As a family with 2 kids under 7, I can tell you that the fucking-each-other-over aspect is NOT very fun. 😆️ It’s the worst aspect of it for my kids, because everyone gets in each other’s way and you bump into each other and you can accidentally pick each other up and toss each other over edges and stuff.

Mario Wonder is a bit more forgiving with that because you can essentially pass through each other in the 2-D plane, but there you have the aspect of “waiting for each other”, otherwise you get ghostified. Also a source of emotional pain… 😭️

I don’t get that. The hands work independently from each other so it should be optimal on both sides independently as well. So if you play a lot of stick movement games you’d want sticks to be forward for the thumbs, but button-heavy games should have buttons forward instead of inwards. For me, I play Rocket League, so I want stick forward on right side, buttons forward on left side, like Xbox. But if I played a lot of shooters or similar, I’d probably want both sticks forward.

I know, but sometimes I’m going for an aesthetic.

Yay, eat shit, PirateSoftware!

I like your username.

If you only use source image and motion vectors as input, so you’re essentially predicting instead of interpolating, surely that introduces some type of stuttering now and then due to correction which will be necessary eventually? Or am I misunderstanding it?

I hate that the left stick and D pad have the PlayStation layout. Much more strenuous for the thumb.

I’m using the official Google Messages app on a Pixel 9 Pro. I’m still getting bullshit iOS responses from old-iPhone users. Very annoying.

Might be good!

I just didn’t become a software developer to generate output. I became a software developer to be a craftsman. To write the code is the fun. If that is taken away from me, I’m out.

If the entire software industry mandated AI, I would either create some kind of startup, or just reeducate myself into some other field, like landscaping or something. Because fuck AI.

Suuure let’s count it!

Out of a cannon.

Exactly. So they aren’t talking with the same protocol. TVs can turn themselves on, but PCs just don’t send the required signals. ✔️

You’re doing us a solid by posting your findings. You didn’t have to do that, but ya did. 🤝

That context though… Thanks for that!

CEC has been around for years. This is probably more an issue with the PC in question rather than the TV. TVs do an excellent job at turning themselves on when CEC is enabled. 👍

Thank you! I’m not super into anime so I had no clue. 🙏
