Has this type of attack been done with other game engines?


It's a pretty common convention, at least it's used a lot in my domains of interest. What do you not like about it?


I mean pretty much every domain really. In what field do you not replace them? Knitting?


I'm also running an AMD Lenovo (Gen 3 T14) but can assure you there are still hardware support issues. The issues are rare, but there none the less. WiFi will occasionally be slow after resuming from sleep, the fingerprint reader will just stop working after a while (but can be recovered by restarting the USB device with a script), plugging in a USB3 monitor previously crashed my system but I think that was fixed in the recent kernel updates, and early on when I first got the laptop I had system resume issues. Last year I had bug regression break something, I think ethernet, was another month before that got re-fixed. I did buy it when it first hit the market so I wasn't surprised to have issues.


I've been on T14 Gen 3 and E14 Gen 3 for quite some time and hadn't had a single issue you describing. Even running a UHD screen through Type-C and using fingerprint to authorize after powerdown (a thing MacOS and Windows can't really do). Care to share what distro and kernel you are using?


Are you on the AMD T14 Gen 3 or Intel? I've read the Intel ones are a bit better supported. I'm running Pop! OS with 6.6 kernel. Here's one of the bugs that affected me previously: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=214649 What are you running to have never had an issue?


> doing nothing is letting yourself drift along in your environment in the moment without a purpose.

I particularly like this definition. Moments like those I enjoy a lot.


I recently was looking at this for my partner. The best two options I've seen so far is the Withings ScanWatch (actually the ScanWatch 2 I think was recently released) and the Garmin Vivomove Trend. I don't have direct experience with them but from my research they seem decent. Of course they have limits compared to a full smartwatch.


I had a Withings for a couple years and ended up frustrated with it. The tiny screen meant that many notifications took so long to read I often just got my phone out instead. But the worst thing was the lack of a "find my phone" feature.

I switched to the Garmin Vivomove and have been very happy with it. It looks fantastic IMO, the transflective screen is big enough to be useful, and it has only the features I want. The only downsides are that the Garmin Android app is not as well designed as the Withings app and the battery life is only 4 days or so instead of a week, which feels like an awkward amount of time.


I much prefer the approach of applying emphasis, be it italics, bold, all-caps etc, on top of plain text. To me this is the most versatile approach and I think is better for accessibility.

A sentence with italics or any other emphasis should read exactly the same without that emphasis. Where the same isn't true of capitalisation.


> A sentence with italics or any other emphasis should read exactly the same without that emphasis.

Not true. In conventional English, it is typical (if not expected) to add verbal emphasis to italicized words while reading aloud.


> A sentence with italics or any other emphasis should read exactly the same without that emphasis.

But it doesn't, that's the thing! The word you italicize can alter the meaning of a sentence. For instance:

> "I didn't steal Sally's necklace!"

> "I didn't steal Sally's necklace!"

> "I didn't steal Sally's necklace!"


As of this writing my parent comment is downvoted, so maybe the difference between the three sentences is less obvious than I thought. While all three sentences assert that I didn't steal Sally's necklace:

• The first version implies that I acquired Sally's necklace via other means.

• The second version implies that I stole someone else's necklace.

• The last version implies that I stole something else from Sally.


One of my favorites:

I didn’t say I took the money.

I didn’t say I took the money.

I didn’t say I took the money.

I didn’t say I took the money.

I didn’t say I took the money.

I didn’t say I took the money.


A good craftsman should also be capable of making and improving their own tools. A woodworker with a bad chisel simply reshapes it.

Relating back to software as tools, this only works if you have access to the tool code.


That only partially works.

There's a huge difference in steel quality among chisels/cutting tools. Anyone can sharpen a $2 chisel so it cuts nicely once, but a $50 chisel will hold its edge longer and cut nicely hundreds of times.

There's only so much maintenance you can do on a bad tool.


Maybe I'm being naive, but doesn't this add unnecessary noise to diffs, making it harder to see subtle changes?


it does not; the idea is not to insert extra space characters into files, but to display tab characters as a quantity of whitespace sufficient to visually align columns vertically


It's better in that you have no ads. But if anything it feels like a side step or backwards step in terms of usability.

There are three things driving me mad at the moment. One, despite having my audio muted I still get audible notifications for something, haven't figured it out. Two, volume control no longer works with my Jabra bluetooth earphones. Third, no amount of trying to convince Windows Explorer otherwise can I stop my downloads folder and it's sub-folders from going back to being grouped by date, which I hate.


I love Linux and despise $MS in general. VS Code is the only thing from them I genuinely enjoy using. Since most of it is open source I have some confidence it will escape the usual $MS enshitification, or at least VS Codium. There's just not anything I've come across that's as versatile.
