Yeah aside from the mounts this looked like some generic unreal engine demo using generic assets.They’d be better off just showing the logo until they have some actual content to show.

Kinda par for the course for guild wars PR though. GW2 had some weirdly bad promo videos.

Used out of warranty Tesla are cheap for a reason. More expensive insurance and repairs.

In my experience, most people on windows don’t go into settings and mess around on their own. They ask for help or live with it. The amount actually investigating and fixing problems is low even on iOS.

They lobbied to deregulate it because they were only allowed to use one specific design. That’s why until the Ford Taurus every car had the same round headlights.

We need laws against the current stupidity, but can you imagine the waste if we were still forced to use one specific incandescent bulb everywhere?

I’m forced to use one for work. It handles Xcode, simulator, Safari, teams, word and crappy corporate security suite simultaneously surprisingly well. Having only a 256GB SSD is far more annoying for development work than 8GB ram.

Would still get a minimum of 32gb for my personal machine, but it’s fine for normal users.

I have big hands. Ultimate 2 is awesome and the gyro worked in Linux after I set it up under windows since it stores the config in the controller. It’s been my main controller for a year.

Forgot about those parts. When I think Buckhead I think of the area near the mall. When I think rich and too afraid of the poors for even Alpharetta, I think John’s creek.

Isn’t that John’s Creek?

A lot of us grew up where even 30fps was a target, not the low. I appreciate it when it’s smoother, but can easily enjoy slower paced games at 25 or lower.

Ha no. There are a ton of new juniors like that.

That sort of things happens a lot, but it’s also when you inform your manager. They may say to go ahead and adjust the schedule or they’re in a better position to politely tell the other manager that their failure to communicate this earlier is their problem and it’ll take as long as it takes.

Either way, you’re covered and do whichever work is appropriate.

Nah, the best that can be said about The Last Jedi is it has a few good parts. For a movie where much of the plot involved two giant space ships, it had the most painfully idiotic space combat of in any movie I’ve seen that wasn’t intentionally being silly.

In the opening, a pilot distracts an entire battleship staff from noticing an incredibly slow moving bombing fleet coming right at them by prank calling the commander. Then the director must have really liked WW2 bombers because he decided to have that bombing fleet slowly move forward and have the bombs somehow act like there is gravity affecting them to have them fall (in space!) onto the battleship.

The rest doesn’t get any better. The whole freaking chase scene where the chasing ship is arcing shots as if there is gravity to affect them. Hey if you are perfectly even on speed and can’t catch them, stop shooting your ineffective shots since firing something forward is going to push your ship back and slow you down. Oh man I can keep going but that movie was so bad we didn’t bother watching the 3rd.

I think you’re seriously overestimating many of the people hired and told to produce code.

I figure at the age you have the talk with them you also need to bring up the topic.

Unless you’re extremely good at controlling your kids access and making them avoid friends whose parents do not, there’s a good chance they’ve already seen it. My wife’s a high school teacher and when a report came out about the average kid having been exposed to porn by 8 they all agreed.

If you’re talking that young then no, but I’m also limiting them to only things like PBS kids and non-violent movies at that age. However, if they’re old enough that you’re ok with them watching people shoot and kill each other for your entertainment then they’re old enough to have that discussion.

Yeah that’s a nice idea but so is parents being able to provide food and shelter for their children. However, most counties in the world have social services because we recognize what should happen and what actually happens don’t always overlap and we don’t want to starve kids for their parents failings.

Once you accept some parents either won’t or in many cases can’t, the question is what you value more: the kids in those situations or the companies profiting off the parents failures.

Plus YouTube is an easy example. There are thousands of other websites that have much worse. Making the websites themselves responsible for flagging the domain puts the onus on those most likely to have the technical know how rather than those more likely to be ignorant.

Adding to my list of things to teach them:

Don’t open strange links someone posts as a reply

The hell are you talking about? Yes there are blocklists for adult domains, but that doesn’t actually block adult content since it leaves stuff like YouTube open. If you think there isn’t full on sex on there then you’ll be surprised.

The only thing that functions right now is whitelisting and it is super annoying since so many apps open a web container inside the app. All this id verification is nonsense, but providing an actually filtered internet is still nigh impossible for parents who aren’t tech savvy.

Give it a try now. I held off for 9 years because of the bad release before a friend convinced me to try it. Immediately sunk all my playtime into it for 2 months.

Now they’ve got the Pokémon thing and I’ve got another reason to explore worlds again.

They’re still available at great prices too. Used Ariyas are a steal.
