Internet companies usually have clauses that they can terminate the agreement at any time for any reason, including “because they feel like it”. They usually don’t have to tell you why, either.
Same deal with all the “licensing” things and “digital goods ownership”. In two words: you don’t.
But it’s been that way for ages.
Let’s be real here: They are trying to create a “platform”^TM and “ecosystem”^TM to later wall off, embrace, extend, extinguish or otherwise enshittify.
There is no actual problem they are solving.
It’s venture capital bait.
Sure, but be careful with “universal basic income” ,“taxes” and actual national expenses.
What you have there is a wish list. It’s a good wishlist, but an actual plan requires planning. Including how the math works out. Which can be done, but you still need to do it.
It said “cheaper” not “energy efficient”.
Wings are easy, jet engines are hard.
Besides, if you can do it with an electrical locomotive on the ground, the energy conversion to electricity of a power plant should be better than the energy conversion of a jet engine from fuel to movement.
So imo, cheaper seems plausible, energy efficient is a maybe.
I have also seen the picture and can confirm, that it is, in fact, a picture.
That’s not good, but it’s not like we can switch to a more secure alternative. ;)
Gumbies isn’t real, but if you can explain to me how CI/CL or github actions work using only their documentation I’m going to proverbially eat a hat.
If this is not a meme…
You know how you have to look up… errors when you don’t know what they mean?
That.
Figuring out how to do something specific, like UI, works just like that. All the time. It’s “looking up how it works”, then “messing around with it until it does” all the way down.
If you are just starting out, coding something in HTML and javascript might be intuitive, because you can see and run it right away. Otherwise you will have to figure out how to use some kind of UI framework in the language you’re using. Because they’re all different. Yeeeaaah…
I think it’s harder for compiled languages and easier for interpreted ones.
Yes, but I don’t think it matters. It’s not hyper specialized yet, but the initial problem of “there are no users” is gone. I don’t think anything can stop the fediverse now. The protocol is just too useful to not support.
Factorio works, but it would probably help to give a guided to tour the store and genres, to figure out what she would like.
If she has really no exposure at all, playing just factorio is limiting yourself to eating one flavor of ice cream.
Eh. Seems alright. Definitely not going to a cinema to see it. Gearbox milked the franchise to death, I really only liked Borderlands 2. Looks like Krieg is in this, which isn’t canonical. But fun. He also says nothing in the trailer?
My hate for what they did with tiny tina is unmeasurable. The character does not work when she is not a child. If they had put an actual child actor in their shoes and THEN made them blow up a lot of people, with gore, that would be the level tina is at. Like, if Borderlands had realistic graphics, it would be as PG 18 as Doom (2016) +. For understandable reasons. She is a traumatised child that got ate up by pandora and lived. On a revenge quest. All other characters +1 or +2 Tina gets a -20.
Not hating on the actor, lots of things can go wrong for the “magic” to not happen, most aren’t on them.
I actually don’t care for the prequel or BL1 backstory part. I’m not hooked by the premise.
Expectation is “mid”. If an opportunity to watch it falls right into my lap I might, but realistically I will probably forget it exists when the ad campaign is through.
Anyone got a commmand line tool change all my stuff? Because if I have to do change all the remotes all the time, for dozens of projects I’m going to lose my mind.
Please take care that modern design practices and the latest materials are used in construction of the house, as I want it to be a showplace for the most up-to-date ideas and methods. Be alerted, however, that kitchen should be designed to accommodate, among other things, my 1952 Gibson refrigerator.
That’s actually too easy, because electrical systems have been standardized for a long time.
Should be something like “15 highpowered electrical stoves, but keep the total power consumption below 15 Watts.”
Or, homeautomation and integration with google/alexa, but using the old fridge.
Yes, but you have to remember that the developer community is absolutely tiny compared to the number of gamers.
It’s a neat gimmick, but 98% of the people who could be your audience will get nothing out of the game being open source.
I would really like it if certain specific games were more open source and more moddable, for example stellaris has an annoying formula hard coded that makes combat balancing and weapon modding very difficult. On the other hand, games like openRA exist and I’m not playing that and I’m not doing anything with the source either. That one even has fully functioning multiplayer, but it’s so built in that it’s hard to reuse for anything else. So you might end up being torn between making the game really good and making the tools and code really good.
I think the biggest appeal of open source games is as a learning resource. Maybe. idk.
Also, may I suggest panda3d, which I’m shilling for at every opportunity that I get, because it’s neat, 3d, open source and runs with C or python?
How is this trial enforced?
Since it’s now closed source and they distribute what is possibly/probably/presumably a binary blob, the same way all the others are enforced. With some kind of DRM date checking whatever.
Not sure about unsung, but definitely heroes in my book.
