It's not a weird take. It can be valuable to see how a certain demographic differs from the rest and how big an outlier big tech might be in a number of ways. Do you even care about the data or are you just here to protect your weird U

Is it really unfair if such a small number of people are employed by big tech? https://www.bls.gov/emp/tables/employment-by-major-industry-... How many people actually benefit from these companies? How much do sta

Definitely get the SSD. It will literally transform the experience. I don't know how people stand HDDs in Macs. Every one I've tried feels unusably slow by comparison.

More than double at least until Windows 11. You could get 2008 era systems to run Windows 10 fairly decently assuming you replaced the HDD with an SSD.

This is one of the reasons why masks are so important and why they don't need to be 100% effective. Just reducing the amount of viral load could turn a serious infection into something you might barely notice. edit: Imagine this being

Now, yes, but it wouldn't have so much corporate backing now without all the hobbyist contributors before. And even now there are so many OSS projects, so many core libraries that entire industries and businesses are reliant on which

Even the purest of intentions can't justify by itself any particular decision or action taken. The decision or action itself must be evaluated on its own merits. Or you find yourself excusing everybody from abusive partners to dictator

And yet none of it would be possible without all the emulation of all the other parts of the OS. You need more than emulating DX10/11/12 to get games to run. Valve is standing on the shoulders of giants here. The original comment

I feel like you're unfairly underplaying all the hard work and success of Wine. None of this would be possible without it. It allowed a lot of games to work on Linux that didn't have native ports. Proton and SteamOS are bridging

Am I wrong in thinking the only thing we're missing for a rich ecosystem of browsers is a modular, independent Javascript runtime/interpreter similar to Java? Java has a bunch of JVMs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki

This wasn't that unusual though? The PS2 contains the PS1's CPU and uses it for I/O when it isn't being used for backwards compatibility with PS1 games. The PS3 contained the CPU/GPU of the PS2 in early versions for

Addressed here: http://www.ibiblio.org/harris/500milemail-faq.html You might want to ask yourself why you're so bitter and critical of others with that conclusion.

Except for the original menu UI which is unmatched in atmosphere even today. It's the one thing that keeps me using the old RA2 instead.

What the fuck are you talking about? What does that have to do with what we're talking about? These things are not fucking comparable. We're talking about something and I think it's helpful to have everything explicitly state

Anybody who believes anything they say now is a fool. Every developer would have to go out of their way to track the same thing Unity is tracking to ensure that Unity isn't literally lying to them about how many installs and how much i

I've installed Deus Ex probably 30+ times since I first played it at launch. Hell, sometimes I'll install it, decide not to play it, uninstall it, then reinstall it a week later. I've reinstalled it like three times this mont

This begins from the frame that failure is bad. But why? Failure means an opportunity for learning, for improving, for finding a better solution. I'd rather accept failure as an integral part of the process. You can't figure out w

It's not necessarily about the pricing. It's how the pricing is determined. 5% of revenue is concrete. You can make a business plan and plan for the future based on that. With Unity's new pricing structure, it's impossib

I think it's absurd that Unity can push a new pricing scheme on existing customers regardless of circumstance and essentially little to no warning. Games are in development for years and they're basically telling people 3 months b

But one that has to be implemented from scratch by every developer. It's not universal. You can't just redefine shit because you don't like achievements.
