Actually, the first iteration of that interface was Windows Phone 7 and it was pretty terrific.

Also, just to follow up on this, it’s for the largest part not scientists that got us into this mess, whatever in particular that may be. The world would be much better off if people had more trust in science. That’s too much to demand though it seems, especially from boomers. So here we are, with populists messing stuff up and people like you blaming scientists for the results.
- Comment on Fictional 3 days ago:
i don’t like trusting scientists in fact. trusting scientists is how we got into this mess. people let themselves be manipulated by scientific results. people need to think for themselves. yes, that includes not believing certain scientific results, but IMO it’s better to deny a scientific result that I dislike and do not understand than trusting scientists that spent their entire lives researching that particular aspect of the universe
by the way i’m not a science denialist
Can’t make that shit up.

Aaaahhhhh, you’re one of those… Good to know. Yeah, your reply makes sense then. Also thanks for telling me early in the discussion that you’re just a science denialist, then we don’t need to waste precious time with a discussion about things that you’ll just disregard at will anyway.

welllll i say that’s a reaaaly sketchy and irrational way to look at things.
Okay? You be you, I guess. I mean, stupid physicist eggheads, what do they know?

Since the 1950s, it has been conjectured that quantum fluctuations of the spacetime metric might make the familiar notion of distance inapplicable below the Planck length.[23][37][22] This is sometimes expressed by saying that “spacetime becomes a foam at the Planck scale”.[38] It is possible that the Planck length is the shortest physically measurable distance, since any attempt to investigate the possible existence of shorter distances, by performing higher-energy collisions, would result in black hole production.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_units#Planck_length
Same is true for the Planck time, although the English Wikipedia is oddly blank for that one: there can be no space or time smaller than that within the physics that we have come up with.
- Comment on Fictional 4 days ago:
I think it’s (1 Planck length / 1 Planck time). If you take the smallest distance that exists and divide it by the shortest amount of time that can pass, you have exactly c.

I recently came across a song I hadn’t heard since my late teenage years. Just randomly popped up in my recommendations. I could still sing along every word. I felt so awesome. Then I checked out the song (because I wasn’t even sure who made it) and saw the tag: “dad rock”.
Yeah, age is showing.

And if i could i would select the physically attractive ones so that all people can have a girlfriend.
If you really think physical attractiveness is the major factor in finding a partner you should first grow up. Then, after that, you can discuss topics like the one you tried here. And hopefully, by then you’ll have a better understanding of what makes a life worth living and why it’s a bad idea to have eugenics.

- Comment on Game recommendations 2 months ago:
8 players is tough… We play quite some couch cooperative games, so here’s some recommendations. None of them for 8 at once though, I’m afraid.
- overcooked was already recommended. I second that. It’s great. But man, it’s intense, too… You can only play this with people who can laugh at themselves. I’ve heard purple say that this game might jeopardise friendships and I get it.
- lovers in a dangerous spacetime is a game I’m madly in love with. It’s a coop roguelike which mixes space and lasers (which worked well for some of our kids) with pink rainbow unicorn aesthetics (which worked well for the other kids) and is just all around great fun to play.
- boomerang fu was already recommended. I like the design and the the music has some real bangers, but it’s a competitive game which might lead to some conflict, depending on your group dynamics.
- unrailed cost us quite some hours as well. We really liked it, but imho it gets quite tough quite fast - we rarely got to the third of iirc ten biomes. Maybe it’s because we always play it with our kids. Maybe we just suck at it. Despite this issue, we sunk quite some hours into it because it just still works well.
- Trine is three players coop only… It’s a platformer. I didn’t like the design so much, but my kids love it, so I guess that’s still a good verdict.
- pixel cup soccer is our go-to soccer game. It’s obviously a simple arcade game, but it’s fun.
- Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed is our Not-Mario-Kart Kartracer and it works well. Not a fan of the tanks in there for a kid’s game though.
- the Jack’s party box games or whatever they’re called are a kind of mixed bag, but drawful is great fun. It’s also the only game on this list for 8 players. You draw stuff on a phone or a tablet and there’s a well-working mechanic to make people guess what was drawn.
- while I haven’t played it yet (waiting for a deal), Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge is supposedly a great take on classic streets of rage style beat em ups.
- Rayman: Origins is a beautifully made and well designed platformer that can be played cooperatively with up to four people. True classic imho.
- for a quick party session, our kids love ultimate chicken horse where you build a level and then race through it. Tbh, for me it didn’t really provide too much replayability, but hey, if the kids like it, who am I to judge?

With AIs, it’s the same. It’s not an issue if your teacher gives you an assignment that allows our requires you to use it. But using it despite not being allowed to is cheating. Same as the calculator.
This one?

The point still stands. If you get an assignment, you can use the tools that are allowed. If ai isn’t allowed, using it is cheating. It’s not a hard concept.

The thing is that people get a calculator after they understood how the operations work and have mastered them.

No, of course it didn’t say that. But of course he doesn’t invite people over who he can’t trust with that kind of information. So his friends, closer allies or whatever you might call it. Imagine inviting someone over just to have them spill the beans to your family afterwards because you had the wrong impression of their loyalties and values. No way the people that were there weren’t in on it.

So what? Things are mostly valued by what the projected performance is, not the prior performance.
Also it seems that Krafton assumed they would miss the performance criteria, so they thought they’d bought it for $500 million. That doesn’t sound unreasonable for a studio that made $250 million with a single release and already had more in its pipeline.
