8·2 天前Pick a game engine. Godot is pretty sweet. Get started and follow a tutorial.
Choose whether you want to do 2D games or 3D. If 2D, start learning pixel art. If 3D. Learn 3d modelling software like blender. There is plenty to learn, but you can do it, so just start. Maybe pick a ridiculously small scope project to start and learn.
That’s great to hear. Congratulations on the pay rise. You’ve clearly got valuable, transferable soils.
It is hard to keep detached, as we never truly own it until it’s ours. Good to hear you got free hardware. It’s my favourite price.
China? Silk Road dude was distracted by 2 enforcement offices while several arrested and grabbed the laptop. If you’re doing things that draw that level of resourcing, that’s on you. I don’t think any civilian had a 9 person heist for a laptop in China… Unless you have a reference… But I doubt it…
Edit: oops. This is old. Hope you’re OK and things improved.
You’re grieving for what you built. It’s good to take pride and push for better. However, you don’t own it. They pay for your time and your expertise. Love your skills and the learning. If the environment stops being right for you, plot your escape at a time that suits. Companies make shit decisions, they have and always will. They sometimes lead you to believe you have influence while it benefits then with your commitment/engagement. When that no longer suits, its the end.
What you feel is valid, it’s good you have standards and care. It’s now time to understand work is generally an exploitative relationship. Protect yourself and understand you’re being used. Find a situation where being used feels good for now and good for your bank balance.
Appreciate the feedback.
I’ve seen it one other time. If you see it again, feel free to report it. It definitely helps get visibility of it.
Plus, probably filters out low value contributions. People on Codeberg are generally genuinely interested in a project and not chasing activity graphs/clout/CV padding.
I got reports on this. I’m personally not of a mind to remove it, but it does feel irrelevant to open source. It’s more a Linux sysadmin type thing.
I will say, cut down the spam. Any repeated similar musings within a week would be low value and I’d probably remove.
I personally don’t agree with your points and this wouldn’t be relevant to most peoples risk profile.
Worth reflecting on what others have said here. I think you’re worrying too much about something that will never be expolitable in standard usage and this is from someone who worries a lot about privacy.
Maybe if this is really important to you check out Tails OS which as far as I’m aware focusses on running in RAM and leaving minimal persistent state.
I’d have thought this a mid-level thing. Most seniors know the cost of complexity and KISS (Keep It simple Stupid).
They have in Windows and Linux, just not MacOS. That is if you actually read what you posted. Or was that point not conducive to you looking for a stick to hit Mozilla with? (And there are plenty available)
I found Samsung’s struggled after 1.5 years. I’m 3 years in on Pixel 6a. Less bloat really seems to help.
What phone would you recommend privacy wise?
7·3 个月前I’m quite impressed you’ve been running Windows 10 on a HDD. It was dog slow for me, especially starting up and how I started using Linux.
This is why you have requirements which are agreed upon and affect payment if not upheld. If you start being firmer, they might move quicker. 24 month lead team is bullshit.
Do they do testing? Is there no SLA on bug fixes and availability? That should be essential come renewal time.
I was glad when crypto hype died down and folk could buy graphics cards again.
Now this. They can fuck off.
Everyone turn your AI off in your search engine. Avoid AI, don’t encourage this shit. Bubble will pop quicker.
1·3 个月前So he’s capable enough to add new islands and content, but not change a trigger on how to save. One button. Same logic…
A buggy mod by someone who didn’t write it doesn’t mean it’s not possible. Many mods are of poor standard and don’t have access to the same code or the facilitate a way to change something, so they often have to work around whatever APIs are exposed.
It is a dark pattern. You can like a game and someone and still be able to be critical of a game design decision they make. Not everyone is good or bad. A hero or villain. No one is perfect.
I guess so, you just cannot quit midway through a day without losing progress or sleeping early and losing a day. There is a negative cost that forces to play to when the dev chooses rather than you.
Great game, great developer, but it is a dark pattern.
This one is a fair point.
Some games do create a need to depend on some. For example, in Old School Runescape, you make a decision in a quest and rely on someone who made a different decision. You cannot change it and you do depend on them. So they may feel obliged to reciprocate. The obligation is created due to a game design decision rather than because of an intrinsic decision of players.
Some games are set in such a way where you cannot of progress without assistance. New players can get locked out of progression. Maybe this could be relevent in those cases.
The years are on the first few, but not after? It would help with context to have years on each.
Feels very AI generated.
