Huh, had no idea it they had a pack like that! I definitely only ever played it on the browser. I doubt that pack released here in Brazil. Though that's an interesting point: some games were localized on the Brazilian…
Hah, that explains the out-of-left-field theme! I had no idea they were reskins of exiting games. Interesting how child me managed to unknowingly zero in into the games of a single developer.! And thanks for the game…
My favorite three aren't in there. All Dexter's Lab themed, now that I think about it. One was puzzle game where you had to bounce a laser off of mirrors to pop balloons. The second was kind of a Chip's Challenge kind…
I had a phone that produced this effect with its torch: https://twitter.com/rmbalt/status/1200397150003302403?s=20
Most homeless people aren't born homeless. Maybe at the point they're at now, yeah, a $500 rent and a $5000 are equally inaccessible. But for the people on the edge of homelessness, that $500 rent could be the…
That's an interesting take. Care to say more about HtWFaIP being unhealthy?
In practice it is a problem, because not everyone who needs low latency audio is a professional. Case in point: just the other week I was trying to get Rocksmith (a guitar game where you plug in an actual guitar with…
How come that when people handling uranium decide the rules are nonsensical it's bad, but when people handling bananas decide the rules (that, please note, apply to everyone with radioactive materials), it's somehow…
For sure it's a very minor impact, all things considered, but an impact nonetheless.
Most people who have the option of buying a Mac and still go with Windows/Linux machines do so because of the software. The hardware is almost universally agreed to be great, and a stronger overall package than most…
I thought I'd be unimpressed by the mirrored version, but I can say that for myself, it really did have a different feel to it. I've always pictured the boats moving right, sliding down, as if surfing the wave. The…
I do think that there's some loss in translated manga, actually! When the mangaka is creating the layout, they're conceptualizing the flow not only of the panels, but also of the text inside panels, to be RTL.…
I've long thought that words such as "unlimited", "infinite" and so on should be legally banned from marketing, or at the very least their use should be heavenly regulated. _Nothing_ is actually infinite. Everything has…
Yeah, I don't mind the static, manually selected ads too much. They tend to be much less annoying, and for better/more relevant services and products. And as a bonus (for the website owner), they're also much harder to…
Totally agreed. That one silly gesture is the one thing still keeping me with Motorola, it really has become second nature. It's almost bizarre how I immediately do it as soon as I'm in any kind of darkness. I had to…
Minecraft in CSS has been done, actually! https://benjaminaster.com/css-minecraft/ Discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44100148

> Well the person you're responding to didn't say anything like that. They're saying he's unqualified. When they said "It's the appearance of productivity, not actual productivity.", that does very much sound to me like…
I always find that characterization of Grey and the Cortex podcast to be weird. He never claims to be a productivity master or the most productive person around. Quite the opposite, he has said multiple times how much…
Yeah, it can be pretty difficult at times. I'm quite proud of my 75% solve rate with Connections, which I'm slowly but surely improving (though the last week or so has been a bit of a regression). I'm almost tempted to…
Yeah, it tastes like medicine to me. Although to be fair, the last time I had a diet coke, I was, dunno, maybe 10? So like 20 years ago at this point. So maybe if I had some now, I'd have a different opinion. But I…
Yeah, I feel ya. I don't mind it, but I'm far from loving it. What particularly stresses me out is how I can be screwed even doing everything correctly, if someone else screws up. All reasons why I think public transit…
I'm not a self-driving believer (never had the opportunity to try it, actually), but I'd say bad traffic would be the number one case where I'd want it. I don't mind highway driving, or city driving if traffic is good,…
Can confirm, could never stand the taste of Diet Coke, but Coke Zero tastes pretty close to the original to me! To the point that I pretty much never drink regular Coke anymore, if Coke Zero is available. There's…
Well yeah, but then any discrepancies that are found can be discussed (to decide which of the behaviors is the expected one) and then added as a test for all existing and future implementations.
