I'm on GKE. The hosts and control plane are managed for me. All I need to do is build/test/security scan images and then promote/deploy the image (via Helm) when it goes out to prod. Using config management and introduci

Valorant, CS:GO's closest competitor, is in Unreal and looks similar. These games are going for high framerates and running on the majority of PCs, even ones with integrated graphics. Switching engines wouldn't do them any favors,

I think the big upgrades in Source 2 are around tooling. The Valve Hammer editor for CS:GO is a glorified Quake map editor. I think it can even still edit Quake maps.

Valve ships all their games on Linux and Mac, so you don't need to run Windows.

These terminology changes date back to the George Floyd protests, and instead of getting action to solve the actual problem, we got blog posts from GitHub about changing the default branch name, so they can feel like they're doing some

With good reason? Tesla doesnt seem to give a shit about the safety concerns of other people on the road, and a half-assed "full self driving" system that requires careful monitoring is never going to work. People tune things out

And it's still discussed on Twitter. Elon knows he has a captive audience and they won't leave no matter how poorly he treats its users or employees.

How is it glacial? This is resolved with a copyright infringement lawsuit. Filing the suit is entirely on them.

Returnal which came out April 2021 and the PC version just released, technically Destiny 2: Lightfall (if that counts) was day-and-date. Sony still has an incentive to sell hardware and keep games exclusive though. Unlike Microsoft, they do

Sony's actually made an effort to get many newer games ported to PC, and Steam Deck verified.

Sony didn't buy an existing multi-platform game franchise and make it exclusive with though. Their most recent purchase was Bungie and Destiny remains multiplatform. Of God of War and Horizon, the first was from an internally founded s

Flatpak is pretty great if you want to containerize things you install or are using an immutable system. The Steam Deck supports Flatpak and it's how most people install things outside of Steam.

It's a compromise on anonymity, not privacy. But I agree with it, it's a compromise on anonymity because it avoids having to use another identifier and another social graph. My entire extended family uses Signal, and I didn't

Fedora basically works out of the box, but Silverblue is an immutable system that you can modify by layering packages on top of the image. It's really cool, and probably The Right Way™ to handle system upgrades, but its got a bit of a

This is the loophole. It's what Mozilla did (Foundation created Corporation, and moved employees there), and even IKEA is technically owned by a nonprofit (Stichting INGKA Foundation).

Minter had a cameo as the author in Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, which is an incredible touch.

This makes a ton of sense because a lot of Unity's business is in their ad platform, not engine licensing. Horizon Worlds is written in Unity, and it gives them full control over their hardware/software platform. It would do a lot

It's not even correct, the PlayStation division is Sony Interactive Entertainment, SIE. Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) was the EverQuest developer. They were sold off years ago and are now known as Daybreak.

The agreement with the Russian Government over "Terrorism" cases is not just speculation, but announced by both parties.

I imagine widespread catfishing fraud on dating sites. Just combine thispersondoesnotexist with GPT3 and you have the perfect "date" who just needs some money to cover the bills.

Not only that but they've made suspicious ties with the Kremlin that resulted in it being unblocked in Russia and have a mysterious source of funding after TON collapsed.

This is also very similar to the plot of the game SOMA. There's actually a puzzle around instantiating a consciousness under the right circumstances so he'll give you a password.

I started around the same time (Debian Woody), it's certainly come a long way from SuperTux and Battle for Wesnoth. Windows is still on my gaming PC, mostly due to anticheat issues with games like Hunt, Destiny, and Battlefield. I&#x27

Well the Newton was the second attempt by Apple, first they spun off General Magic and then pivoted when GM built hype and Apple remained a minority owner.

I hope we're finally entering an era where game stories can be treated with respect, like what happened to comics a decade or so ago. But I'm not sure if this will make the medium explode more than it has. I'm a millennial an
