… because I CAN and with this simple trick you can too.

Shrinking

Way to often the player is not in focus (mostly after alt tabbing) and space bar scrolls me one page down. Now I have to scroll up again and klick into the picture. Infuriates me just thinking about it.

So instead of calculating the price once and putting it on the sign, they calculate it every time a customer shows up at the register. Sure sounds way easier.

It’s also swimming for me. I used to swim combative during my time in school, but stopped after I graduated. I didn’t do any sport regularly for about 10 years and picked up swimming again a year ago and I love it.

It gives me a break from every day stress. Once I’m in the pool, all the noise gets drowned (literally and figuratively). I totally agree that it’s like meditation. Concentrating on your breathing and feeling your body float in the water you either think about nothing, letting your body do the moves you practiced a million times over and over, or you try to feel every muscle and the feedback of the water to try to perfect your stroke by making small adjustments. No distractions, no phone in your pocket, no music in your ears, no one trying to talk to you. Having my routine and knowing how long it takes I don’t even have to check the clock.

Also I like that you don’t have to rely on the weather. There’s no excuse not to go because it’s too hot, or raining or whatever. In an indoor pool you always have the same conditions no matter what.

But we might be able to reverse engineer it. Isn’t that what we are doing, kinda?

But on the PC Version we don’t have a frame cap. My guess would be, that fixed 30fps feel better than a fluctuation between 25 and 40.
