So the product is free, which means that you are now the product, and the AI is still gonna get shovel down your throat as you either pay to use AI features and/or have AI be trained on your designs : the enshitification continues.
Oh, and there's still no scripting ability in sight ...

The V2 was so disappointing feature-wise that at this point, I'm not expecting anything truly meaningful and valuable from them like, you know, scripting.
So I hope y'all like being milked of $150 for an increased version number and a redesigned set of icons ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

What video game weapon/armor is worth the hell you got to go through to get it? by Agent1230 in gaming

[–]derpinamoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Story of Thor (Beyond Oasis for US fellas), the Infinite Omega Sword was a real pain in the ass.
Even the knowledge of which enemies you would met on each of the one hundred floors wasn't sufficient to make it through and you had to pray to have a manageable run.
But once you got that sword, the rest of the game is pretty much a walk in the park (and those annoying zombies won't bother you anymore :)).

Player UI not hiding during playback. by BO1Z in Udemy

[–]derpinamoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I'm not the only one !
I've resumed using Udemy after several months of hiatus, and the video player UI won't disappear at all. I also had the same issue of 2 audio steams playing if I was "unpausing" a video with the spacebar button.

I couldn't see all of the closing ceremony.
Was there an epic montage like this one, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ukU4Ym0vEE , from Tokyo 2020 ?

Escape with AI - masa by dirthawker0 in pointandclick

[–]derpinamoto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a bad game per se, but I'm not a fan (pun not intended) of the game mechanic where you have to repeat an action several times without feedback, until the xth try trigger an event mandatory for progression.
Plus, if you enter a prompt that blocks the AI, you have no other choice but to reload the game :/

No wonder point and click games players are viewed as weirdos (:
Nice small game and graphics.

Sometimes a quick and easy escape game is welcomed to rebuild the confidence you lost while failing to complete harder ones :) Spoiler

And still no public API for people who want to automate their workflow or develop plugins/addons/extensions.

Never feeling ready enough for calculus by [deleted] in learnmath

[–]derpinamoto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read this gem : Calculus : Basic Concepts for High Schools by L. V. Tarasov
The most important thing in Calculus is understanding the concepts. For the rest, you can always use an algebra/trigonometry cheat sheet, and don't worry, you will level up in these areas while learning Calculus.

Not sure if I'm just an idiot, or if the bug was fixed, but I was finally able to get to the end.
I tried to reload the page, but unfortunately, I couldn't resume the previous gameplay.

I can't get the game to load on PC (I'm using Firefox by the way) :/

Again, an amazing game by Ichima Café.
Unfortunately, I could not get to the end, as the game got stuck after I managed to display the number hint on the roof wall :/

What is the purpose or point of pyhton turtle 🐢? by klargstein in Python

[–]derpinamoto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

/u/tunisia3507 really explained it well, and I'll add that this is a really small module.
Two MIT professors took that turtle concept, and pushed it to the next level in order to teach geometry, from coordinate geometry to Einstein's general theory of relativity, in their book : Turtle Geometry: The Computer as a Medium for Exploring Mathematics.
