It’s probably Lawson on the chopping block. Next year (assuming they want to do things the right way) they need someone with experience in the second seat to help with development and Tsunoda has more experience than Hadjar and Lawson combined. Lawson also bombed out of the RBR and he isn’t doing that much better in the RB, his future prospects look dim. If the rest of the season continues the same for Lawson there’s no reason to keep him for 2026.

Then again, this is RBR we’re talking about. They’re not known for making rational decisions when it comes to drivers.

Them: “we don’t set the price”.

You: “I’ll buy it if you set a lower price”.

So people don’t even read the headlines anymore?

I need to do another vertical factory playthrough. That playthrough was a bit of a blueprint headache because no vertical splitters. Imagine a 5x5 grid (7x7 would’ve made it easier but IMO we unlock it way too late in the game for it to be useful in that playthrough) getting 4 inputs coming up from the bottom, rotating them to become horizontal, then splitting them so half of the 4 inputs could go into the manufacturer and the other half positioned in a way that when they get rotated back into vertical their output would align with the input. It was a mess, I nearly gave up.

And when you got the blueprint ready it was really annoying to connect the blueprints so hopefully the auto-connect solves the other issue I had with vertical builds.

I was coming here to mention Dark Souls. It’s an excellent example of how to make a tutorial not feel like a tutorial. Either you take the time to understand what the game is telling you or not, up to you. Don’t care about going through the entire tutorial area? Just beat the boss and start the real adventure.

If you could add that it would definitely make my day because it’s my biggest gripe with the app. But it definitely should be an option so people who enjoy the current implementation could stick with that.

I also remembered another thing that’s a bit annoying. Sometimes I want to visit specific communities because they’re not popular enough to always pop up in my feed. I’m not sure how you sort the subscription list but it makes no sense to me. I ended up starring the handful of communities I specifically visit because finding them from my subscriptions list was just too much effort. I think it would make sense to have communities in an alphabetical order, first by community name and then by instance name. Not a big issue because I was able to filter out the specific communities I was looking for but still a bit annoying because I first need to find the community before starring it.

Beyond those two things you’ve done an excellent job with the app.

I don’t know if I’ve missed some configuration option, but I really don’t like how the current reply works and I would love it to work like it works on most Lemmy apps. You press reply and you get a new view where you only see the comment you want to reply to and then your own reply.

The issue I have with the current reply is that it’s just too small. It’s a third of my screen so not only do I not get a good overview of my reply I also have to scroll a lot just to proofread.

I don’t need to see all the other comments when I replying. Let me focus on the context of why I’m replying and what I’m replying.

Anyone who hasn’t seen taskmaster is in for a treat. It perfectly encapsulates how stupid we, as people, are and how ingenious we are, and mixed with a bit of “let’s just fuck with people”. The bit about Josh Widdicombe counting baked beans in a can brightens my day every time it pops into my mind.

Anyone looking for something similar to Taskmaster I’d recommend Game Changers. It has the same “let’s fuck with people” vibe.

I was watching Hasan being at the protests to get a sense of what is actually going on and a European left a comment on his video that succinctly put the US police into perspective.

As a European I don’t get how the police is just shooting rubber bullets instantly, why do they not have riot shields and water throwers and such, it seems so uncivilised.

And that pretty much sums up the cops in the US. They’re just uncivilized. Their idea of “deescalation” is escalation until you’re too incapacitated to fight back.

ELIS5 version. Wayland and Xorg are what draw the screen on your monitor. Xorg is based on stuff that’s 40 years old and Wayland is meant to replace Xorg as a more modern way to draw on your monitor.

Looks fine for me on interstellar.

Depends on how you define wiping the slate clean? Just for the users or also for the hardware and software vendors?

Because the difficulty of Linux comes from the lack of hardware and software support. If you just compare the OS then for the average user there little to no difference in terms of functionality. People probably would ever prefer Linux due to it being just generally faster than Windows. You wouldn’t pay extra to to get something that runs worse.

What people will pay extra for is the guarantee that their hardware and software just works. The only benefit Windows has is that you don’t have to worry if your hardware or software will work because in 99.9% of the time it does and if it doesn’t you can contact support and they won’t instantly tell you your system isn’t supported.

Didn’t need to read the article to come to the same conclusion.

TLDR: Unless Merc can pick up Verstappen Russell won’t be leaving Merc. Russell has no reason to go to another team because Merc is still one of the top teams and, unless Verstappen becomes available, there’re no reason to replace Russell because there’s nobody better to replace him with.

Same. I was willing to keep Outer Worlds 2 on my radar because I love Obsidian and they’ve earned my attention even though I didn’t particularly enjoy Outer Worlds 1, but at that price point the game has dropped off my radar. Unless it’s getting New Vegas level praise post launch I probably won’t be paying any more attention to this game.

I’m in no hurry. If it comes within a year I’ll be happy. If it takes longer I’ll probably check it out unless some other app has come out that I’m also happy with.

Strictly personal reason. When the lemmy devs asked for monetary donations I voiced my concern with Lemmy.ml, which they also maintain. In response one of the devs called me a cheapskate, so I decided I’m done with Lemmy until more normal people become maintainers

Edit: forgot to add that it wasn’t the only reason. The devs themselves are rather controversial in their beliefs and moderation and I had reluctantly tolerated thoss things up to that point. The dev interaction was simply the last drop in the bucket.

Hopefully voyager dev takes a look at piefed integration. I would absolutely love to get back to voyager but for me getting away from lemmy was more important than sticking to voyager.

Probably made more from every schmuck who didn’t know they would be replaced for free and bought extra.

I haven’t read the new TOS but if this review is correct it looks like a GDPR nightmare for them. Good luck to them explaining why they need to collect all that personal data.

You can skip some fights by running past enemies, but if you’re struggling with combat the best solution is to take some time to optimize your builds. The game incentivizes glass cannon builds where you generally kill mobs before they can even attack. If they can’t attack you don’t have to worry about dodging/partying. I won’t give any actual builds, those take too much effort and IMO it’s more fun to figure them out yourself. But I will give some tips to make combat easier.

If you have defensive pictos/lumina equipped swap them for damage or AP.

Don’t be scared to use color of lumina (for more lumina points) as you can get hundreds of them throughout the game. Trust me, having more lumina equipped will absolutely make the game easier

Also don’t be scared to use recoats to respec your characters, you can get plenty of recoats. Try out different skills as some of them are more useful than others.

If you’re struggling to strike first in combat equip first strike lumina on all characters. That lumina pretty much becomes mandatory in late game as even with all the speed modifiers stacked you still might not start first.

Also invest points into agility. Agility is the main stat for speed and speed dictates how often you can attack.
