Trump losing would be an epic troll then. Holding out for almost 3 years only to see your only hope crumbling away.

I mean they’ll add a few days of extra buffer to the personnel shortage.

Your comparison between phones and VR/AR is reasonable but a bit different as when windows phones were discontinued, Microsoft had pretty much lost the phone os race. Also the windows phones sucked, I’ve used them…

IMO microsoft gave vr/ar a fair chance. They might have been early, but if we are eg. a full decade off must buy VR, then it might not be worth waiting.

There goes another “red line” without any meaningful response from russia.

They are technically correct in that it’s the developers fault that they tied themselves to a proprietary game engine.

In the other hand Godot was nowhere near mature when the slay the spire devs most likely started development. They would be dumb if they used unity for their next game 🤷

I’d guess that companies that failed to turn profit when money was cheap are most likely doomed. However not all of the hype companies are like that. Some could be barely profitable, but shareholder pressure might push them to heavier monetization practices.

To OP: this is a much clearer & better explanation for what I was trying to say.

This is an imperfect analogy, but think of updating between Windows 10 and 11 versus installing updates on windows 10 or win 11.

I have no experience with Fedora, but AFAIK at least in Ubuntu/Debian land, updates are installed from OS version specific package repositories. When the version of the OS is no longer supported, those repositories might not receive updates anymore.

EDIT: this is the main reason I have a rolling release distro on most of my personal machines. The package repos have the newest packages without having to update my OS major version every now and then.

I found steamdb.info. According to them Godot seems to be growing steadily.

During the past few years turkey has seemed to be such a pain from the western point of view, that I’m not surprised eg. EU would want to avoid depending on them for shipping goods.

Others like saudis seem just as bad, if not worse from western perspective, but they might be the least worst option on the way from asia to europe.

In many countries (incl. Finland where I live), third party charging stations are much more common than Superchargers. For example most large shopping malls have a bunch of charging stations, often above 100kW.

If you want a small phone, then look for rugged ones. There are a lot of options with screen sizes all the way down to sub 4". Finding one with android 12 or 13 might take some work, but they are out there.

After watching the video the main thought I have in my mind is that the whole issue could have been subverted by building two sets of executables. One with DRM and one without. The DRM free version could then be stored for potential future use. That way you wouldn’t have to necessarily maintain the build environment.

Obviously this wouldn’t have occurred to me if I was building the game, but I hope the companies learned as soon as they ran across the issue the first time.

I sure hope none of those cracks were licensed in a way that would cause trouble for unauthorized commercial use 🤷

I guess that could be explained with the giant ego. Due to being so smart, he understands the situation better than the mainstream media. The easiest opposing view to latch onto would then be Russian propaganda.

EDIT: I have several friends who are also smart, and as such must question all msm news. As a result their worldview is left with a void that is usually filled with more fringe opinions.

I’d guess that if he was an agent, he isn’t acting voluntarily. Instead he’s probably influenced by chinese and saudi money.

Another simpler, but just as plausible explanation could be that he’s basically a human with a giant ego that bounces from one incident to another. None of this seems very planned. Instead he seems to be acting on a whim.

My bad. You don’t need a rocket to launch stuff.

I mean you could stay in space, if you were to reach escape velocity. Heat might be an issue though.

Tweaking the nuke to achieve a specific orbit might prove to be difficult. Also it’s not like Blue Origin has nukes right?

Their government has been trying to keep the issue of aid in the public interest for a reason. Sometimes they might go too far, but I think people underestimate the fear a country would experience if they were highly dependent on outside help. Especially if it wasn’t guaranteed to continue due to changes in the political leadership in the other countries.
