Create the problem, sell the solution.

No, no. All the NPCs are supposed to have 7 fingers on each of their three hands. It’s in the lore.

I saw so much praise for this game, which got me to buy. Then I genuinely felt like I played a different game than everybody else.

Not that I thought it was bad or anything, I just walked across the landscape for 2h15m and then haven’t thought about it since.

But why pay all those programmers when all they had to do from the beginning was a simple

People are weird about gasoline. They’ll drive around looking for the cheapest option, to save 2 cents/gallon. Even with a huge tank, that’s less than 50 cents of total savings.

So a grocery store can offer, say, 10¢ savings, and it only actually costs them like $1.50-$2.00 per customer. That’s way less than other sales that are harder to advertise and don’t bring in the same amount of business.

Ultimately the psychological benefit for the shopper is more than the financial cost to the store. The others societal costs don’t come in to that equation.

Why is my app saying this article is NSFW?

Professional Counter Strike:Global Offensive player Fashr is known to use somewhat unorthodox keybindings. Using the Right Mouse to move forward, Semicolon to move backwards, Comma for strafing left and a Full Stop to strafe right.

Oh, that’ll do it.

When you start a new language, you learn “The Rules” first, and wonder why your first language doesn’t have such immutable “Rules.”

Then when you get fluent, you realize there are just as many exceptions as your first language.

A rock with no electricity is just a rock. Meat with no electricity is just a body. Electricity is the only conscious thing there is.

Reminds me of one class I had in high school right after lunch. The teacher was occasionally late getting back to class from the bar.

It was going to be the 513, but we got an overflow error instead.

Backing this up with some history:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefox_version_history

In March 2011, Mozilla presented plans to switch to a faster 16-week development cycle, similar to Google Chrome.

Firefox 1.0 was in 2004, and it took until March 2011 to get to version 4.0. Then by the end of 2011, they were on version 9.

That was a very long way to say electric boats are bad because they’re preferable to sharks.

Don’t worry, though. It’s not in development hell, it’s going to be a AAAAA game, and that takes time.

Same reason people would buy an S when they could get more power, more storage, and a disk drive with an X: price. $450 vs $600 isn’t nothing.

That was a big talking point a few years ago. Polling companies stubbornly held on to calling landlines for too long, but the only people who had landlines were not representative of the voting population.

They try to correct for things like age, income, race, etc, by weighting the answers to match the wider population, but it’s hard to correct for things like “stubbornly old-fashioned regardless of physical age.”

Yeah, apparently I get to be mildly infuriated at nvidia for changing shit, mildly infuriated at myself for letting it, and also still a little mildly infuriated at playground games for having an ambiguous message that never clued me into what was really happening. Trifecta!

All custom settings get overwritten and set to Ultra or Extreme on everything.

It may not be making any sort of attempt to “optimize” settings based on my hardware, but that’s probably even worse. I turned stuff down to get the framerate that works for me. Just let me keep my setting the way they were before.

I don’t even know whether it’s Forza changing the settings or Nvidia. But somebody’s doing it wrong.

Only 3 options? Does Brawny think it’s illegal to grab 3/4 of a sheet?
