same - also there isn't much incentive for a manufacturer to produce a "normal" single serving (about 60-70g). By my judgement that single serving looks at least 100g

Is that issue not immediately apparent to you? Your splash page says literally nothing. Why can't you put even a tiny example of what this is all about? You can't expect people to hand over personal information to hear an elevator

agreed - he doesn't say the age of the kids but I imagine they're both under 10? Done right this could set them up for life and make them millionaires with virtually no effort by the age of 30 and still give them a childhood fille

Figured as it was January 1st a lot of people will be trying to shift a few pounds over the next couple of months. This is the diet/system I've had the most success with over the years!

The timezones are brutal, particularly in summer. And the cultural aspect that rather than deliver bad news, they prefer to just not deliver news at all (thinking that that's somehow less of a problem or gets them in to less trouble?).

I guess it's broken because it's been reduced from a game of progressive deduction to solving 1 5 letter anagram - not the original intent of the game. I completely agree that it's a fascinating wider question I think I'

I don't think I'm asking that? I guess I'm asking, where is the fun in reducing a game that takes some brain power to a game of solving one 5-letter anagram. Your analogy is a fair one though. I don't begrudge people usi

You know, as much as I admire the drive of people to write tools and hack together scripts to brute force and essentially break the game - I also hate that the world is like this sometimes. Cant we just have a fun game that people can while

Do you think there would be a perception that I (a client) paying 100% rate for a project where people only 80% switched on will lead to a feeling that I'm only getting 80% "quality" or 80% of what it could be. (I work in a c

I don't really see how this can work in any kind of project/sprint based working environment. I work in a position where our clients contract us to complete a parcel of work over a period of several months with a hard deadline at

Cardano is an even more interesting prospect to me.

It's just a film set. Pretty simple to make, probably put that together in about 5 days plus planning!

Apple have an in house team that specialize in just these kind of keynote slides. I imagine it's worked up mostly in keynote, maybe with a bit of extra software like After Effects on the side. They employ an outside company to do the b

The 'side quest' side of all fallout games is usually far stronger and more interesting/rewarding for sure than the main trail which I think is almost deliberately made flat/weak to encourage you to explore the world mor

There is still some good writing out there for sure. Check out Spider-man on PS4 - it's a linear game so there aren't conversation options to choose, but the writing is up there with anything else in the spider-man/marvel uni

Looking at Amazon's top PS4 games right now, the vast majority are under $35. I wonder what % of gamers actually pay full price anyway. The next 12-24 months look like an insanely busy release schedule, with that long a backlog for m

A $10USD rise usually means a $15-20 rise here in Canada. Games here are already $79.99 which means with taxes a next gen console game is likely to be >$100 at launch - that's a psychological barrier I think that will be very proble

I think you can apply this same principle to so many areas of hobbies. As soon as you get more involved and be more of a creator than just sitting there and letting everyone else do things for you, you get so much more out of the experience

I guess there's a lot to be said for having a good community of users who love the product and want to help contribute to it to make it better. Active creators rather than passive consumers.

A pilot friend of mine assures me that whilst MS Flight Sim is going to be incredible, everyone should be keeping an eye on X-Plane: https://www.x-plane.com If you're looking for a more accurate, 'real' simulator
