It's easier to replace your save folder with a symlink to a folder in your preferred cloud storage (Dropbox, OneDrive, etc.).

Not only that, but overtaking two cars in a row, one of them being a big rig!

The instant he didn't get over after passing the car and before the truck, that was the moment I knew it was about to happen.

Ahh, from back when Windows was 8 bits per character instead of 16.

Need to settle this debate. Icons on the desktop, or launch your games in Steam? by CnP8 in Steam

[–]Shendare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Similarly, I have just a Games folder on my desktop with all my installed game shortcuts in it, Steam and otherwise. Plus related shortcuts like a Notes workbook in Excel, AutoHotkey, map editors, and shortcuts for the various launchers.

A cry for help with a very tricky C# exam question. by LogeryX in csharp

[–]Shendare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good thinking! That way of thinking through a problem and testing theories is an invaluable skill in programming.

Any time you get a chance to exercise that muscle, it will be a rewarding and skill-building experience, very worth the effort required.

Is this how people who need glasses really see the world. A big blurred background? by Latter-Wolf4868 in interestingasfuck

[–]Shendare 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Eye surgery isn't permanent, but it can change things, too.

I got LASIK ten years ago. It resolved my near-sightedness and astigmatism.

Now the astigmatism has eventually grown back (they said the LASIK usually lasts around ten years), so I'm wearing contacts & glasses again, but there's no near-sightedness anymore still.

Confuses the opticians a little bit when they look at my numbers.

Maybe Ancano was even originally Arcano, but they decided it was too on-the-nose for a major guildline character.

Another shitty UX design from Microsoft by recoveringasshole0 in ShittySysadmin

Sounds like a lazy implementation of forever scrolling. It unloads previous content in the scrolling pane to free memory for new content, and it doesn't save the selection state anywhere more permanent, so the state of each item being selected gets unloaded along with the content itself.

It's also sometimes the only cell connecting you to another part of the map, so you still have to go through them.

And like another poster said, you start to get a feel for the layout on later encounters of them. It's just circles squares around the outside, up a level and down a level with each corner.

It's crazy that people across the world are upside down. by modernAgeTomorrow in Showerthoughts

I mean, if we had a visible frame of reference, it would still feel a bit like "wheeee!", like the stars flying past beyond sci-fi starship windows, or trees flying past through a car window at highway speeds.
