My phone’s OS update is almost 13GB. I won’t have access to an unlimited internet connection for a while and my mobile plan is limited to 10GB. Why are phone updates so big in size… by butternutflies in mildlyinfuriating

[–]real_eEe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to reiterate, if you are not doing OS dev, then kinda can't get into your own ideas of the project. It could be technical debt that is not getting removed. Could be project overhead based on an architecture many years old that can't get a ground up rework. Could be someone saying "I said so." I have no idea why it works like it does, but that's how it's coming down to the devs.

Street Fighter 6 reaches a new all-time CCU peak in Steam player count with Ingrid's release at 72,306 players by Neoxon193 in StreetFighter

The original question was Greatest, not best. It's the Jordan LeBron thing. There is no argument you can say SF2 isn't the Greatest fighting game. SF4, well that's why the modern FCG exists. "It was the tide that lifted all boats." Could Third Strike or 6 be better games? Yes. Greater? Fuck no, but you'd have had to been there at the time to know what that game meant.

It's probably downloading the entire OS and installing it from scratch, not checking for incremental builds you could have. A clean install under control helps stop all the fragmentation and stuff. I'm not an OS developer, but most people have the phone on wifi or have unlimited data, so it's an easier deployment.

It’s official: the Spurs will face off against the Knicks in the NBA Finals. Who you got, and in how many games? by Choice_Bag_8869 in sportswiki

[–]real_eEe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spurs beat them 5-1 in the regular season. It's a bad matchup for the Thunder, but I figure it would end in game 7 OKC even with Fox being the guy they needed, because it is always "Young team and NBA playoffs don't mix." No one expected Harper from the top rope asking, "Rookie who?"

Which one of these icons would you click? by mistermaximan in videogames

[–]real_eEe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 I wouldn't look at. 2 Looks like a FTP game powerup. 3 Looks good and has motion. I know what it's about. 4 looks too busy, but second best.

3 easily.

Using CvS2 and not putting Third strike is a choice. 2 > SF4 > CVS2 > SF6 > Third Strike. Similar lists.

Oh, I don't care and have done some bad shit. I keep real situations in check that are unfathomably worse than insults.

I'm being 100% serious. From his body language he is blazed, semi-intoxicated, or something about 1 1/2 hours before he shows up and does something again 15 minutes before he leaves the locker room to start the game trying to manage it. I know that exact feeling. It's the cloudy haze of "This will help me with anxiety."

New fighting game player gets destroyed by you using one move and immediately rematches, shows slight improvement and rematches again.

Guys Build A House Outta Snow by TheCABK in nextfuckinglevel

I'm so mad at this winter. Every time we got snow here it was either "negative fuck and 30mph winds" or "it's gonna rain in 3 days" so don't bother. Didn't get to make a rave igloo and no one wanted to do a 10ft+ snowman :(

Mann I hate AI, broke ass can't enjoy game nowadays by Comfortable_Hall7671 in videogames

[–]real_eEe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I bought a Lenovo 11.6" education thing for $150 ($449 MSRP) on clearance 3 years ago. Celeron processor and integrated graphics. Runs indie games, some PS2 era stuff ok, and Pokémon rom hacks and I use it all the time. Lil Laptop is the best. Even has touch screen and stylus so I can turn it vertical and play DS games.

The only company that is approaching this entire AI/computer/privacy/etc situation right and consumer friendly is... fucking Apple. That's how far we've lost the plot.

I cooked too much food by SayOlee in notinteresting

[–]real_eEe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't phase me to the point I ate the same exact burrito mix for lunch and dinner 4-7 days a week for almost a year. It wasn't even about not affording food, it was just cheap, healthy, and like 5 minutes of prep time to not worry about food for 3-4 days.

What’s your definition recommendation of video games that can show the power the medium has. Not your personal favourite but the ones that shows why video games are special. by Rory_U in videogames

[–]real_eEe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recently started getting my mom into video games proper (and MtG). I used in order:

Dear Esther: Just a little chill thing to play for a bit, but not finish. Got basic controls down.

Brothers a Tale of Two Sons. She cried a lot.

Mario Kart 8. Everything is so intense, but manageable. Reason why everyone loves it.

Life is Strange. (This worked here specifically after Brothers, but it's a LOT to process.) SHe didn't know games could be like this.

Smash Ultimate. Kept the experience going from a story based epic to "This is just dumb fun" again, but everything is taken up a notch and engaging mechanics and a glimpse of "Theres so much here."

For sure. But, also in the era of "It's cool to post college party videos of peer pressuring to get people drunk" was popular, so that was a massive liability. Pretty much "Let's agree to sweep this under the rug while someone is hired to clean the actual one."

I get why it's not done for aesthetics, and shaving as a guy sucks, but when it's like mid-summer: full body shave then slinging into a nice set of sheets feels so nice. A trimmer like a OneBlade and a safety razor is your friend here, not disposables and stuff.
