It’s just good clean fun. Approachable at any level and at any age or gender. The one that came with the PS5 was just brilliant. Deserved!

I believe Microsoft has a patent for launching different functions if a button is double clicked versus a single click.

Strange that you can patent a game mechanic in software. What’s next, the superhero landing? The vpose with a bent leg? Running a certain way with a gun between waypoints?

Ysk it all depends on who’s funding the study.

It’s plenty loud. The fan kept kicking in on GOWs map screen for some reason. I think you’re talking about the ps4 slim.

I had a PS4 pro. Didn’t feel any tangible benefits over the standard model.

Right behind the budget trekkie? It’s Halloween season I guess.

Baking soda, ramen and super glue or gtfo

Time to bring in the Joes, then!

Would have involved massive amounts of CGI for a story and plot that could have been done in any number of other ways. Loved the game, but probably not a fan of anything live action.

I really liked the one that came with the PS5. It was both a great introduction to the controller, as well as a homage to the PlayStations of the past.

Does it have loops? And barrel rolls?

Can believe. I was involved with a digital music startup once, and learned that the labels take the vast majority of the sticker price. The artist would make bank from concerts, but only took home maybe 5%. The songwriter got majorly screwed with 0.5%. The reason they gave was their ‘distribution channels’. Digital distribution was supposed to get rid of this bullshit. Dunno if this has changed.

I feel this is the same with engineers versus the c-level 'idea people’s. Talent (i.e. the people doing the work) is grossly underpaid. Turns out passion doesn’t pay the bills most of the time.

I’d like to see them try, though…

If people say ‘i have excel competence’, the difference could be between ‘i can resize fonts and do tables for my company forms because I don’t know how to do them in word’ to ‘fully modelling a business plan for a Telco, including it’s subsidiary units’. Make sure you test for the level of competence you’re after.

Learn a new formula every now and then, or at very least learn to read other people’s formulas, then google what you don’t know. Literacy in any field is the result of a long process of learning.

(Reread your question) Outside of IT: if an appliance stops working, it’s sometimes just a fuse that needs replacing. It’s cheap and easy to do.

Not a dishwasher, but may be related. I air dry my clothes indoors, sometimes overnight, and used to get that damp rag smell on my clothes as a result. Solution: toss in a tbs of baking soda - no more smell.

I don’t think that at all. But I have met a number of kids who seem to think they absolutely need red cameras, Mac studios, and other ‘broadcast quality’ items to make a simple college video. The point was exactly that: if you’re.good, it doesn’t matter the equipment. It’ll show.

If that’s his studio setup, it just goes to show that talent can make magic out of literally anything. Hats off to the man!

I just watched a pro orchestral musician have a reaction to the ac version of one winged angel. It just blew his mind!

Anyone who’s not an influencer who bought it solely for the likes, fully intending to return it, care to chime in about the thing?
