There's a pretty large combination of factors that went on from what I remember. Partly it just plain didn't get that hot that often in the UK or France back then. Partly they wore entirely different undergarments that layered to keep sweat off their actual clothes and keep them cool. Partly the summer clothes were often flowy or puffy which helped move air near the skin. And partly the fabrics they wore were different. Things like linen and cotton were the go tos. Even the linen itself was different, modern linen has shorter fibers and is much lighter.
After the great renunciation (when men started wearing the modern(ish) suit) you start to see a lot more references to taking off layers either to cool off or to keep them clean or whatever. You also start to see variations in really hot places like the American deep south and Bermuda to deal with climates that get way way hotter than Europe with its nearby seas and cooling prevailing winds.
Please note that all of this may be wrong and I am entirely going off what I can remember off the top of my head.
Unfortunately probably not. G3 events aren't that uncommon, there's usually one every couple months. It never hurts to go look for a few minutes though. It's a pretty rough prediction, it's not set in stone. The best I've seen was a G4 and not the big G5 a few months ago.
Yeah IDK if people in the thread are actually familiar with the scale.
I'm fairly far north and I'm considering turning off my g3 email alerts and just leaving the bigger ones since it's generally a nothingburger.
Yeah, it feels like the entire time he's really trying to link these games to actual deaths during war that seems pretty tenuous, largely due to his own "ick" factor that "his thing" is being used by the military.
The section in the middle where he essentially asks all his interviewees basically "have you killed anyone" is pretty awkward. Like, of course these people don't really want to talk about that. Nobody wants to go around thinking they're directly responsible for preventable deaths. It's like he wants someone to just say "Am i the baddie?" like that Mitchel and Webb sketch.
It also completely glosses over the way that "play" is often just training for something more violent. Tag is a fun game until someone brings a knife. But there's a world of difference between "you sunk my battleship" and the Bismarck. It's like he's somehow taken the stance that video games cause violence in the most roundabout way possible.
It's a shame because the video is good but it could be so much more interesting diving into examples about how these games actually work and are used instead of hemming and hawing the whole time over his imagined Cluedo to murder piperine.
IDK, it's been a long time since I watched the episode but isn't that literally the point? That any amount of critical thinking makes their views make no sense?
If you have about 20 minutes or less if you crank the speed, this podcast about laugh tracks is pretty interesting.
Ok, I'm a bit out of the loop but is Deadlock actually any good? Like, most of what I've heard is that it just isn't very fun. Even though they kinda fell apart the auto battler and the card game from Valve were generally fairly well received from what I remember. But everything I've heard about Deadlock is that it's not fun, and is bringing the worst elements of DOTA with it.
Maybe since it's barely even a thing yet, it might wildly change since that's part of the Valve MO.
Joe Pera Talks With You might be my favorite show of all time. The way it makes fun of the midwest with such love, and is both hilarious and heartfelt just hits different.
Ah, ok. The Unifi stuff is a bit weird like that. I recommend installing the controller on a computer if you continue to have issues. You don't have to run it all the time, just use it for config and then turning it off is fine. It'll give you way more information and control over exactly how the AP is set up.
