It is - without the quiet zone, it makes detecting the locator pattern really difficult, especially in one’s looking for the 1:1:3:1:1 ratio.

In the Adam singularity, naturally!

Aye. Granted, I’m on Dynamis so my experience is going to be wildly different from, eg. Aether, but I’ve only had one occasion of long queues, and that was when Aether died. And even then, it was steady progress, unlike the Login Roulette of Endwalker.

I’ve been playing Heart of the Machine, and really enjoying it. It’s a fascinating 4x ish in a future city, in a bit of an inversion of AI Wars (same developer). Before playing, I was merely intrigued, but now I’m excitedly awaiting where it goes. It was, however, initially difficult to figure out what to do. Perhaps more UX is going to be useful here.

You get a tactical nuke, you get one, you get one… tactical nukes for all!

I’m confused as to your meaning here. Current codecs are miles ahead of what we had in the past. Unless you mean typical resolution (eg. 4k, 8k, etc).

For the purposes of OPs problem (P v NP), it considers not particular solutions, but general algorithmic approaches. Thus, we consider things as either Hard (exponential time, by size of input), or Easy (only polynomial time, by size of input).

A number of important problems fall into this general class of Hard problems: Sudoku, Traveling Salesman, Bin Packing, etc. These all have initial setups where solving them takes exponential time.

On the other hand, as an example of an easy problem, consider sorting a list of numbers. It’s really easy to determine if a lost is sorted, and it’s always relatively fast/easy to sort the list, no matter what setup it had initially.

The Italian game just oozed style. Really fascinating imagery.

I’m on the last continent for Unicorn Overlord right now, and the gameplay is real fun to try and optimize. The story’s dirt simple, but I’m fine with the occasional simple narrative game. I should have probably chosen a more difficult setting though - normal’s not really presented a real challenge yet.

Also, watching Francis John play Subnautica blind made me do another playthrough of that game. Now I’ve got bases setup all over the place.

I absolutely love the writing that Frost puts out in the Cold Take series. They’re always filled with turns of phrases that make me think: “that’s actually a hell of an interesting way of thinking about that.”

Man, I played the bejeezus out of this game back in the day. I should probably set how Sins 2 is coming along.

An absolute classic that I watch every single time. Kamelåså!

Can’t wait, only a few more days! Falconer hoooooo!

Holy moly, you weren’t kidding! It’s uncanny.

I still contend that the climax of Shadowbringers is one of my favourite and most meaningful gaming experiences. Enjoy the ride!

Slowly working my way up to harder difficulties in Against The Storm. Up to Prestige 6 now. Really nice difficulty curve.

Also got and finished Chants of Sennaar, and loved it! I’d really love a hard mode dlc without the journal some time, for a new language. I still need to finish Heavens Vault.

I’m pretty darn sure that houses are only for number tracking purposes. You can have them anywhere in the radius of the hearth and they’ll function the same. Similar to decorations that way, in functionality.

I’ve spent far too much time playing Against The Storm, and I’m positively in love. Every game is basically ~70 minutes of “can I make this build work.” The difficulty escalation is great and I easily see myself spending dozens more hours with it. A+ game.

You’ve just made an enemy for life!
