The Steam Machine is a victim of RAM prices exploding. It's price is fair considering the price of its parts but also causes it to be in a price segment where I am not sure who it …

> You don't have to be an amazing programmer to be an amazing game designer That has been true even without AI. Solutions to create games with barely any programming knowledge have…

That is all true but even as a hardcore Linux and Thinkpad user, I have to admit it is a hard sell when no one can offer the quality of Apple. Apple is the only hardware company wh…

Policy makers are not stupid, the system is working as intended. The intention is to destroy public education in favor of private schools. Same as public health care has been syste…

Just because some researchers are infected with this idiocy that EY propagates does not mean that it is legit. Maybe they should pay more attention to real problems like the sycoph…

Yeah and > A C compiler written in Rust used to be a graduate thesis. It isn’t anymore. Or maybe like a little recreational project for multiple weekends. There is that weird myth …

The combination of expensive hardware AND expensive games kills the switch 2 for me. 80 Dollar just to play Mario Kart? Even older switch titles are barely ever on sale. I never bu…

If you follow established news media, yes. The war is pretty well documented by independent journalists, good information is just harder the find. I guess it is a combination of es…

> This of course would assume that vulnerabilities are in fact unique (which is admittedly questionable). Yeah, I don't think all that generated software will be as unique as peopl…

While Valve isn't the worst company when you buy on GoG you support a company dedicated to keeping things DRM free and preserving older games. Plus fight the Steam monopoly.

> if it was for the companies who use Denuvo and it added negative value then Denuvo wouldn't exist as a business and game publishers would happily post their games to pirate sites…

> AI might become just another power tool for creative expression It is NOT a digital tool to create art. Yes, people used to be snobbish about digital art. Some still are. This do…

> The point of types is to prove the absence of errors Maybe for you. Originally static typing was to make the job of the compiler easier. Dynamic typing was seen as a feature that…

Because PHP is a amazing backed language for making CRUD apps. Always has been. It has great web frameworks, a good gradual typing story and is the easiest language to deploy. You …

It also assumes free market competition which the AI space is already only in a very limited degree. The whole business strategy for those companies is to be the one big monopolist…

> it's more likely that there's some social work that needs to be done, and that obsessing over running doom on curl is not a very productive use of one's time in a critical econom…

I wish I were less observant. My neurodivergency makes me feel actual distress over those corners. I am not being dramatic. It sucks.

Iran is currently exporting more oil to China than before the war. That is a fact. Not sure what your point is. The rebuilding was referring to the destruction of Iranian infrastru…

The average person is pretty empathetic. The oligarchs of the current Epstein-regime that start wars and fund genocide, not so much. They are trained to dehumanize people. Without …

For better or worse, well mostly worse, most of the software people use these days is either directly running in the browser or is electron based so running perfectly fine on Linux…

Iran is financially supporting both Hamas and Hezbollah so it has a degree of influence on these groups but it does not mean that they them. Oct 7th was planned by Hamas, specifica…

The genocide against the Palestinians has not started after October 7th though but long before the Islamic Republic of Iran even existed. In the Nakba of 1948 as much al 750k Pales…

Mossad has literally admitted to that. Let me even quote an Israeli newspaper: > On December 29, what is dubbed the Mossad X/Twitter account in Farsi encouraged Iranians to protest…

Many of these leaders decided to not hide underground but to become martyrs. It is really not an accomplishment to murder someone in their own house when they have not been hiding.…
