Concord is very polished. But it still seems fairly contained, a bunch of heroes, a handful of maps. Where did the 8 years go?

Firewalk studios has 169 employees as far as i can tell.

They use unreal engine, no single player campaign

Where did the time go?

Linking directly to a very relevant time stamp.

Let's not tempt fate....

If freezing salt water produces freshwater ice, why is desalinization such a difficult problem?

I was watching the above minute physics video, and they indicated in a brief one sentence line that saltwater freezes into freshwater ice. That got me thinking.

Under what circumstances could you actually freeze salt into ice? To make salt ice?

The game got a lot of hate online, but I've generally found when a game is hated on, there's usually something more. So I decided to actually play the game. I'm 5 hours in

Honestly I like it, for telltale like walking simulator, it sets up the story pretty well, it has some nice sci-fi beats. It's good for what it is. It isn't anything it promises not to be. I think it's a good game, I'd recommend waiting until it goes on sale for $10 maybe. At that price point it's about the cost of a movie and That's where I put it in terms of value pricing.

Some communities, like fark, let you annotate users that you interact with so that when you interact with them in the future have an idea about the previous context with them.

I think that would be a good feature for lemmy, able to add a note/nick name that displays any time you see a comment or post by that user

The astronauts on the ISS that are stuck and can't parachute back to Earth... but why not?

The highest jump I could find was 39km (Stratos jump)

Is it the height from the planet? The speed of the ISS? If we wanted to design ISS escape pods, what would be required?

Doing a rewatch of game of thrones, first time, and I'm thinking about Shae's arc.

She starts as a camp follower for a Lannister knight, gets poached into the service of Tyrion, follows him into the capital. Becomes a persistent force in his life, wont leave the city despite multiple threats on her life... Eventually Tyrion forces her onto a boat to flee the capital... and she "somehow" returns for Tyrion's regicide trial, only to end up in the bed of Tyrion's father... When Tyrian finds her there, she attempts to kill him.

This is my understanding of her Arc, and I'm confused by her motivations.

1. Why did she come back to the capital despite being safely away?
2. Why try to kill Tyrion when discovered in his father's bed?
3. If her motivation was just money, why not take the nice retirement offered to her three times?
4. If she loved Tyrion, why try to kill him at all, why come back to the capital and appear in his trial?

I know the official client isn't done, but are people finding success with the unofficial clients? Any good experiences?
