A screenshot from the Apple Developer Documentation. The text reads "To help place nonrounded content correctly, you can blur elements and aim to make the border of the resulting rounded, blurrred shapes as concentric as possible with even margins to make them fit best with the outer perimeter." Underneath there are two visual examples, one where some text is sitting to close to the edge of a pill-shaped container, and another where the same text has been made to look rounder by blurring and then nudged away from the edge to give it more even spacing all the way around.

Neat little UI design trick I picked up from the Apple Developer docs:

When you have a non-rounded element in a rounded container, getting the spacing between them right can be finicky. Blurring it gives you an idea of the visual weight and simplifies natural-looking alignment 👌

The Refrigerator

Highly suggest the Titanfall 2 campaign. It was developed by Respawn, who went on to create the Star Wars Jedi games. It's fast paced, action heavy, has really solid FPS parkour mechanics, giant mech battles, and it doesn't overstay it's welcome.

Get. The Fuck. Off Spotify. Now.

They are doing everything in their power to make sure your presence there is SOLELY to their benefit, AND you pay for the privilege. Why on Earth would you participate in such an abusive system?

I think we should collectively start misgendering everyone—how many “ma’ams” can Brad take before he snaps and adds “I have a penis” to his email signature?

Only if people think this way.

A horse with an AT-AT costume and a guy who looks half proud half disgusted with the horse

A man in Indiana made an AT-AT costume for his horse, intending to only get a few pictures before removing it. When he took off the headpiece the horse got upset and insisted that he put it back on, which made the horse happy again. Now the horse isn't allowing him to remove any piece of the costume

I’m not saying TLOU2 equals Breaking Bad. You’ve repeatedly misrepresented my point. Criticizing a story for a flawed character “looking bad” overlooks the intentional moral complexity. Like Walter White, Ellie’s complexity isn’t a flaw—it’s the story’s strength.

“I don’t think this Walt fella should be cooking meth, it makes him look bad!”

Force ghosts of Anakin Skywalker (Sebastian Shaw), Yoda (Frank Oz), and Obi-Wan Kenobi (Alec Guinness) appear on the forest moon of Endor during the final scene of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

“You will be visited by three spirits”

The spirits:

Yeah, of course everyone is entitled to an opinion. I am arguing that their specific example isn’t a valid criticism because it misses the point the creators intended. Which, and this is my opinion, I attribute to the story being too emotionally complex for a loud group of people.

When the criticism is that a moment like the one they described makes the character look bad, it’s a clear case of misunderstanding the creators’ intent. They’re entitled to dislike the game, but that doesn’t make the criticism valid.

Like I said, it was too emotionally challenging for some. It did not fail- it just did not deliver the safe hero fantasy you were looking for.

I strongly disagree. The story is meticulously crafted to mirror Ellie’s journey of revenge, ultimately challenging you to empathize with her target in a way only video games as a medium can achieve.

TLOU pt. 2 is a masterpiece. Gameplay, visuals, story, all 11/10.

The game is only controversial because some snowflakes couldn’t handle some emotional story beats and didn’t like playing as a woman who could kick their ass.

Shit like this is why people don't trust the left to govern.

More people didn’t vote than voted for Kamala or Trump combined. If Democrats could manage to excite and activate even a small number of that disaffected group things would be different.

Just to be clear, would you say this crater is on a planet?

Hm, while this is fascinating, I’m still pretty sure it was the chicken quesadilla left in a hot car that landed dumb 20-year-old me in the ER.
