Well this is a first for me. The two planets really do overlap, and physics get really funky at the interface.

It's also common that the objective of the acquisition isn't really to operate the smaller company on its existing trajectory as much as it is to bring technology, IP, employees, customers, or other resources that can be integrated into the mothership. A friend of mine founded a company that was...

There's some definite wonkiness to some of the sounds. The "Death Metal" is pretty much just pitched noise with a drum backing. My wife (runs an AI/data science department and is a serious violinist) has played with it some and says it's awful for classical music. No doubt it will improve, though.

Get your kids a Thomas the Trolley Problem playset!

Edit: Oops wrong thread @Amod please delete.

Terraria is great. Think 2d Minecraft with deeper crafting and a heavy focus on platforming combat.

The probe is shielded. And it's not so much about being powered up as the total voltage/current experienced by the circuit, which is probably larger if the device is on during the event where more is induced. For example, if a big enough coronal mass ejection hit Earth, the electric grid...

You're coming in a little harsh, dude. While he did contribute to the situation through failure to set boundaries he's already said he's going to consult a lawyer.

Definitely. Had you been married and divorced, the court might place limitations on the distance, timing, and circumstances of any move that would change your ability to spend time with your daughter. You'll need to get prepared on the legal side of things since the courts haven't been involved...

Ahh. That makes it more complicated. You'll have to run the risk/reward analysis on what it'll do to your future relationship and how much that's worth to you financially. Personally, I'd have drawn the line a while back.

I think you've let things go more than long enough. Let her take her shit and gtfo. If she wanted lasting value from the paint she shouldn't have put it in someone else's house.

tldw; DLSS 3.5 is giving major framerate increase (up to 3-5x) by generating 7 of every 8 pixels with neural AI instead of traditional rendering methods.

Supplements are like medicines before 1900. If it seems to work it's probably full of drugs. USADA recommends only using tested and certified supplements for exactly this reason.

4% of revenue? What are margins like in the gaming industry? I couldn't find any good stats beyond most indie studios not making any money. I can easily imagine 4% of revenue being 50-100% of profits. That's still crazy.

I've never put any chemicals in my lawns (MA, GA, CA). Just water and mow. They're not perfect, but they're green and look uniform from more than 10 ft away. Is all the extra work chasing the last 10%?

Agreed, it just depends on the personal dynamics with his mom. She could easily get offended at the implication the new boyfriend was out for money, or honestly want to provide for him should she predecease. I suspect she already feels weird about the relationship given the previous lack of...

Trust are just good for estate planning anyway and can help avoid estate taxes. This could be a non-confrontational angle for @TJT to open up the conversation with his mom. It's not going to be useful in this case, but anyone married with assets should look into setting up an AB Trust. It can...

Tricky situation. Absent a trust and/or prenup set up in advance the new guy could very easily end up holding assets should they marry or qualify for common law. You're going to need to have some uncomfortable conversations ASAP. My dad remarried after my mom died, and fortunately he and his...

Currently at the ER with my wife who has appendicitis. Fun times!

Daddy long legs have no venom at all. They're not even spiders.

Odds are much higher that the C-Suite is just cashing out knowing that the company is in general trouble (they've already had mass layoffs and office closures this year). This doesn't make sense as a stock manipulation scheme.

Just get the rocket boots and run away for a few seconds, teleport, or get on your ship and land on the station or anomaly.

I sympathize with the devs, but as a consumer I have to wonder if the death of f2p crapware wouldn't be a big improvement.

IMO that doesn't say anything other than confirm Unity has no clue what they're doing and their CEO is willing to torch their customer base.

Rofl they don't even know how to count installs yet? This smells very badly of "CEO said we had to make this announcement or we're fired. Staff currently on suicide watch."

Charities are excluded per the FAQ (possibly updated since you posted that). Of course, how will they know what was sold via charity and what wasn't? What about returns or refunds? They can't even give a straight answer as to how they will handle piracy. "Just trust us bro our AI is good."...

Dana doesn't give a shit about anything except money and getting his own way. Yeah, he's reading the room and playing down the rematch now but I guarantee before he was just talking about it because he thought maybe that's what people wanted to see.

Someone needs to tell France about non-ionizing radiation. Edit: Also, it seems like the iphone 12's absorption rating spec is less than half the limit allowed in France? The reporting sucks around this story.

It very much depends. The last place I rented I didn't have an increase in eight years because we were great tenants and the entire rent payment was less than the interest portion of a mortgage on the property would have been had I tried to buy it. The point was most people don't include...

Fucking bonkers technicality. Watch through the first minute at least for the transition to three sticks.

You have to include return on equity, which you should be otherwise investing if renting, not just the total monthly payment. If you're renting your benchmark for comparability should be against the interest payment portion of the mortgage plus your expectations for maintenance and taxes and all...

It may be possible to get small positive returns from real estate over short time periods, but the opportunity cost is significant. Over the last 30 years the average return from real estate is 5.3% vs 9.6% from the S&P. Couple that with 6% transaction costs every time you exchange, and high...

I sprained my jaw this morning by sleeping with my mouth open.

That seems low by quite a lot. HVAC vendors don't even list single units that can cool a 5600 square foot house. I have a 4-ton for a 2200 sq ft place (Zone 2). https://hvacdirect.com/sizing-air-conditioner-and-heater.html

I live in CA and have shit-tier electric rates, on par with New England and better only than Hawaii and Alaska. My bill only approaches $400 in July when the AC is on 24/7 and it's 95-100 every day, and I'm cooling a 2200 sq ft house with bad insulation (I'm fixing that). $400 in IL is bananas...

$400/mo electricity in the winter? Are you running a crypto farm or something? I would in no way advise you to encourage your AC to irreparably break.

Just be glad we're not Canada?
