DaleGribble88 , to Game Development in Anyone interested in a book club?

That's super cool of you to share your notes with the world like that!

DaleGribble88 , to Game Development in Anyone interested in a book club?

Hey, @zaphodb2002, how is the book coming along? Also, and would you care to post part of your reading list?

DaleGribble88 , to Game Development in Anyone interested in a book club?

I'm game.
I'm currently reading "Don't Make Me Think: Revised Edition" by Steve Krug. The book is primarily about website design, but anyone with half a brain could translate the design principles and main ideas into a game development context. I just finished Chapter 10(?) all about designing usability tests and how to get a feel for where the main issues are with your design.
After that, I've got "Design is Storytelling" by Ellen Lupton and "The Animator's Survival Kit" by Richard Williams queued up.

In regards to the known bug with the mouse, you can press "e" on the keyboard to shoot.

DaleGribble88 , to Memes in "Cancel Culture"

Ok, you are entitled to your opinion, but the claim was that Christian churches and Christian church goers weren't being targeted or "demonized," which I've shown is false. Both with an example from yesterday morning, and an aggregate data set which shows some level of significance. Now, whether you want to argue if it is deserved, or proportional, or whatever else is up to you and your morals. However, the original claim that Christians are not the target of harassment because of their religious affiliation is simply not true.

I thought that the article being from this morning would say enough, but I mean... https://www.christianpost.com/news/436-acts-of-hostility-against-us-churches-documented-in-2023.html

DaleGribble88 OP , to Technology in Roku TV bricked until agreeing to new terms of service

Sceptre seems to be a popular brand mentioned in this thread. Thanks for the input!

I don't think that you fully understand what the word "prefer" means. I said that I don't want to give up access to my third-party apps if possible, not that I would never consider a factory reset.
It might help to grab a dictionary before you start policing the internet from your porn account.

Thanks!

"I wish my cancer riddled grandmother wasn't suffering."

"Well, you could always just kill her! Then she would feel anything!"

???

Even more so, I didn't even disagree or say that they were wrong. Just that I'd prefer not to do that because, along with my grandmother not suffering, I also want her to be alive. Contrary to popular belief, humans are capable of wanting multiple things at the same time. Have you ever been thirsty while you had to pee?

Oh, I am definitely getting more paranoid as I get older, but that's a different issue altogether. :D

Scrapyard PCs for the win!

IANAL either, but I'm pretty sure you are correct. I put it in another comment somewhere, but I'm more upset about not being given a choice to refuse the change rather than the actual change itself. I don't mind signing the waiver at amusement parks, or to buy a car with no warranty. I just want to know what I'm agreeing to, and I don't like folks pulling the rug out from under me or changing the deal.

The situation feels like if I were to drop out of college, I would be given electroshocks until I'd forgotten anything learned in class.

How on earth is saying "I would prefer not to do something" being unreasonable with people?
