At least my kid’s karate studio is smart enough to do it that way…

“Power creep”
Bro, Yamcha didn’t get past the power nap. He was still somewhat competitive near the end of Dragonball, but he was the kid brother who only came along to get hurt or something in DBZ.


(especially if I can give it a coding standard and have it stick to it)
Hoooooh boy, that if is doing a lot of heavy lifting, in my experience. I’m constantly telling the stupid little stochastic fuck to follow basic coding standards I’ve given it.
I don’t use a lot of AI tooling outside of debugging and a little bit into command discovery, but fuck if the little shit isn’t constantly rewriting my code into a shit style that I hate and constantly correct.

Especially when you piss away billions on vanity projects, cut off revenue, and start multiple wars for your oil baron masters


Not sure how grip training improves wrists, but I already have a number of wrist specific exercises I do semi-regularly to help with the issue.


Funny enough, no. I have an LG G502 and I run it with the heaviest weights it came with (though, it’s still a lot lighter than the g5 was), but the weight of the deck is what ends up getting me. My wrists are usually what stops my sessions in the deck, but regular mouse usage is fine.


Anyone you recommend? I have the OG controller and a deck, so I’m not against the design, it just doesn’t look good to me on first look. But, like I said in another comment, it could just be a small hand model, or maybe even a bad angle


there are a lot of reviews already and most of them seem disappointed
Damn, I just found out about the controller today, I didn’t realize it was already going out. I’ll have to check out the reviews when I have a bit of time, but I may be holding out on my gen1 for a good while.
Here’s hoping the console/VR products they’ve got coming are more impressive.


I have a deck, and I would argue that it isn’t comfortable to hold for super long. I’d play it a lot more if my wrists didn’t ache after a 20-30 minute session.


Similar, but not the same. I had to double check against my deck, but the touch pads look noticeably larger, and the orientations are different, but that could be for the different ergonomics of the contriller.
Like I said, I’m gonna wait for reviews cuz it could be good, and valve has a good track record and I might have been reacting to some small handed model showing it off, idk. Just from the image it looks kinda bulky and awkward as a controller, but I’ll be happy to be wrong.


Me, seeing what they did to the steam controller:
WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO MAH BOY?!
Holy fuck that controller looks oversized and awkward. I get what they’re going for, but fuck that looks like it would be a pin in the ass (wrist) to hold onto and to effectively use the face buttons, thumb sticks and touch pads without hitting something else.
I’m gonna stick with my gen1 controller for a good bit, at least until there are a good amount of user reviews.
He said Melania had the glow of an expectant widow. You know, because trump is an octogenarian, and Melania is younger than Kimmel.


Yeah… Markets do tend to peak just before a crash. The only problem is knowing when the leak finally hits, since the market can be irrational longer than we can be solvent


TLDR they’re not doing basic cleanup and auditing of their DNS records.


The key phrase in their statement is ‘pseudonymous interactions’, which is what we have right here. We are not anonymous, because we each have a username and we can develop a rapport of sorts based on who we see around in various threads. What you’re thinking of is anonymous interactions, where there’s nothing to associate a post to an individual, which are toxic. The surprising thing seen, is that tying your real name to your post actually leads to less civil interactions than pseudonymous nicknames, with the possibility that people are less civil because they’re effectively playing it up for their social circle.

We built a data set of 45 million comments on news articles on the Huffington Post website between January 2013 and February 2015. During this period, the site moved from a regime of easy anonymity to registered pseudonyms and finally to outsourcing their comments to Facebook. This created three distinct phases.
…
We looked initially at the use of swear words and offensive terms – a crude measure of civility. We found that after the first change the use of these words dropped significantly. This was not just because some of the worst offenders left the site. Among those who stayed, language was cleaner after the change than before.
…
Our results suggest that the quality of comments was highest in the middle phase. There was a great improvement after the shift from easy or disposable anonymity to what we call “durable pseudonyms”. But instead of improving further after the shift to the real-name phase, the quality of comments actually got worse – not as bad as in the first phase, but still worse by our measure.
…
What matters, it seems, is not so much whether you are commenting anonymously, but whether you are invested in your persona and accountable for its behaviour in that particular forum. There seems to be value in enabling people to speak on forums without their comments being connected, via their real names, to other contexts. The online comment management company Disqus, in a similar vein, found that comments made under conditions of durable pseudonymity were rated by other users as having the highest quality.


Accountability for thee, not for me.
You’re showing your lack of intelligence here. Whatever you think the word means, the slur still a slur.
Do you think it’s ok to call people the n-word, even though you’re not trying to demean a black person?


I was running it on a couple hundred Mbps up for a while, and gig up is fine
Yeah, these people probably know and are ok with the harms they’re doing, they just don’t want the quiet part said out loud. That’s why the breaking point is the manifesto and the impact it has in their ability to sell, and nothing to do with the objectively evil actions they support and perform themselves.
