41,802,611 | comment | keyringlight | 2024-10-10T19:33:40 | null | I know this technically applies to a lot of open source, but given the breadth of tools under the windows 'tweaking' category and the audience I'd expect to use these "magic wands to fix things you disagree with MS on" I'm really surprised there aren't more subtle trojans mixed in with them. I think it's extremely unlikely any significant amount of users examine the source or make sure a binary they're using is trustworthy, even assuming they know what to look for.<p>There's a lot of 'marketing' possible and a receptive audience whenever a big tech company pushes something like Copilot/Recall, and I'm sure a well timed or prompt 'quick and simple fix' tool release with some a time pressure could get a lot of installs. | null | null | 41,802,238 | 41,801,331 | null | [

41,802,612 | comment | danaris | 2024-10-10T19:33:51 | null | I think you are right, but only to a certain extent.<p>Yes, Trump brought out something that was already there, lying dormant. But without Trump, <i>it would mostly have stayed dormant</i>.<p>Trump's primary victory in 2016 was a massive fluke, primarily (from what I saw) enabled by a combination of the horribly fractured GOP field, with the party establishment unable to rally behind a single candidate until it was already too late, a bunch of people who thought it was funny and voted for Trump for the lulz, and a large number of people who were frustrated by the past few years. That latter group I think came in two basic flavors: the ones who were frustrated <i>because</i> we had a black president, and the ones who were frustrated because the GOP Congress was stopping everything he tried to do (but who didn't fully grasp that this was entirely the GOP's fault). I genuinely believe that had the circumstances been just a little bit different in any number of ways, Trump would never even have made it past the first primary.<p>Once he was in the position of being a major party presidential candidate, it amplified his voice and that voice gave permission for all the bigots and fascists in America and abroad to show themselves and join their power together.<p>That said, I think there <i>is</i> a sickness in our culture, and I think its current prominence can largely be traced to Reagan, through several other intermediaries.<p>What we don't cherish, promote, and prioritize is kindness and compassion for our fellow human beings—<i>all</i> of them. | null | null | 41,802,077 | 41,801,271 | null | [

If you can still be bothered, you'll stay after the credits. If you cannot be bothered, the featurette wasn't that interesting anyway.<p>Think about it this way: would you have the excited conversation of "wasn't it cool when so-and-so chopped whathisname's head with the sword!?!?" <i>before</i> or <i>after</i> actually watching the scene as intended? | null | null | 41,801,929 | 41,801,300 | null | [

41,802,620 | comment | dfxm12 | 2024-10-10T19:34:43 | null | I don't see why it would. As the author said, featurettes are traditionally shown before the movie & this was clearly advertised. This gives movie goers a chance to ask about it if it is that important to them. That seems like there's enough inertia for people to expect it to be before. Theaters also want people to show up early before a movie's start time so there's a higher chance they get hungry or thirsty while they're there and they also want people out of the theater asap after the movie so they can turn the theater over for the next showing or go home. If they get to start early because people are leaving during the credits, even better. | null | null | 41,802,285 | 41,801,300 | null | null | null | null |

Trailers are just advertisements for movies, and ads have to both inform about a product and hype it up.

The Windows NT lineup was truly no nonsense, no fuss. Unfortunately the merger of consumer-focused Windows (which used to be the 3.1/95/98/Me) lineup) and pro-focused Windows (which was the NT lineup plus Windows 2000) coincided with the introduction of many annoyances, starting with activation in Windows XP and later adding nagging prompts for updates and security-related things, telemetry, UI changes, and more.<p>Sadly even macOS has gotten more annoying over the years with its various nagging prompts. | null | null | 41,801,944 | 41,801,331 | null | null | null | null |

It gets harder to fit those drugs into your life when you have increased responsibilities and fewer opportunities. Opioids are not party drugs for the most part. Alcohol is obviously a party drug, but like opioids it can become an acute addiction and a maintenance issue (even more so than opioids due to the uniquely dangerous withdrawal symptoms). A drug like cocaine is, to me, similar to molly/ecstasy. It's not fun to do maintenance amounts or to do a lot solo. So use seems to wax/wane with lifestyle. A pattern I have seen a lot is people who used/abused cocaine and alcohol frequently when partying, eventually stopped with the cocaine, and continued on as alcoholics into their 30s/40s/50s.<p>One interesting things about cocaine addiction is it has one of the strongest genetic/hereditary links of any addiction...<p><a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41380-021-01256-1" rel="nofollow">https://www.nature.com/articles/s41380-021-01256-1</a> | null | null | 41,801,886 | 41,787,798 | null | null | null | null |

41,802,645 | comment | adamrezich | 2024-10-10T19:36:54 | null | I completely agree that constraints can breed creativity—but so can trying to do things a different way than you're used to. If you've only ever made games with very generalized data structures organizing your game logic for you in some predefined way, then PICO-8 can give you the best of both worlds!<p>There's plenty of games made with Unity and other engines that I enjoy—I'm currently playing a Godot game and it's great.<p>But if nobody pushes back on the current status quo rhetoric, then many people will a.) continue to have extremely incorrect misconceptions about what <i>necessarily</i> constitutes a “game engine”, and how difficult it is to make one, b.) not be encouraged to try to learn something new that has more general applicability outside of the domain of their preferred tool, and c.) continue to find themselves in situations like Unity developers did last year, or like what some Godot developers are experiencing right now—feeling trapped, with no immediately-viable path forward.<p>In this past year, I've built my own “engine” that runs a networked open-world game that loads world chunks in and out of memory as players move around the world—but unlike other games like this that I've seen, certain types of NPCs can <i>also</i> freely move around the world, even when there's no players nearby. This was not trivial, but it would've been at least an order of magnitude more difficult, and much less performant (even though I haven't done any optimization work on it yet!) if I was using someone else's engine, shoehorning my approach to solving the problems that this design I wanted to make presents, into said engine's way of doing things—instead of just defining structs and functions that do what I want them to do and writing the whole system myself. It wasn't trivial, but it was <i>MUCH</i> easier than I would've imagined before trying it myself, given that I'm using a library for rendering, and another for network sockets.<p>So constraints can certainly breed creativity, but if these constraints are left unchallenged for long enough, then you're just limiting your potential for what you can do. | null | null | 41,802,199 | 41,779,519 | null | null | null | null |

41,802,650 | comment | mleo | 2024-10-10T19:37:38 | null | This is great; though I have less need for it day to day now.<p>I used to have 49" 5120x1440 display. We started with Zoom, which under Advanced would allow partial desktop sharing. I would draw a 1920x1080 box and move windows in and out of the box.<p>We moved to Teams and Teams only supports Window or Screen sharing. DeskPad would work great for that situation. Create a virtual display, share it and then use it on right part of the physical screen, moving windows in and out as needed.<p>Currently, I use 2 Studio Displays instead of the 1 Wide Screen. When I need to share screens, I press a button on Stream Deck that calls displaypacer to set the resolution on the second display to 1600x900. When done, I press the button again and it toggles the resolution back to 5K. The resolution switching is instantaneous with Apple Silicon/Studio Display making it hassle free. | null | null | 41,800,602 | 41,800,602 | null | [

41,802,651 | comment | rsynnott | 2024-10-10T19:37:49 | null | It’s presumably very _cheap_ debt, though? Ireland’s in a somewhat similar situation (don’t be fooled by the headline debt to GDP figure; Ireland’s GDP is distorted to the point that the government has had to make up its own adjusted metrics), though it’s currently running big budget surpluses, and from time to time someone will ask “why, instead of lowering taxes and investing in infrastructure, are we not using this surplus to pay down debt?” And the answer is that the average cost of the debt is 1.5% (the expensive stuff from the financial crisis has largely refinanced). It makes little sense to aggressively pay down debt at those sorts of rates. | null | null | 41,799,691 | 41,799,016 | null | [

A big chunk of it was a human going through a menial 30 minute process that was identical for each set of assets. I took on the task of automating it.<p>I made a CLI application that took a folder path, and then did the asset import for you. It was structured into "layers" basically, where the first layer would make sure all the files were present and correct any file names, the next layer would ensure that all of the textures were the right size, etc. etc.<p>This funneled the state of "any possible file tree" to "100% verified valid set of game assets", hence the funnel approach.<p>It didn't accept 100% of """valid""" inputs, but adding cases to handle ones I'd missed was pretty easy because the control flow was very straightforward. (lots of quotes on "valid" because what I thought should be acceptable v.s. what the people making the assets thought should be acceptable were very different) | null | null | 41,798,783 | 41,765,594 | null | null | null | null |

I personally run an Index on a 4080 Super (previously 3080) via the SteamVR runtime. System details in case it matters: Arch Linux Zen kernel, X11 (i3), Nvidia drivers, SteamVR Beta, usually a recent Proton GE version. I remember playing Beat Saber, including modded [1], Until You Fall, Pistol Whip, Raw Data and After the Fall without issues. Non-steam applications outside Steam can also work, I have a launch script that sets up the env vars for Proton, should be easier via Lutris.<p>I see some problems however. VR itself is not as smooth as it should be, 100% playable, but not as smooth as I remember it ages ago on Windows or using a FOSS VR [4] stack (which has other issues). I don't really use SteamVR home, it sometimes takes a while to load. SteamVR window on the monitor has weird flickering issues, usually I can't get into its settings, likely i3 related. Firmware updates are mostly broken. No (I think) standby for the Lighthouses, I toggle them via Home Assistant and smart plugs.<p>Shout out to steamtinkerlaunch [2] for making certain settings easier to apply and ProtonDB [3] for tweaks if needed.<p>[1] <a href="https://github.com/geefr/beatsaber-linux-goodies">https://github.com/geefr/beatsaber-linux-goodies</a>

41,802,691 | comment | anonify8 | 2024-10-10T19:41:32 | null | Thanks. There has to be a better way. At risk of sounding cliche an LLM could probably do a better job. If yiu ask if the person probably knows SQL and they talk about setting up a postgres cluster... a natutal language model might score them as very likely and you keep em in. Maybe that wasnt available at the time.<p>Otherwise screen with a 5 to 10 minute quiz. Which also would probably encur the wrath of a HN snark from someone else but I accept these sorts of thing as a necessary evil and fair modulo creating more work for busy people. | null | null | 41,798,582 | 41,790,585 | null | null | null | null |
41,802,692 | comment | YoshiRulz | 2024-10-10T19:41:36 | null | You have named all the players. Maybe throw ShoutWiki in there, but I recently tried to create a wiki there and it wasn't working—YMMV. There's also NIWA, focused on Nintendo-related IP, but I believe that's more of a webring and doesn't manage hosting for their members. | null | null | 41,800,280 | 41,797,719 | null | null | null | null |
41,802,693 | comment | bluGill | 2024-10-10T19:41:44 | null | The request is evidence. So far all I get are claims. However I know from experience that many claims are false so I want to know if this one is real or just another one made for a point without any real trust behind it.<p>I'm not claiming the US is perfect, but you are making a strong statement that is either completely false, or is true but only with pages of fine print (and it may turn out that if I read all those details I'd be fine with that as a place where we shouldn't allow equality in the first place) | null | null | 41,802,265 | 41,787,798 | null | null | null | null |

41,802,696 | comment | zdragnar | 2024-10-10T19:41:56 | null | The question was "better on Linux <i>on a Mac</i>", meaning specifically Asahi Linux.<p>The correct answer is no, not yet anyway.<p>Linux running on x86 with proton is still the bee's knees for most games though. | null | null | 41,801,984 | 41,799,068 | null | [

41,802,698 | comment | VyseofArcadia | 2024-10-10T19:42:11 | null | These are all the views of someone who is hopelessly naive. Maybe some truth, but ignorant of where we came from and how we got here. This is a diseased view, is reprehensible, small minded, and aggressively mean, and it's absurd given how much complexity has been poured into making computers do simple things in the most complex way possible.<p>My man, I am not a fossil. I came of age with web apps. But I <i>am</i> someone who has seen both sides. I have worked professionally on both desktop applications and as a full stack web developer, and my informed takeaway is <i>web apps are insane</i>. Web dev is a nightmarish tower of complexity that is antithetical to good engineering practice, and you should only do it if you are working in a problem space that is well and truly web-native.<p>I try to live by KISS, and nontrivial web apps are not simple. A couple of things to consider:<p>1. If it is possible to do the same task with a local application, why should I instead do that task with a web app that does everything in a distributed fashion? Unnecessary distributed computing is insane.<p>2. If it is possible to do the same task with a local application, and as a single application, not client-server, why should I accept the overhead of running it in a browser? Browsers are massive, complex, and resource hungry. Sure, I'll just run my application inside another complex application inside a complex OS. What's another layer? But actually, raw JS, HTML, and CSS are too slow to work with, so I'll add another layer and do it with React. But actually, React is also too slow to work with, so I'll add another layer and do it with Next.js. That's right, we've got frameworks inside of frameworks now. So that's OS -> GUI library -> browser -> framework -> framework framework -> application.<p>3. The world desperately needs to reduce its energy consumption to reduce the impact of climate change. If we can make more applications local and turn off a few servers, we should.<p>I am not an old man yelling at the cloud. I am a software engineer who cares deeply about efficient, reliable software, and I am begging, pleading for people to step back for a second and consider whether a simpler mode of application development is sufficient for their needs. | null | null | 41,800,981 | 41,795,561 | null | null | null | null |
41,802,699 | comment | namaria | 2024-10-10T19:42:29 | null | It matters when you are pointing to the 'hominem' as political thought leaders. I think it's fair as a counter to an appeal to authority. | null | null | 41,802,432 | 41,792,780 | null | [
