- Comment on Bethesda Gifts Everybody in the Skyblivion Team a Copy of Oblivion Remastered 1 day ago:
Did they actually remake everything in UE5? I thought they only use that for rendering, with all the logic still running in the original engine.
- Comment on Here the fuck we go again 2 days ago:
Nope! AFAIK Unreal is only used for rendering, not logic. So you’ll get the bugs from Bethesdas engine with the performance of Unreal 5.

The information you use is only related to the last object the light interacted with, not the light itself (with the small exception being the “brightness” - that has nothing to do with the object).
This is obviously false, otherwise all objects would look the same under any color of light - yet they don’t. This example actually shows that it is only the light itself that matters!
No one claims to hear the air in their ears rather than the violin that is being played nearby. That’s just not what the word “hear” means.
But everyone would agree that we’re hearing the sound waves produced by the violin. Again, a great example counter to your point, as the equivalent to a sound wave is the photon.

Ah yes, that’s famously why screens literally build tiny versions of the world inside them. We don’t see the light, we see the objects!

- Comment on Swedish amplifier enables transmission of 10x more data per second 1 week ago:
I’m only making assumptions, but I’d guess that 300nm is the range of frequencies it can amplify. AFAIK fibre cables are used with multiple “channels” by sending data with different frequencies at once. Say your signal range is centered around 850nm, this amplifier could amplify in the range of 700-1000nm.
But I might be totally off, just guessing.
- Comment on Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len() 1 week ago:
Yes, the first example does the same thing, but there’s still less to mentally parse. Ideally you should just use
if len(my list) == 0:. - Comment on Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len() 1 week ago:
This is honestly the worst version regarding readability. Don’t rely on implicit coercion, people.

It was a guess. I know pictrs has some functionality for that to block CP being uploaded to Lemmy instances, maybe look at the repo, that should have some info :)
- Comment on Limited edition orange juice mint condition looking for trade 2 weeks ago:
No, I just remember seeing posts in Lemmy admin spaces about DB migrations used to block the text, not sure where.
- Comment on Limited edition orange juice mint condition looking for trade 2 weeks ago:
I wonder if this is to circumvent automatic blocks? They started including the text in the image for similar reasons.

Nintendo is a shitty company and companies in general do shitty anti consumer things, but passing along tariff costs isn’t one of these.
