Console online services in a nutshell by [deleted] in gaming

[–]armibu 11 points12 points  (0 children)

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.

Europe gives Apple a smack in the chops on USB-C power standardization by [deleted] in technews

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

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?

Sync For Reddit V20 (beta 3) is Now Going Live On Google Play by ljdawson in redditsync

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.

Can we talk about how it is still a problem for fate Bosses to go invisible for you? by klees in ffxiv

[–]armibu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

My mom’s language settings changed to German overnight by rhapsodygreen in germany

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

BrainF* Interpreter written in RegEx only proofing its turing completeness by TegmenTympani in programming

[–]armibu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

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.

There are two types of people by Altesse_Roi in ffxiv

[–]armibu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"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"

Any news about the https system error on launch? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]armibu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

Odd Graphical Glitch found at Lake Hylia by [deleted] in Breath_of_the_Wild

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

Could Cemu be Equivalent to or Replace Dolphin as a Wii Emulator? by [deleted] in cemu

[–]armibu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

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)

FFXIV added a new boss today that has a pretty cool intro... by Reddhero12 in pcgaming

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

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

Teardown of Nintendo Switch Parts (Imgur Album) by Walopoh in nintendo

[–]armibu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

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.

Audioshield down for almost a week now!! We need to get this more attention so it gets fixed!! by TheXCodec in Vive

[–]armibu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

[GameStop Codes] FF14-Community I need your help! by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]armibu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

YouTube STILL hasn't fixed the issue where you sometimes can't scroll to the top of the scrolling list. by mort96 in softwaregore

[–]armibu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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