The wisdom of crowds only works when the inputs are independent.
People are meaningfully biased to conform to group opinions.
Probably a bucket hat to keep the sun out of my face while reading in the backyard.
Is it really unreasonable to explain that nothing you do on a work computer is private, though?
Obviously you don’t want to do any of that. But if you have a reasonable set up, you can when you need to, and telling people not to do shit they shouldn’t on company hardware is a good thing.
I’m not downvoting, but the fact that kernel malware games don’t work is a feature to me. It would be a full time job to keep from installing anything that demands obscene access for no legitimate reason on Windows. “It doesn’t work” is way easier.
Pretty much everything else on Steam works without effort.
There have been games that showed hints of stuff you could get to, but I think BOTW was the first major open world game that actually universally followed that rule and didn’t have invisible walls all over the place.
Like Skyrim there was a lot you could “climb” by abusing the mechanics and spamming jumps until you got lucky, and everything existed in that sense. But it was glitches, not part of the mechanics. BOTW having points of interest almost entirely discovered visually was unique.
I would say the defining characteristic that sets Breath of the Wild apart from its contemporaries is its “chemistry engine”, as they call it.
It’s traversal. The interactions were cool, but mostly about the puzzles.
What BOTW changed was how exploration works. You see a landmark in the distance, start moving towards it, and figure out how to get there. There’s nothing you see that isn’t part of the traversal system. There are no invisible walls. Some things are absurdly high to climb, some things are slippery, etc, but everything you struggle to traverse is clearly a product of the systems the game uses and makes sense.
(The problem was none of that exploration got you anywhere interesting, but the core element of “everything you see is a destination” is the thing about BOTW that was groundbreaking.)
Because freedom.
Windows is one OS, with limited ability to customize. Mac is one OS, with limited ability to customize.
Linux, as a core concept, is hundreds of OSes that anyone can customize any of, at will, to meet their requirements. Different versions of Linux diverge because different people/projects want different things.

The entire thing is completely off topic and doesn’t even sort of make any point you tried to make anywhere in the thread.
Play isn’t relevant in any way to the discussion.
You understand the difference between fiction and pretending fiction is reality?
They’ve been full on unstable nonsense since the day Ryzen dropped.
They immediately started playing games with their metric to make Intel win.
Prosecutors don’t write the law, and prosecutorial discretion is only actually meaningful when circumstances are unusual.
She didn’t have an option to just not do drug charges.
To be fair, people having ideas for features is a valuable contribution in its own right.
Entitlement to them, not so much. But feature suggestions have value even if many of them aren’t practical and many more never get added.
Even video has come a long way.
It isn’t actually good, but you can tell what’s happening.
I desperately wish someone had explained to me why putting the work in mattered.
I never tried, because I could get the grades without it.
Now I still don’t really have the habits the “busy work” are supposed to teach you.
This is literally the first time I’ve ever heard mashed potato be singular. My phone even tried to make it plural.
You pretty clearly don’t know what a call to action is, or an ad is, because “please give money” is very obviously a call to action, and many ads make no effort whatsoever to sell any product.
Yes. It is literally impossible for an organization asking for money not to be an ad.
And yes, showing me a single ad once means I never give them money again. I am not OK with ads.
Because a well done, complete code project benefits more from continued small additions than a well constructed, complete story.
