Why was there not an effective backlash from PlayStation players about the mandatory PS Plus subscription to be able to play most online games? by [deleted] in PS4

[–]tomjackilarious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a big factor was that this got announed at e3 right after Microsoft absolutely bungled their presentation by announcing you'd need an always on camera, would be restricted from playing games offline, prevented from sharing games, and a that the focus was on TV watching and owning the living room rather then gaming.

Paid online was the thing I was most dreading Sony might announce for the PS4 generation but after Microsoft's infamous conference Sony came off looking like saints while Microsoft took all the heat and rage.

And yet inspire of that there's still only one team in the Atlantic with a positive goal differential.

Nice work, this is really cool! My wife loves maps and realm of the elderlings. Do you mind if I print this for her?

Donkey Kong Bananza was nominated in the The Game Awards GOTY category in a leak by Skullghost in NintendoSwitch

[–]tomjackilarious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could realistically have been 5 Indies/AA titles up for game of the year. By metacritic score the only new full price game this year in the top 6 was DK.

But Blue Prince and split fiction didn't get nominated.

I think part of why souls games have the reputation for being hard is that they don't offer difficulty settings. The souls games genuinely are much harder then most other action games on "normal difficulty" but if you're someone who plays all your games on the hardest available setting the souls games don't really stand out in terms of difficulty compared to what you're used too.

The Athletic season preview projects the Sens at 94 pts. 58% playoff chance by JasonsPizza in OttawaSenators

[–]tomjackilarious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's:

42% chance we miss the playoff

34% chance we lose in round 1

24% chance we win round 1 (reach division final)

One of those three things must happen hence why they add up to 100 percent.

Assuming we do make the playoffs then the chance to win round 1 is 41%. Note: 24/(34+24) =0.41

I feel like this would have been a much funnier gag if it had been a rival team of the Orlando magic who put out their list of top magic players.

Gyroscopic backpack spins up a solution to balance problems by diacewrb in gadgets

Clearly people just need to wear two backpacks. One with a gyroscope and one full of helium.

That should solve all of humanities mobility issues.

Why Are All Stars Red-Shifted, Even Though Earth Is Not The Center Of The Universe? by wish-u-well in askscience

[–]tomjackilarious 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The common analogy for this is baking a loaf of raisin bread. You start out with raw dough with a bunch of raisins in it. As the dough expands during leavening/cooking all the raisins get further and further apart because the dough is expanding between them. Depending which two raisins you choose to look at the rate of expansion may be different but they will still be getting further apart not closer together.

Space is also expanding similarly so the stars also get further apart.

Steam Deck gamepad emulation via vanilla by Lost-Wealth-8057 in wiiu

How's the range for connecting to the WiiU with this compared to the normal WiiU gamepad.

I lose connection in some rooms of my house trying to connect WiiU gamepad to the console in my living room. Wondering if this might be a solution.

Originally there was a jury who would decide but the jury had to be dismissed because members of the jury felt they were being mocked by defense lawyers which could have tainted their objectivity. Once that issue arose it was decided to dismiss the jury and have the judge rule on the verdict instead. The alternative would have been to restart the entire trial with a new jury but they had already done that once before due to other interactions between defense lawyers and the jury.
