Windows 11 is little more than a reskin of windows 10, and they still fucked it up.

Rounded corners are mandatory (Why? I really preferred squared ones). But developers can choose to have their windows square. Why only the developers? Let the user decide how a windows looks like!

And don’t get me started on the start menu. It was a complete massacre. Tiles are gone (am I the only one that liked them?). Instead, now we pin apps to the start menu. Fine I guess, except for the fact that half of the fucking menu is taken up by fucking recomendations. If I remove every single recommendation, instead of having my space back for more pinned programs I get this message: “oh you like this precious white space? If you turned on some recommendations it would show something”. No, i don’t want recommendations, I want my start menu space back. Which btw in windows 10 used to be resizable to whatever size I wanted.

Oh and lets not forget about the volume mixer. Which some genius decided that it was better to keep it 10 clicks away from the user in the settings, instead of conveniently at one click in the taskbar. Which they also made the sound settings their own special taskbar element, instead of another taskbar program. So now if I want to replace their shitty sound settings with the ones I like (trumpet btw), now I would have 2 sound settings in the taskbar, while in win10 I only had 1.

And whose Idea was to join the sound settings and internet settings in the same taskbar button visually? Which is also not the same button functionally. You see, if you press the left side of the button it opens the sound settings, but the right side opens the internet settings. How much do Microsoft UI people get paid?

I guess we got dark notepad, that’s nice.

Logistical problems are still financial problems though. That’s my point. Hire enough people/develop the appropriate automation and the issue is no more.

We have the technology to solve this, the problem is the money.

In fact, you could just buy enough batteries and the problem will also go away. Still a financial problem, not a technology one.

EDIT: just to clarify, if at some point energy prices go negative, it means that it is cheaper to buy energy usage than a solution. Unless the energy company is dumb enough to just lose money for the lazyness of considering other options.

It is a financial problem. Technically you can just cover the solar panels. But that’s not good financially.

Presumably, if you’re looking for a partner, if the potential partner is looking for a partner it’s better.

The tinder one is though. Someone being on tinder doesn’t tell you anything about that person. Only that they’re looking for either a partner or casual sex.

Well, game freak is still a Japanese developer. Mario Cart is a very computationally light concept, as usually are Mario games, idk about odyssey in particular though, but they tend to be small maps with small amount of entities each. Zelda is fair, I’ve heard good things about it.

It’s easy to make a good performing game if its concept and art design are computationally light. Optimization is about turning a computationally hard problem into a light algorithm that doesn’t take much resources.

The new Pokemon games grind to a halt if you are in the south of the map and look at the north. Because you are rendering the entire map. How is that optimized to hell and back?

Considering how politically active he is, he might become a politician (even running for president?). A lot of people will care about this if suddenly Elon musk appears in American ballots.

EDIT: I just remembered that Elon cannot run for USA president. But idk if other political positions are open.

And seeing how trump can break every law, I don’t see what would prevent Elon from running for president.

The lava lamps are not true random though. For something to be truly random, it must be non-deterministic (no seed at all). The only way for a computer to accomplish this is to read from a source of true randomness in nature. The lava lamps are random enough, but not truly random.

At the moment, the only source thought of being non-deterministic is quantum mechanics.

So if you make a computer generate random numbers out of the randomness of quantum mechanics, you would have truly random numbers.

Science fiction quantum entanglement is not the same as real life quantum entanglement. Science fiction has spooky action at a distance, real life doesn’t.

The speed of light is the speed of causality, the speed of information. It is physically impossible to send information at speeds greater than the speed of light.

Kids are constantly being made. While it might be your 15th CoD game, it’s someone else’s 1st

So they should conquer the entirety of Asia in one turn, to get an extra 7 units per turn in order to afford their war with Europe?

That’s because it’s not the same feminist movement as it was when millennials were gen z’s age.

The last questions are what feminism used to be (what millennials liked). Nowadays, however, feminism is plagued by not-feminist people, that instead of wanting equality want women superiority. That’s the feminism gen z knows about, and the men don’t like it. That’s also the reason they answer “no” to “are you a feminist?” But they support actual feminist policies. The definition of feminism has changed.

EDIT: just for reference: my county (Spain) recently put porn under a passport with limited uses per month. Why did they do that? They claim feminism. Does that sound like feminism to you?

I was totally ready for “green energy is good graphics and oil is good mechanics”. But then the comment ended. I’m so lost

It not being fully 3D doesn’t mean that it’s of lower quality.

For example when consoles got powerful enough to draw 3D backgrounds you could see a significant decline in background quality, since you can have a higher quality 2D background for a fraction of the resources.

Fold it twice, still free

I poo almost daily at work. It’s almost impossible to hold it in for 8:30 continuous hours.

If someone tells me off for it, they will find out how much my productivity drops when I have to focus on holding the shit instead of doing my work.

Poo in work. Not only is it a nice break, but it also is more productive than not pooing. Win-win for everyone.

Except 12. That’s a single dozen.

In Spain we used to have the same system. However it’s been a while since I’ve seen it, most carts still have the euro slot, but they are not chained, so you don’t need to insert a coin.

Shouldn’t being a convicted felon affect one’s candidacy?

Should the US government also pay candidates to have aesthetic surgeries? Being ugly might affect their candidacy!
