I think they’re referring to the 2025 reboot https://store.steampowered.com/app/2300120/Painkiller/

Realistically the connector would have been proprietary, but I can see a world where we got cartridges that came in little cases like the games for nintendo ds or switch.

mAh/g (milliamp-hours per gram) is a similar unit, but it’s missing the voltage term. We can do a little dimensional analysis here to translate between them. Power = Current * Voltage, so you’d multiply this (CurrentTime)/(Weight) value by the nominal voltage of the cell to get to (PowerTime)/(Weight). So it is essentially still a measurement of capacity, but in terms of current instead of power. Phone batteries are often specified in units of Current*Time (e.g. milliamp-hours), but I’m not sure why.

I think it has to be considered by degree. Some companies, like Micron, are outright discontinuing their consumer brands while others are ‘just’ deprioritizing consumers to chase the AI bandwagon. It’s those companies’ prerogative to chase profits, but I’ll never buy another Micron product again if they ever decide to come crawling back.

Yeah I’m not actually against marvel quips, though I definitely feel they became detrimental to the writing style of their films over time. When I complain about it, I’m really complaining about interruptions where they aren’t warranted and don’t contribute to the narrative. A good quip isn’t just funny- it can contribute to audience understanding, help with pacing, and fits naturally into the narrative. A bad quip interrupts the narrative for no reason other than to interrupt. I don’t really have a good example for this, it’s more of a ‘know it when you see it’ situation. It was definitely better in the early marvel films. As much as I love witty characters like Spider-Man, not everyone needs to be comic relief and sometimes it just doesn’t jibe with the story being told.

Ads that pretend to be normal content are literally the fucking worst kind of ad and anyone who suggests implementing them should be dragged out back and shot. Not surprised that stack exchange is doing this, given that they seem determined to drive away their entire userbase.

Good.

Ok? Nobody asked

Good. There should be no confusion when we go for their fucking heads.

Will? Already have.

I comment this on many of their LinkedIn posts. I think they’ve blocked me at this point
