@lcom @Kirbytronic This seems like the most likely explanation. Considering how notorious the drift is on Joycons, I'd imagine Nintendo has the deadzone on the Switch set pretty high to compensate, whereas on PC they can default to a lower value because it's adjustable.

@ghosttie So I take it you didn't like Super Bomberman R and R2? Are there specific things you disliked about them, or is it just a vibes thing?

@pluralistic Oh, and let's not forget that they were really aggressive about forcing RTW on their employees while covid was still rampant. Which was a particularly bad look for a healthcare company.

@pluralistic I've known a lot of Epic employees over the years, which ultimately means I know a ton of former Epic employees.

Their MO is to hire recent college grads who don't have other work experience and throw enough money at them that they're afraid to say no to the hours they make them work. Their software is buried under decades of technical debt and is written in languages that no one else uses anymore. Burnout is very high.

@foone To be fair to the illustration you were responding to, a lot of '70s-era processors absolutely did look a lot like the one illustrated.

@jmechner Are you sure it isn't "longer" just because they have the credits for every language dub tacked onto the end of the streaming version? That's pretty common on streaming nowadays, and I'm not seeing any discussion of an extended version of The Matrix existing.

@zarfeblong Google has recognized typos for years, and everyone was fine with that. The problem is just that Google doesn't seem to give you the option to say "no, I actually meant what I typed" anymore.

Apple Intelligence in 15.1 just flagged a phishing email as “Priority” and moved it to the top of my Inbox. This seems… bad

@PurpleJillybeans MOD-style music is a lot more CPU-intensive, isn't it? With redbook audio the CD-ROM drive and sound card are doing all the heavy lifting, but with MOD on PC I'm pretty sure all the audio mixing is being done on the CPU.
