the best game ever

Long term is where things can fall apart. Yeah, currently stuff goes well to Putin, but the moment the Russians realize their emperor is naked, Russia will have a very bad time, with the worst thing that can happen to them is a Balkanization with all of its nastiness.

I have already done my part on my Mastodon account.

My main concern is the awful moderation of Meta’s services. Bullying, celebration of loss of rights and violence committed towards of protected minorities; and outright misinformation are allowed. All while the very same people duped the moderation AI to flag any criticism of said hate speech as the real hate speech because false reportings. Facebook, instagram, etc. are notorious for letting big far-right accounts get away with hate speech and defamation, and I don’t really think it’ll be different on Threads for very long.

EDIT: In the meanwhile, I remembered screenshots of showing this exact moderation problem already happening on Threads, but to a way lesser degree, than on Facebook so far. Maybe this will make them getting booted from even the instances that didn’t originally plan to defederate them.

Yeah, there’s a good chance he’s either a naïve moron that thinks Meta has good intentions, or a techbro that soyfaces at any proprietary technology that has incorporated a trendy technology.

It used to be cool, but then they added pay to win elements, because of course.

There, I made that kind of comment more useful!

Also GPU drivers.

If you’re mad at NVidia for their closed-source drivers, then remember that ARM seldom makes their Linux drivers available for free, so you have to either have to deal with absolutely no GPU driver while the CPU does the graphics rendering (might not be a big deal on a NAS though), or with open source drivers that are less capable than the Nouveau drivers and even fiddlier to install. The ARM Mali driver issue is so bad I was legit thinking on a solution to run the Android binary blobs (which at least are available by ripping them off from the Android kernel) on regular Linux, a lot of function call redirects would likely take care of that issue.

Walter Bright had a lot of back and forth over the Digital Mars C compiler and Symantec.

It’s simple, I saw it for the con what it is from the very beginning.

That solution is janky and slow as hell. I’d rather just embed it into my own software, which is mostly done, except it doesn’t find functions as functions, but as nil value.

D.

It has C ABI compatibility, so it should work. But as others wrote, I might have messed up my Lua script.

No, I’m developing my own engine.

Eventually they will join, but will take a while…

It just takes a bit of time, then people will evetually come to the fediverse.

Not really, a big driving factor behind making devices irreparable is to uphold the illusion of infinite growth.

Depends on what you’re doing. Functional programming has its own downsides, especially once you want to write interactive programs, which often depend on global states. Then you either have to rely on atoms, which defeat the purpose of the functional programming, or pass around the program state, which is janly and can be slow.

I personally go multi paradigm. Simpler stuffs are almost functional (did not opt for consting everything due to performance issues), GUI stuff is OOP, etc.

Very concerning word use from you.

The issue art faces isn’t that there’s not enough throughput, but rather there’s not enough time, both to make them and enjoy them.

Reddit is letting you to use its platform for money laundering.
