reading the other lines off camera. Complex choreography? Good chance someone is calling cues.
Any audio can be replaced later, and most is no matter what.
Even in live theater, some productions use earwigs so that someone can give cues and adjust things on the fly if they go wrong.


Blahaj has the same color scheme as the trans flag and is cute.


If you are interested in the innards of an adaptation, rambling about old movies, and The Expanse, go watch/listen to Ty and That Guy. It is one of the authors of the series and one of the actors from the show going through it episode by episode talking about production, what doesn’t work, why certain things changed, etc.
Updated means you changed the title and it said something else before. Given that the reporting everyone is seeing states the opposite of your title, adding UPDATED to it implies that this is newer information, reversing the previous reporting that it was allowed.
You’ve made the incorrect-title problem worse.
