Intercept isn’t the right word, but what they are doing is shady. The Bing search result for “Google” has results pushed down until they are nearly off the screen. They place what looks like a Google doodle (exploiting the fact that Google replaces their logo all the time) and a search box in the middle of the screen. It tricks the inattentive user into thinking it did what they meant for it to do, while still keeping them in Bingland.
They all focus on letting anyone run fast, which just makes them feel like autopilot.
Haste lets you run fast and actually gives the player control. It’s what a 3D Sonic should be.
The new law basically says “We don’t care where the user appears to be from, you have to assume they are from Utah”. Blocking Utah doesn’t help.
He wasn’t tricked into kneecapping her campaign. Her campaign was being kneecapped by ratfuckery and he was trying to soften it.
Republicans handed something to the FBI that would force them to reopen the case, knowing that it wouldn’t show anything new, just so that they could then wail about the FBI keeping it quiet to help Clinton.
I have the Libra 2 and love it. Nice thumb rail with page-turning buttons. Doesn’t need jailbreaking to install KOReader or do whatever else I want.
Both Mistborn ages are really tight, making them easy reads. Intriguing magic, moving story, great characters.
Stormlight has all the same elements, but it lets every character have their own storyline. It’s sprawling. It lets you see more sides of it.
Earthsea is beautiful. There aren’t very many books, and they were written across 50ish years. They evolved with the genre, allowing readers a clear window into how we got to the modern works of Jordan, Sanderson, etc.
Jr High teacher, so they’d be a few years past being her students. Age gap is problematic, but I don’t see any school-related abuse of power there.
Lighting is the space image gen struggles in most now. Individual areas will show convincing shadows, atmosphere, etc, but motivation and consistency is lacking. The shots from Hogwarts Legacy show that really clearly. Slice out a random 10%x10% chunk of the frame and the lighting looks more realistic, but the overall frame loses the directional lighting driven by real things in the scene.
I haven’t used RCN/Astound since COVID, but they were pretty decent before then. Far better than Comcast.
if it was perfectly crisped, you wouldn’t be able to fold it in half.
NYC-style pizza has one thing going for it: it’s genuine fast food. It’s on par with other fast food.
