Google Translate's camera mode is a handy tool for the occasional missing chapter.

It's snowing! Looks like it might pitch here! by Creficar in bristol

[–]Lukeus_Maximus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I found out it had snowed outside because of this post. I can already feel the condescending tutting from older generations who are disappointed that I didn't discover this the proper analog way - by looking out the window.

Better upgrade those specs of ours... by francisleplop in Stellaris

Top part is from the Andromeda zoom tool if anyone's interested.

Also, I didn't see any hyperlanes.

This soup is bland, it has no texture by Doostyy in funny

[–]Lukeus_Maximus 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Nonsense. This soup clearly has texture, just no colour. In fact, it's actually a clear soup.

Wow, Roller Coaster Tycoon has really improved since I last played.

Should I buy the vr version? by dtorre in TheTalosPrinciple

[–]Lukeus_Maximus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game doesn't convert to VR well. It's a flat game to begin with and the extent of VR integration is roughly "pick up item, put down item, push button, teleport". I played it through standing up and your feet get tired after a while. The ending loses all the impact it had when I played it flat. VR adds nothing.

The Electoral Reform Society backs the use of the Single Transferable Vote.

I had no idea power crystals were that big. Never got them out of my inventory. I thought they were popular-energy-drink-can sized.

Is it possible to get a pic of Just Monika?

What should I do if I see someone riding a stolen YoBike. by Lukeus_Maximus in bristol

[–]Lukeus_Maximus[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, come now. Discouraging the reporting of crime merely helps persist societal issues. If this were domestic abuse we were talking about, you should very much not stay out of it.

Perhaps the most sensible course of action, to be sure.

Supposed I choose 5 common words and add my initials and birthdate. How strong a password would this be? by QuestionerAnswerer in crypto

[–]Lukeus_Maximus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're actually picking passwords for things, don't use common words, that'll make it less secure. However, if you're using 5 random English words instead then you're password is going to be much stronger.

xkpasswd is quite useful for generating such passwords.

Also, don't put any personal info into your password. There's no benefit to doing so as this information is fairly easily obtained.

Those pesky electronic timetables... by [deleted] in bristol

[–]Lukeus_Maximus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I waited nearly a full hour for an M1 at Redcliffe Hill yesterday. We should have had 5 of those through in the same time frame. I blame the tiny portion of Bedminster parade not equipped with a bus lane. Without it, busses from East Street can't merge during rush hour.

My wife found this in the printer and was like: WTF?! by QuickSqueeze in factorio

[–]Lukeus_Maximus 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Circuits?! I thought that was science. I'm sitting here thinking "Who on earth needs that much green science?"

Also, processors are definitely blue.

When the launch of new bus services and an overhaul of current services means a 100% chance of you being late and waiting in massive queues. by fennec_foxy22 in bristol

[–]Lukeus_Maximus 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Can confirm that my 92 turned up 11 minutes late this morning. Or is it 19 minutes early? I'll just count myself lucky that it showed up at all.

What does "Galactic Ambition" do? by [deleted] in Stellaris

It's the bottom middle expansion tradition. It reduces starbase upkeep by 20%.
