I frequently had to test other developer’s code, the fucking amount of times I heard that shit.
“Your code ain’t working”
“It’s working for me”
“Well it isn’t working for me, did you actually test it”
“Yes”
“On anything else than your own PC?”
“It was working fine for me”
“It fucking isn’t, look!”
“…huh”
For fuck sake just take like 1 minute to press on a frikking button to see if it actually does work.
Glad I’m not doing that shit anymore.
I did get multiple profiles, but it was still missing features that make it more accessible to work with like it does in Chrome.
It’s almost there, it just lacks a bunch of definite features that would streamline it and integrate it better into the UI.
I might start using Firefox once it has proper multi-account/profile features like Chrome.
I recently tried it but it’s such a hassle to set up and switch between them.
Man, I had recently spent a lot of time designing advertisement stuff around an established brand identity, that was pretty much going for a classy/luxury aesthetic. So I was basing all my designs around that identity. Made lots of variations, took many hours perfecting it.
Then was told they didn’t like it. They wanted something entirely different that “screamed” budget and flashy colors and shapes.
Got it just perfect on the second attempt after being briefed properly, but it did really hurt when my first attempt was shot down so easily.
It’s often weird how people don’t notice it much when you turn a setting on or off. But then I usually whip out the UFO site and they’re immediately convinced (it’s also easier to explain).
I have to say that on the PS5 the framerate differences have been quite noticeable. Especially first-party titles that support performance mode to go up to 60+ FPS instead of a usually locked 30, like in God of War and Horizon games.
I believe 24Hz works in movies because the way cinemas are set up. The image projected onto canvas in a dark/dim room “burn” in (not sure what the correct term is) which can make it appear smoother. This is why they can get away with it in cinemas. Plus it’s also a consistent 24Hz, which in games (and Way of Water) isn’t.
People used this excuse for games, to make games more “cinematic”, but that was just an absolute horseshit excuse for games being poorly optimised. Especially if the framerate wasn’t locked to 24FPS, and because home monitors and TVs don’t work the same as cinema projectors.
I’m sure if all cinemas and media would move to a higher framerate/Hz it would eventually just feel normal though. It just often takes a lot of time getting used to, especially for cinema experiences.
I could never tell if people who were claiming not seeing more than the 24 Hz/FPS thing were serious or just excusing poor game optimization. They were either fanboys defending a poor job of a product, or simply had terrible eyes. But I think even with the latter you’d still be able to tell the difference in smoothness.
It’s one of those things that once you experience a higher framerate in games it’s very hard to go back to a lower setting.
I find it hard to get used to in movies/shows though. My TV has an option to insert frames for smoother playback to make it appear a higher Hz, but it often looks unnatural. It was hard getting used to The Hobbit movie (I think it was Desolation of Smaug) that was in 48 FPS. And Avatar: Way of Water was constantly switching between lower and higher frames for regular and action scenes, it was such a jarring experience.
People celebrating and encouraging this shit are disgusting human beings.
I bet fans of these people are getting quite annoyed by people making these memes lol
Surely must go both ways.
Nah it’s a long way from dying, I doubt it will ever go under in the foreseeable future anyway.
People are constantly announcing their departures from X and make a whole show about it. Only to come back after a couple of days or weeks.
