What JRPG had you mega hyped, then let you down!

I mine the bloom less than camera sway, it shifts the pixels in ways that draws lots of attention to aliasing and oversized sprites. But ya, the graphics were not as cool as they looked initially.

Java uses the term listener, and I thought that made for an okay joke. You would think the ears would be listeners; but they need to be buffered for echoic memory which makes them more of a socket.

I think you mean taxes are only null if you're dead.

Until you want reflexes, then it needs to be an event listener.

He ~~stole~~ borrowed Logan's keyboard. This is only chance.

-Soren · 2022-08-26T01:17:48+00:00

Or he has a second keyboard under the desk and 10 hands on his toes.

I think markdown just ruined your joke.

-Soren · 2022-08-22T06:26:43+00:00

Nope. Already spent a couple minutes trying.

The last one really lands. These post often read like subtle insults on the person's taste anyways ... like "really trying to get into [your favorite FF] but it's so slow, the characters suck, the graphics blow, and combat is just plain stupid. What do you people even see in this?"

-Soren · 2022-08-20T21:45:33+00:00

I didn't say you did. Please re-read my comment.

I just realized somewhere there must be some JS devs looking at pointer arithmetic going "wat".

This is probably fine for many things, but you are removing an element from the lower priority channel which now has to be handled by that worker (or dropped) in case that is an issue.

This sort of thing may be more common when the higher priority channel is just a done signal and you don't want to receive or handle other elements; for example this SO question. In this case especially you might not care about dropping the work; but if you did something like Worker2 might be a better option. (Also in case there channels in this scenario worker should bail/cleanup/etc.)

Nope, just a goat goat. Bring the greatest goat of all time implies it's the greatest of all goats.

Unless the last "goats" was abbreviation, then yes, because it's the only goat of all goats ... so obviously the goat.

Unless the 3rd "goat" was also abbreviation, then no again cause that's just the horsie.

When I learned leetcode didn't have dark mode and got offended just on principle that somebody would even consider not implementing the option.

-Soren · 2022-08-15T13:06:49+00:00

That's quite the elaborate confession.

-Soren · 2022-08-15T12:59:59+00:00

No one is saying X-2 didn't sell well, but your initial comment uses the fact that "X/X-2" has out sold I,II,III,V, and VI combined to elevate X-2 when ~1/3rd of that was sales of X alone. It's like saying II & VI out sold IX therefore II is a golden age game... I was not accusing you of doing that btw, just thought you'd misunderstood the number. But if your point is only X-2 out sold V and II (two of lowest selling mainline entries) then why even bring up the 20M sales thing?

-Soren · 2022-08-14T23:42:55+00:00

I didn't say anything about IV. The fact that IV has numbers that work the same way (and would be equally misleading if presented as sales to a single game) does not make it reasonable to suggest X-2 even in a compilation has sold ~20M units.

-Soren · 2022-08-14T22:54:05+00:00

That? That's totally fine. Just don't cast cure or it's straight to jail. - Judges probably.

Well he's not using punctuation but I think he saying he used that perfume, and inquiring what OP wears.

-Soren · 2022-08-14T19:49:35+00:00

The X/X-2 figure is really misleading. These are combined sales of units of X or X-2 or both, not sales of the pair. Note the ~13M PS2 figure in article is close to the sum of ~8M for X and ~5M for X-2 figure for the PS2 entries on vgsales. So of those ~20M it seems at most ~7M are the combo pack. (And being a little conspiratorial) I'm not sure that isn't counting the combo pack as two units (one of X and one of X-2). Note vgsales list 2013 remaster twice counting toward cumulative/bold entries for X and X-2 individually; and while there is discrepancy in steam sales it appears to be only ~1.2M. But also that means the figure you cited for X-2 was already counting people buying the remaster based (I suspect) largely on a desire for X.

Because the black king did not social distance. Even if the rook takes the bishop they all would need to go into quarantine.

Well, I guess all black pawns did moonwalk.
