There was something about the shape and color of the old wings that always made me thing there was an alert dot, like they didn't fit in. I really like the hexagon background, colors, and wings, in the new logo.

But I think the shape of the bee itself could be improved; I'd round bottom instead of having a stinger point. And if the thing on the top is a crown I think it should be a different color, otherwise I just have no idea what that thing on top is, maybe I just don't know enough about bee anatomy?

Thanks for the update and hope you have less trouble in the future! Don't worry about the downtime I really appreciate that here it's serving a clear purpose unlike Twitter lol

You should make another prediction now for what social networks will be like in another 7 years

Do you think Tabletop would be the right place to discuss Dimension 20 or other actual-play content or would that be better categorized in something like entertainment?

 

I submitted a similar bug report previously where the wrong post context can sometimes load when clicking the link to respond to a specific comment. A /comment/... url.

Now I am also sometimes getting the wrong post title and body simply navigating to posts themselves from the main feed. Notice how in my screenshots both pages have the same url https://beehaw.org/post/721194 and comments, but one has the incorrect title and body.

I think this is a very important issue to resolve in case a NSFW post is mistakenly loaded for someone who does not wish to see NSFW content.

My wife and I met 8 years ago playing Dota 2. Now our friend group is all late 20s early 30s, and we mostly play pve games like Darktide a couple times a week, but when we can we also meet up for tabletops. We will definitely continue playing games since we enjoy them. My in-laws just retired and they have gotten really into pokemon go. My mom never really 'got' any game but now she's really into Lego and jigsaw puzzles. One of my friend's parents are also really into tabletops and will sometimes join us. It's super cool that you and your kids have a hobby that you share and bond over, and I hope to have that with my own child someday!

Yeah I have a Radeon 6800, and when my mouse was at 1000hz polling even the SteamDeck graphics preset at 1080p dropped to 1fps. But after lowering the mouse polling in Razer Synapse, Cyberpunk's performance has been surprisingly good. Now I can run the preset with high-ultra graphics + low raytracing at 4k, usually around 50fps.

I held off on Cyberpunk since even after the performance and bug issues were mostly fixed, I kept hearing complaints about stats and upgrade systems. I heard the next update is going to make a ton of changes and fix the gameplay, but I decided to buy the game now and play a bit so I can see the before/after.

According to steam I have 4 hours in-game, but really that was 2 hours of tweaking settings to try and fix a stuttering issue that made the game unplayable. Turns out my mouse being set to 1000hz polling was the problem; lowered my mouse to 500hz and the game runs smoothly. That has never been a problem for me in any Unity or Unreal game, if RedEngine can't support 1000hz the least they could do is add a popup to tell me that's what the issue is so I don't waste time toggling every setting and reinstalling drivers for no reason. After that I spent like an hour customizing my character, and in the hour in which I was actually playing the game I made my way through some of the intro/tutorial missions.

Not a good experience starting out, but I'm hoping to have enough time this week to finish the intro stuff and finally be able to run around the city.

I'd really like Entertainment to have subcommunities for Movies, TV, and Streaming.
