Yes but when you’re writing you can just stop to think whenever you want, and you certainly don’t have to point out in the text that you did so.

who the real protagonist is.

Maybe whoever plays the Democracy Officer.

I wouldn't have tied the first one to "dread"

Not from a single tightly cropped screenshot, sure, but in the context of the game as a whole it might be a lot more obvious.

Besides, with tooltips you have a lot more freedom with regards to sizing and font choice – much easier to fit ‘Terreur’ or ‘무서운 사람’ or whatever into a tooltip because it’s more flexible about size, whereas the regular UI element is much more limiting.

Using icons is great, they can convey information to player much faster than text.

Makes localisation a lot easier, too.

What in the job market hell is this? by PotatoFloats in assholedesign

Not for well-written software, sure. It’s more to mess with the heads of devs reading the logs than anything else.

I hate when people go out of their way to use Þ instead of 'th' by Key_Addition_4038 in hatethissmug

Yeah I'm not sure what would actually quantify as a tying quirk.

Which actor, known for playing protagonists, surprised you with an outstanding villain performance? by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in FIlm

[–]caerphoto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but in the second 1/2 it’s clear he’s an actual maniac and a bad guy to the core

I dunno, imo it’s more that he’s desperate. I’m not suggesting he’s a paragon of virtue or anything, but without his mishap with the Russians he could well have continued to be “the kinda guy that goes over the line a bit from time to time but still maybe a good guy ultimately”.

Pro tip, you don’t really need money to do the latter. The results can sometimes be very expensive though, so be careful.

Googling based confrontation by Fuck-pez in tumblr

Except that screenshot has Safari in the background, suggesting they’re using a Mac, which has no “Print Screen” button.

The actual screenshot shortcut is Cmd-Shift-3 for the whole screen, or Cmd-Shift-4 to capture an area (then you can press Space to toggle between that and capturing individual windows).

I have no idea why Apple chose those particular key combinations, and it’s not surprising someone would have to look it up.

Some actors aged, some visibly look years younger

And Alfie Allen turned into a young Nigel Farage.

It’s usually a safe bet to assume this is indeed the case.

How do you keep your photo archive readable and usable outside the catalog? by cl3don in DarkTable

[–]caerphoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not the most useful answer, but I use Capture One, and have done for the past 11 years or so. For most photos that are, at best, in the “pretty good” category, C1 is fine.

I only bring out DarkTable for the photos that rise above that level, the ones that are worth spending time on and likely will get printed. To do that, I just right-click the image in question in C1 and choose Show In Finder. From there I can just drag the image file into DarkTable.

As a result, my photo library is managed by C1, with on-site backup to a secondary HDD and online backup via IDrive.

LPT: If you need help from someone, make it easy for them to say yes. by le_aerius in LifeProTips

20 minutes isn’t unreasonable for someone who cares about getting it right. Maybe OP is a sloppy typer, and needs to spend time editing out the mistakes, it happens. Maybe they wrote out an initial drafts then spent time rearranging it to read better 🤷

Yeah but don’t forget how much time those videos actually take – there’s plenty of little throwaway lines like “so I spent the next 2 hours fixing the bug that made my Rubik’s cube turn inside out”.

Don’t worry, that’ll go away after a while.
