Oh, that's interesting. So perhaps this is pulling text from human-named systems? I guess that's more understandable. Still something they could moderate better.

Excellent point. Email sent.

I mean, would they even notice if I sent an email? Seem like it's either a very rare artifact they wouldn't bother fixing, or they did it on purpose (and wouldn't bother fixing).

That's exactly what I was thinking. I did find a link to an existing star system online: "Israel Hands". Someone "discovered" it in 2018. https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Israel_Hands I'm still figuring out their RNG, so I don't know if this is part of their vocab or part of the curated content.

Doesn't it suck that we can't tell what is real? I mean the internet has always been full of BS... but still... I guess since I don't post often, I'm just not used to people (prudently) being skeptical of my reality.

 

New player here. A bit surprised to see this mission "procedurally" generated. Has anyone else seen this?

Love the blast effects. One critique is that it is really hard to see the main character with so many brighter splashes going on. Perhaps use a higher contrast pallet, or use a glowing outline? Would it be feasible to add a simple lighting to the player, so it lit up one one side with each flash of light?

Ok - that just looks weird. And I'm into that. But I would need to try it out first. Do you know anywhere I can do that?

[–] altairabove@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks - do you know if there is somewhere I could try it out?

Thanks! That looks like a great keyboard. How would you compare it to the Logitech K860?

[–] altairabove@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wow, that's a great help! I love the look of the K860 - it's like a sculpt clone. I would buy one right away, but now you've gotten me interested in checking out all these others.... Is there somewhere I can try this stuff out?

 

I love the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic keyboard, but they were discontinued earlier this year. Can anyone recommend a replacement?

Specifically, I'm hoping for something with: Ergo shape, Thin / low height, Minimal travel, Minimal pressure, Completely silent

You could use a few different null hypotheses here. One with minimal assumptions would be that the medians are equal. This can be tested using the Mann-Whitney U test. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mann%E2%80%93Whitney_U_test
