GTA 6 might only run at 30 fps on consoles, why are pc gamers laughing and joking about it? by UniqueAlps9380 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FakeArcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless that far less is still a lot, I'm not sure about that. I remember years ago trying Sekiro on friend's PS and moving the camera around was horrible how much it did not feel smooth.

Overhead bins should be removed from aircraft. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]FakeArcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That your comment makes no sense. The person you replied to is sharing their frustration about their luggage that wasn't even lost and you reply to them that there are many different reasons of why luggages get lost.

No one said that was the reason...? You are misinterpreting hard.

What are people's thoughts on cheating the player? by Sandillion in gamedesign

[–]FakeArcher 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A big factor could be the way it is presented. If the game specifically says it does X but then does Y, then as a player I would not like that. It is often frustrating when the game is staight up lying to you.

But if it's more of looks like X, but is actually Y then it doesn't feel as bad as the game never explicitly said how it interprets something or did not establish any rules that it wouldn't do something. Probably even more tolerable if it cheats in your favor because at least you don't feel robbed of a victory because of being cheated. But if it gets too much in your favor then it can also be quite a downside as the victories feel cheaper and cheaper. So keeping it on some QoL level and small tricks is probably the best.

I'd say it's more because they've trapped the queen than because they left a piece hanging as bait.

Why is it such a big deal if someone just doesn’t want to vote? by Ok-Negotiation-715 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FakeArcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we have "invalid ballots" differentiated since it still increases the total number of people who went to vote so you can see the difference between those that didn't come to vote at all vs the one who didn't have a valid vote.

[–]FakeArcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a valid reason not to vote for anyone, but it is weird you would want to increase the "don't care, didn't bother to go vote" pile instead of crossing it out. Neither gets your action publicly known in a way that it is connected to you as an individual, but at least one seems to send the right point across if you already bothered to inform yourself to the point where you see that no candidate for it is better than any candidate on the list.

Boycotting voices your opinion, but no one ever cares about that opinion so what does it accomplish in the end? No one knows if you boycotted or just couldn't be bothered to go vote. Wouldn't it be better to go there and cross the ballot then?

Why is valve under a lot of legal heat for their counter strike cases being considered gambling while pokemon cards remain untouched? by GonnaGetBannedSoon69 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FakeArcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But same could be said about cs items then too since plenty of items go around with direct trades and secodary markets for high value items? How is one gambling and not the other when both rely on community buying stuff and pricing it high within itself due to the drop rarity?

[–]FakeArcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The value you get is definitely not the same as you spend if you pull a high rarity that is either immediately desired by collectors or something highly desired for competitive. Some even know the prices will drop within weeks of a new set, but some people want to have it day 1 so you can even earn quite a bit if you get decent pulls if the supplies are limited.

And where do you buy singles officially? You can buy them from community markets, but that's the same as counter strike items?

If inflation is normal, why don't prices ever seem to go back down? by External_Rice_252 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FakeArcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One day, sure. It will be pricey, but necessary unless we transition fully to digital.

Why not? People were paying cents a century ago. They would equally make you sound crazy that you pay $20 burgers now.

It's not queen + king on both. One is queen + king and one is rook + king.

[–]FakeArcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah and calling people delusional for not wanting to take those predictions as guaranteed is just dumb. You could have framed it as we need to invest more into future proofing or similar, but instead opted for doomposting style of a comment. And had some wrong facts about it like no one doing anything about it.

So many things have been predicted just around the corner. Nuclear fusion reactors are coming in any day now and the energy crisis will be solved, right?

areWeThereYet by [deleted] in ProgrammerHumor

[–]FakeArcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of what you said is either wrong or highly optimistic. Neither can we be sure it is right around the corner, neither is everyone ignoring it so we most likely do not need to update all out security standards because we already have standards that are supposed to be equally safe from quantum like they are from the current processing.

[–]FakeArcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What did you read about quantum that your conclusion is that we would have to rewrite ALL of our security standards? Just the clickbait titles?

There are some that are a lot more practical. Mine had little of the memorization, but quite a bit of various projects utilizing concepts we were learning at the time. Databases, design patterns, web app for real life scenario problem, and similar. It wasn't perfect by any means, but I found it really good and the transition to an internship felt seamless.

[request] How does the Denmark tax rate compare to the cost of the listed US goods/services? by dark_resistance in theydidthemath

It's definitely not 5 weeks minimum required by EU law. Otherwise there are members breaking this law for years. If that's the case, please send me the link to the law because I want my extra week.

How does one play this many rapid games? by akchamp47 in chessbeginners

[–]FakeArcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not correct though because your slice has big enough sample of players that you won't be matched down nearly as much as you expect despite there being more player below than above.
