you probably just notice that because it doesn’t make sense from your perspective.
it’s probably more cost efficient for advertisers to just throw relevant ads at potential groups. Determining whether an individual already has the item is a waste of resources, and you probably don’t notice when the ads are things you don’t own.
with stuff like this, usually the objective is to advertise based on patterns across purchase histories
Arctic Eggs is a short but neat game about frying eggs
do you know what an analogy is??
do you mostly communicate with people in your company or do you talk with external people too?
Don’t get me wrong, I know teams has issues, I have my own list of complaints, I’m just surprised how different your complaints are.
how often do you use teams? And do you usually have network issues? I have pretty stable Internet and don’t run into any of these issues but I could see the occurring if teams doesn’t have a stable connection.
Teams opening files in teams is super annoying though.
that makes sense, it’s like only really feasible now that we have enough decompiled, readable n64 games
a comment on that site really condescendingly claims this is how he would have handled it and that a script could be written in half a day to do the work.
my understanding is that an emulator effectively recreates the hardware’s different components in software so that from the game’s “perspective” it’s running on a real machine more or less.
This process instead decompiles the game code and recompiles for a new target machine.
I suspect one can’t just pump out a script in an afternoon to do this, but I am curious what is the complexity here?
I think the most famous one was the star wars jedi force trainer? Some people say it’s fake but… it’s like a headset you put on that they claim reads your brain waves and it controls a little fan that switches on and off to make a ball in a tube float
I don’t see how it’s backwards, the word drives clicks and is commonly used. It’s unfortunate but most journalism has to be profit-motivated to survive these days.
I kinda alluded to it but they probably don’t want to ban the word because it’s commonly used and it drives clicks.
yeah, unfortunately they need to make money to exist. And that creates all sorts of incentives that aren’t great. I still like journalism and think it’s an important part of a working society, but I decided pretty quickly after studying it that I didn’t want to be part of it
I studied news journalism in college and they kinda hammered in that in news journalism it’s more important to communicate information consistently and to target a wide audience than it is to make “good writing.”
There are style guides you have to follow and words like “slammed” end up getting used a lot despite not quite being accurate because they’re words that are used a lot.
The other thing is that usually the person writing the headlines isn’t the journalist… and sometimes they do a lot of versions of the same headline and when people click more because of the word slammed it ends up sticking.
this is so dystopian. Imagine spending your career honing your skill as an actor, dying and then having a computer replace you with just a photograph as a source. How is that honoring an actor??
An actual, practical example is generating video for VR chats like Apple has somewhat tried to do with their headset. Rather than using the cameras/sensors to generate and animate a 3d model based on you, it could do something more like this, albeit 2d.
the scientists build the robots. Society and its corruption will determine how they get used. I don’t think it’s a reason to not build robots or to say they’re not worth making. At some point in the future, society may collectively improve and the robots will be there to use.
of all the things scientists do, making robots that can do dangerous or even tedious labor isn’t that bad.
it does depend on the ones you have. The cheap ones are just speakers. I have one of the higher end shoks with audio boost and it feels like it has a little speaker on top of the bone conducting.
if you’re in a quiet room and you put them on max and leave it on your desk you’d probably be able to pick out what it’s playing. I think at that point though the desk is somewhat becoming a medium for the sound…
Kenney the guy that makes assets?
I was driving my brother in law and he was trying to tell me some news he heard but couldn’t get the specifics so he spent ten minutes searching tiktok for it. I couldn’t believe it
he was like 24-25 when Wolfenstein 3D came out (having designed like half the levels) and continued on, being an integral part of Doom, Doom 2, Hexen and Quake
