Love retro tech. Love cyberpunk. Love learnin' an' readin'. Simple as.

"developed skills"

I mean, that's a weak argument for them to make anyway. The only ones to benefit from this new skill are the owners, not the slaves. Hard to say "I learned how to harvest cotton well" is worth being torn away from your family and brutalized repeatedly because they've decided a whole group of people are just property.

I'm glad the Confederacy lost the war. But I fear that it will, after all these centuries, win the peace.

Some alternatives to Unity with:

  • Godot - GDScript, C#, 2D/3D
  • Defold - Lua, 2D/3D
  • Stride - C#, 2D/3D
  • Bevy - Rust, 2D/3D
  • Armory 3D - Haxe, C, C++, Rust, WebAssembly, JavaScript, Logic-Nodes, 3D
  • O3DE - Lua, Script Canvas, 3D
  • Flax Engine - C#, C++, Visual Scripting, 3D

And Unreal, of course, if you trust big corps.

“And they asked for it, they did ask for it,” Baier noted. “And then they went to DOJ to subpoena you. Why not just hand them over then?”

“Because I had boxes,” Trump said. “I want to go through the boxes and get all my personal things out. I don’t want to hand that over to NARA yet. And I was very busy as you’ve sort of seen.”

He went on to address claims in the indictment that he told an aide to move the boxes to other locations after telling lawyers to say he had fully complied: “Before I send the boxes over, I have to take all of my things out.”

“These boxes were interspersed with all sorts of things,” Trump said. “Golf shirts, clothing, pants, shoes.”

Reality truly is stranger than fiction.

I'm hoping for some kind of "multi-reddit" style system that lets us combine the communities from different instances.

Another attempt by authoritarians to create more chilling effects on scientific research.

Disinformation (about vaccines, elections, minority groups, reality itself) is absolutely killing people. We gotta figure this stuff out.

But... his golf shirts! Doesn't everyone store their clothing in boxes of classified documents? I mean, where else could they possibly go?

(I wonder what version of this story he'll tell in court, I'm sure it'll be fun to hear about.)

Ahhh, now this is funny. Honestly made my day brighter.

As bad as the performance seems to be (30 FPS on current consoles?), I think they should offer DLSS, FSR 2, and Intel's XeSS. Invite everyone to the table, they're practically printing money already with preorders. Exclusivity is ridiculous.

They forcibly removed (and banned, at least in some cases) the mods. It's really wild.

Harming a child like that is probably the worst thing one person can ever do to another.

I'm going to miss the way reddit was. And I'm sad for what it's become.

Hubris.

My week has been a mixed bag. Spending a lot of time with my family (been great!), but having to spend a lot of money to have some big (and old/rotting/dangerous) trees cut down has been more stressful than I expected.

This is exactly what I was thinking. How many incredibly sketchy, scammy, or outright invasive ad scripts are we supposed to tolerate? For me the answer is "none" and I'm quite happy that way.
