What did you learn today? ?

[bjork]

Sometimes you gotta force it. Something small like a banana at least, just to get you going

 

[Yousef Yousef]

That’s really true.

That staying up to 5am to finish GTA 4 and then waking up at 2pm probably isn’t a good idea…

It’s ok so long it’s gta 4.
Today I learned you can still feel a game is a ten/ten even if the flaws it has makes it closer to a 6/10 (hundred line defense academy)

I learn today that Tee is very good.

Today I learnt that my laptop will take 5 times longer to boot if the CMOS battery is dead.

And that I cannot find this specific CR2032 (which is wired differently from the usual DELL and ACER batteries) part new anywhere on the usual webstores. Gosh darn Clevo gaming laptop argh.

I also learnt that Cloudflare security used on websites syncs with the time on your computer. If it's wrong it won't pass the security check. Also also that I have to manually restart windows time services since sometimes it just plain won't start. God this operating system and hardware brought to its knees from a single button cell wtf.

Well, you should always have an umbrella with you, otherwise you'll get wet.

 

[Mr. SyS]

This exists.

 

[GuyZero32k4]

Ok, first,

I learned today how far VR has come today. Though I'd need a a lot better PC. For science!

 

[Danieru-Emanyueru]

I learned nothing today. Well, okay, you don't learn something new every day.

 

[Mr. SyS]

This also exists and it feels like every 90's and 00's developer had it. Try to find a sample your favorite game uses!

Spoiler

The "Headshot" map in Metroid Prime Hunters uses the "Head-Injury" sample. I found a 20 year old developer in-joke.

I used Delta Patcher for the first time to apply anti-blur & depth of field fix to Disaster Report PS2 since there are no built-in patches to PCSX2 itself, it really did a number on the eyes before without it, the results are awesome:

Sex toys are unregulated and some have harmful chemicals in them with the label “for novelty use only” to avoid liability.

 

[Heinzu]

Yes, I learned again today that you should never underestimate children when playing Street Fighter.

 

[Danieru-Emanyueru]
