The issue is they want to run rootkits and malware instead of games.

Not sorry. Siege, Fortnite, Valorant, all of these games require kernel level access to Windows to run, and the publishers refuse to support Windows.

The only reason I’d ever play games like this in the past is due to peer pressure from friends to play these shitty games together with a bunch of sweats, cheaters and an overall generally toxic community. Especially Siege.

Social peer pressure goes both ways. And I’ve basically peaced out on any of these games in my friends group. That was enough to end that game for game nights, and as those games fade from our memory. I make sure what little memory of it remains is the true tainted and awful form from which they originated.

If you need a kernel level anti-cheat for your game, and nothing else will protect it. Your game is shit, your development cycle is shit, your company is shit, your community is shit, and why would I ever want to play a shit game with shit people from a shit company that forces devs to work under a shit development cycle?

For a split second I thought this was in the US.

And honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if someone told me this is already Law in the US.

Which they claim is illegal and a violation of the DMCA

If you can own nothing, then nothing is theft.

‘LinkedIn’

LinkedIn is as much Social Media as talking with your manager is Socializing.

It’s really plastic and fake feeling there, more so than anywhere else.

Grub and GrubHub

No. Why pay money to make the workforce young and immortal, when they can just replace you with cheaper and more easily manipulated workers in 20-30 years?

We’re in the “dropping the act” phase of capitalism.

This is just standard monopoly-speak these days.

As both a MacOS and Linux user I agree with myself on the regular that Windows is shit.

I also wash my hands on the regular.

Great meme, very accurate.

Okay, this is obnoxious and all.

But what the hell is ‘narcing’?

It’s not terribly expensive or hard to do.

“Ron stood there with his Ron shirt.”

Make it deceptively easy to read.

It appears easy to read in a review of the code, but upon any further glance, to actually keep it up, the only one who can understand it is you.

Next week: EU to ban web browsing, for security.

Seriously, why is the EU such an insane flipflop, going from one side of the political spectrum to the other in as little as a few hours sometimes?

My brain after reading the title:

I agree. It’s refreshing after what Unity did.

But after what Unity did, it’s not surprising to see everyone on edge.

Trust in proprietary software will continue to drop as more companies do shady things like Google, Microsoft, and Unity do.

Godot is a good game engine, and so is GameMaker.

But given that Godot is FOSS, I suspect educators will begin to use Godot more than Gamemaker.

Didn’t he already write a public letter explaining how what they did does reveal ads, but that it was unfair because they went ad hunting and searched for ads on a page?

Boohoo, just because they over-searched to see it happen, means that it can and does happen.

This is a failure on your part, not theirs. This is how scientific research is conducted.

Not that you understand science or handling failure, Elon.

Okay but for more clarity sake. LINUX IS NOT UNIX. I don’t care how many certifications or random university teachers mix the two up, they’re wrong.

Linux has only one bit of history with Unix and that is the fact it was made because there was no easily accessible Unix source code for Linus and other students to use. Linus made a Unix-like os. Hence Lin-ux. But it’s not Unix. It doesn’t use any Unix source code. It’s not based on System V or any other official Unix version. Linux is Unix in name only. Its POSIX compliant and has a few POSIX certified distros, but it’s not Unix.

This fact is what made it so favorable to devs worldwide. Unix having his history as a proprietary operating system with a confusing license situation where AT&T would seemingly go sue happy at random made Unix scary and unfavorable.

Linux was built from the ground up. It had no such history. If Linux were Unix this couldn’t possibly have been true, and it certainly wouldn’t have gone on to take over the server and smart phone markets.

Linux is not Unix.

Unix is not Linux.

MacOS is not Linux.

BSD is not Linux.

I mean if I name them do I have to own the domain or…
