More fun to vary the pitch and length of the beep rather than the number of beeps.

Bernie would never allow robots to be evil, but he would allow them a little salami.
But six pairs is twelve. Twelve of a kind!
Also who knows how many loopholes. Apparently the word of God is very precise and is meant to be followed to the letter, except when it’s inconvenient, in which case you hang strings between your house and your neighbors’ so you can wander the neighborhood when you’re supposed to stay home.
That guy looks like the weekly bad guy on a episode of Starsky and Hutch from the 70’s
You’re not wrong, but that’s also just a persona he plays, the hair and mustache are both fake. I don’t know how close the persona is to the real person, but I’m sure he’s hamming it up to some extent, just not enough to be a good person pretending.
Simple explanation, the higher the bitrate, the more data is dedicated to each frame to be displayed, so the higher the quality of each frame assuming the same resolution. This means fewer artifacts/less blocking, less color banding, etc.
Lower bitrate is the opposite, basically. The video is more compressed, and in the process it throws out as much information as possible while trying to maintain acceptable quality. The lower the bitrate, the more information is thrown out for the sake of a smaller filesize.
Resolution is the biggest factor that affects picture quality at the same bitrate. A 1080p video has a quarter of the resolution of a 2160p video, so it takes much less data to maintain a high quality picture.
Lots of waterproof clothes about to disappear from the shelves. Gore-tex for example is just teflon-coated fabric.
Le 1er juillet c’est la fête du Canada aussi, faut pas oublier. Y’a beaucoup de jeunes qui viennent boire chez nous parce qu’en Ontario faut avoir 19 ans.
columbo deserves a reboot
Nah, we don’t need everything we’re nostalgic for to be rehashed for the newer generation.
You sound like a fun person.
I’m into thicc Earth conspiracies
I’m glad to see Montreal moving forward, despite all the people complaining about everything Plante does. Most of her measures have had a positive impact on the city.
With the introduction and expansion of the REM, the expansion of bike lanes, the pedestrian streets in the summer, etc., I think we’re making good progress towards reducing the need for a car.
Zero Mission and Fusion were too hand-holdy for me. It was kind of annoying being told where to go and how to get there.
I’ve bought a bunch of stuff, but never anything important or particularly expensive. Random crap like LED strip lights, screws, bearings, and springs for 3D printing projects, or even filaments. Never had any issues, but I’d still be apprehensive buying something more expensive.
And because resources are finite, all else isn’t held equal. You’re giving up time spent working on gameplay or whatever to stick fancier graphic assets in.
That’s not how game design works. The people who work on the gameplay and level design and dialog are not the same people who work on the graphics. Sure, making the game prettier takes more time, but it has no effect on how long the rest of the game takes to be built. And lower-quality assets can be used in the interim for things like scripting animations, with higher quality assets swapped in later.
I agree, and I think they should have been free to do what they wanted back then too.
The concept behind short-term multiplayer in a long game is pretty cool. The invasions and the jolly cooperation are fun features.
But an actual 2-player session is a completely different experience, and something a lot of people are looking for
“I regret using Dolly as the example for the point I was making in the article,” she told Yahoo! Entertainment Saturday. “As I wrote in the piece, I love her and think she does some incredible things for the world. We all make poor choices in how to frame things sometimes. This was one of those moments for me! Dolly is one of the few people who is beloved by all and who loves all. The world is lucky to have her.”
You don’t get to pretend that it was an error in framing your message. You meant what you said and the only thing you regret is the backlash. You picked on an angel and everyone else rightfully gave you shit for it.
People are fucking stupid.
Many of those words aren’t actually limited to those use cases, but they are used there because they have very specific meanings. A plaintiff, for example, is the person lodging a complaint. Doesn’t have to be a legal complaint, but in legal terms it makes it very clear who we’re talking about.
Others are just expressions. A snap election is just when you call an election earlier than the scheduled one. It’s essentially a nickname for something more complicated. Same goes with casting a ballot. It just means to toss your vote in for the count. It’s just the expression that stuck because it sounds fancier than just saying “voting.”
