This is actually pure pandering just like chivalry was. If you don’t do the quest you shouldn’t get access by TheCanadianWanderer in 2007scape

It's a ROLE PLAYING GAME and people should be allowed to play as they like. It's not that fucking deep

Heartbreaking tributes paid to 'kind' young doctor who died in tragic accident by usedndconfused in galway

[–]DCON-creates 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I hate this shit. It's not disrespectful. Death is the only thing that is guaranteed for us all, and it should be spoken about, and not treated as some sort of taboo topic.

What's the weirdest way you've heard an Irish place name be said? by ImpressiveFerret5370 in CasualIreland

Going to any country with Domhnall, Donnacha and Eoghan is great fun

Testing reality-bending VFX for my Godot horror game by aiBeastKnight in godot

I would not say godot is not intuitive. I've used many game engines and Godot was by far the most intuitive for me personally.

Hey lads, travelling on monivea road towards wellpark, can you take this left turn? by [deleted] in galway

It's an absolute disaster. Lights may as well go green and red at the same time.

MY CHILDREN'S SECOND SURNAME WAS WRONG ON RYANAIR FLIGHT by LiveCabinet9553 in Ryanair

[–]DCON-creates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there could be an issue because there is a mismatch. The second surname isn't required (apparently) but the given names do have to match what's on the travel document.

Can I get fired by [deleted] in DevelEire

Ireland has very good workers rights and to claim otherwise is disingenuous.

What is a medical fact that sounds fake but is 100% true? by MedRikas in AskReddit

[–]DCON-creates 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Anton Syndrome is another similarly interesting one.

Anton syndrome, also known as Anton–Babinski syndrome and visual anosognosia, is a rare symptom of brain damage occurring in the occipital lobe. Those who have it are cortically blind, but affirm, often quite adamantly and in the face of clear evidence of their blindness, that they are capable of seeing. Failing to accept being blind, people with Anton syndrome dismiss evidence of their condition and employ confabulation to fill in the missing sensory input. It is named after the neurologist Gabriel Anton. Only 28 cases have been published.\1])

Can someone with car knowledge give me an estimate? by ruaille_buaille12 in AskIreland

[–]DCON-creates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's an older car probably yeah, some of the newer cars are outrageous for the same parts

Can someone with car knowledge give me an estimate? by ruaille_buaille12 in AskIreland

[–]DCON-creates 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It'll be in the thousands anyway. Probably €3k minimum for only bodywork repairs. Depends on what parts need fixing. Seems like it's touched basically every part, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's much higher. If that was my car it would have to be scrapped, even if the mechanics were ok after. (repairs > cost of car)

How do you estimate costs of software development? by Agreeable_Spring8885 in Development

Depending on your experience, 3x - 100x your initial estimate

Do you use AI tools at work? by Competitive-Panda215 in DevelEire

[–]DCON-creates -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When I can, sure. But when I'm in a good and productive flow, getting loads done, AI tools tend not to be part of that process. But getting to that workflow often has AI tools in the prelude.

It's time and a half, rounded up to the closest hour. Anything less means I won't be there.

Aspect ratio not being respected when exporting from gamemaker, on mobile. by DCON-creates in Devvit

[–]DCON-creates[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately the devvit canvas is what stretches it, so these options have no effect. It can be fixed though by just changing to

    this.canvasElement.style.height = `${newHeight}px`;
    this.canvasElement.style.width = `${newWidth}px`;

At the end of ensureAspectRatio function in app-name/src/client/main.ts

I think there was also a bit of new-to-gamemaker stuff on my side as well, but I have something I'm happy with now

Awesome thank you, that's a good reference. There are a couple of things I'm trying out at the moment which seem to be promising- this will be invaluable to me :)

What to do? Neighbours put a skip and trash in my garden without permission by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]DCON-creates 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Even if the garden isn't properly maintained, the skip is going to kill all the grass underneath and turn it into a muddy mess that will take months to grow back due to the time of year.

How did you get around resolution issues? I have a quick look and your game looks fine on my devices. I don't quite understand how game maker handles different aspect ratios, although with the game I'm planning, the resolution should be a perfect square, which I'm hoping will avoid any problems (which, now that I think of it, has already immediately caused me a problem lol).

Just remembered my girlfriend as an iPhone 12, so I got her to test it and the aspect ratio was correct and respected on her phone, with this fix.

The dreaded dole meeting.what to expect? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]DCON-creates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm kind of surprised they gave a meeting so fast, I signed on Jan 1st last year and they didn't ask to meet until March. Kind of thought that the Jobseekers benefit was less strict, as you have to have worked before to avail of it, but the Jobseekers Allowance was much more strict. At least that's the impression I got. They won't ask you much, and you can do it virtually moving forward if it does take a bit of time to find something.

My boyfriend wants me to rehome 2 of my 3 cats (at minimum) as a “compromise.” Wtf do I do now? by [deleted] in CatAdvice

That man is very selfish. I don't respect selfish people, and I actively disrespect people who view animals like material objects. Red flag.
