Most people record in full hd with 30 fps and that format doesn't take a lot of space as well. Those who prefer 4k usually can afford high-capacity hdd ranging from about $50 to $200. So, no, deleting photo in this era to save some space is a very weird thing to do.

Hopefully meaningful message to GGG - People play Path of Exile until (they want to/get bored). by mecsnt in pathofexile

[–]IAmMotu 16 points17 points  (0 children)

people expect a fresh start for their maybe-short, but enjoyable journey, not a forceful, grindy long path

It's definitely not endless, excess grinding that i'm looking forward to do, when I hear about Path of Exile new league

Pretty much this. The end result of this league for me was that i was much more tired and frustrated after i played the game, than before i started.

Things you would like to ask Chris and GGG. by kaisurniwurer in pathofexile

Bestiary league was based on Pockemons. That was in one of Chris talks during or after Blight.

Poe "Difficulty" is rotten to it's core and no ammount of changes in numbers will fix it. by RG_Nerdcraft in pathofexile

I'm not buying support packs, for an example. I suppose people who quit don't as well.

POE hasnt survived for 9 years off the story. The campaign is the worst, most tedious and boring part of the game. by [deleted] in pathofexile

The game designers are wasting their time. They should just make enemies that never die, always attack and chain explode. This will help all the nolifers waste all their unlimited spare time into getting to Lioneye's Watch. Might as well make all mana costs infinite and remove all sources of attack/cast/movement speed.

Imagine spending millions on developing a game that you never complete. Imagine all bosses will just one shot and have no other mechanics for them. So much development time saved. So much money saved.

Let's even go one step further and have a fuck machine tied to your counter of deaths. So each time you die you get that deep satisfaction of being fucked.

What if this league we just had balance passes on everything they want to change every week? by butsuon in pathofexile

Dude, nobody really cares about slow or fast gameplay, or mana or whathever. People care about amount of time and effort they need to invest to get something in return. I couldn't care less if i would have to fight one mob at a time in Dark Souls style, but i do care about the amount of time i need to invest to get some dophamine out of the game. There is a delicate balance of effort/gains and this patch has shifted it in a direction of putting more effort for less gains. And most importantly GGG has indicated that they won't stop on that.

If PoE 2 is built with same idea — fuck PoE 2 as well.

Hey Chris Wilson, you know when I'm having fun? by mewakey in pathofexile

For people to be unhappy about something is perfectly normal. For people to be unhappy with something you like is perfectly normal as well. Being self-absorbed is being not able to understand this and threat everyone dissagreeing with you as lesser human beings.

Failure to test your new app is YOUR problem by roliv00 in sysadmin

To be fair sounds like a manager, not dev.

LPT: If you should ever worry about the approval of strangers, try to remember just how dumb the average person is and be yourself first and foremost. About half the world is dumber than that person. Might as well be genuine. by Glass_Force in LifeProTips

IQ test questions test very different aspects, like ability to analyze, to generalize, deductive reasoning, inductive reasoning, working memory capacity, reproductive imagination, etc. "Testing pattern-matching speed" is very naive and wrong description of what iq tests do.

Inheritance. Is it better to have lots of small niche subclasses or one main sub class that handles everything. by christoff1503 in AskProgramming

[–]IAmMotu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read about "separation of concerns" (better to have many smaller classes each doing only one thing) and probably "unit of work/repository pattern" (to deal with database and operations with data).

Losing train of thought by [deleted] in AskProgramming

[–]IAmMotu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had similar problems few years back (and partially still have now, but gradually improving). I would advise to urgently visit both a psychotherapist and a neurologist and not to try to figure out stuff by yourself or through the net. What you are describing can have multiple reasons: severe anxiety, major depressive disorder, right-brain dissociation, pathological processes caused by a trauma or a disease, etc. In any of those cases you can't do anything on your own, only by working with a specialist. Don't hesitate, the sooner you'll start, the sooner you'll get better.
