  • What to do if i want to make games oneday, but im unsure where to start?

    Jump

  • 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.

  • Dev says "false DMCA" from Microsoft got their sandbox game removed from Steam over apparent Minecraft copyright, all because of a screenshot of birch trees

    Jump

  • Because it's a voxel Birch or because you feel the texture is derivative and pixel similarities show glaring similarities leading to the belief the creation of the assets were based on MC textures?

    A DCMA from a company representing Mojang got Luanti (formerly Minetest) taken down once before because they thought it infringed. After challenge it was later found it was bullshit.

  • Being Forced to Say Goodbye

    Jump

  • 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...

  • Being Forced to Say Goodbye

  • 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.

  • do LLMs destroy open source?

    Jump

  • 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.

  • Your Linux PC is NOT private out of the box

    Jump

  • 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.

  • Senior devs...

    Jump

  • I'd have thought this a mid-level thing. Most seniors know the cost of complexity and KISS (Keep It simple Stupid).

  • why?

  • I fear those that are going down the path love sycophants and AI is perfect for that. When your ego gets in the way with building any real equal connection.

  • NHS defends cousin marriages because ‘only 15 percent lead to birth defects’

    Jump

  • Right wing newspaper The Telegraph supporting right-wing MPs campaign to ban cousin marriage by cherry picking health service docs that aren't there to promote but giving guidance to health professionals on how to treat patients and have zero impact on whether people choose to marry their cousins or procreate with them.

    The prevalence is higher in UK Pakistani communities like Bradford. Having a right wing politician cherry pick info they dislike about minorities to start a crusade against minorities is as old as time.

    I didn't think reactionary right wing politics would get so much traction on Lemmy of all places. Critically assess your sources, who is publishing, who is saying, and why.

    Next week. Right wing MP pushes to ban the burka as it has x% impact on pedestrian safety at road crossings. When racists cannot directly discriminate, they don't stop, they just go for indirect strategies.

  • NHS defends cousin marriages because ‘only 15 percent lead to birth defects’

    Jump

  • Yeah, but what can the NHS do with that?

    They just treat folk. People will make those choices regardless.

  • Furious Protestor Tears AI-Generated Art Off Wall of Exhibit, Chews It Up Into Tiny Shreds Using His Teeth

  • With AI art, it consumes others art and regurgitates AI art. Did the guy just become AI?

    Feels like this may have been a logically driven response.

  • Closing programs

    Jump

  • 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)

    Is this allowed or do I have to shit on it to be cool?
