Looks like newer euro coins include Norway, but that wasn’t always the case, leading to this unfortunate creation:

Psychologist? They just pump your head full of ideas that there’s something wrong with you.

Don’t trust them. If you want a brain doctor go to an astrologist.

Huh. I’ve never seen much slight of hand magic in person, and until now I wouldn’t have thought that would be my reaction. But I can totally see a 1-on-1 close up performance like that feeling very invasive.

Edit: I reread your message, and I missed the double negative in your sentence. Did you mean games never run better with DLSS?

That is odd. DLSS should definitely net you a handful of frames. Games often run better with ray tracing on and DLSS on quality vs native without ray tracing, sometimes doubling it. Some newer titles I find are only playable (at the very least 60 fps) because of DLSS (which is a whole problem in and of itself). I absolutely prefer running without any sort of temporal AA because of smudges and ghosting.

Well. They can stop updating the open source code, create manifest v4 and now all chromium browsers are shit out of luck.

My only real gripe with it so far (only 6 hours logged because I’ve been waiting for improvements) is the performance. Like when I installed kcd 2 now I expected to have to go in and turn down some settings because the first one was quite heavy to run. But no, right out the box it runs amazingly on all ultra (with dlss enabled as a caveat). I’m just waiting for some random youtuber to say “oh the deva forgot to set this one flag in the level editor and now it runs three times better”.

One issue with that is China is still a heavily bike and moped driven country. The issue is when more of their population is able to afford cars. So they could still “catch up”.

That’s the more vicious part of it. How do we know what this experience they want to serve us is. A more pessimistic read could be they sell everything we type to ad companies and claim targeted ads are totally enhancing our experience.

I read it as “you type a URL in the address bar, we’ll take you there. You want to search for something using the search bar? We got you, we’ll forward your search to the search engine of your choice. All free of charge.”

It’s just worded in such generic legal wording it makes you gag. But them pointing it out so explicitly just makes me more suspicious lol. I think it’s fine for now, just another wall of text to keep an eye on for any future modifications.

And firing her specifically will fix this problem how?

I’ll take the bait. Why?

I agree kotlin can be a cool language sometimes. And I’m sure it’s been a more gradual journey if you’ve worked with it while it’s been evolving. But man, jumping in at Android 10/11 having to remain compatible with 7 (we’ve moved up to a minimum of 10 now thankfully) with how much background services and file storage permissions changed right around that time was an extreme headache to work around.

But I definitely prefer C#'s async/await Tasks than trying to wrap my head around all the various coroutine scopes, runBlocking and all that jazz. I know they are very similar concepts, but there’s just something with coroutines that isn’t clicking in my head.

Android is the worst environment I’ve ever worked in. Concurrency? Use Threads! No wait, we got handlers and loopers now. Oh wait sorry, we’re doing coroutines this year.

Now let’s do DI with Koin. But ooh google released their own version with Dagger, but oh no! It’s clunky to use, so well slap some more stuff in top and call it Hilt!

Networking, persistent storage, UI, permission flows, any other API they have follow the same pattern of new shiny thing, oh it didn’t turn out very good, here’s a new thing to replace the old. Congrats, every blog and SO answer is now outdated. Even the build system has gone from Maven to Gradle in Groovy to Gradle using Kotlin.

And don’t get me started on Android Studio itself. The worst IDE I’ve ever touched. Any changes to the manifest and now you need to manually sync the project. Be prepared to create a shortcut to gradle’s cache folder for easy deleting whenever it shits the bed.

Fuck Android development, I hope I’ll never have to touch it again after this job.

I guess I do it for a couple of reasons. My mind wanders a lot, looking at myself keeps me a bit focused and ensures I don’t do anything silly. I also try to put myself as close to the camera as I can, I know you often come off better looking into the camera when speaking.

Can’t believe you didn’t build a little outpost on that mountain!

If they didn’t want to have a face they shouldn’t have evolved two small rings above a large ring!

That’s the joke. Greedo shooting first was a poor edit made in later editions, because god forbid the smuggler plays a bit dirty sometimes. If you look closely Han’s head just shifts to the side like someone cut it out in Paint. It was the start of the downfall of the originals tragic remaster journey.

I mean, there is definitely a crowd that don’t like women as lead characters. While not directly related to movies, just see how a bit of peach fuzz on Aloy upset people when they showed off the new Horizon game. And that’s not a poorly written game or character.

Something like Captain Marvel does suit your argument; a poorly written character and movie, so people who criticise it get lumped in with the “women are bad” crowd. But there definitely are people who just hate things that put women in the spotlight.

Edit: fix shockingly poor grammar and spelling.

It isn’t open source, which makes it’s hard to verify their claims, but Magic Earth uses OSM data and has traffic data in some countries. It has worked really well for me in the UK with arrival times being quite accurate to within a couple of minutes for 3-4 hour drives. They claim not to gather/sell any of your data, as they make their money through corporate customers.

It’s basically in use today. Apparently younger generations are more used to searching for files rather than structuring them. https://www.theverge.com/22684730/students-file-folder-directory-structure-education-gen-z
