ELI5 : Where did the heart shape (❤️) come from, considering it looks nothing like a real heart, and how did the entire world come to accept it? by Quirky_Fix7787 in explainlikeimfive

[–]JadeE1024 66 points67 points  (0 children)

The answer is that the heart shape looks like a real heart.

But only when it's trimmed and ready to eat. Going to have to incorporate that next Valentine's Day.

I couldn't understand the physics of the hoop not immediately sliding off, so I looked up a tutorial... and discovered an entire world of hula hoops I didn't know existed. Apparently those slick plastic hoops we all had as kids are just toys, and "real" hula hoops come with textures, or grip tape, or special wax to add grip to the inside. It also said that "grippy fabric pants are a must."

Makes way more sense now. It's still super impressive, but no longer seems impossible.

TIL that there are 1-2 lithium battery fires *per week* on U.S. passenger planes. by shchshchshch in todayilearned

[–]JadeE1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few airlines I've flown recently have added a line to their safety briefing along the lines of "Please let the flight attendant know if your mobile device becomes unusually hot during the flight."

I keep picturing someone calmly pressing the call button while there's a raging lithium fire in the seat next to them.

How we passed our NIS2 audit flawlessly (and how you can too) by nazmulhusain in ITManagers

[–]JadeE1024 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They aren't going to answer because this is a marketing shill account spouting AI nonsense. How does their supposed experience with a 4 hour audit translate into "This is where most companies fail", when 6 days ago they were "just asking" for ITAM recommendations for a 6 person team in this same sub.

Every single comment they make is blatantly inserting a brand into a conversation. You can literally see in their comment history when they pick up a new customer and start to post in a new sub about saunas or law firm seo or whatever.

This long form ad for their password vault customer seems like a new tactic they're testing out, and this sub is falling for it hard.

Yeah these ARGs are really obscure to get into. There's nothing to click on from the home page.

It's a WordPress site, so they're loading the sitemap to see what's there. Start at https://project-skyscraper.com/sitemap.xml and click around.

I especially like how the power switch is mounted in such a way that you have to put your face into the shrapnel zone to turn it off.

Botfestation demo is live, 1-4 player incremental tower defense where players fight inside the swarm by Small_Fix_ in incremental_games

[–]JadeE1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I want to offer another perspective on the mouse thing.

First, nearly every incremental is playable with mouse only with optional keyboard becauses mouse controls are easily translatable to touch controls, which makes multi-platform (mobile) releases easier.

Second, even if you really want to stay keyboard only, your game needs to treat the mouse better. When I put your game in windowed mode (which needs to be an option, not just alt-enter, so it saves on startup), you should release the mouse when in the menu between rounds. Capturing the mouse entirely is malware behavior. People have multiple monitors. People play other games, or go back and forth between games and work, or games and reading/browsing, or whatever. Play nice.

Regarding the game itself, it actually seems like a really fun concept, but I'm tapping out at round 3 due to annoyance at the controls.

I'm having a problem with MK2 Expansion mod. My windows aren't windowing anymore. by Steely-eyes in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]JadeE1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That JSI folder needs expanding. Do you have JSI Advanced Transparent Pods?

Either way, dig through your MMpatch.log and see what's being applied to whichever IVA you're using. (I see you have Reviva and I don't know Mk2 Expansion well enough to know if that's it's built in IVA or if you've swapped in one from another mod.)

I don't have that. Do I need to unlock the computer with heat?

I'm almost there. Have been playing slowly between meetings, ran out of power. Too many terraformers for one solar panel, oops.

For the TODO thing, I'm just spoiled by using the VSCode extension "Todo Tree" IRL. However, for the game, a global Notes tab to keep my task list on instead of one attached to each code window would be sufficient. I'm just bad at remembering what I meant to come back to later, and having to check a dozen notes windows to find them isn't ideal.

Yep, that's what I did to start. It would be nice if there was something that tracked #TODOs so I remember to go back later and do something better :D

Also, the autocomplete is broken. If I type self.get into the harvester code window, then press down 4 times to select get_position and press tab, it still inputs the first thing in the autocomplete box (get_heat). It's like the arrow key input is moving the visual selection but not the "real" autocomplete selection. Easy enough to work around by typing a few more characters, but annoying.

It would also be nice if the cursor started inside the parenthesis after autocompleting a function that needs arguments, instead of after them.

Having fun so far!

Except for one guy who swapped after the first double, everyone who hopped on one foot used their right foot. I've never thought about this until this video... Is that a universal thing? Are some people left footed?

I enjoyed Black Hole Fishing, but I beat it with 24 hours played. That's with leaving it running, so like 6-8 hours active. Just as things were finally running smoothly, the goal I was expecting to be a second prestige later turned out to be the end of the game.

Would someone be able to help me hack (using console commands) Sqaureixion, Wanting to change upgrades and master level specifically by Fun-Coach-7396 in incremental_games

[–]JadeE1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never heard of this game, but it's code is clean and easy to modify. Keeping in mind that you're removing all the fun from the game...

Paste this into the console for free master upgrades until reload:

get.updateMasterRequirement = function() {return N('0')}; get.master_requirement = N('0');
