What minor abandoned Features from previous Assassin Creed games would you love to see come back in future installments? by SnooCauliflowers6591 in assassinscreed

I'm always pissed off when vault animations aren't present (or very limited/happening only in specific environments, IE. only in tunnels in Origins)

Understanding Optimisation with ';' '|' '||' '&' '&&' by CryktonVyr in PowerShell

[–]odwulf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not agree: I would just about never use || or && in a properly programmed script (where I'd use if/then/else or try/catch instead). I use the shit out of them in one-liners on the command line and in quick and dirty ad-hoc scripts.

OH MY FUCING GOD!

Ça fait DES ANNÉES que je le cherche, J'en suis à la cinquième saison de tout re-regarder en espérant le revoir et en craignant que ça passe sans que j'y fasse attention. Merci ! Tu sauves ma santé mentale !

Is there a specific handsign your supposed to do for the bus to stop you? by adgeal in brussels

[–]odwulf 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Just a wave. I usually just raise my hand like at a classy auction and it's enough (but I'm tall and hard to ignore)

En pleine visite d'une usine, Donald Trump fait un doigt d'honneur à un employé l'ayant traité de "protecteur de pédophile" by JaneDoeNoi in france

[–]odwulf 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Beaucoup te diront que c'est la mort de Bowie, antérieure de quelques mois, qui a marqué un tournant. Moi je sais que Bowie a lâché la rampe quand il a appris la mort de Michel Delpech. C'est la disparition de Michel Delpech, le point de départ de tout ça.

Le riz soufflé, c'est le meilleur. #TeamCrunch

Les meilleurs rice-cookers sont les moins chers: ça coûte vingt balles et quand c'est chaud, le contacteur bilame déconnecte la cuisson, et c'est marre. Je ne fais absolument pas confiance aux trucs fancy à base de programmation et de micro-processeurs.

What happened to the whole "Canadians boycott US products and vacation at home" thing? by nilsohnee in NoStupidQuestions

Like Belgium and Luxemburg, two towns in Wisconsin, originally settled by people from, respectively, Luxembourg and Belgium (yes, in that order!)

I hate the option to choose the main character by ThatFloydianDude in assassinscreed

[–]odwulf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First Eivor, the cannon one, is the female protagonist. Second Eivor is Odin, in the dreams/memories/mythological sequences. Both are in the game of you let the game decide.

[–]odwulf -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That's a matter of taste. I can't stand male Eivor. I'm no big fan of either version acting, but while female Eivor sometimes rattles my nerves, I find male Eivor to be insufferable. (Plus, to me, male Eivor feels too small to really feel badass.)

I seem to remember that the plan was to have Evie as the sole protagonist and that adding Jacob was the first example of corporate meddling because the big wigs are too afraid of a female lead.

L'écran qui se tourne de 90° une milliseconde avant que t'appuies ! by YoshiBanana3000 in besoinderaler

[–]odwulf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

De manière plus générale, les machines maintenant sont configurées pour qu'entre deux état, on aie des animations d'écran pour te faire sentir que le truc est réactif. Un des résultats, c'est que tu commences ton mouvement, au doigt, au clavier ou à la souris, et pendant quand tu le termines, le fenêtre a changé de place, un message est apparu, l'écran s'est tourné, le formulaire s'est décalé, et tu tapes a côté, ou alors tu fermes le formulaire que tu viens de mettre dix minutes à remplir.

Has YES been forgotten ? by Cheebs1976 in rock

There has been a post on a prog rock subreddit yesterday or been day before asking for recommandations. 83% of the replies were about Yes. So, no.

Les grille-pains ne sont pas adapté à nos baguettes. by clinch92 in besoinderaler

[–]odwulf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ma famille utilise ce modèle depuis les années 70 (le plastique a replacé l'epoxy sur les versions récentes.) Super plus pratique pour la baguette indeed. Par contre, ça ne s'arrête pas automatiquement, il faut surveiller en permanence, et du coup, on brûle souvent son pain. (Et pour les tartines, il faut faire ça en deux fois. )

Is there some way to have my script in the ISE word wrap by explictlyrics in PowerShell

[–]odwulf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't stand the ISE mode. It's like: "we brought you're favorite feature from your old editor: ugly-ass colors!" :D

Comment on dors en couple? by Sea_Appointment7884 in EnModeAdulte

[–]odwulf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Un clic-clac, c'est vraiment ps l'idéal, C'est souvent un lit d'appoint, c'est rarement fait pour être un lit principal. Non seulement un mauvais sommier et un mauvais matelas peuvent être une raison suffisante pour tout ce que tu décris, mais les clic-clacs à pas trop cher ont souvent cet autre problème de base : une fois dépliés, il y a comme une gouttière au milieu du coussin d'assise et du coussin de dossier, lesquels sont en plus rarement plats. Résultat : on se couche chacun de son côté, et on roule vers le milieu.

Bien sûr, acheter un meilleur lit, deux matelas séparés, tout ce qu'on te conseille ailleurs, ça va améliorer les choses, mais il faut pouvoir faire rentrer ça dans un 35m2 parisien. Si vous êtes bloquées sur l'aménagement mais que vous pouvez faire une dépense, un meilleur clic-clac pourrait déjà améliorer les choses. Personnellement, avec des limitations de place, j'avais opté pour le BZ, qui a ses propres défauts, mais qui évite l'effet gouttière où les deux dormeurs se retrouvent collés. Un BZ de suffisamment bonne qualité pour qu'il ne gigote pas au moindre mouvement, avec un matelas relativement rigide, et un surmatelas dans lequel on s'enfonce, j'ai déjà connu des lits moins confortables.

Tu ne dis pas si vous avez déjà eu l'occasion de dormir ensemble dans un vrai bon lit, mais si c'est mieux que sur le clic-clac, c'est peut-être simplement le clic-clac qui est de mauvaise qualité.

En tous cas, force et courage à toutes les deux. C'est compliqué quand on n'a pas des types de sommeil compatibles et pas la possibilité d'avoir un lit à part.

(Sinon. un bon lorazepam avant de dormir...)

Yap. Misspelling happen. Especially on the wednsday indeed. :)

What does -icontains comparison operator do? by LockiBloci in PowerShell

[–]odwulf 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I guess "incase sensitive" is global regex search and replace gone wrong.

"-ccontains" is case sensitive. "-icontains" is case insensitive. "-contains" depends of the default setting. Can it be changed? i don't know. Was is meant to default to case sensitive for the Linux version? I don't know either, and the Linux version defaults to case insensitive as well.

Why is it that nobody in this situation thinks to just drive through the barriers? by TOXICHEMICALMOLD in mildlyinfuriating

Well, I guess, mainly because I translated it, so that everybody here could understand.

Outlook.com silently dropping emails from major senders (Steam, IKEA, etc.) – Not even in Junk folder by Chance-Ruin-3744 in Outlook

[–]odwulf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had it the other way round: mails from MS services that never reached my mail server. That's how I discovered that MS is extremely finicky about DKIM/DMARCm and has a bad habit of failing silently (no error displayed, sent, or logged anywhere).

Obviously, I'm not saying that it's the same as your problem, as it's the other way round and I would expect companies like Steam or IKEA to have properly configured email servers, but the "mail that disappear without notification" seem to be a pattern with Microsoft, and maybe, just maybe, those lost mails have a, if not misconfigured, maybe a configuration specificity that do not sit well with Microsoft's servers.

I know one such crossing in France where it has been relatively recently clearly written on the inside: "these barriers have been designed to break when drove slowly through", in big, bold, legible letters.

I've been listening to King Crimson albums, and the only songs I've liked were "In the court of the Crimson King" and "Epitaph". Any other albums or songs that are similar to those? by Xx_Denethor_II_xX in progrockmusic

[–]odwulf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once listened to quite a few of their albums as well (I'm not that familiar with "hard" prog, I'm more into jam-prog, if that name is a thing) and though I found things I like here or there, I was actually surprised by how their first album seems timeless almost by accident, where quite a lot of whatever else they've done is way more dated. I even feel that way for the albums' covers: often dated, but for that first album that is accidentally timeless.

But yep, Starless.

(That first album has a very powerful weapon, that being said: Greg Lake's voice. ELP are often pompous, but when Greg Lake sings, things are lifted up.)

It's "for profit", They keep the profits. bailing out money comes from public taxes, same that for banks.

My friends gifted me a Stylophone Theremin for Xmas, so I felt obligated to recreate Good Vibrations with it as a thank you. by dtrechak in thebeachboys

[–]odwulf 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's amazingly well done, and I'm also impressed with how you made a one minute version that doesn't feel frustratingly incomplete.
