Obligatory “fuck Notch” but I really liked the idea of 0x10c when it was announced.

That’s not an outlandish amount of storage. You can get more than that for $200.

You can’t gift, sell, share, or play that game on a new device once the servers shut down.

I’ve worked on a library that’s Python because the users of said library are used to Python.

The original version of the project made heavy use of numpy, so the actual performance sensitive code was effectively C++ and fourtran, which is what numpy is under the hood.

We eventually replaced the performance sensitive part of the code with Rust (and still some fourtran because BLAS) which ended up being about 10x faster.

The outermost layer of code is still Python though.

It lacks the main benefit of a digital game: not needing to keep the card with you.

It lacks the main benefit of a physical game: not needing an internet connection, which also means these fake cartridges will stop working once servers shut down

It captures the vibe of having a physical card, which I appreciate, but that’s about it. Otherwise it’s worthless.

I certainly won’t lol. I’m actually running a custom build of the mobile app with some tweaks.

Built on Moonlight! That’s what I use already lol.

For the most part it’s best to use system provided sorting implementations, but somebody has to write those implementations, so every once in a while somebody needs to do it (in practice by looking up a reference implementation of course).

But also it’s good to understand things like big O scaling and why we use quicksort rather than a naive insertion sort and when to use quick sort vs merge sort or some other form of stable sort.

Honestly $80 price tag on new game is not that bad. The $60 standard has not kept up with inflation.

Everything else though … paying to use the better performance of the new hardware for games like Zelda, paid advertisement demo app, lack of OLED on an HDR console, especially when the previous gen had OLED, same faulty joystick technology, dedicated subscription service ad button on the controller…

Huh? My actual GameCube controller works with all games on the Switch 1, although it doesn’t have all the buttons used by some games.

In particular it would be absurd if this new GameCube controller doesn’t work with Smash Ultimate.

Can confirm I did it like 3 times before I just started installing 3rd party Hall effect switches.

Nice hot take haha. Tbh I like being under-leveled in Pokemon because it’s way too easy most of the time. There definitely is some backtracking in Emerald, although I personally really liked the varied environments. I think it has a lot more variation than gens 1,2 and 4.

We don’t really detect direction of light exactly. Instead we detect the location in the eye where the light landed, and have lenses to focus the light onto our retina. That relationship does imply some of the directionality of the light, by ignoring light that goes in certain directions and relating the direction of light that does get detected to the location it ends up.

Helldivers 2

It’s primarily 3rd person but then again so is Warframe.

Do you use Steam?

Maybe the 50hrs is just to weed out scalpers attempting to make new accounts to buy multiple.

50hours of gameplay over the lifetime of a console is not that much. I have like 200 hours in BOTW alone.

My friends can all see how much I’ve played my Steam games and I don’t see anyone complaining about that.

lol if this happens to me it will be the straw that pushes me to uninstall Nvidia’s app and go back to manual driver installs

Using a song as an alarm sound only works if it’s locally downloaded in Music and there are some codec and bitrate restrictions as well, but this is never explained anywhere. I’ve had to figure it out by trial and error.

At the very least there should be a warning in the Alarm app when you choose a song as an alarm that isn’t going to work.

I have my dock and top bar set to auto-hide and my windows typically take up the full screen, wasting no space at all.
