I completely agree that business ghouls doing business ghoul things make studios make worse games… doesn’t really affect my point though… studios are not making games based on a “bar” set by the consumers as described in the original post…

They are part of the studios… point was “the bar” is “fun/interesting”. The vast majority of people that purchase games don’t have a bar as defined by the comment I originally replied to.

Studios can make whatever they want. People aren’t putting in orders.

Sort of alarming how many upvotes this has without anybody providing any reference at all. We have enough privacy problems to worry about without people posting unsubstantiated claims :/

I can’t find anything about it. Claim seems sus tbh

Where is the info about this?

Some rust proponents having this attitude is probably part of the problem.

I think rust has good ideas and may even become the default systems language in the mid-term. I find it irritating that there is a very vocal subset of rust proponents that tend to insist that every project in every language needs to be rewritten in rust immediately. I suspect that is also why other people are down on rust.

MMA has rules that don’t exist in real fights that almost certainly affect the dominance of styles

Kitty is the terminal emulator, the program that provides an interface. The shell you are using if you haven’t changed anything is probably bash. So you would use duneshell instead of bash, but still in kitty

It’s better today than it was a year ago, and WAY better than it was 3 years ago, and is still improving. There are a few categories of games where you are likely to have problems though.

• competitive multiplayer games [kernel level anticheat, that one will probably remain a problem]
• very old games [getting better all the time, because wine is getting better all the times]
• very new AAA games [they mostly use one of a handful of game engines, so they tend to get fixed in batches]

I would say whether linux is ready for (windows) gaming depends on is different per person predicated on:

1. What categories of games you play
2. Any specific problematic game that is a dealbreaker for you

For me, I tend to play some older games, and there are a few that don’t work well. I don’t want to boot windows, so I just decide I can wait for it to get there for them.

For some people, “ready” means will run every windows program as if running on windows. We’re still a ways off from that, if we ever get there (it’s a moving target, as windows is still being developed…)

That is a very rudimentary understanding of the system that doesn’t always pan out in a particular time frame or due to external factors.

1. It takes time for that effect to occur
2. It doesn’t take into account barriers to entry, of which there are many for food
3. It doesn’t take into account that there are are actually a small number of companies that own the bulk of our food supply chain and it’s in their financial interest to keep prices high for things that are perceived as luxury

It’s straight up just because people will pay the price they’re asking…

Usually it doesn’t matter what abstractions you choose when you try to factor them to support hypothetical future work, because chances are you incorrectly anticipate future needs.

In other words, generic code that only supports one use case will almost certainly have to be deconstructed to allow a good generic implementation for 2 use cases, so it is better to just write simple code and factor code out when you can see the real commonalities.

In other, other words, KISS, YAGNI

I hate reading code like this. It means that there is a bunch of object or global state that could be getting modified by anything all over the place that I can’t see just by looking at the method. In other words, if you say you understand this method, it is because you are making assumptions about other code that might be wrong.

I’ll take a 30 line pure function over a web of methods changing member state every time.

One thing to note about using forks is that they have no chance of being on corporate software whitelists, while firefox does. For that reason, adding to firefox numbers is potentially important. I’ve already seen companies wanting to only allow chrome/edge/safari (even while they officially support firefox …)

Some of it is good and some of it is bad.

For instance it basically says that installing arch manually to learn is pointless and you should spend that time taking an operating systems class. This is confusing two completely different kinds of knowledge as well as time investments 2 or 3 orders of magnitude apart.

The site is also presenting opinions but using language that makes it sound like it is presenting facts.

Overall, I don’t think it’s a great site. It basically says “there are many differing opinions on various topics, but mine are the correct ones and you should treat me as an authority because I made a website.”

Not a fan/10

Probably because it has only existed for 2 years

Is there a reason you think Forgejo is only for smaller projects?
