- Comment on System76 desktop environment COSMIC alpha now available to try 3 months ago:
System76 have today released the first alpha preview for you to try out COSMIC…
- Comment on LaTeX Master Race 3 months ago:
I mean, having readable lin alg equations is rather useful.
- Comment on Destiny creators Bungie lay off 220 people and form new studio within Sony to stave off financial ruin 3 months ago:
This is despite how much revenue is generated from their cosmetics?
Amazing the level of risk businessmen can take and force developers to chew when it comes crashing in…
- Comment on Dragon Age: The Veilguard Is Verified For Steam Deck 3 months ago:
Nice to see AAA developers targeting it, though considering what’s continued to happen to Dragon Age since after Origins… not sure I’m excited for it.
- Comment on Perfection 4 months ago:
Sort of a testament (ha) of the stability of it’s niche.
- Comment on Twitch banned Dr Disrespect after viewing messages sent to a minor, say former employees 4 months ago:
Not surprising - dude is toxic af. Of course he’s a pedophile.
- Comment on With a Nintendo Switch 2 on the way, I hope Valve make a Steam Deck 2 6 months ago:
I wouldn’t be surprised if they wait till next year to make any announcement - they just recently launched the OLED, and I’m sure they’re happy to wait for new AMD chips.
- Comment on North Korea is evading sanctions by animating Max and Amazon shows 6 months ago:
It can certainly block the sale of software and services. For example:
Customers that purchase Microsoft 365 may assign a Microsoft 365 license, respectively, to a user that resides anywhere in the world, except for Cuba, Iran, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Sudan, and Syria.
Kind of hard to educate when you don’t have access to McHill.
- Comment on North Korea is evading sanctions by animating Max and Amazon shows 6 months ago:
I’m honestly surprised North Koreans have the education to animate in today’s market. Like, who trained them to use the software needed? How did they buy the software?
- Comment on US will veto Palestinian request for full UN membership at security council vote 7 months ago:
Seems super short sighted for the US - would a two state solution (which, according to the US, is the only solution) not mean giving Palestine UN membership?
Also, this was a vote to basically allow discussion on membership to move forward to the full assembly, not an actual vote on allowing membership here and now.
- Comment on Biden announces new plan to cancel student loans for 30m borrowers 7 months ago:
Not sure discharged loans work that way, but Biden’s SAVE plans already eliminated interest for the most vulnerable, and already promised erasure after 20 years.
And after 20 or 25 years, any remaining debt gets erased.
Not sure that’s something that will be made permanent with the way congress works…
- Comment on Gearbox Publishing Rebrands as Arc Games After Embracer's Deal With Take-Two 7 months ago:
Yep yep.
Interestingly, despite founding the publishing arm in 2015, it’s also apparently never published a Borderlands game…
- Comment on Gearbox Publishing Rebrands as Arc Games After Embracer's Deal With Take-Two 7 months ago:
Gearbox Publishing ≠ Gearbox Software
With them now separating, legally I don’t think they would want to advertise a game they no longer publish.
- Comment on Fifty Things you can do with a Software Defined Radio 📻 8 months ago:
Still trying to get mine to read my water meter - I can see all of the condos around me, but not mine 🙃
- Comment on Helldivers 2 updates could bring back the first game's sneaky teleporting Illuminate faction 8 months ago:
Kind of cool that they’re using the broadcasts in a way similar to Elite Dangerous
