- Comment on Transparent solar cell technology could allow smartphones and cars to self-charge 8 hours ago:
There was a very simple phone from Samsung a few years back that had a solar cell on the back.
Since the battery lasted over a week anyway, you could easily double the battery life by just having it in indirect light.
Modern phones are guzzling so much power that it’s hardly useful there.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 publishing director says "almost all games should cost more at a base level" because they cost so much to make 2 weeks ago:
That’s one of the reasons I lost almost all interest in games.
It already costs an arm and a leg to stay somewhat on top of the hardware requirements, I can’t justify to myself also investing hundreds of hours into essentially busy work.
I don’t enjoy fetching Fred’s uncle’s magic shovel of doom from a stupid generic dungeon 4h away.
Maybe I’m weird, but I use games more like interactive movies. I want a story, not some artificial and ultimately pointless “challenge”.
