Reddit 2023.
I understand that the game had a troubled launch, and that’s a super-relevant criticism of the game as it was when it came out. But the sky-high expectations fans put on CDPR are largely self-inflicted. It’s not like this is the first game with questionable marketing decisions or pre-rendered trailers selling a fantasy the game never comes close to fulfilling.
If you just go “Hey, a CDPR game set in a cyberpunk future, let’s check it out,” it’s by and large a fantastic game.
Montreal was pretty insane yesterday. The air pollution was barely tolerable, yet everyone who was outside was acting like nothing was going on. Some people would sit on terraces and some bars had their windows open wide. That was pretty wild.
The game controller thing gets meme’d to death, but I don’t think people focus on the right thing.
Xbox controllers are also used by the US Navy, among other branches of the military.
These are GOOD pieces of engineering, and they’re tested by millions of users under pretty strenuous conditions. However, the controller the Oceangate was using was some shitty-ass third-party controller that you can get for peanuts off Amazon.
THAT, IMO, is the issue that this piece of equipment illustrates. A solid Xbox Series S controller is $60 on Amazon, and you’re telling me you had to go for cheaper?
I should have specified I don’t bring it to a full boil. I turn down the heat just when it starts to boil.
Not claiming my method is better than yours! Your method actually sounds quicker, which is a good argument for it.
This is the Way.
I do it slightly differently… Learned to do it in Korea. But the differences in my approach are just a matter of how you time things. I bring to a boil uncovered, then cover and leave it on low for 25 mins, then 10 mins off the heat.
The gist of the method is not so much to boil the rice, but to let it steam in its own heat. That’s how you get soft yet consistent grains of rice.
With a bit of practice, you get perfect rice every time, and it’s barely more work than a rice cooker! The only things that a rice cooker add is stuff like timing the cooking for you, the ability to set a timer, and the ability to keep the rice warm once it’s cooked. (Which, granted, are pretty useful.)
Radial symmetry. Four different positions you can put the screwdriver and it works. More than that and the material might be less sturdy, plus this is easy to manufacture.
Honestly, the concept of a screw you can screw in using a cross-shaped tool sounds pretty universal. Not surprised it would be infected elsewhere in the universe.
Yeah, that’s my setup as well. Tech-savvy people tend to have an all-or-nothing attitude to security, but at the end of the day, as soon as you take some extra precautions like using a keygen or activating 2FA, you’re already taking yourself out of the massive pool of targets of opportunity that hackers go for.
Get ready for the blame game, because as climate change intensifies, that’s gonna happen over and over again. We’re leaving the “this may be real but is it man-made?” phase and entering the “okay, but it wasn’t MY fault” phase.
