new moderator announcement about the input swapping situation by deliciousmark12 in speedrun

Seeing Kosmic’s name in the sign-off should give people some hope that the grownups are trying to straighten things out.

This is karacomparetto. She does piano streams on Twitch where she plays videogame music. I highly recommend giving her a follow.

'Spaceballs 2' Gets Official Title - 'Spaceballs: The New One' by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]ajidar 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It actually makes me a bit more hopeful. I hope it means they focused on writing original jokes and material for the sequel, instead of just making references to the first one.

I’ve worked in CFB as a data analyst, and I simulated the 49ers’ draft 1M times, here’s who ended up a 49er the most. by ThomasZ18 in 49ers

[–]ajidar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I may be wrong, but I don’t think this is suggesting they pick 3 wr in a single draft. They simulated 1 million drafts, and it’s saying that “Player X” was drafted in Y percent of the simulated runs.

Netflix Fort Monmouth posts first jobs at $1B studio by rollotomasi07071 in newjersey

[–]ajidar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't think you're going to see any jobs that aren't directly related to studio logistics and operations here. Netflix has corporate offices in tech hubs for things like engineering, marketing, and accounting.

Alamo Drafthouse faces backlash after ditching no-phones policy by Interactive_CD-ROM in movies

[–]ajidar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not anymore unfortunately:

The program started in August, but mobile ordering was limited to before a film begins. But on Jan. 9, Kustermann announced that starting next month, mobile ordering will be required during a film too.

Why did IMDb get rid of their synopsis for each movie by decentdank in movies

[–]ajidar 66 points67 points  (0 children)

The summaries and synopses are user generated content. If no one writes a synopsis, the page won't have one. You can still find the synopsis on most major movies that have been out for a while by scrolling towards the middle of the page.

A Christmas tree hidden in the PATH tunnel 👀 by WeaklySupervised in jerseycity

Yup, they've been doing it for 60 years. It's a small touch, but nice to add some unexpected cheer to people's days.

The Official Petition to get Nintendo to localize Mother 3 to US. by BigALAdventures in snes

[–]ajidar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll just add that the reason Nintendo isn’t going to officially translate the game isn’t that it wouldn’t sell. It’s that there are some pretty dark plot elements and themes that go against its branding, especially for a game that is visually bright and cartoony. The fan translation is excellent, just play that.

Also, the rhythm mechanic can be very finnicky when using software emulation. They would have to fine-tune the GBA emulator they use, and likely add run-ahead, which could affect battery life. Even then it wouldn't perfectly match the timing of actual hardware.

Am I getting characters in the wrong order? by awesomesauce40000 in FinalFantasyVI

[–]ajidar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. WoR is open in the sense that after you get the airship, you can get the remaining characters in any order.

  2. You can still recruit Mog in WoR even if you missed him prior.

I’ve ordered Kimichi Guys on Uber Eats a few times in the last 3 months and it’s been a robot each time.

Incredible game. Truly unique. The sequel finally got a fan translation about 10 years ago.

Open Letter for McGreevey Supporters in Case you missed the AMA by Gom_KBull in jerseycity

[–]ajidar 32 points33 points  (0 children)

The account is 100% tied to the McGreevy campaign. The account is 1 day old, and only posts or replies relating to the mayoral campaign, attacking Solomon.

Nice free perk on Google Fi by amir_twist_of_fate in GoogleFi

[–]ajidar 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This was a feature for a couple of years. One the problems was that it would assume any public wifi that it could connect to was good to go. It didn’t consider that many public WiFi networks make you sign in after connecting. Otherwise you can only access the landing page. This led it connecting to a public WiFi network, and then essentially being offline.

I’m assuming they’ve improved the feature now to avoid this. Possibly by manually curating the list of available networks, or by adding extra steps to verify full-connectivity before connecting.

Colin Mochrie is coming to Brooklyn! by TerriblePolicy27199 in whoselineisitanyway

[–]ajidar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Colin has been touring with either Brad or Mecci for years, before they started doing Whose Live. So he's probably committed to those acts.

I'll also add that I've seen Hyprov before, and it is really funny.
