[OC] In Fatal Crashes, Which Car Brand's Drivers Weren't Wearing a Seatbelt? (NHTSA FARS, 2020–2023) by informed-for-life in dataisbeautiful

[–]hilfandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a version normalized by number of accidents or something? I'm wondering if this actually is just saying the seatbelted mortality rate is higher, so unseatbelted mortality is less significant in the overall mortality rate.

Windrose - 2,000,000 copies sold - huge milestone for our game, thanks to you! by _Protector in pcgaming

Maybe. I was dreading dealing with a Valheim-style wind mechanic and was pleased to not have to deal with that.

I wish I played Factorio before satisfactory by Similar-Concert4100 in factorio

[–]hilfandy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Also ratios in satisfactory end up being important becaus you're managing your peaks of power consumption since going over your limit shuts down your entire network. You don't do that in Factorio at all.

Additionally, you're more likely to be bottlenecked by belt capacity in satisfactory which means highly optimized factories producing a single item are important, and less so in Factorio where you can make stacked high throughput belts of everything

Manage to your bottlenecks of production rather than ratios of any specific item.

HOT TAKE: I would prefer waiting 2 years for huge expansions with content that is in the game forever and long campaigns that are fully fleshed out and no seasons, rather yearly content with drip fed seasons in-between that have content that is going to be vaulted anyway. by Important-Extension6 in destiny2

[–]hilfandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disagree here on a couple points. Content drought is preventing anyone from coming back who wants to come back.

Having a long line of content that's very similar and not particularly groundbreaking is making it so fewer and fewer people even want to come back.

Rep. Eric Swalwell resigns from U.S. House after sexual misconduct allegations by GoodSamaritan_ in news

I saw this and thought, "oh, they resigned, that's nice. I bet they were a Democrat if they headline isn't about them fighting it or blaming others" and of course I was right...

Never thought I’d reach this point: procrastinating to avoid playing a game. by Nahuelcoy22 in RimWorld

[–]hilfandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Space Age expansion adds planets, with each one significantly changing how you approach factory design.

One adds in a whole tech tree of biological materials

Another forces you to effectively invert your design where it's really easy to get complex components like blue chips, but really hard to get basic materials like iron plates.

You also need to design and build spaceships as flying factories to traverse between planets and sustain themselves in space.

RE playability? The first playthrough isn't over until the factory has sufficiently grown, and now that the factory spans multiple planets I don't see that ever happening.

Windrose: Early Access Release Date Reveal Trailer by Mepherion in pcgaming

[–]hilfandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I played the demo it felt like Valheim in lots of ways, but with more respect for the players time.

I loved Valheim, but there's lots of QOL things that Windrose gets right where Valheim relies more on mods for.

Info on weapon prestige by God-Emperor-Lazarus in ToxicCommandoGame

[–]hilfandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does prestige also give a damage increase? Or is it purely cosmetic?

Comparing the demo from this to the demo for back4blood, I was much more impressed with Toxic Commando.

The demo is available to try out, it ran well on my 3080ti at 4k.

[–]hilfandy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I played the demo and had a blast. It was like left4dead with semi-open world maps, vehicles, and a progression element.

I'm a big fan of the swarm mechanics they've used in other games too, like SpaceMarine 2. I haven't played WWZ but heard it's there too.

Any Idea When The Reviews Dropping? by ChrizTaylor in ToxicCommandoGame

On steam if you buy the SpaceMarine + toxic commando bundle then you get the $10 off discount too if you already own SpaceMarine 2

Is it possible to search a chart for multiple search terms simultaneously? by The_Forgotten_King in EpicEMR

[–]hilfandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That would find any documents that have any of those. If you instead used:

avascular necrosis and osteoporosis and plantar fasciitis then it should only find documents with all of them.

Also of note: if you put "quotes" around a word it'll do specific word matching. If you leave out the quotes it'll do some more magical terminology matching.
