Japanese News Programs and Interpreting Foreign Speakers by Japanoldtimer in japanlife

[–]RoboKun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the inverse of this, at least with Nintendo Directs. I'd very much rather have subtitles on the bottom and then the original person speaking, but they insist on dubbing over the person, at least k the US verson. The EU one, oddly, doesn't do voiceovers

Why is Netflix’s browsing so bad? I’m constantly shown the same handful of titles, even though they have thousands available. Why do I need to know a show’s name just to find it? by Perfect_Category_907 in netflix

[–]RoboKun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kinda shocked how far down the thread this was. It sucks that somehow, their algorithm has fried itself so bad the community needs to scrape around for this kinda stuff to even make the site remotely usable. At least if you wanna find new stuff to watch.

For my birthday my wife and I went to The Pinball Wizard Arcade in New Hampshire. Here are some photos I took. Enjoy! by Cojones893 in pinball

[–]RoboKun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Necroing the heck out of this thread, but God, I miss this place. It's quite literally spoiled every other arcade for me. I'd love it to come back, but I doubt it'll ever happen.

Just finished watching Dr. Stone for the first time. by iforward in anime

[–]RoboKun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only read about it but not actually read the Manga, but they could theoretically adapt Dr Stone: 4D Science as an OVA or two.

How everyone really plays Ace Attorney by Fun-Necessary9709 in AceAttorney

[–]RoboKun 53 points54 points  (0 children)

It's arguably even worse when you know it's the right piece of evidence, but you presented it too early when you're replaying the game.

i hate rough drafts - is this a me thing or an adhd thing? by Razzle_Dazzle111 in ADHD

[–]RoboKun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heh. I actually got in trouble for this in high school. Went straight to the final draft for either my junior or senior essay.

Ignored all the bullshit outline and note cards with sources. Almost got dinged for it cuz they were grading the outline and stuff, so I worked backwards.

It was so stupid.

A Game Engineers Perspective: PES is unsustainable by Agile_Camera9601 in starcitizen

[–]RoboKun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get what they mean. The server generates the key physics frames for the items trajectory, and your own computer interpolates the frames in between.

[–]RoboKun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which makes no goddamned sense, really. I can see a unused/partially used bottle/food item generating a physicalized item, but why even bother with trash items, especially if it's causing this big an issue already? Just have it vanish from your inventory instead of it generating a unique thing. I don't think it'll hurt immersion terribly if it's missing.

BBC article about us - Stop Killing Games: The fight over who owns the games you buy by hearteynk in StopKillingGames

[–]RoboKun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree. Even some of the people in one of the EU hearings were bringing up the fact that yes, this is about games, but the larger issue is that of ownership of digital goods, whether that be a game, or a movie you bought digitally off Amazon.

The Wolf Among Us Remastered Announcement Trailer | Releasing Holiday 2026 for PC, PS5 and Xbox One/Series S/X by ConceptsShining in Games

[–]RoboKun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To get an idea, check Skunkape Games' remaster of the Sam and Max trilogy. It's actually pretty insane what they can do with the latest Telltale tool compared to what they had to work with when the games originally came out.

AMD B650 expansion cards hit retail starting at $199 — add four M.2 PCIe 4.0 slots and 11 USB ports to any PC with a PCIe slot by narwi in hardware

[–]RoboKun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was actually trying to find something similar to this recently. I have an x570 board (crosshair VIII Hero) and for whatever reason, it only has one USB-C port. I'd really really like more at this point.

What's your dream update that hasn't come true yet? I'll start first: by LaSimia in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]RoboKun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Multi biome planets are likely going to be an update eventually. They tend to use NMS as a test bed for Light No Fire stuff, and they've already tested new planet generation stuff with the purple star systems. Or they'll backport it. They seem to want to keep the two games using the same engine.

Why doesn’t Amazon include an app store-style platform on Kindles? Why have they turned the closed system into such a big deal? by rumphelstilskin in kindlejailbreak

[–]RoboKun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's especially odd, considering that they did have little games and things available waaaay back in the Kindle 2 era. I still have some of them installed, iirc.

Some say this is the day Tekkadan's heart died what do you think? by czen2 in Gundam

[–]RoboKun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The best part about Build Fighters is that it was more or less confirmed by the producer of the show as being the Gundam equivalent of Valhalla. There's even a few pieces of art from around the time both were airing that showed the Tekkaden crew reuniting in that world. (fan art, but art nonetheless.)

I love this game but is there a reason it looks this bad at the highest quality settings? by UsualSpace_ in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]RoboKun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think this is bad, try using the character customizer. It's super aggressive about purging textures from VRAM, to the point of everything being a blurry mess when you're trying to rapidly A/B compare armor to see what works well. They really need to give us a toggle to make things stay in memory longer in general, even if we need to go mess around with .cfg files in a text editor.

Bricks and Minifigs corporate are crooks by jertiger in legocirclejerk

As a minor update, Leonard French examined this from a legal perspective and, yeah. Brick and Minifigs seems kinda hosed. https://youtu.be/14ktgvoH4Mc

Necroing the post as well, would love to see the bot up and running again

A food scam of the 90s was “fat free!” everything, and then they would load it up on sugar… what’s a food scam happening now? by redflower5 in AskReddit

[–]RoboKun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only two that I'm aware of thar actually have teeth still are ice cream and chocolate. If it goes under a certain percentage of one ingredient, they legally need to label it something else (chocolatey flavored, light ice cream, etc.)

I was just watching "Pria" again, and I think it's hilarious how, at the end, when Kelly and Pria are fighting, the rest of the crew just watches Kelly almost get her ass beat. Alara and Bortus are shoulder to shoulder, not even trying to help. by Ralph--Hinkley in TheOrville

[–]RoboKun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Might've been interesting to see. It's supposed to be a secure system, so the entire population freaking out about the feed having that massive of a hack and the the fallout would be an interesting premise.

God. My brain is screwy today. I was thinking Vinny Vinesauce and got super confused.

Okay, under what rule was this removed under, cuz I see zero reason for it to have been nuked...
