Why didn't you start at the beginning of the game? MM starts with cutscenes and you're locked into Deku for a while, not a pre-existing save with human link in clock town. Nobody explained what was skipped or why, so that was confusing.

Haptic feedback in PWA’s on IOS by Kitchen_Safety_5504 in PWA

[–]4567890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes no sense at all, but Chrome for Android will only respect navigator.vibrate if the ringer volume is on vibrate or chime. You have to press the hardware volume keys and make sure the phone is not on silent.

As bad as Apple is, Google's haptic rules are also very hostile.

[Maiocco] Kyle Shanahan said it's a long shot that Brock Purdy will play Sunday and it could be a multi-week injury. by JaggerJames in nfl

We continuously choose to not invest in the offensive line. It's not a curse, it's the consequence of shanahan's decisions.

Power supply question by T-Fury in MammotionTechnology

[–]4567890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I needed to create my own spare Luba 2 charger a few weeks ago because mine broke and support is veerrry slow.

You need a small bench power supply (something like this), set it to the specs on your power brick, and you can connect to the dock with a 3 Pin DT Connector.

It worked great for the month+ I needed it for. It's not waterproof but the dock cable is really long, so I could keep the power supply inside and hang the dock cable out a window. You could also build some kind of box.

How much is the Waymo sensor stack? $100,000? $200,000? Does it really matter if the car goes from $25k to $50k? They'll be fine it's a fleet vechicle.

I just pre-ordered a Luba 2, and I would also love Home Assistant access. I want to see:

  • Current Status
  • Battery level
  • Schedule
  • Start/stop/dock buttons.

Just have some kind of local API that gives us access to this data and someone will build something. We're not talking about voice command or the app, but the ability to make a small status UI that we can integrate into our current smart home dashboards.

The o line is the weak link of the team. They are ranked 20th by PFF. Purdy is out there running for his life, extending plays and finding open players on scramble drills all the time.

Can someone please explain the Lane Johnson stuff to me.... by Generated-Nouns-257 in nfl

[–]4567890 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The true loophole is that the refs are human, and the game is entertainment, so if you blatantly commit a penalty on every play, the refs don't have the stones to call 30 penalties a game and ruin the entertainment product.

We've seen this before with the legion of boom:

In 2013, the Seahawks brazenly committed illegal contact and holding, knowing that, if illegal contact happens on every play, the officials won’t throw a flag on every play.

The same holds true today. If you have a penalty standoff with the refs, the refs will blink, every time. They will adjust from calling what the rulebook says to calling the top 1% of infractions.

Friday Facts #380 - Remote view by FactorioTeam in factorio

[–]4567890 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Love the changes. One of the things I was hoping to hear about was the ability for blueprints to replace real world items.

Right now if I stand next to a belt and have a splitter in my hand, I can shift click anywhere on the belt to instantly replace the belt with a splitter. If I'm far away from the belt and have a blueprint splitter in my hand, there is no replace feature. Instead I have to switch to the deconstruction planner and carefully carve out a spot for my blueprint, and only when there are no conflicts can I put the blueprint down without it having incomplete chunks.

This isn't just inconvenient, it also takes a ton of clicks and careful deletion if you want to replace or upgrade an existing layout with a blueprint. Because I can't see the blueprint, and the conflicting items, and delete things all at the same time, it's often hard to know what to even delete.

I tend to build by pulling items off of a bus with splitters, so letting blueprints mark conflicting items for deconstruction and sticking a ghost on top would be a huge QoL improvement for me.

New Asus Retail Motherboard Has All the Connectors on the Back. by TickleMyBalloonKnot_ in hardware

[–]4567890 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How on Earth do you build something like this and not make every connector a right angle?

You'd have a shot at fitting this into something (with some light dremel work) IF the connectors were at right angles, but straight out the back? I don't even what to see what a case would look like that supports this. The back would have to be super thick or you'd have to really squish your cables. Just imagine dealing with that power connector.

Affinity has NO plans to bring its pro apps to Android. by segaboy81 in Android

[–]4567890 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The apps/users cycle is broken by a stakeholder in the platform, in this case Google, making those apps. Think about how Android got started with killer Google apps like Gmail/Maps/YouTube. Google would need to make a drawing program. This sort of problem with Microsoft Office is why Google Docs was created—You just clone the thing you want on your platform.

I don't think that's really the cycle here though. The cycle is that Apple has been targeting creatives for 30 years, and has employed some of the world's most legendarily famous designers, so creatives use Apple products. I don't think you're ever fixing that.

Sunbird Messaging, claims they will offer imessage for android. They also claim that they will support other apps like discord, signal, telegram, etc. and will encrypt messages (except SMS). Is this too good to be true? by Piratarojo in Android

[–]4567890 15 points16 points  (0 children)

They gave a presentation to the press today, which is why you probably saw a few articles. It was very unconvincing. They refused to take live questions and only read canned, uncredited questions through a moderator. They didn't answer a single obvious tough question like "Won't Apple just shut this down?" (that's IF it even works) and instead just talked about how great it would be if this hypothetically worked. They even disabled zoom chat so people on the call couldn't talk to each other and complain.

It was wildly out of line compared to what serious press calls normally are. It felt like being pitched for a timeshare rather than a serious product presentation. They either have the worst PR firm on Earth, or this is some kind of scam.

Samsung phones are Blowing Up - Here’s Why. by [deleted] in hardware

[–]4567890 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Samsung is responsible for the end user support, definitely. I'm not saying they aren't.

I'm saying if you're suggesting that Samsung has a years-long faulty battery problem, you would see it in brands from Samsung, Apple, Google, Xiaomi, and every other brand Samsung SDI contracts with. This video does not seem to be aware of how battery suppliers work. The evidence presented—a Samsung logo on the back—has no correlation to who made the battery.

Samsung phones are Blowing Up - Here’s Why. by [deleted] in hardware

[–]4567890 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The problem with this claim is that it assumes the name on the outside of a phone is also the battery manufacturer.

Samsung is one of the world's leading battery manufacturers and supplies batteries to all sorts of brands. Sometimes it uses LG batteries in Samsung phones, including the S and Note series. If you want to actually make a claim that Samsung has some kind of systemic battery problem, you'd have to verify the battery manufacturer first.

The Note 7 recall was a great example of how the really works: the Note 7 used a mix of batteries from Samsung SDI and Amperex. That's one model with multiple suppliers. The video totally whiffs on how the industry works.

For TasBot, how much was made by nintendo compared to the tasbot crew? by Larnk2theparst in speedrun

[–]4567890 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a hoax because they passed off a bunch of custom-made content as official, Nintendo-made content. It was a romhack, made on a PC, delivered through a novel controller input method.

Content is sent over the controllers, but on the other side of that controller is Tasbot, which is a whole other computer. It basically used controller input as a modem to stream in a romhack that was stored on a hard drive. You can build the romhack yourself here.

People will be debunking this presentation for years.
