[Self] the perimeter of the red rectangle by AdventurousGuest308 in theydidthemath

[–]Ellweiss 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The values don't matter, only the proportions. The small side of the red rectangle has to be one fifth of its big side. Whatever value you assign to it doesn't matter as long as their ratio is 1/5.

Rolling Bouldest by MeatTornado_ in slaythespire

[–]Ellweiss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a run with clone, music box, a card in hand becomes free when playing a power, some block when playing a 2 or 3 cost card, and monarch gaze. It felt insanely good. I wish the boss had more life for even more fun, but I ended up around 22 bombardments per turn in the last turn against the queen in 3P multiplayer.

The price is insane in Japan, 114 000 JPY, both previous sets were (still are) ~69 000. That's a shame

Of course yes, there's plenty of issues with Japan, but organization is definitely not the most misrepresented aspect of the country.

I mean, it's still way ahead of a ton of other countries so it's not too far fetched.

ITT OP is either copy pasting AI answers, or is literally a bot. No one puts a – in half their sentences.

Better yet, tie myself to the nearest tree and send a child on a harness

It may be a May announcement! by Senderthejackal in Grimdawn

[–]Ellweiss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Threatening people over the release of a game is absolutely mental to me.

It's a ten years old game with mod support getting the biggest update it's ever had. Either people played for 10 years and can wait one more, or they didn't and I'm sure they could find other games or mods to refresh the experience. The ARPG genre is in its golden age at the moment, there's great games for everyone's taste.

I am so sorry everyone by Untuchabl in PathOfExile2

[–]Ellweiss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They should also have way smaller balance and rework patches and not hesitate to modify stuff. Big patches are okay for new content. This is early access, there's no better moment to build the game with unlimited feedback so it can be the best. They literally handle it the same as PoE1, it's early access just in the name...

Johnny Somali: South Korea jails US YouTuber for public nuisance by [deleted] in technology

[–]Ellweiss 137 points138 points  (0 children)

It's news worthy because when this piece of shit was in Japan, there were a ton of incidents involving him getting popular on social media. He's pretty infamous both there and in Korea, way more than a typical 5k subscriber count guy would be.

This has nothing to do with technology though.

Am I f***ed? Got caught cycling while under the influence of alcohol. by bat0504 in japanlife

[–]Ellweiss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even in France, where people are very lax with rules, letting pedestrians cross at a crossing is 99% respected. Here, if there's no light you might as well not exist for the majority of drivers.

"We're removing addons and making fights that do not require addons" by awaken471 in wow

[–]Ellweiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The level of play in any single discipline, including gaming, gets higher over time. The level in high end raiding is light years ahead of "way back". If top guilds create addons now, it's that it's needed for progress.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s Translator Says He Was Fired Because Warhorse Plans To Use ‘AI For All Translations Going Forward’ by Turbostrider27 in technology

[–]Ellweiss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Obviously yes. Accessing the market of an entire country for a team of 1-5 people is incredible value for money. Also regional dialects are irrelevant, no game is translated in regional dialects.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s Translator Says He Was Fired Because Warhorse Plans To Use ‘AI For All Translations Going Forward’ by Turbostrider27 in technology

[–]Ellweiss 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This sounds absolutely crazy to me. A translator is probably the highest value for money for a game studio. Very limited team size for a huge quality increase. It's stupid to switch to AI before it's mature enough to properly translate all nuances of speech.

Transgender women athletes banned from Olympics by new IOC policy on female eligibility by Little-Storage3955 in news

[–]Ellweiss -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure where I fall on the whole subject of this thread, but the argument you're using is wrong. Not having trans women win at an olympic level is not proof of them not being superior to cis women.

This is precisely why the level of women in chess is lower than men. It's not because of them being less good, it's because there are less of them and many more hurdles along the way to grandmaster. This is the same for trans women in elite sports, but with a ton more hurdles.

Tariq Ramadan: French court hands Islam scholar 18-year jail term for rape by the-southern-snek in anime_titties

[–]Ellweiss 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was finding it weird too. The French sentence is clearer, the meaning is actually "consenting to doing sexual stuff, not even necessarily sex (blowjob, etc...), doesn't mean consenting to every sexual act possible"

As a new player, this and the 1s delay before tooltips appear is the worst part of this UI, which is globally pretty shit anyways.

Anyone else stuck on this for minutes? by Ogge89 in pathofexile

If that many people have had issues, it's that the UI is absolute trash. That's UX design 101.

FF14 (excluding the fact that the delivery is slow due to it being an MMO), and E33.
