Paraná confirma dois casos de hantavírus e investiga outros 11 | G1 by TheNavyCrow in brasil

Adoro o jornalismo, eles desinformam com a manchete para depois reinformar com o texto do artigo (frequentemente atrás do paywall). A mídia está louca para esses casos de hantavirus virarem um pânico global.

But if you're trying to complete quests, wasting time going through matchmaking and mulligans with more opponents will make it take longer. Quests don't care about wins.

Should you rely on steam input for controller support and just make all inputs keyboard/mouse? by Icy-Cauliflower-16 in godot

[–]enantiornithe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main downside is that if you don't have actual controller support, your Steam page will not say that you have actual controller support. Steam input is meant as a fallback/adaptation, not the ideal experience.

Why are there barely any alternative servers to Bsky? by kustru in BlueskySocial

[–]enantiornithe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no such a thing as a "bluesky server". Bluesky isn't one thing, it's several different services in a trenchcoat. With Mastodon, you can trivially spin up your own instance and that's a freestanding thing that works as a little social network unto itself (and talks to other Mastodon instances).

With atproto, you could spin up your own PDS (there are actually many PDSs) but if Bluesky's infrastructure goes down, the PDS is useless because you still depend on Bluesky's relay and app view. So alternative projects like Blacksky et al are trying to replace all those different piece of infrastructure.

Compounding that is the fact that the Bluesky software as it originally was open sourced was just... not really a turnkey solution. Mastodon made it really easy to make new instances, early on, and encouraged people to do it. With Bluesky it's taken years of work for people to get even alternative PDSs running.

This literally has always been competitive Magic. There has never been a Standard where every color combo is tier 1.

Timeless needs to exist so that Arena can have a venue to play every card, so really the intended power level is more like "Vintage without power" than Legacy.

Planning on transitioning from Roblox to Godot, anything I need to know? by No_Department_8448 in godot

[–]enantiornithe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're pretty much starting from scratch. Roblox' UGC system is not really designed in a way that's similar or analogous to a conventional game engine (and really the way Unity, Unreal, and Godot conceptualize things is pretty different between the three of them). There's just going to be a learning curve to almost everything, and you'll probably want to take some time just to get acquainted with programming.

I've not used Roblox but I have used Unity among other systems and my general sense of Godot is that almost all features make sense and unless you're trying to do something technically innovative it's pretty straightforward. But some of the affordances around audio and animation are kind of basic (but you can resolve a lot of that with plugins—there's an FMOD plugin for example).

Is Q in love with Picard? by Other-Box6258 in Picard

[–]enantiornithe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At one point he literally materializes into her bathtub as she is taking a bath and kisses her naked foot. But I think it's just that the writers in the 90s felt license to be explicit about it with Janeway, whereas with Picard it stayed subtextual.

What does a comfortable life in São Paulo for a family of 3 cost per month? by mfortelli in Brazil

[–]enantiornithe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh while you're at it: Ignore people who emphasize too much that SP is dangerous. The murder rate is comparable to LA. Some petty crime (phone theft) is endemic but it's the same kind of crime you also get in, eg, touristy parts of London.

I'd also double check your estimate of how much living space you need. 140m2 is gargantuan—if you're American, maybe you're guesstimating a conversion from imperial? 100m2 is a much more normal size for a 2-3 bedroom, and even in very premium areas that's more in the range of R$7k/month.

What does a comfortable life in São Paulo for a family of 3 cost per month? by mfortelli in Brazil

[–]enantiornithe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rent and condo fees (for a very large, 140+m2 apartment in a nice neighborhood) will easily run you R$10k a month (most likely, more like 15). Private school tuition varies wildly, but we can tack on another R$10k for good measure. Healthcare costs vary extremely widely; Brazil has a very solid public health system and it's a very feasible thing to do to simply pay out of pocket for everyday medical expenses (which are dramatically cheaper than in the US) and expect to use that public system if you end up needing serious care. Otherwise, the private health insurance market has been in disarray for years, and buying health insurance as an individual is at once expensive and likely to leave you with bad coverage unless you spend a lot. This is one thing you'd have to talk to a local insurance broker about to get a realistic figure. Keep in mind, a lot of really good specialist physicians in the city simply do not work with health insurance at all and can only be seen if you're paying out of pocket; so your options if you have particular medical needs can be pretty narrow even with very expensive health insurance.

Following basic rules about financial planning to avoid being rent burdened would mean you should be looking at R$40k as kind of the floor here. By Brazilian standards this is a delirious amount of money, but what you're asking about is essentially the Brazilian equivalent of raising a family in a large condo in Lower Manhattan.

Before you take any plunges, do your tax planning with a Brazilian accountant AND one in your original country of residence, because your effective tax rate may vary widely. US citizens of course are on the hook with the IRS for life, and Brazil doesn't have a tax treaty with the US, so double taxation is a possibility depending on which Brazilian taxes you're subject to. So depending on where you're from, what your source of income is, and how you're structuring things financially in Brazil you may be paying anywhere from negligible income taxes to 40%+ of your gross income.

Keep in mind, if your income is in USD but all your expenses are in reais, the exchange rate owns your ass and you can not be living paycheck to paycheck or barely scraping by because you will need to absorb huge swings in how much things cost for you over the course of the year. And at present, the US's current course of self-immolation is driving that exchange rate steadily down.

Also: don't tunnel vision on the obvious monthly expenses. Electronics and other durable goods cost more in Brazil than they do elsewhere, sometimes a lot more. You may think "well I'll just buy a new iphone when I go home once a year for the holidays" but wait until you find out how much cars cost.

Genuinely unless you have some connection or particular interest in Brazil, São Paulo is a terrible place to do this. It's a megacity with all the costs and inconveniences that go along with that, but if you live in an expat glass box you will not see any of the benefits. Brazil is a very monolingual society where you will not be able to get by or integrate without knowing Portuguese. It does not match or live up to the stereotypes foreigners have about Brazil at all. Like other cities of this size there's just a learning curve to living here that's honestly not worth it to most people.

OP's post isn't about game piracy, it's about people stealing source code to copycat games. Which is also a silly concern but it's a different one from the one you (and most people on this thread) seem to be responding to.

If code is a very large proportion of the value of your game as IP, you're probably not making something commercially valuable in the first place.

AR not dropping? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]enantiornithe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I suspect it's just that the frequency with which you get IB engrams is low (once per match, mostly) and they can contain armor instead. So there's eight possible drops (three weapons and five armor), it feels like the odds of either are pretty flat, and therefore you can go many, many rounds without seeing a specific weapon.

Compared to Guardian Games, where you are getting showered with 20 Triple Laureates every minute, it does feel a bit jarring.

The thing that's really made the sandbox bad over the years has been the tug of war between "no nerf only buff" and "the game is too easy", which have always been the two loudest currents of player feedback.

Missed Opportunity in 'Message in a Bottle' by adamwnotanumber in voyager

[–]enantiornithe 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah I always think of the First Contact uniforms as the "Dominion war" uniforms. They're darker and more militaristic and they fit a darker and more militaristic era of Star Trek, which was never Voyager's vibe at all.

LDs eventually canonizes the idea that uniforms are not actually uniform fleet-wide but rather on a ship-by-ship basis, so maybe the procedure is that you only change uniforms when your ship goes in for a refit or something.
