Is MonoGame still mono based? It seems like it’s going to be held back significantly unless they migrate to modern .net (core)
- Comment on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 loses Game of the Year from the Indie Game Awards 3 weeks ago:
GenAI being bad or not is irrelevant for this issue.
If they had a rule that you had to wear purple polka dotted pants and they found out you didn’t, they are within their rights to strip the awards.

- Comment on OpenAI says dead teen violated TOS when he used ChatGPT to plan suicide - Ars Technica 1 month ago:
To my legal head cannon, this boils down to if OpenAi flagged him and did nothing.
If they flagged him, then they knew about the ToS violations and did nothing, then they should be in trouble.
If they don’t know, but can demonstrate that they will take action in this situation, then, in my opinion, they are legally in the clear…

Same brand != same tier of battery.
There are different levels of battery quality. Adding a $1 battery versus $5 battery isn’t a big difference to OEMS who are buying millions to put in their 1000$ widget. Additionally economy of scale, and they want their remote to last a certain time so they pick a battery that will meet that standard.
For retailing sales, users want cheap batteries and aren’t really concerned with the batteries actual longevity or quality.
Check out project farm, I believe he reviewed some batteries a little while ago. You’ll see a massive difference between all of them

What’s wrong with Chicago? I moved to the area a year ago and everyone is pretty nice…
If you have a complaint about Chicagoan food, I think Jepsons Mallort is a bigger complaint than deep dish.
I don’t know how you can compare deep dish, a style of pizza, to lasagna. They are much different…

- Comment on How come glasses for hyperopia/farsightedness (reading glasses) are there on the shelves, but glasses for myopia require a prescription? 4 months ago:
That’s what people in the US mostly do.
You are still getting a glasses prescription, but since you are purchasing from the eye doctor who examined you, the “need” for a prescription is abstracted away.
If you called and asked for a written prescription, they would give it to you

- Comment on linus tech tip 5 months ago:
He was “absolved” by a company that he hired to investigate.
The situations mostly come down to he said/she said, so nothing for the company to find…
The result of the investigation was that there wasn’t any evidence, not disproving or proving the allegations
