You’re not Cheddar!

No die, is funni

Wait until you hear of a little state called Arkansas.

Whoosh?

People in Egypt, Turkey, India, Philippine, etc, etc, etc die in 29.5°C heat? That’s news to me.

I love talking with kids in that phase. The raw curiosity and interest in the mundane is so refreshing.

Sometimes I feel like many adults hate to learn new stuff and even get offended by the idea. It’s heartbreaking seeing those interact with inquisitive children, when they answer honest curiosity with indifference or worse anger.

Let epsilon < 0.

The “this would never happen to me” mindset really is cancer to logical thought and reasoning.

I somewhere read (maybe it was thinking fast and slow by Kahneman?) that even psychology students learning about certain behaviors would later anonymously claim they would never fall into these patterns. But plot twist: they are also only human, so of course they also could fall into these patterns.

Another example: People that think they would never fall for a scam. If it is the right scam they will fall even more easily for it than people that know that it could happen.

“Of course it can’t be a scam. Scams are obvious and only idiots fall for them.”

What’s confusing? I am confused by your confusion. This is all confusing.

Yea Plate Armour leaves place at the breasts anyways. As long as she does not have literal melon sized boobs they would fit comfortably.

But then there are a lot of historical breast plates with abs and big muscles so it’s not improbable that she just wants to express herself.

Tell that to a Roman soldier in their mini skirts.

Depends, are you using raw os APIs?

If so stop it and use a library. A library will do all the necessary checks anyways, atomically. And you need to handle API errors anyways. So checking ahead of time just would be a waste of time.

But in the end it’s irrelevant. This all seems like premature optimization at best and optimizing the wrong thing at worst. You shouldn’t need to open thousands of files a second to save a game and if you don’t then the cost of all this checking is essentially zero.

And if you are actually bound by the speed of opening files then you should investigate ways to open fewer files (or not closing files that you know will be needed later).

The only AC I have access to is in the supermarket and my car.

Do you live in an area with a lot of ac?

I needed to scroll way too much to see people mention marketing and advertising. It’s a huge deal.

The power of good advertising is not to be underestimated. There is a good statistically proven reason why so much money flows into it. And it’s not only traditional advertising but viral and “astroturfed” advertising.

That’s a strange hill to die on. I mean sure I will also never buy this game but with inflation it’s just a matter of time.

I would much rather have a higher initial cost with no macro transactions in game.

Not surprising. The Netherlands has way more money per square meter.

You only need to ask yourself why the PSU manufacturer would bother including the second connector on the same cable if it wasn’t ok to use it.

If you use a third party extension/splitter that would be another story but it doesn’t look that way in the diagram.

Only if you buy a shitty PSU. Quality ones have lots of protection circuits so worst case the PC would randomly shut down in high load situations.

Even then if the manufacturer put two connectors on the end of the cable they made sure to put large enough conductors to handle at least the max load of the connectors specifications. Again if it’s not a shitty no name brand. Probably with a good safety factor as well.

It’s not like 300-400W is that much energy in the grand scheme of things, so thicker wires wouldn’t even be expensive.

In my case that would mean that over 70% would be in the DMZ… It would be the main network
