Congrats on releasing a game! It’s a large undertaking to code in general let alone release something, so kudos for sticking it through! Out of curiosity, how did you determine system specs for your game? I have a 2D SHMUP that I’m writing and was trying to find a solid answer online, and it seems it ranges from “take a wild guess” to “hope you like excel spreadsheets” lol.
Actionscript, my beloved
I hate how YouTube seems to intentionally show salacious ads if you opt out of ad personalization. I get a ton of Temu spam despite not purchasing anything from that app or even having it on my phone, and the ads themselves usually feature scantily-clad women that takes up 70% of the screen. I’ve made a habit of just opening up the comments section and keeping them open the entire duration of the video. It really feels like YouTube/Google/Alphabet is saying “oh, you don’t want people around you to think you’re a perv? Let us collect more data about you so you can save face in public when you use our app at the gym or at work.”
But Oracle will be leading towards an “offer” to overlook earlier unlicensed software if they agree to sign up to the new subscription model, Biggs said.
So…Oracle is just adopting the mafia mentality to accomplish this? Yeesh.
The tshirt looks really cool
Real ones remember vlemmy.net. One of the first instances post-Reddit migration to go away suddenly
Just say you don’t like Ubuntu lol
He switched to Debian
That’s what I’m hoping for, got burned in some Blender courses a few years ago when I didn’t do some due diligence lol. Thanks!
Anyone know how current this is? Is there some sort of community that can help troubleshoot if needed?
Same issue on latest version of LibreWolf
Eventually Linus himself will come and personally re-write your cfg file for you
You probably shouldn’t be accessing a linux distro’s website from mobile
I don’t think it’s good to hand-wave a website’s poor user experience and instead blame the user’s device. The fact of the matter is that Debian’s website is not as responsive as it could (imo, should) be and results in a bad user experience. With mobile traffic being responsible for over 55% of the internet’s traffic, it can be generally assumed a user’s first experience learning about a distro will be on a mobile device. If that first impression is bad, that can spell bad news for that distro’s adoption/onboarding.
No prob! I think Ars Technica had the best writeup imo: https://arstechnica.com/security/2024/04/what-we-know-about-the-xz-utils-backdoor-that-almost-infected-the-world/
In a nutshell, a backdoor was intentionally planted by a malicious actor in xz Utils, an open-source data compression utility widely used in Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. This discovery was made by Andres Freund, a developer and engineer working on Microsoft’s PostgreSQL offerings. He was troubleshooting performance problems on a Debian system. Specifically, SSH logins were consuming excessive CPU cycles and generating errors with Valgrind, a memory debugging tool. Through sheer luck and Freund’s careful eye, he eventually discovered that these issues were the result of updates made to xz Utils. Upon closer inspection, he found that updates to xz Utils were the result of a maliciously inserted backdoor. The backdoor, present in xz Utils versions 5.6.0 and 5.6.1, manipulated the sshd executable, allowing anyone with a predetermined encryption key to upload and execute arbitrary code on affected devices.
Never heard of this, but it looks like a FOSS version of stellarium? Way cool, and the site gives nostalgic Web 1.0 vibes
Finally!! I’ve been waiting for this so I can officially ditch edge
Kinda surprised there isn’t, ngl
Unrelated but the additional padding at the bottom of each page is an unexpected QOL feature I didn’t know I needed.
