Directional brick movement has no reason to exist. All you need is literally a mouse to aim and a mousewheel to adjust height and maybe right click for rotation . Anything else is just unnecessarily complex design imo

What do you mean unnecessarily complex?
Do you know what it takes to move the brick exactly 2 studs to the right of your perspective with the keyboard? Hitting numpad 6 twice.
Do you know what it takes to move the brick exactly 2 studs to the right of your perspective with the mouse? Well, first, that depends on your position, angle, fov, distance, mouse sensitivity, and your co-ordination. Then from there, you can try to move the mouse precisely to where it needs to go, requiring more precision at longer ranges.

I wonder which one sounds more complex.

Alright, how about another example?
I want a 2x4 brick, and then I want another 2x4 brick, stacked on top but connected by only the back right stud of the bottom one and the front left stud of the top one.
Keyboard? Simple. + 8 6 6 6.
Mouse? Not even possible in Blockland at the moment without using another brick as support. Sure. You mentioned the wheel for height. But how high does it go per tick? A plate or a brick? You wouldn't want another button, because that would be unnecessarily complex.
What if this brick was supported by something high up, and there was nothing nearby to quickly raise it up? Do you just continuously guess where you need to put it on the bottom, and slowly lift it up till you get it where you want it?

Yeah, your product key is bound to the motherboard when you register it. So switching motherboard will cause that to happen.

no it literally can't. Tony said originally he wanted to force certain avatars on people (a preset list) which player persistence cannot do

All he wants it to do is save their appearance and load it when they rejoin.

i'm not gonna act like i know what happened but u seem to like to play down whatever "jokes" these were

Sounds like a case of people being completely unaware of their own actions. That or it's extreme backpedaling.

But DrenDran and Momentum can't get upset over this post because it's just a joke!

I cannot fully agree or disagree.
There are some things that definitely need correction. But since you bring up speech, I'm going to assume that this is what the thread is about.
And on that subject, I completely and utterly stand for free speech. Anyone who is against it must like stuffting where they sleep.

People can say "Free speech is hate speech" all they want, but anti-speech laws can just as easily be used in a hateful manner as well. Just look at literally any country that doesn't have free speech.

That's not the point, point is, soviet, why are you provoking people in every little cause you can think of?

What do you mean people? It's literally just you.

And no one else on this forum cares about you. You've been stuffting on the community for a while now.

Is it really crashing or is it just 'not responding'?
If it's just 'not responding', don't end it, just let it keep going.

« on: August 01, 2018, 02:29:07 PM »

Exactly. That is my loving point.
If you go through the effort to go to a store in person, why would you use a smart device that ALSO has the ability to order those same things from your house?

Just stay home. Going to a physical store at all should be fazed out with this technology, not updated by it.

Because a physical store has a much better way of advertising things you didn't intend on getting. Strategically placed items that you have no choice of passing by when you're going to certain areas. And even the shelf the items are placed on. Things adults would be more interested in higher up, and things kids would be more interested in lower down. You can't do this online. Especially when people are using a search feature.
Then there's delivery fees. When it comes to pizza, you're lucky it's just usually a $3 charge. Most other places also give a % up charge, as well as a higher flat fee. This makes buying things in bulk a lot more expensive than paying to drive there yourself.
Then there's urgency. If you need something fast, the best way to do so is to get it yourself, rather than wait till someone has time to bring it to you.

I have a feeling physical stores will exist so long as the things you need that sell there only come in physical form.

The moment we can download food is the moment grocery stores will stop existing. I have a feeling that wont ever happen.
