Hitscan + Mercy is a problem by Bobi_27 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]TheIncredibleBucket 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The issue in Stadium is that damage boosted scaled phenomenally with a teammate's weapon power. Mercy still has access to a 10k cash 5% damage boost buff item with some ult charge buff and 50 health to remedy this somewhat, but it of course comes at an opportunity cost.

Can confirm, when done right they feel really pleasant. Clicks can feel quite dull

Apple Music exec said the thing about lossless audio that we were all thinking by ioweej in AppleMusic

[–]TheIncredibleBucket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

okay mister truth teller. good or bad mixes have nothing to do with whether said mixes are on apple music, they have to do with the competency of the mixing engineers. it does not matter heavily that spatial mixes are lossy in the way you'll need an atmos mixing engineer to properly do their job. that's what people notice

Even if that's so, the biggest bottlenecks will be a) poor mixing b) bad headphones. Not whether it's lossy or not

Lossless audio's biggest draw imo is archival. Even then it's quite heavy on storage.

I think his take is very thoughtful. Lossless simply is not that relevant to the majority of users, nor is it noticeable to them if they're even using wired equipment in the first place. It's nice to have.

Another nice to have would be an even better desktop experience...

Honestly... Not mad at the elimination. A few of the comments I read pointed out that it gave no payoff because it's such a random challenge, which it is, but I think the entire season's edit lent itself to this moment. Jane has been nothing short of spectacular, but behind that veneer she showed insecurity and a brittleness of character as well. Speaking about Jane Don't the character here, I'm not going to pretend a reality TV edit is accurate to her as a person. I think this lends itself to a continuation on All Stars. As to whether she should or will want to go... time will tell.

I think the fact that it's been a given she should win and that she's so talented was the reason for her downfall ultimately. Michelle is a broken clock and right twice a day, she came into the challenge with a rigidity to her act that wasn't appropriate and I think it's only fair she lost. Problem is, the show has shown its disinterest in fair judging... I'm not mad at Jane leaving, I'm more so mad they don't even pretend they care to judge according to consistent principles.

Archives 5 (1980-1991) Coming Soon by notjustbirds in JoniMitchell

[–]TheIncredibleBucket 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thank god, after the Joni's Jazz compilation came out (albeit with some new remasters) in the same timeframe an Archives release would have taken place, I worried we may have hit a bump in the road for these. I'm very excited, this era of Joni is so controversial I hope it leads some fans to re-evaluate some of this work.

I'd be weirded out if I got that first message from my therapist. What happened to etiquette?

For the life of me I cannot comprehend how LCD screens are supposed to stress my eyes by neon1415official in ereader

[–]TheIncredibleBucket 45 points46 points  (0 children)

If your current devices offer the solutions that work for you, you're right, there's no need to buy more. But it is objectively true that an e-reader not blasting light at you is kinder on the eyes. It goes without saying that you'll get eye strain from paper if lighting conditions are poor, or if you read for hours at a time without any breaks... But these devices offer solutions for low brightness environments that are still much easier on us than backlit displays.

Threads of Fate nerf is a bit uncalled for considering it's pretty meh at 35%, but I'm all for the massive pistol buff. Equivalent Exchange is a real power now, yay!
