less “suspiciously close to fraud”, more “devs were already prepared for C&D before they began”. They knew they’d get takedown notices, as any well-known Nintendo fangame does, so they operated under that assumption, building in an update mechanism and whatnot. If you operate under the assumption that your resulting…

How is this one of the top speaker sets? We bought two sets of these a few years back. They sound like garbage compared to the Z-2300 they were designed to replace, distorting at a much lower volume and having ridiculously uneven frequency response and less clarity. The DE-15 connector on one set was also faulty,…

Ironically, the girl with the perfect manga face is cosplaying as one of the members of Babymetal.

I imagine it helps that 1080p is evenly divisible into 4K. And yeah, sometimes you do have to disable DPI scaling for some games, but it’s been pretty rare for me and is a minor inconvenience at most.

The thing is, you don’t have to run 100% of the time in your display’s native resolution. I have two 4K displays, but I play games in 1080p. Eventually I’ll upgrade my GPU to something that will be able to take full advantage of it in games, but for now, it gives me a sweet desktop environment and that was the whole…

You don’t always have to operate in 4K. I use two 4K displays side-by-side, and the overall experience of *working* as a developer and graphics guy in a 4K environment is awesome. Meanwhile, 1080p video looks just fine on them (it helps that 4K is a multiple of 1080p), and DOOM plays and looks great at 1080p. Sure, my…

I’m an avid airsofter, with a decent collection of airsoft rifles and handguns. We always say, the number one rule about transporting airsoft replicas is to always treat them like they were real goddamned weapons. That means, among other things, keeping them in cases until it’s safe to actually take them out, never…

As a developer...
I imagine being totally realistic with character options wasn’t really in the *initial* goals with PokeGo. The options are really limited for the moment, but that will likely change in time. They probably had their designers/animators focusing on the pokemon models/animation and only created the most…

ask and ye shall receive.

messed around in Roll20 for about five minutes, the interface seems cumbersome as hell.

Of course I can live without it. I’m not bitching or anything. Just expressing a desire and musing about the situation.

lost me at “buy a real smartphone”. We’re well aware of our low marketshare, but not even Pokémon Go is enough incentive to get me to willingly purchase and use an iPhone or Android phone.

Now if only they’d release a Windows Phone client. Their effort to shut down scrapers also broke PoGo-UWP, which is the only way we can even play the game. There are folks working on figuring out the new API mechanisms, and I’m sure that if they manage to crack it Niantic will just break it again in another couple…

I prefer authenticator apps. It means my phone doesn’t make a noise and doesn’t get a notification to clear. Sure, I have to do more or less the same amount of work either way, but somehow it’s just more satisfying when I do it myself than to have to be all like “ugh now I gotta clear the notification” and associate…

They can’t shut something down just because it violates their ToS. They can ban players using those services if it requires logging into a player account, but that’s it. Although technically, Nintendo can probably shut down those services if they’re using copyrighted artwork and such, but Niantic can’t do jack to them.

basically just the neighbor guy from Home Improvement. It’s not a big deal in and of itself; it’s just a ‘big deal’ because he’s spent the entire series masked.

then, uh... I guess my question should be directed to you?

What’s with the timing of this article? We’ve known about this registry edit for at least half a year, and the Anniversary Update is going to be here in just over a week. Why post about it now?
