Cursive big f: “integration”, which can be interpreted in two ways. One is “area under the curve” for some part of the curve. Other is “average value of a part of the curve multiplied by the size of that part of the curve”. Curve being the function, the graph, f(x), however you wanna call it.

Normal d: “differentiation” (from difference), infinitely small change. Usually used in ratios: df/dx means how much does f(x) change relative to x when you change x a little bit.

Cursive d: “partial”, same as normal d but used when working with higher dimensional data like 3D. Can also mean “boundary” of something. Example: boundary of a volume in 3D, like wrapping paper around a box. Or, boundary of such wrapping paper itself, if it’s not perfectly connecting.

Omega: just a Greek letter used as a variable, in this case there’s a history of it being used as a sort of “density” variable in the field of differential geometry. The college row in the meme is kind of translating the high school row from a function to a 3D volume.

Only one of them gets to make the decision to fire the other

1440p at regular monitor size is probably all you’d need, but the annoying issue is that 1080p content looks worse on that than it does on a 1080p monitor

someone better

Someone who can milk their playerbase better. Lootboxes and other “surprise mechanics” (addictive gambling), battle passes, games as a service

That’s a fork and it looks nice, thanks for sharing

I want installers to die, portable is the future

Run a transcoder in “the cloud” (another PC in the room) and then it’s possible

Is there an updated fork with security patches? Android disclosed so many media vulnerabilities in the last 5 years that I don’t trust unupdated media players anymore

If you want a serious answer, you could theoretically disable all security checks on Win11 so you could hex-edit patch it to run, but it would be (1) a lot of effort and (2) probably show that it’s nowhere near finished, because it still misses UI integration for example

That eats into their profits for their other/new games

I couldn’t tell you the last time I bought a AAA game.

Going with her to the nine hells is her “good” ending.

Letting her explode is her bad ending.

Where did you see this?

Wyll’s act 3 content feels so stupid, where he suddenly starts ego tripping and becomes less and less likeable. “The blade of avernus” my ass

Scalability. This is much better for people running a lemmy instance without terabytes of disk space.
