Wind? And binary cycle geothermal plants but not sure how common they are.

Here’s a documentary about the monkeys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkLeto3RZrk

How are they a gatekeeper? Near monopoly sure. But they don’t force companies to only publish on Steam. They don’t have restrictive rules. I’m not sure what gate they are keeping.

That’s fun. I tested positive for ecoli last week and live in Colorado. Nothing to do with McDonalds tho. Got it from a recent overseas trip.

This isn’t new, at all. They’re just being more transparent about it. It feels shitty that transparency is met by outrage stemming from ignorance. Just buy from GoG.

A few extra meters wouldn’t be too drastic. From the top of Everest the horizon is about 300km away.

They were released everywhere in the US for a similar reason. Towns wanted squirrels for the furry aesthetic. Before squirrels just hung out in the forest.

Yep that one exists. I’m currently working on the 10 year achievement in Stanley Parable Deluxe. It’s good to have long-term concrete goals.

Also Snowpiercer.

Nice catch. I usually do but it slipped my mind.

Nice harder drive. Here’s a vid of more examples of silly ways to store data: https://youtu.be/JcJSW7Rprio

These would be solicited technically.

Any Paradox game. Oxygen Not Included. Factorio. Civilization. Rimworld. Dwarf Fortress. The list goes on.

For me I think it’s about having non-stop and parallel mini problems/puzzles/goals. By the time one task is finished. There’s two more to take its place.

I’ve used Comcast and CenturyLink. I would say CenturyLink, while not perfect, is miles better than Comcast. I pay $70 for gigabit: symmetric, no data cap, never had an outage, monthly contract. Only had to deal with support once when I was returning their router.

Comcast had shitty uploads, long contracts, data caps, outages, shitty support, would call me randomly trying to sell me TV plans. I had a Comcast tech cut random wires in the network closet for my building and gave me an outage when I was using Starry, they’re beyond horrible.

I would say the biggest downsides of wireless would be inconsistent/high latency and throttling/network congestion. Are you sure there’s no fiber near you? CenturyLink or Webpass(Google Fiber) might be around. There’s also Starry nearby that does point to point wireless which doesn’t have the same downsides as 5G.

As others have mentioned, there are two schools of thought.

Crisp 4K rendering, no jagged lines, higher details added in textures, etc

Or emulating the look of a CRT by using high density displays to create the same look.

https://youtu.be/-B5ebucZ69s?si=0lDLAWdMlN77VQen goes into it a bit. This shows off a device for actual consoles. But the same principal applies when doing it in software for emulators.

Awesome work! Looking forward to trying it out. I remember reading HDR support was on the roadmap, when is that planned?

I agree, which is why I said “Everyone’s situation is different and not everyone has the flexibility to move” below.

Some places you can commute with transit and some places you cannot. The original thread was making the statement that you could not commute in the US without a car.

I would move to somewhere closer? Even when I regularly drove I would move, take a different job, etc instead of dealing with a long commute. To me it’s just not worth it.

You say obviously but the original thread was started by someone who made a blanket statement about the US. There are millions of people in the US who commute without a car. I was curious and looked up some data: https://data.census.gov/table/ACSST1Y2018.S0801?q=S0801:+COMMUTING+CHARACTERISTICS+BY+SEX&hidePreview=true

• 85.3% commute by car
• 9.3% commute by other means
• the rest WFH

I would even argue that some of that 85% could switch to transit with very little effort. But as the OP stated, I think there is a cultural aversion to transit in the US. So there’s some of that 85% who could use transit but choose not to.
