I still think it’s crazy that the same guy who created Wikipedia also founded Fandom, and I believe is still involved. Considering what Wikipedia is and its utility, it almost seems like an incompatible ideology to have anything to do with both at the same time. I guess he’s got to make money somehow…
Meanwhile, Xbox Series S/X:
This gives off Twitch Plays Pokemon energy. I love it.
I’ve been following this saga since the headlines were prefixed with “Teen that created the Elon private jet tracker…”. I wouldn’t be surprised to find out he’s now been married 50 years and long-retired. I’ve lost track of time.
So…does this mean the cage match is still on?
I still need to get around playing the DLC but I feel like I’d need to watch a video to get caught up on the story. That said, yeah, the gameplay and story is absolutely incredible. Perfectly-executed mystery box.
It’s just a bummer that most tech tutorials are on there…wish we were back in the early 00s when alternatives to Youtube were still viable.
And then you have Valve, who was offered the 10 year Call of Duty contract like the other platform holders and cloud services were and they were like “nah bro, we believe you. we also don’t care.”
I’m a single university student with a small budget (maybe $60 per week). When I do meal plan I try to make a dinner that will last me a few days but it’s not always easy. For one, it gets boring, and two, some days I’m just hungrier than others so there are weeks where I go past my budget.
I’d be curious to hear how other university students do it.
That sounds awful lol. I’m in university right now and have neglected work on any projects. I finally found something of a passion in retro game reverse engineering a few months ago and have obsessed over it. It’s only one game I’m reversing though so it’s likely to take me years and years before I can release anything resembling something playable.
You’ve now scared me into maybe working on other things too…I wonder if related projects count? A website for the project, developer tools, documentation, etc.
Last year me: I don’t trust Reddit, that’s why I use old.Reddit.
Nice try NSA’s machine learning algorithm!
Of course it’s from the Midwest. If my time over there meant anything, they sure do love ‘pop’ especially Mountain Dew. lol
This kind of thing makes me so angry. If the game is so old, how is it hurting anyone to reverse engineer it and keep its tiny group of fans happy. I know the answer. It’s rhetorical.
We’re self-service in California and our Costco gas queues are also asinine. Are they just that much worse over there?
Yeah it’s so stressful to think about. The only good thing to come out of this is a less-apathetic voting demographic between 18-35. Let’s hope it’s enough to keep the fascists at bay.
They never should have been allowed to buy it in the first place.
I can’t believe it’s only 11 years old. It already felt like it had a lot of history when I played it back in 2012.
I’m doing summer research with a focus on ML. I just built my computer and picked AMD because of the price, but did not now that Nvidia was the one to pick at the moment if that’s what I wanted it for. I don’t know enough about hardware and could use the school labs anyway, but I should have done better research (ironic heh).
I can’t say I agree. It’s more likely they see the money they’d be leaving on the table and it helps that this makes them look more amiable for future acquisitions.
