triple the price if that means we eventually find out what those talking spheres do

if only they knew that in the 14th century, millions of lives would have been saved

you guys use plates??

that's a beautiful story that happened to me as well

horns up, mate

you shot him right in the hill

like it or not, those are the people who make text search against videos possible

I guess I should start answering... what if it's Obama?

you should look up the brazilian one

I recently tried Aoe II definitive edition. they managed to massacre the UI so much it hurts my eyes... that alone made me issue a refund also £15 for a 25 year old game. you'd expect it to be better in every aspect at the very least

Testurdays are the worst

dirty mike n the boys

but won't it eventually fade from search results due to SEO?

ah that's a cool thing you are doing! my apologies for the mistake

I do the occasional digital work. will make sure to post it here whenever I come up something decent. would love to see some discussion threads about this subject as well :D

subscribing in the meantime

good luck!

great post

I feel like a similar thing happens because of social media like Instagram. people constantly lose the opportunity to tell others all about the things they do because they already did that in batch. what could easily become dozens of small conversations with different people, where one could add their own flavour to the story and improve it, making it ever more interesting each time it is told, ends up not happening at all. silent scrolling and tapping instead

on top of that, multimedia usually translates real moments badly - for the better or worse: that giant hill becomes tiny and boring or that perfect angle hides the ugly part of the scene and looks beautiful. not to mention the fact that they are taking away part of enjoying real moments for the sake of creating online content

I, myself, don't do this. but I often travel with people who do and I lost track of the times I meet someone afterwards and start talking about it, only to be stopped with a "oh I saw it all already". and I really can't blame anyone, since it's a very easy trap to fall into and it's even expected of you in some social circles

interestingly, anedoctaly, I'm an absolute skeptic about almost everything, including astrology, religion and the such, but this test was so on spot from me I had a real hard time being convinced it was pseudoscience

it's really annoying how bad this experiment is explained to the general public. the wording generally used is so poor it implies there's something supernatural about the phenomenon

I'm not a physicist, but as far as I understand the principle, any human actively looking at the experiment changes absolutely nothing. what it really postulates is that light behaves as a wave until it is interacted with. at that point, the wave "collapses" and it starts to behave as a particle, positioned somewhere within the probability zone described by the wave initially. when you measure it in any way, using some measuring tool, it inevitably interacts with it

I keep hearing people repeat this idea that "they" destroyed the free internet. but isn't the internet still free and wild? can't I just create a website by myself and be as creative as I want just like the olden days?

to me, the biggest shift has been in the people, who let themselves simmer in the capitalist pan frog-style as companies took over. we stopped looking at the internet as a place to roam and explore and now expect content to be spoon-fed to us like we didn't have a choice... we just turned from brave explorers into lazy customers (and products) by our own will (though whether free will even exists is a whole other conversation hehe)

another interesting aspect here is the capitalist mindset that things are not worth if they aren't productive. in the internet this translates as reach and engagement. there have been absurdly long debates here about the "success" of lemmy/fediverse based solely on quantitative metrics. there's still internet beyond big techs and content aggregators but we simply don't think of them as relevant

what's the main engine looking like? only using pedometer? if yes, what's the availability of the sensor nowadays?

asking because I used to run a similar kind of game years ago and I had to give up because it was a very difficult fight against battery optimization tools, localisation/sensor policies, etc

I find it funny that sharing any type of take about these "sensitive subjects" is a russian roulette kind of thing these days

posting either this comment or the comic itself in slightly different times of the day and communities could be the difference between praise and roast
