Least concerning Renault engine
- Comment on [deleted] 1 day ago:
That is almost 3 times the highway speed limit and roughly 83 m/s if I got the math right. At that speed the car will travel 40m on average before you even press the brake pedal, then the average car will take probably about 1s (which I think is conservatively low) of emergency braking to stop (or almost), traveling another 83m.

It becomes effectively, from an emotional standpoint, like their child.
It’s the same with code. It involves more basic logic than art but it’s still creative work imo. Hell, there’s even artistic forms of coding.

They (save for a smarter minority) are 100% gonna decide that pesticides are more important. Until they learn they aren’t, but it will be too late.

Care might not have been the right word. I care about my code too, but we know our work belongs to the company so we don’t get too attached. The thing that hurts the most with these layoffs is stopping working with the people (or entire teams) you had a good work relationship with, and, of course, suddenly being out of work.

I can tell you that no professional (non indie) gamedev cares about that. We know damn well we have no rights over the stuff we make for our overlords.
- Comment on Prosecutors seek seven-year jail term for ex-president Sarkozy in Libya trial 1 week ago:
Dude should get a life sentence. He also ordered illegal wiretaps of the people investigating this (already got jail time for that one), and supported the Libyan civil War, probably for the sole purpose of getting rid of Gaddafi and the dirt he had on him.

The Outer Wilds was a first game from an indie studio. On this basis alone it was practically guaranteed to not get the success it deserved. And it does deserve a ton of it.
Conversely, call of duty is literally one of the most notorious franchises in the entire industry, and pretty much sells on its name alone.
- Comment on The specter of a GTA 6 delay haunts the games industry: 'Some companies are going to tank' if they guess wrong, says analyst 1 week ago:
If the game is good, doesnt need an active playerbase to survive (ie isn’t entirely based on multiplayer), and the company is already reputable, it has no reasons to not sell decently in the long run. Also if the company’s future is jeopardized by a single game not doing well, I’m sorry but it’s not well managed. Ask me how I know.

As a man I wanted to clarify that I am also easily fascinated by cheese

if you thinking that a game even releasing in the same month as GTA6 won’t have a permanent impact on that games sales, you’re smoking the reefer.
Maybe they should stop trying to peddle bland-ass live action games that live and die by their players numbers then. A good solo game might take a hit to its initial sales but should recover in the long run.

It’s incredibly hard to properly benchmark your PC’s capabilities just from some hardware specs. You need an actual benchmark for that, which takes time and usually slows the machine to a crawl

Honestly, not a bad feature for once. I have seen people build (or get others to build for them) the weirdest fucking systems.

- Comment on Ten reasons to avoid Amazon | Ethical Consumer 3 weeks ago:
Another good “trick” is waiting two weeks once you find the thing you “need” before actually buying it. If you forget or change your mind in these two weeks, you didn’t need it that much. Plus it gives more time to think and potentially find a better product

Thank you for this useful insight. What do I do when my eyes quickly adapt to this stupidly bright light in my peripheral vision and I now can’t see anything in my own headlights ?
I have tried closing my left eye before, out of desperation. Doesn’t really work and I wouldn’t recommend losing depth perception while driving.
- Comment on You guys have to end it 4 weeks ago:
Not saying you’re wrong in general but
if you need to stop on any kind of hill, you have to be aware your gonna need half a car length or more to get into gear where your just going to be falling down that hill while you convince yourself you don’t need to panic and you will catch the gear before you’re past the point of no return
My shitty Toyota Aygo has a hill start assist thing and it works very well. Also handbrake start is right there in the OP, (and a mandatory part of drivers ed over here)

Well I just don’t think that many survival games did that to copy Minecraft. If anything they were probably more influenced by DayZ which also had a hotbar as a Arma mod

Hotbars have been around long before Minecraft
