Q: question about higher resolution in diablo 2

kathelkIn Diablo II, there must be some function which draws the viewport. In theory, would it be possible to change this function such that it draws the viewport 0.5 e.g. half size tiles for all objects so one can play in a higher resolution without needing a bigger screen? And allow it to draw more ti...

8:19 AM
@SaintWacko soon it'll be more expensive to have all the streaming services you need to watch stuff then to get Pay TV
though at that point you'd hope that someone would come up with a service that bundles Streaming Services for a cheaper one place price
 
@Memor-X That probably won't happen

2:04 PM
@Nzall Yeah, that would require all the streaming services working with a third party
 
@SaintWacko Also, it wouldn't really work since you can only watch 1 streaming service at a time. Like, if I wanted multiple streaming services, I'd just switch from one service to the next every couple months
No need to stay subbed to them all the time
 
2:20 PM
One of the advantages of streaming was that it was cheaper than pay tv.
But with all the fragmentation and exclusives, it's just leading to consumer frustration.
Which is sending a lot of people back to piracy; quick, easy, and don't have to figure out which carries what shows.

@Nzall I mean, you can only watch one cable channel at a time...
@Frank Accurate
 
@SaintWacko Yeah, but you don't pay for a single cable channel at a time, you pay for a bundle
 
@Nzall Which is exactly what we're talking about with the streaming services
 
Credit for pic goes to this tweet
 
It's unlikely that they'll be bundles available that are cheaper than a single service though, whereas you have to buy a bundle for channels
 
2:29 PM
@SaintWacko Depends on how you interpret it, really. You could also interpret each of the publishers who puts their shows on the streaming service as a separate channel. e.g. Disney+ has Marvel, Fox, Star Wars, Disney and Pixar as "channels". You can't get "just Marvel" or "Everything except Fox", so you get that bundle
meanwhile, with Cable, you get HBO as 1 channel, then another couple channels for Sports, etc
 
@Nzall One of the beauties of original streaming was that you didn't have to figure out who had what.
The same way people used to sit down and figure out which package had what shows.
 
@Frank definitely true, everything was on Netflix
 
Now we're in the same situation where people have to pick and choose, and it leads to a lot of frustration.
People just want to watch their favorite shows, y'know? Nobody signed up for complex math and organization.
 
2:50 PM
Exactly. I wanted to watch Futurama yesterday. Used to be on Netflix. Not anymore!
Continuum? Same thing!
 
And don't get me started on region locking...
I live in Belgium. Every time I ask someone for recommendations for stuff to watch, it's not available here in Belgium.
 
I have too much to watch, and not enough time to watch most of it.
I'm hoping to finish my hobby room so I can binge watch while building gunpla.
 
3:06 PM
I just binge watch while working lol
 
@Frank always been the thing with piracy, the lack of convenience
people will generally go legit if it's more convenient
@SaintWacko unless you have recording or PiP
 
@Memor-X Yeah. I mean, look at the gaming market: I wonder how many people have pirated EGS exclusives because they didn't want to use that store
 
Wah I don't like that platform or app I'm going to steal from them instead
Bridge I am thinking about buying a house
 
@GnomeSlice !!! That's a big step.

@GnomeSlice That's exciting :)
 
user15026
@Nzall This happens to me a lot in Canada too
 
3:37 PM
@Ash this is why you should just read books instead tbh
 
user15026
@Wipqozn I mostly do! (I...finished 4 books yesterday. Two were middle grade novels, but still.)
 
@Wipqozn don't worry, books will be next
 
@Ash only 4?!?!?!
there are 24 hours in a day Ash.
 
user15026
I know, I'm a slacker
 
user15026
@Memor-X I mean you do have things like Kobo Plus and Kindle Unlimited but they've mostly got the same books (and you can still buy books however you want)
 
3:40 PM
@Ash Have you read that series yet I recommended you a couple years ago? Three Square Meals?
 
Ooh, The IT Crowd is still on Netflix
That'll be good to binge while programming
 
user15026
@Nzall I don't even remember the recommendation but that's not surprising. Who's the author?
 
oh speaking of books @Ash!
 
user15026
I suspect that books won't go that way unless you manage to completely undo libraries as an institution. (Although I know publishers are trying, with ebooks especially)
 
I was at Chapters the other day, and it appears that they're letting staff wear a pronouns nametag if they want. I saw someone with a "they/them" nametag. So like, yeah, more normalization of not just assuming a persosn pronouns and also of just non-binary pronouns.
 
user15026
3:43 PM
@Wipqozn This is good I like this more of this
 
user15026
(Although friendly reminder they're not "preferred pronouns" they're just pronouns)
 
@Ash M. Tefler, and the books are available on Amazon under the title "John Blake Chronicles". Also, I'll repeat what I said when i first made the recommendation: it's a sci-fi harem novel series, so there is some explicit content in there. Back then you said that wasn't a problem
 
@Ash Yes! I'm not sure if maybe it was just that chapters or if it's a new company wide initiative
@Ash I actually had "pronouns" but I changed it to "preferred" since I thought I had it wrong :/
Sorry about that
 
user15026
@Nzall Still isn't. I read a lot of things that would be considered "explicit" content by a lot of people's standards
 
user15026
@Wipqozn All good! :)
 
3:45 PM
@Ash okay. at least in this series the explicit content isn't gratuitous, but rather relevant to the plot.
 
@Wipqozn So what you're saying is that you're more of an amateurnoun?
 
@Yuuki OH YUUKI
 
user15026
@Yuuki snorts
 
user15026
@Nzall It often is! Even in romance novels.
 
user15026
:)
 
3:53 PM
I remember looking at this Eco game but I've been playing a lot of survivals lately plus this one seems to be best played with a large group in multiplayer.
 
@Ash you can tell my inexperience with the genre, probably. I generally read more smutty things where the explicit content is "just because" or at most a reward or goal. From the thirteen chapters I've read so far of TSM, the sex in that series is actually a driving force of both the plot and the personal and relational development of the main characters
 
@Nzall That TSM acronym threw me for a sec.
Because I'm used to that referring to a LoL esports organization/team.
 
user15026
@Nzall yes, pwp is its own thing. But yes, in most books its there for plot/character development, a lot more than people often realize.
 
@Ash pwp?
 
user15026
@Yuuki Yeah, not quite the same, I don't think ;)
 
4:02 PM
oh, porn with plot
 
user15026
@Nzall oh, now I'm probably dating myself from the days of ff.net and LJ fanfic communities, aren't I? It's "porn with plot" aka explicit held together with thin plot
 
@Ash I dunno, the "Bjergsen and 4 wards" meme sounds like a harem story.

user15026
@Yuuki snorts fair enough
 
@Ash I both like and dislike the restricted tagging system that FF.net has in comparison to AO3.
On the one hand, it makes it tougher to gauge a fic before I start it and it definitely makes it harder to avoid triggers. On the other hand, some people get really crazy with the tags in AO3.
 
user15026
4:06 PM
It's been so long since I visited either. Indie romance has kinda filled the fanfic niche for me in a lot of ways.
 
user15026
(Okay, no, I did go to AO3 recently for a specific She-Ra fic, but that was a targeted thing rather than just a want for fic)
 
@Yuuki I was about to mention that last one. If you allow people to create their own tags, someone will eventually write an entire story just using the tags themselves
 
user15026
@Yuuki oh, yeah, people tend to really get...inventive with them
 
The tag "no beta, we die like men" can go die in a fire as far as I'm concerned, it's a long name that provides absolutely no value.
 
4:14 PM
I've had it in early access for a while, but thanks!
Hopefully some others pick it up too.
 
user15026
@Yuuki Yeah, that's not useful
 
I think 3 is a big step back up from what I didn't really like about 2.

@PrivatePansy It's a tiny miracle for us all.

@Wipqozn This is one of those games I want to play but am SO BAD at
 
Oh, ffs. Green cart (compost/organics) is usually collected weekly over the summer, but biweekly for the rest of the year, alternating weeks with garbage. For various reasons, the past three times I've put my bin out it's been during the normal garbage week (that remains biweekly in the summer), and have been getting frustrated because it wasn't being emptied. Turns out, the city decided to keep it biweekly due to COVID, but didn't tell anyone through normal means, like a flyer.

@SaintWacko No, they did put the news release on the website, but that is basically the worst way to inform the public. It's not going to be front page news and probably won't even get mentioned on the nightly news, so the only other option is to directly inform the public through a flyer.
