Graphics, as in graphical fidelity, polygon count, etc. are valueless to me.

Art style is everything. I don’t care if I can see the pixels in the game, I still play the same SNES my family had 25 years ago. The game has to look good, and graphical fidelity is a tool to help achieve that, but it’s only a tool, and useless without the appropriate art direction.

The part between the corners of the image. It’s white and has grey and green blobs on it. You can’t miss it.

For real. Just because Putin is a Bond villain doesn’t make every citizen of Russia one of his goons.

For SSD’s, it’s 100% a logical table, because data is stored all over the place for load balancing purposes, so it already uses a logical table to keep track of what each block is for at any given point in time.

For HDD’s, historically they were physically separated, and they mostly are still, but there’s still a logical table, and there’s no reason the logical table can’t say “Blocks 0 through 1234 and 2000 are part of partition 1” if you have something somewhere else that you want on that partition.

I think the idea comes from “HDD slow,” as he was impressed with the speed it was happening at, especially if you think of it as requiring data to be moved around on the disk. It’s not really intuitive to think of it as just a table on the disk somewhere that says which regions belong to which partition, and having those regions be anywhere on the disk.

The dude could probably take out your lungs and heart with his eyes closed.

To be fair, so could I.

The idea is, each number is expressed as a sum of n factorials, with n being the number of digits in the number post-conversion. You start with the highest factorial that you can subtract out of the original number and work your way down.

1 becomes 1, because 1 = 1!, so the new number says “1x(1)”.

2 becomes 10, because 2 = 2!. The new number says “1x(2x1) + 0x(1)”.

3 becomes 11, because it’s 2 + 1. The new number says “1x(2x1) + 1x(1)”.

21 becomes 311: 4! is 24, so that’s too big, so we use 3!, which is 6. 3x6 = 18, so our number begins as 3XX.
That leaves 3 left over, which we know is 11. The new number says “3x(3x2x1) + 1x(2x1) + 1x(1)”.

That’s preferred, actually, gives them a nice peg to hang the donuts on.

That makes sense to me.

Everyone has a type, even sleazeballs that hit on people they’re delivering food to. They’re bound to find some women that don’t appeal to them.

No, he’s claiming that he shagged David Attenborough.

Same. It’s one thing if I’m calling my 7-year old niece that lives 100 miles away but I miss her and want to see her face. It’s something else entirely when I’m on a call I don’t want to be on in the first place, listening to people I don’t need to hear from who aren’t even talking to me.

From what I can easily find, it seems to be around 3k-4.8k CNY after taxes, about 3.6k to 5.7k before. This was in 2019, though.
