The self-contained electron app works better for most people I think.

Didn’t they effectively kill the oculus rifts with required logins and no more support?

I believe it’s 1% for access to the “entire post-open ecosystem”, rather than 1% per project which would be unreasonable. So you could use one or thousands of projects under the Post-open banner, but still pay 1%.

It will take years to develop the post-open ecosystem to be something worth spending that much on.

Also chromosome tests aren’t a foolproof indication of sex anyway. People can have one set or another while still having the properties associated with the other sex, so it doesn’t really work as a definitive measure. The question is reasonable until you examine it and it’s motives.

The question subtly suggests that if she had a Y chromosome then she has some biological advantage and therefore doesn’t deserve the medal she earned. Does she actually have an advantage from the Y chromosome? Are we going to ensure through DNA testing that all competitors are going to be exactly equal by genetics? If so, we’re going to have 8 clones of Usain Bolt competing for the 100m sprint. Michael Phelps arguably had a biological advantage by having hyper flexible shoulders, are we disqualifying those biological advantages? Of course not, so what do they actually mean when asking those questions about the chromosome? They don’t have meaningful answers to the questions I raise, they just want to add fuel to the fires of the culture war for their own political means.

This really got me, thank you!

I’ve not built anything beyond simple scripts in rust but I’m looking at some of the cosmic codebase to see what I can do.

Yes I should have said “employed full-time” probably. This also doesn’t account for the self-employed who have to manage it themselves too rather than having their employer do it.

If you’re British and employed your employer is legally required to provide a private pension I believe. You also get a state pension if you’ve been paying national insurance (most people will get this taken out of pay cheques before you ever see the money, same as income tax). Some employers offer “matching contributions” up to a certain amount. For example if you decide you want to send £100 per month into your private pension, your employer will also do the same, so your pension gets £200. These contributions are tax free so it’s a tax-efficient way to save money when compared to privately investing where you’d have to invest from your income, which has already been taxed and then potentially have to pay capital gains tax on profits.

That works until all* games come with root level anti cheat. It was the same with micro transactions which people still defend despite being utter shit.

• Realistically this will never be 100% but it will be enough of the mass market AAA games like CoD etc to mean that if you functionally want to play a game made in the last X number of years you will need to accept this or stop playing games altogether. I think most people will continue to play games. Most people will continue to install root level anti cheat, knowingly or otherwise, and all of them will get fucked by an exploit of that software. They may never even know about it.

Helldivers 2 does the same thing. If this continues it will be extremely advisable to move any non-gaming use-cases to a different computer as you have no idea what the “anti-cheat” is doing with that level of authority over your computer.

I would be curious how this actually works in practice. What counts as “in progress”? Encounters? Plot points? Knowledge that a goblin has? If all of those things are “in progress” and you can only have so many things in the “in progress” column, I feel like you’d very quickly have to break that rule and then everything becomes “in progress”.

Literally just bought what I believe to be last generation’s X13 on ebay for half the price of the new one. It’s been great so far, especially with the power efficiency of Ryzen CPUs. My one complaint is the soldered RAM, which judging by the new lineup is getting phased out, thankfully.

I’ve been programming for too long, my brain just autocorrected the typo so initially didn’t get the joke…

I’m no linguist but it’s all basically unwritten rules and conventions and the examples you gave are wrong in the sense that they break other rules. For example noone asks “read you manga”, they say “Do you read manga?” In which case “I don’t” is fine, but “I readn’t” isn’t. In short it can’t be done with every verb, and as a native speaker I’m not aware of an explicit rule that governs which verbs can and can’t have contractions.

Again, this existed before AI. Typo squatting, supply chain attacks, automated package uploads, CI pipeline infection, they’re all known attack vectors. That’s not to say this isn’t a concern, just that it’s a known risk and the addition of “AI” doesn’t, to my eyes, increase that risk. If your SSH keys don’t require a password, you have taken the decision to make those keys less secure but more convenient to use. That’s pretty much always the tradeoff in security.

The risk here is slightly overblown or misrepresented. Just because a fork exists doesn’t mean that anyone has even read it, let alone run it on their system. For this to be a real threat they would have to publish packages with identical or similar names (ie typo-squatting) to public package repositories which this article didn’t have any information on but which is a known problem long before AI. The level of obfuscation and number of repos affected is impressive but ultimately unlikely to have widespread impact to anyone besides GitHub.

I think for most people it’s whatever you got used to first. I agree the hatred the GUIs get is overblown. I would always recommend people learn the command line but if you want to use a GUI, go for it, doesn’t affect me unless your commits are bad, in which case the CLI wouldn’t have helped anyway.

This comes up a lot with Bethesda games and I don’t understand it in a lot of ways. You (maybe not you personally but someone) paid full AAA game price for this boring game and you didn’t enjoy it. Why would mods bring you back to something you didn’t enjoy when there are actually great games out there waiting to be played instead for far less money and don’t require mods to make it bearable?

My friend and I are looking to make a game and the general consensus has been that perforce is still better than git LFS, so we’re setting up a perforce server. What is it about SVN and perforce that you miss? I’ve only ever used git professionally for VCS so I’m finding perforce’s always-online and exclusive-checkouts model just very strange (though I understand the need for it when working with binary files).

I agree it’s a low-to-mid tier phone but as I’m only using my FP4 for calls, discord, email, browsing, youtube etc it’s perfectly fine. Most people don’t need a top tier phone these days.
