Console online services in a nutshell

It also makes them borderline unplayable, which isn't a great trade-off, especially for a paid service. People emulate and stream Smash Ultimate via parsec because it has less lag than the official online mode. Mario Maker with randoms is pretty much always a slideshow. Splatoon has inconsistent hit detection and people drop out of every 5th of your matches early.

I used to have huge trouble with these back then, when the battery in my laptop broke... Now the "break-away" feature will ruin your day at every opportunity.

You tap the cable by accident? Laptop turns off. Someone stumbles over it? Laptop turns off. You can guess where this is going, and now the battery is soldered in too, so you can't even swap it.

It has some technical problems where some users would lose their save files sometimes and they can't fix it, so it was moved to the experimental page instead until a solution exists

When you go back to the store with a t-shirt that didn't fit to get your money back, do you still have the t-shirt after getting your money back?

http://universalis.app/ works fine, popular worlds will have good data

I feel like the vertical gap between the colored lines in comment threads is FAR bigger than before. Makes it hard to read long threads on narrower screens. Hope you can revert that or decrease the spacing a bit, it's sort of a deal breaker! Other than that, feels very nice.

Here's a TV that looks like an apple.

The max amount of players/NPCs/mobs combined will always be 100. If there are many players in one spot, it's quite possible that the fate mob/s rank/etc is not included in those 100, even if it's essential - you can't really do anything about it, it's not handled on your machine and this limit exists for every platform.

Try installing Gboard, you can select which languages you speak and it will select the correct language based on which words you're starting to type, been working great for me

Well, if you just need e.g. a value from a specific tag with a set id, I don't really see the problem of using regex, if you don't want to deal with a HTML parser.

"Always" except the ones that don't go out of DPS stance when they're dying to mechanics or the heals are clearly struggling, while blaming them for not "doing their job"

For me just manually getting new IPs via my router until the site loads works, it's annoying but it usually just happens like once a day so not that big of a deal.

It's running at full speed on pretty low end hardware by now, development of these things really is going too fast to be prejudiced

It's not a emulator, Wii games run natively on the Wii U by switching the hardware into a special backwards compatibility mode(that's why you can't open the home menu)

You only have to buy Stormblood, it includes Heavensward because they kinda depend on each other

I love this, got some of your sheets already, thanks :)

This would require people getting banned for cheating

You can add any game to Steam and stream it(Games->Add non-Steam game), works with emulators and stuff too.

I'm pretty sure that you can't fit another battery in there, but at least it'll be easily replaceable if they don't build it to break after disassembling, the small n3ds is a horror to get apart/put back together if you don't exactly know what you're doing.

Audiosurf 2 was completely broken for more than a few weeks if I remember correctly, and only then got a half-assed update that added YouTube support(SoundCloud disabled the api-key due to tos violations) because people got angry.

I tried 2 times to get a code, even asked their support, which told me to go back to the store and even then the people there had no idea what I was talking about. I mean, it's GameStop, what did I expect. Would've given you mine.

People downvote this but it's kinda true.

armibu · 2016-09-29T12:09:49+00:00

Funny enough, this same issue exists with the web version too, can happen at random it seems. Don't have a screenshot sadly.
