I thought about mentioning that, but sometimes one of the buttons in Fallout do lead to extra dialogue. Couldn’t figure out how to put the difference into words. But I feel like I’m wasting my time when I try to get extra dialogue out of a Fallout 4 npc.
The Bioware games have always made me skeptical of the argument that voiced dialogue is what made Fallout 4 choices so bland. The choices they made after deciding to go with a voiced protagonist is what made it bland.
The choices in Fallout 4 are like if the designer had just heard in passing that games like Mass Effect had a choice wheel. The only detail they successfully copied was not having the dialogue always match the option you chose. Bioware games gave you more options (6 in this screenshot of Mass Effect I’m looking at), wasn’t as clunky to use, and the options weren’t as transparently meaningless.
If the APIs are meant for public consumption, requiring feature parity makes a lot of sense. But when it’s for internal use by your own developers, waiting means you are making a bunch of new API endpoints no one will ever use. People will write more and more code using the older endpoints and those endpoints will start getting changes that your new ones will need ported over.
I think if you are going to force people to use new endpoints, you’ll need them to either write the endpoints themselves or have a team member who can write it for them and account for this while planning. If getting a new endpoint requires putting in a JIRA ticket with a separate backend team, 4 planning meetings, and a month wait, people are just going to stick with what currently exists.
It was basically the same thing. In the code base, there was only v3 and v4. I never bothered to check what happened to v1 and v2, but I suspect they were used in an older, archived code base.
In my experience, having to write new v2 (or in my case v4) endpoints for most new features was expected.
The 21 year old is a separate person.
In the US, people consider any public sector job to be working in/for the government. Judges, Legislators, the president, TSA security, Park Rangers, Cops, Clerks at the driver’s license office, etc. would all be considered government roles. Sometimes you need to clarify if you mean federal government or state government.
The president, his staff, and his political appointees are called the administration.
I imagine the people who actually think about how they are working just for basic needs are mostly a different group of people than those yelling about freedom.
I don’t know how many conservatives wake up in the morning with the feeling that everything they do is just to make some rich guy richer until they eventually die. Because why would they be a conservative at that point?
It’s not that your nose can’t taste very much. It’s like the other three, eating a nose won’t taste very good.
You’re supposed to get to the nose and think about how it definitely wouldn’t taste good. Then you think about how it doesn’t really smell that much better than you imagine it would taste. And then you go “Ahh. Smells! My nose is good at smelling!” and then die laughing at the hilarity of the wordplay.
I was just using the term that the previous commenter used to keep terms consistent.
To add on to this, the 5000 series now generates 3 fake frames per real frame instead of just 1.
It’s not something you would be able to rely on all the time. Security cameras that use IR to see in the dark could be blinded by IR LEDs, but cameras can also have IR filters.
UHD means 4k Ultra HD and it is a type of Blu-ray that is not backwards compatible with older Blu-ray drives.
I think people are mixing up copyright up with what Sony does with Spider-Man due to licensing terms. Like not only does copyright last damn near forever, you don’t need to keep releasing stuff to renew it and it doesn’t just go away because you aren’t using it.
There’s also a lot of confusion with trademarks. People will often defend big corporations threatening fan art because they “have to defend it or lose their copyright”, which is a trademark thing and not copyright.
