   Also Gawker (the company though, not the specific blog) caused "Gamergate" If I remember correctly, when Zoe Quinn boyfriend complained about her behaviour, and accused her of having a relationship with an editor of Kotaku (that i

   Because I already know: C, C++, Obj-C, C#, Php, Lua, x86 ASM, ARM ASM, Linoleum (some ASM-like esoteric languagE), BASIC (not VB), Java, Python, JS, MushCODE (it is derived from LISP), SQL and some application specific scripting languages.

   I am from Brazil, and here Facebook is a problem too... We even have our supreme court doing blatantly inconstitutional things because they are upset with Facebook (and Whatsapp). Also during the Gamergate debacle, there was some high profi

   Sometimes I wonder if I should learn COBOL just so maybe I can get my first real programming job. (and no, I am not joking...)

   So, I am one of the cofounders of Kidoteca, where we got some family members to invest and we released a bunch of games. 1. Kidoteca never turned a profit, mind you over time the revenue is not terrible, but investors lost their money basic

   In Brazil this is a GREAT reason to NOT use it. In fact phone operators for a while tried to ban whatsapp here, SMS prices in Brazil are just nuts (it is normal for an SMS cost fifty cents or so, sometimes even more, a full SMS conversation

    To be honest wine is so awesome it makes games run better even on Windows. On another computer I had, with the supremely buggy nVidia Optimus, SimCity 4 and Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura both worked correctly only with Wine DLLs

    This is a subject I've been following for a while. Basically any content that is controversial for any reason, be it porn, government criticism in china or unpopular opinions, makes VISA and Mastercard wary that it will be bad PR for t

    Legally, Youtube is not a publisher. If it was it would lose the Section 230 protections, that is the whole point of that law, it is separate who is a publisher (like a news company) and who is just a "dumb wire" (a ISP for exampl

    What about companies like mine, that run their own servers, to do stuff that is a legal requirement, but don't have money to pay RHEL?

    Theoretically, CentOS was the RHEL source release. Now that this changed, I wonder, do RHEL sources are still available 100% identical to their binary? Or the announcement yesterday just broke GPL2 compliance?

    It is also not community-based anymore anyway. So now it is just "Operating System", maybe they should rename it IBMBetaOS or something like that.

    Krak DID got hit with all of these, it is still standing, and the people inside still kept fighting. Same for some other castles in Syria from my research out of curiosity. But I assume that people wanted to take the castles, not turn them

    This made me remember something about castles... I was wondering, how useful are ancient castles in modern battles? Armchair generals all over the planet kept prattling about them being useless because modern weaponry is awesome and all...

    I love this engine, sadly it got stuck in MP-only land, making SP games with it is just too hard. When I was in college I did one of my projects using it, to great results (also I went overboard with the easy to use engine and made even the

    "Just cut off internet" indeed would work... but it would work for a lot of things. But saying that is same saying that a normal bank is useless because the government can just "just cut off the power" and thus the bank

    Where I live (Brazil) they use their normal patty for the quarter pounder... it is a completely useless sandwich to be honest, the quarter pounder is almost identical to the cheeseburger, except the cheeseburger is even smaller somehow. It

    The problem with this theory is that non-state organizations that did that, existed for a while, but were defeated in combat, or by threat of combat (ie: the threat of combat made them change to mount a defense) by states. For example: Duri
