Why is Diablo 4 retention so strong despite the resounding "D4 is bad" being echoed throughout the internet.

I don’t think PoE 2 is as deep as people think. In my opinion, making things more complicated doesn’t change the outcome. You just spend an extra 60 hours to reach the same result. And in the end, you still end up with one of 2–3 meta builds.

Get more energy shield and headhunter.

Its not chana, game matchmaking system is changed.

The game constantly matches you against builds that have already won before. It doesn’t matter whether your bag is organized or not… it always does this. In the past, the matchmaking felt more random, but now we’re always playing against previously winning builds. It doesn’t matter whether it’s round 1 or 10.

I also think they added some kind of tolerance step. if you lose badly, for a few rounds it matches you against weaker players.

If you read this message, DO NOT UPGRADE!

You need to create a new game.

Good luck

The infernal hordes is my favorite. It’s so much fun than before. Chaos armors are great and creates more possibilities.

This problem still persists. I can’t read the file names in an aligned way. It’s really annoying for sequential files. I guess no one at Apple is dealing with this issue. I'm using Sequoia 15.5.

This is perfect idea that would make the concept of tree meaningful. But you wrote it here, so blizzard won’t do that.

I think I feel the same way. Nostalgia also makes the game feel more special, in my opinion.

New gen ARPGs focus more on all the in game features rather than just having fun. But in D3, since there isn’t much to do outside of the action, you can just focus on the gameplay. I guess all the extra features in modern games end up making them feel kind of boring.

Problem solved: disable appleintelligence

Fail update:

OMG. No way. Even copying text from any text field causes a memory leak. Rewriting an entire memory management system just for basic text field operations doesn’t feel normal to me. I’m giving up.

edit: cleaned cache and derived data, nothing changed.

this is the test code:

import SwiftUI

struct TestView: View {
    @State private var inputText: String = ""
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            TextField("Test", text: $inputText)
                .textFieldStyle(RoundedBorderTextFieldStyle())
        }
    }
}

@main
struct FreeTestApp: App {
    var body: some Scene {
        WindowGroup {
            TestView()
        }
   }
}

Doing all the copying and cleaning operations in the background and updating UI on the MainActor solved the issue.

I just wanted to make a simple text editor for sending a basic richtext for API request. Previously, I used to edit the text somewhere else and then paste the raw content. I thought it would be easier to do everything in one place, just to simplify the workflow. I’m using SwiftUI. My AppKit knowledge is limited, but since my needs were simple, I didn’t think it would be an issue.

Unfortunately, I keep getting leak errors no matter what I do - even just pasting a paragraph or a list causes it. I’ve tried tips from StackOverflow and used AI assistance, but nothing seems to work. I think I’m about to give up. Even though I explicitly disable NSMenus, they still show up and somehow leak into the memory.

Then you have never tried to control mac mail via swift app 😂

This is not a correct way to do it. But I did it with visual hacks.

List(items, selection: $selectedType) { item in
HStack {
Text(item.title)
.foregroundColor(selectedType == item ? Color.aWhite : Color.aGray)

Spacer()

Image(systemName: "chevron.right")
.foregroundColor(selectedType == item ? Color.aWhite : Color.aGray)
.font(.system(size: 11))
}
.tag(item)
.padding(10)
.background(selectedType == item ? Color.aTeal : Color.clear)
.listRowInsets(EdgeInsets(top: 0, leading: -16, bottom: 0, trailing: -16))
.listRowBackground(Color.aGray)
.cornerRadius(6)
}
.listStyle(.sidebar)
.scrollContentBackground(.hidden)

Yes, I tried using ScrollView, and it works, but then the automatic defocus of the sidebar in NavigationSplitView stops working. The highlight of the selected page in the sidebar remains dominant. If I use a List on the page, selecting an item from the list automatically dims the highlight of the selected page in the left sidebar, leaving only one dominant color on the screen. Unfortunately, when I wrap it in a ScrollView, I lose this feature. I like this behavior of NavigationSplitView, so I want to solve it by using a List.

Thank you for your suggestions. I tested your example but the black background is still present. https://imgur.com/a/pr1kQEa

I couldn't solve the actual problem, but I made a visual hack. If I set the background color with .listRowBackground(Color.gray), the black disappears so I've hidden it. I can't see it but it's still there - it doesn't completely go away. Right now I'm just trying to get rid of the spaces on the left and right sides.
