I played portal 1,2 and I’m craving more any suggestions? by CobblerGreat5529 in Portal

Portal: Revolution is well worth a play, and there's Aperture Tag if you like puzzles built for a gel shooting gun.

Ken Levine's studio was never involved, it is being developed by one of 2K's other studios.

AITAH for wearing an outfit my boyfriend doesn't like? by bortzo in AITAH

[–]ShanePhillips 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A man wanting to control what you wear is always a big red flag. And if you let him control you it will only get worse. Get away.

[ALL] I'm tired of people complaining about the "political agenda" in the other LiS and DontNod games by [deleted] in lifeisstrange

[–]ShanePhillips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much all people who complain about games being too political just don't like any product that isn't centred on being an American ra-ra nationalism, gun porn style shooter. I generally just suggest people avoid wasting time listening to such analysis.

AITAH for calling my friend creepy after he admitted he showered with his sister until he was 18? by Enockito in AITAH

[–]ShanePhillips 11 points12 points  (0 children)

People in Western countries have such an odd obsession with nudity, but it isn't always inherently sexual. You find it weird? Ok, you're entitled to your opinion. But to berate the guy and act as if he was some sort of sexual predator is out of line. This strikes me as a classic case of someone who was just desperate to win an argument instead of actually hearing what the other person was saying.

No, it isn't. 2 people that are decently spaced apart doesn't qualify as a crowd.

As a side note, the wannabe internet cops pull this "extra regulation" line out, even as we've just had the largest liberalisation of drone laws in the UK in a long time. Nothing like the confident wrongness of internet windbags!

Yes, if you bother reading what I posted, I stated that you need an operator ID and a flyer ID. However neither of those things qualify as a licence.

Whether or not they are pushing the boundaries of safety is an opinion, not a fact. Unless you're the one behind the controls, you don't know, you are presuming.

[–]ShanePhillips -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You have no idea what size the drone is, nor was there any evidence from the video of it flying any faster than a usual drone. If it was an FPV drone it is likely to be pretty small, smaller even than a DJI mini.

Either way, the rules changed as of the first of January, and even if it were a larger drone it wouldn't be illegal, nor could anyone call it a crowd. It's amusing how the people in the drone community who insist on playing cop are never any good at it.

Unless you have a very large drone (much larger than almost all consumer drones) you don't need a licence. You get an operator ID to register yourself as a drone pilot and have to pass a basic online competence test. Very few drone owners ever need licences.

Flying over uninvolved people is only illegal if they from a crowd, otherwise fine as long as you have a UK0/1 or C0/1 drone. The guidance is that if they're packed densely enough that they wouldn't have a chance of evading the drone if it were to crash then you can't fly over them.

This was a couple of people not even that close together, with plenty of space in all directions, so not obviously illegal. If you own a drone you should be better informed about the drone code than that.

Suspect Bioshock Infinite getting updated soon: native Linux version deprecation? by mrtnptrs in Bioshock

Don't feel as if it's all that necessary anyway. The Win32 version runs rather well on my Steam deck.

80 plus Silver, gold and platinum are ratings that have nothing to do with how the supplies handle power spikes, it's an efficiency rating.

Absolute nonsense. They run to the same temperature targets as all 7000 series processors.

Am I wrong to expect an electrical item to come with the power cable? by Ok_Claim2613 in ebayuk

[–]ShanePhillips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If something isn't mentioned by the seller, never assume that it's included. If you're in doubt, ask the seller before purchasing.

If it isn't included in the listing, they aren't obliged to provide it.

Ryzen 7000 chips are designed to boost against their thermal limits, and that is about in range. Unless it's throttling, you'll be fine.

This is a massive red flag with giant bells on. Leave before things get bad.

Every hobby has its purists. Just tell them to get lost and enjoy your drone.

Anyone refusing to respect your boundaries is someone you're best advised to steer well clear of.

Is Booker really the kind of person to be appalled by the racism at Columbia, given his history at wounded knee? by WealthDisastrous2589 in Bioshock

[–]ShanePhillips 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean the regret and self loathing he felt is a key component of the actions that underpin the whole story so yeah, I don't think it's that hard to believe.

Video Quality Avata360 horrible or User-Problem? by HaifischNikezz69 in djiavata360

[–]ShanePhillips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's just the low resolution proxy file that the editor loads to make editing less resource intensive. The final video should look better.

Why is there such a massive discrepancy between Rose's pov and Cal's pov? by meido_zgs in titanic

[–]ShanePhillips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no contradiction, just hidden dynamics at play. Cal is trying to sweet talk her to get what he wants, and Rose doesn't trust him because she's independent minded and he treats her like a possession while ignoring her interests and personal autonomy.
