Some geek thinks he should get license to copy another persons work. Just because.
Some greedy shit thinks some geek should need a licence to copy something that's existed for decades and already earned its creator quite enough money.
Nothing produced in my lifetime will ever enter the public domain before I die. Fuck getting a licence, it's becoming a civic obligation to disregard today's insane copyright laws.
Primarily because random noise is difficult to differentiate from actual image content.
Photograph the sky at night. Is that noise or a galaxy?
Wait a bit longer, count more photons hitting the sensor.. it's a galaxy. What if you don't want to wait? How do you get those extra photons?
Give them more sensor to hit. Larger pixels.
This is why larger sensors have lower noise in every sensor generation, and why you can't buy a full frame camera with the same pixel density as a mobile phone - scale the Samsung S9 sensor to full frame and you'd have a 229MP sensor. Better by far to stick at a quarter of that, get four times the light hitting each detector, get the superior low light performance and also make lenses affordable.
Perhaps you could have helped avoid confusion by mentioning that image capture can occur in two modes: Good light, at 48MP and less good light, at 12MP.
I'd still need to read more about the quad bayer array to properly understand how they're binning photons and computing pixel colour and intensity from that. To be fair sensors are something Sony do well.
Yeah, guessed you were messing. I just want a f/0.5 lens:) Also, diffraction is the term I've been trying to remember all evening, ta.
I'm too lazy to do much macro even with a macro lens. When the DoF is that fine you end up needing to focus stack and that's generally a pain in the arse.
You're assuming that each pixel is represented exclusively by four other pixels.
I can't be arsed reading up on it, but that does feel unnecessary. Each pixel can capture its own light, be informed by the four pixels surrounding it and also contribute information to those.
As for commercial viability, consumers like big numbers. 48 mega pixels sounds so much better than 12.
To be fair, the ability to focus within an inch and that narrow depth of field does offer some lovely photographic options.
Macro lenses can match the depth of field but not at that wide an angle.
But the pixel count and density aren't relevant to the depth of field. You could get lovely RAW images from a 16-20 megapixel sensor and give the lens far less work to do.
Still, create a lens that does f0.5 with any level of optical resolution and you'll be a rich hamste.
The ability of the lenses to provide a sharp image at that (actual) pixel density is going to need some serious optical design. The sort that usually costs more than the whole phone.
Why not just use the quad bayer array with fewer pixels and give mobile phones an actual low light capability for once.
Is this a physical indicator? I can't see the USB ports I attach devices to, they're behind a monitor. The cables are what I use. I don't look at the cable or device either.
If it's a software indicator it's even less useful. I don't have any software consistently open in which such an indicator could be displayed. If I want to guarantee write buffers are cleared I have to open a new window and find the 'eject' option.
I should really learn the console command for that. hmm. Ok, that's less straightforward than I'd hoped.
When I couldn't afford to eat out, I didn't eat out.
Then again my friends know who's not earning, who just had a snack and not three courses, who drank all the wine. We adjust, we don't need to discuss it, we don't dive through each item on the receipt.
We stop going out with people that do. Life's too short, fucking get on with it.
Sure they do. They provide a bill for X, you know Y people ate/stayed, you divide X by Y and just fucking get on with life.
In my experience the person eating the expensive steak voluntarily chucks a little extra in anyway, usually before the rest even find out the bill's total.
LPC was a great language, in that you could physically interact with your objects
I learned OO programming without even realising it because of LPC. Got into my first job post-university and my boss with his 30 years of programming experience couldn't understand how I could adapt so easily to the new OO languages we were using.
The best were "Wizard (admin) Duels", which was basically warfare between programmers.
I was winning one of those with ease, right up until my opponent used his unix mud account access to log into the OS and delete me.
Even then I'd created a copy of my admin.o file so waited five minutes, logged on and sent him some hugs.
That era was a great one for Warwick. I don't recall Cat Chat but the lpmud, Cheeseplant's House and then Sean and Geoff destroying peoples lives with Angband.
Ok, lets do this the hard way. Here are the things I stated, please tell me which of them is not true, and which of them is not fucking obvious to the murderers in the helicopter:
1 - people were lying bleeding and dying in the street 2 - unarmed people arrived 3 - the unarmed people attempted to provide assistance to the injured people 4 - the US military attacked those unarmed people 5 - you think that this is perfectly reasonable
I'll give you a hint: Number 5 is the only one that doesn't get the 'True' and 'Obvious' combination, and it still manages to get halfway there.
Did you even look at the ED control setup? ED has MUCH more complexity than Tie-Fighter.
ED keyboard commands: 34 in use during flight (not including pitch/yaw/shoot). Tie Fighter keyboard commands: 58 during flight (not including pitch/yaw/shoot).
To be fair, the Warthog HOTAS has enough controls that you almost certainly could map the whole Tie Fighter keyset to it and never need to touch the keyboard.
(Good luck remembering which function is on which button/toggle/switch/hat though)
Except that by focussing only on the availability of the sky for men it marginalises the role of women (and other genders) and perpetuates the patriarchical media focus on men.
Further, by interpreting this through its impact on men and disregarding the obvious and far greater implications for women you have demonstrated your own misogynist viewpoint and are complicit in the rape of feminist ideals, and thus feminists themselves.
Slashdot Mirror
Maybe I'm cynical but I suspect it's two-way traffic. Apple engineers going to iFixit and saying, "Oh, we should do that!"
To be fair that's because current mobile phones are more powerful than PCs and consoles were for around 80% of computer gaming history.

Sorry, where would this orange indicator be?

Going through a receipt line item by line item has fuck all to do with financial needs and everything to do with being an obnoxious twat.
We resolve our differences because we don't have to deal with obnoxious twats.
When I couldn't afford to eat out, I didn't eat out.
Then again my friends know who's not earning, who just had a snack and not three courses, who drank all the wine. We adjust, we don't need to discuss it, we don't dive through each item on the receipt.

What fucking RPGs? The cameraman had a camera.
Whatever happened to 'Confirm the target before murdering it'? Or were the US orders on the day to shoot journalists and civilians?
not all restaurants or hotels etc make that easy
Sure they do. They provide a bill for X, you know Y people ate/stayed, you divide X by Y and just fucking get on with life.
In my experience the person eating the expensive steak voluntarily chucks a little extra in anyway, usually before the rest even find out the bill's total.
accessibility and user friendliness matter Which is why ED has sold over 2.75 million copies.
Gameplay is king. Which is why Tie Fighter is in the top ten of almost every 'Best computer games ever' list.
300 hours of video is uploaded to Youtube every minute, fuck trying to watch it all.
That article explicitly states that Cuphead is whitewashing history. You may not find that an accusation of racism; I do.
Maybe you'd prefer
in some cases, feeding the racism that is foundational to the art style itself

I'm curious, on what are you basing your differentiation between the UK and non-UK gamer responses to the game?
I've seen nothing that would indicate a locality based difference in opinion regarding the game.
Keyboard alone hasn't been default input since mid 1990's
Mid '80s really, especially if you include non-x86 PCs.

Whether you're going to get them or not doesn't invalidate his point: They're not warranted.
Unless you think they are?
Except that by focussing only on the availability of the sky for men it marginalises the role of women (and other genders) and perpetuates the patriarchical media focus on men.
Further, by interpreting this through its impact on men and disregarding the obvious and far greater implications for women you have demonstrated your own misogynist viewpoint and are complicit in the rape of feminist ideals, and thus feminists themselves.
Ergo, you're a rapist.
