Somebody convince me I'm wrong.
There is no reason to display "100%" in your UI for more than a single second. Either show 99% and then finish, or show 100% only when you are ACTUALLY done and only show it for a little.
If you're still doing ANYTHING AT ALL don't say you're 100% complete. How is it still like this
Java has a lot of advantages, but that's a crazy statement. I feel like literally everyone complains about basic stuff like public static void main, over reliance on factories and OOP, and just how much code you need to generate for some basic stuff. I'm not a Java hater, but I am glad I don't have to use it anymore.
Yeah, we really don't notice all the bullshit our parents deal with when we're kids.
I have the complete opposite experience. Weed removes the guilt of not doing anything, but it usually leads to me doing nothing.
I enjoy weed occasionally because it turns off that hyper critical voice in my head, but it absolutely isn't a magic motivation medicine for most people.
After using pretty heavily last year and taking a break, I've realized that the overall effect is fairly negative, because it just makes me way too ok with doing nothing. Sometimes I need to do nothing and take a break, and it's great for helping me do that, but for me personally, it's a major negative when I'm doing it regularly.
Obviously your experience is different (as is everyone's a little) so feel free to try it, just keep in mind that it can get very easy to get addicted to that "mellow brain" feeling until you realize that all progress on all of your goals have stalled out because it's easy to just be high all afternoon and evening. There are lots of people who can be motivated and productive while high, but I think I've determined that I'm not one of them.
This is a really common experience for a ton of VR gamers. The thing I remember the most is how white text on a black background (usually my phone) made it seem like the text was really 3D and coming out at me. It fades away but I'm sure we're going to find out some interesting things about the brain from this phenomenon.
It's an awesome little device! You've got plenty of games to work through, but if you feel like trying a side loaded one, give my game Pogo Arc a try: https://thesambassador.itch.io/pogo-arc
It's not a full dedicated gaming console that you're spending hours and hours playing. It's a toy that's great for quick sessions and it's really fun to develop games for. It's very well made and the software is great.
It's not a fair comparison to existing handhelds. It's niche, and definitely not for everyone. Personally, I love it and think it's just a unique toy that's fun to show people. If you'd need to get X hours of gameplay to make it "worth" it to you, it probably isn't your style.
It's an enthusiast device. As a gamedev myself, it's super fun to make little games for, and then you can easily show your friends/family. The limitations and unique input (the crank) lead to some awesome and interesting games.
I don't really view it as a serious gaming device. It's great for 5-20 minute sessions but it is basically a toy. I think if you're interested in experimental indie games, it's a great little device that's absolutely worth it. It shouldn't be directly compared to a "normal" game console because, frankly, it isn't.
Jesus Christ, is Lemmy already at Reddit levels of not-reading-the-article and just assuming the worst? The comments used to be actually ok but here is almost everyone just making snarky comments that clearly didn't read the article and assuming that this is the only money that Biden has approved.
It literally says it's part of $50 billion earmarked for climate change related infrastructure.
Sure, complain that we spend way too much on military, but maybe you people should try and be better, examine your biases, and stop being part of the problem.
It works a bit better if you put a little bit of wood glue on the tip of each toothpick before driving it into the hole. Definitely a great trick!
