This marks the end of my 1yr 9mo old disposable account.

I tried to read this with the narrator's voice from Disco Elysium

Diehard fans may disagree with you. Personally I don't care what they're going to say

 

Personally I believe that the idea must be good in order to have the content get any chance of actually becoming successful/popular, but I welcome to be proven otherwise.

I found this captcha in the YouTube player a few days back.

 

The clones retain the same physical attributes and memory as the original 'you' just before the replacement. From the clone's perspective, it would be as if you swapped places with another person with no context of the situation that person was in, except it's with every living person on earth, everyone but you cease to exist and the original 'you' isn't affected in any way.

How would you imagine the world to become after this? How would the society act now that it has become entirely composed of 'you's? How would you and your clones live the rest of your lives in such a world?

With regard to what if every person on earth gets a similar buffer: Assuming everyone initially becomes aware of this feature, I would imagine communities would pool up their storage by connecting them via references to other member's name or identity (similar to linked lists). They could store their collective thoughts in the form of megathreads similar to how Twitter users do it, in plain text or making use of links to Babel pages as suggested in another comment.

Intelligence agencies would be extremely efficient in cramming information in their limited shared buffers. Imagine they observe 'CakeShoeRock' written in the buffer and immediately conclude they are in a time loop because they anticipated this exact scenario and developed a comprehensive set of protocols and a system of condensed code words to follow for the same in advance.

I hate having to toggle off legitimate interests off vendors too. The very premise of this option has been anti-consumer from the beginning.

Now it makes sense. The transparent nature of the image obscured the outline of the switch in my screen from which I was initially unable to identify that it represented the different cases of viewport width of the switch.

Thanks for the clarification!

I can relate to this too. I try to fight the site out of spite by furiously clicking on the back button of the browser to get me to the home page, and it does show the page for a split second before undoing the redirects and pulling me back to the page I was originally in. In the end I have to succumb to using the website's own navigation buttons to incrementally head back to the starting page.

Sometimes it becomes a race between me and the site implementing infinite scroll to see if I can reach the footer before the site can load more content; the only time I curse my internet connection for being good

The part about having proper print layout of the site is actually interesting to me. I just learned about it recently and was curious about how there was explicit CSS support for this. This introduces an entirely new perspective on how a website should be designed to offer reliable print support that I am willing to learn.

I agree with this to some extent. For even wider lines of text occupying the entire desktop screen, it actually becomes hard for me to discern which line I am currently reading, causing me to start reading the entire line all over again.

I've witnessed it is part of dark patterns in most websites. Often the more consumer friendly option in a consent dialog box is greyed out as if the option itself is unavailable. Even I would've been fooled by it if not for my habit of clicking on the button regardless.

 

I wish to understand what elements or aspects of the design of modern websites the end users are annoyed from. Though you are free to express your personal opinions, it would be even more insightful if you could provide objective criticism and suggestions for alternative implementations so that I may incorporate the same in my current and future projects to make them as user friendly as possible.

Some criticisms I have encountered a while back include:

  • Switches being basically checkboxes with more ambiguous active state
  • Scrolling animations that prohibit user from linearly scrolling through the page

Make sure that the opinion is not

  • Related to business/legal matters e.g. Cookie consent notices, ad banners etc.
  • Too vague e.g. Poor website layout
  • Highlighting objectively bad practices e.g. Lack of accessibility features

I recognise I could have followed a design system for this question, but I want to understand the situation from the perspective of the end users to see if they have a differing view on what a convenient user experience should be like.

 
 
 

What does the launcher do with regard to the operation of the game that cannot be done within the actual game itself? Is it due to a technical limitation or simply there for the convenience of the players? Are there alternatives to such methods of starting the execution of games?
