I’m 90% sure that the “new” (Diablo 2 Resurrected - is this what you’re referring to?) one doesn’t have any monetization. It’s a faithful remake.

That’s true, but only for my screen size. A smaller device wouldn’t.

This was in February of last year according to the screenshot, my device was an iPhone 11 - not a small one, but rather very much standard screen size!

Slightly off topic, but the Microsoft Authenticator app on iOS is - in my opinion - the probably worst designed app by a large corporation. Nothing in there works the way you’d exp…

It was mentioned in one of their WWDC videos. IIRC “Reduce Transparency” now would affect the amount of blur. It was similar to the amount of blur in VisionOS. But this was a few d…

I would also be interested in the reasoning here! Just for comparisons sake, our 8.6kwP setup with a 10kwH battery cost us (after subsidies from governemnt) appr. ~€11.5k. Haven't …

A bit off-topic, but one gripe I had with some implementations of subtitles is when they’re delivering on the identity of a person before this was exposed. I don’t know why this ha…

It’s actually also indicative of German! (and I would assume a few other languages?) “Ich bin seit zwei Tagen hier.”

I think the author is German (inferred from the TLD), so that might just be the language barrier.

I actually recently purchased my first Kindle, as well as an gift upgrade for my partner. I researched and talked to a friend of mine who owns one. At first I was determined I woul…

We drive an ID.5. Apart from the UX, the outdated visual design language – is the interface also horrendously slow in yours? I have very noticeable lag when interacting with it, so…

This is a pet peeve topic of mine that I've never put forth for discussion, so here goes. TL;DR: do you know of any examples of a good documentation of a specific game and its mech…

Does anyone know what was behind this link? It was mentioned as "too much of a good thing", but seems that account has been deactivated and the tweet is gone. https://twitter.com/j…

Does that mean blind jews can use this as precedent to eat whatever they like?

Crystal Skull, for me, is really one of the most disappointing continuation of any series ever. It's even worse than the Star Wars prequels (and later on sequels), because those at…

The comments are really terrible to read. There was a post with a few examples on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/MonkeyIsland/comments/vo62zx/this_i...

I would say this is not entirely correct as a standalone rule. Just to make it clear, I completely disagree with this statement the OP made: > If it's not obvious, it's probably no…

I definitely agree with this sentiment in terms of general UX and performance. I can't find a lot of messages and files that I'm looking for because it's so badly structured. And i…

Yes. A lot of. I value the work the designer put into it. But you have to also consider all the variables: 1. This is not a one and done deal. If he had a single client paying that…

I'm convinced the poster above is only surprised because of the combination in this case: It costs (a lot of) money to buy this set. It requires a lot of manual work to add the cus…

This happened to me yesterday as well, only it was "liked" instead of "replied". In my confusion I clicked on the account, since I didn't recognize it. Only to mistakenly click the…

But the scaling of bitmaps would have the same problems, wouldn't they? Or do you mean custom icons per given resolution/size?

Very interesting concept, thanks for providing this link! We could also apply this terminology to startups: precocial startups are profitable and self-sustaining soon after their l…

I somewhat agree with this. Instead of shaming companies for trying to produce/show the most likely content users would enjoy, shame those who abuse the easy access to their users,…
