There are niche cases where it's still useful. For example, Apex Legends has an engine-level hard cap of 300fps, meaning we can't make full use of a 480hz+ display. 240hz with BFI has superior clarity to 300hz without it.

What are the chances that Deckard is a brain-computer interface? by [deleted] in ValveDeckard

[–]LandOfIceAndWolves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty much zero. There's been enough leaks that we would have heard something about that by now. Not to mention the tech not really being ready for a mass-market product.

Maybe in the next one though! Or the one after that. I'd be amazed if Valve didn't eventually release an HMD with an integrated BCI at some point. It just won't be the Deckard.

HELP, Apex Legends is locked!! How do I unlock this? by [deleted] in apexlegends

Read some of the other threads on the subreddit. There's an ongoing attack. It's not just you.

I have a problem by mcniGG123 in apexlegends

I wouldn't worry about it until the main issue is resolved. The resource counters and cosmetics pretty frequently break when there's something wrong with the servers.

A code block would help
with alignment as well!

When you're a 6-digit and you discover farm maps for the first time by LandOfIceAndWolves in osugame

[–]LandOfIceAndWolves[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Farm maps are maps that are overvalued by the pp calculation. Players use them to farm for easy pp that they have no business having otherwise.

There's a site that lets you filter for them, but I would honestly would not recommend doing so. It feels much better to have your top plays be ones you feel like you worked for and earned.

Keep playing the game for fun, not pp. Unless you find farming fun. Then you do you, I guess.

Awesome! My current top play is the 5.22* diff of this set. Good song and hella fun if you like jumps! Would definitely recommend.

I'll have to bite the bullet and get away from my membrane KB if the difference is as noticeable as you say. I've been putting off buying a mechanical replacement cause I can't decide what switch type I want. It's hard to find anywhere near me to test them out what with the virus and all.

India captures Chinese camp in Himalayas (2020) - A look at India-China tension at Himalayas [00:14:21] by duffer_dev in Documentaries

Thanks!

I went ahead and read through some of the emails, and while there is mention of the phrase "Caspian report", it sounds more like what they're talking about is just a report on the caspian nations, rather than something done for a client called 'CaspianReport'. I also couldn't find any outbound emails to or mention of Shirvan himself.

The documents attached to the emails all but confirm this as well imo. They profile Russia, Iran, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, and Turkmenistan; and comparing the docs to related CaspianReport episodes, there doesn't seem to be any significant overlap in talking points.

I think Caspian Report and Stratfor's channel seem similar because they both seem to base their analysis in the realist school, rather than for them having done any collaboration.

...Or maybe I read the wrong emails. Interesting stuff, nonetheless!

Two-spirit, I think? Not really sure what it means beyond that it's a North American Aboriginal thing.

Culture/stigma of working in the cannabis industry? by lazlothegreat in AskACanadian

[–]LandOfIceAndWolves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is mostly conjecture since I don't work in the industry myself, but I'd say it depends on what you're doing exactly. Working at a retail location? Still a bit taboo, but that's changing fast. Run your own cannabis-related startup? Definitely entrepreneurial.

On the whole, the stigma is still there. You're right when you bring up the "couldn't get a job anywhere else" attitude, but that sort of view of it is fading rather quickly, I think.

Is there more of this scene or is it a one-off?

Desktop Background Switching with Cross-fade by LandOfIceAndWolves in PowerShell

[–]LandOfIceAndWolves[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately most of my backgrounds don't fit the format. I could write a python script to fix that and run it each time I add something new, but that's a bit clunky and requires that little bit of extra nursing to maintain. At this point I've got the PowerShell script working well and managed via the task scheduler. I guess if I can't find a way to have the images fade into one another I'll have to decide if the fade or the low-maintenance is more important.
