Hagdos,

That’s not an excuse to just skip all punctuation.

Hagdos,

Nothing wrong with very general rules, as long as you pick the right ones.

Don’t bully people. Don’t be an asshole. Don’t use or threaten with violence. Etc.

Even better are general positive rules: Be nice to other people. Be kind. Give constructive feedback. Etc.

Hagdos,

Yes, that’s why I said “as long as you pick the right ones”

Hagdos,

That’s how it started, but then they sometimes grew to their own level of features too.

I don’t believe that Age of Empires II needed shooting convertibles for debugging.

Hagdos,

The first time I heard this joke I was laughing so hard I almost fell off my dinosaur!

Hagdos,

Making that argument completely closes the door for fully autonomous cars though, which is sort of the Holy grail of vehicle automation.

Fully autonomous doesn’t really exist yet, aside from some pilot projects, but give it a decade or two and it will be there. Truly being a passenger in your own vehicle is a huge selling point, you’d be able to do something else while moving, like reading, working or sleeping.

These systems can probably be better drivers than humans, because humans suck at multitasking and staying focused. But they will never be 100% perfect, because the world is sometimes wildly unpredictable and unavoidable accidents are a thing. There will be some interesting questions about liability though.

Hagdos,

Depends on where you live. Here in Europe Pozidrive is slowly being replaced by six-lobe. Flatheads and Phillips are only on ancient stuff

Hagdos,

Also not putting the dough in the fridge before baking. You can see the lefthand picture is already sweating, meaning it is very soft dough at room temp

Hagdos,

Enough to marry

So I guess capable of answering “I do” when asked a question would be stable enough

Hagdos,

He was a butcher and a rapist. That’s a fact.

But not a conquerer. Genghis Khan was a butcher and rapist too.

Hagdos,

“Use one word to describe this person who did many things.”

ChatGPT: Does exactly that

“Noooo, why are you not adding the important context I want you to add?”

What did you expect, exactly?

Hagdos,

I expect you to die 3 is out. I’m halfway through, and I think it’s better than 2.

Still too short, 6 levels, but that’s indie VR games for you I’m afraid.

Hagdos,

It’s both a huge claim and an unimportant one, and that’s why it’s a problem.

Claiming you have “taller than Mt. Everest” mountains in your game is easily verifiable, and a ton of work. Because you need a map that fits a mountain that size, and need to do all the artwork, make it an interesting place to be. It’s not impossible, just a lot of work.

At the same time, it’s not very important. When I’m looking for a next game, I don’t care how high the mountains are. I want an interesting place. Skyrims High Hrotgar for example is an interesting place with an interesting story. It felt very high and a long walk (7000 steps), but it probably pales in comparison to Mt. Everest.

So promise us a great story, interesting characters, or challenging gameplay. A good game, not a technical masterpiece that will be empty.

Hagdos,

That’s a decent hill

Hagdos,

How does chrono certified work? 5 seconds a day would be half an hour in a year, that doesn’t sound super accurate to me, but I know little about watches

Hagdos,

Thanks! That’s a clear answer. Would a mechanical watch indeed have a drift of a few minutes each month, or is that a worst-case that doesn’t really happen in real life?

Hagdos,

Thanks, I can see that
