@KazWolfe he just assigned %0.000001 of google server power to brute force it :P

@Ellesedil much much much less data
A number in json is, what, 20 bytes for 10 digits excluding period? It's 4 bytes at most in protcol buffers
And that's excluding the preamble of the name
Which is another 20 bytes or so over the wire, while a protobuf implementation doesn't need to send it
 
Unionhawk
Unionhawk
Meanwhile, I'm implementing pages because the server can't hold all these bytes of xml
 
Ellesedil

I see, so that also ties into the performance angle. Less data = more performance.

the XBone controller is pretty much the same as the X360, the buttons are a little "Streamlined"

Wow, a wild 992 CP Golbat

@KutuluMike the shape of the controller seems like it could be a bit more comfy, but I've only really seen it in pictures, so maybe it hasn't really changed

back in the day, the PS1 controller d-pads were small enough that I could just tilt my thumb around on it and it was amazingly responsive
on the PS4 d-pad I actually have to move my thumb to press the buttons :(
it's a great controller though
