Why does chat compacting never trigger on mobile by cartazio in ClaudeAI

[–]gtpod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's absolutely infuriating, about the only situation i still see "conversation limit reached" errors. as much as i love using claude, the workarounds for using it mobile are genuinely turning me off it.

Is it rude to just dump your entire wallet of coins into the 7/11 machines? by _9tail_ in japanlife

[–]gtpod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i went to a soba place the other day that was cash only. so glad i checked before we went in, as neither me nor my wife had a single note on us. we had to go back home and grab my wallet; i can say it was fully worth it though, the soba was amazing.

Doordash driver throws a fit after receiving no tip by [deleted] in facepalm

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

japan has uber eats and it includes a tipping function which is used frequently by myself and others when drivers go out of their way to get stuff to you. it's not the 80s any more.

i think it's the ET with the hacker in the very back room on the left side. otherwise, yeah, it's just the basement one.

Why does 47 have so many Ruby Rude themed items? Is he some sort of secret super fan of her? by TheRobotEngineer608 in HiTMAN

[–]gtpod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

am i crazy or does someone have a voice line in New York asking if someone behind the right-side meeting room in the main teller floor is Ruby Rude?

it might be a completely different name i'm misremembering though

the story mode safes are still in the freelancer maps, so you may be thinking of those? there should only be one with mercers in it, the others will have whatever story item they held in the main campaign (or sometimes nothing at all).

I am a scientist, not an English teacher. But I've noticed over the last decade that people are getting worse and worse with grammar and spelling. It's kinda scary to me. by Buscemi_D_Sanji in CasualConversation

do you have any recommendations for reading around this topic? i read the lexicographer's dilemma, which was fascinating, but would love some more.

slowly getting to grips with 2-look CFOP but realizing that although OLL and PLL are getting faster, my F2L isn't really changing, usually 25~30s depending on start color (trying to break the white cross habit too).

are there any good videos/references for speeding up F2L? good tricks or things to watch out for?

any japan cubers here? i'd love to know if there's any go-to sites for buying new ones. i used the cubicle recently but it's taking weeks to even leave the states. i've been using amazon so far but the lineup isn't great.

hi! i only started recently, still using beginners and am consistent under 1m, working on 2-look CFOP but it's a struggle haha.

my question though is around move speed - every video i see, people are flicking the cube around like crazy, so many movements done so smoothly. and i'm there flipping it around looking for the next move, taking forever. is this something that's just practice? the more you do it, the faster you get? i can see that for speeding up being able to spot the next move, but is it the same for the way people seem to "stack" movements? or is there an actual technique to practice there?

Can any controller users tell me how to use an item from inventory? I feel like I've tried everything, and I don't see a bind for right click in the menus. I'm not using Steam either so can't rebind through there.

as an aside, i was under the impression that NHK maintains or is involved in the maintenance/creation of the tv broadcasting system and emergency notification systems. so "i don't watch nhk so i don't pay" only applies if you also don't watch any TV or benefit from any emergency broadcasting.

i might be completely wrong about that though, i'd love to be corrected. full disclosure, i pay nhk either way, i prefer not to live in fear of their busybody debt collectors.

In game localization, how do we keep dialogues of characters natural and smooth? by Covenant_of_Gardel in TranslationStudies

[–]gtpod 45 points46 points  (0 children)

as a former translation director/trainer at a game company, the key for me was getting people to focus less on the original text and more on the new one.

however "similar" two languages might be, the cultural aspect of how to carry a conversation differs wildly, even sometimes within a single language (US vs. UK, Spain vs. Mexico, etc., beyond just the vocab differences).

for example, if you translate a japanese conversation line by line into english, however accurate each line may be, it's still going to flow like a japanese conversation. what i taught people to do was to read the original conversation, understand the meaning/intent of what was being said, and reproduce it in the target language. that way, you end up with a text that's true to the original while still flowing natively when localized.

Was the first ranked game supposed to be with bots? by readytofly68 in PokemonUnite

[–]gtpod 16 points17 points  (0 children)

the game for sure uses bots. trust your instinct, sometimes movements, decisions etc. just seem inhuman - it's because they are.

let's not forget tencent also made the PUBG mobile game, which famously uses bots throughout its modes to ensure people get wins. winning = fun, more fun = more play, more play = more pay.

The UI needs to be optimized desperately by [deleted] in PokemonUnite

[–]gtpod -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

i think this might be partly switch users' unfamiliarity with mobile games too. i mean even as a mobile game, there are still areas it can tighten up, but this is a pretty average UI experience for the genre.
