Oh, absolutely. I would even say that description of their attitude towards workers rights is an understatement. I’m just talking about their lofty goals for the project and how even with the best engineers and best workforce in the world their stated timelines are physically impossible
It’s almost like they set a bunch of absurdly unrealistic deadlines and now cannot figure out how to meet them
Thanks for letting me know I have new Neal Stephenson to read!
It’s going to stay on my wishlist but I think I’ll sit on it for a while Thank you for your response!
Wow! Thank you for the detailed response, based on your comments and those of the other responder I’ll probably pass on it for now, I’m deeply uncomfortable enough on my own thank you.
Who knows though, it may still end up in my library later when it goes on sale. I have a bad history of that.
Is this game fun? I have seen lots of recommendations for it but the name of the game along with some of the art has me worried it’s going to be deeply uncomfortable. To anyone who has played it: how would you describe the mood of the game?
There are apps for it on your phone. It was also a very popular trick by cheaters in Pokemon Go lol
You had me at mortal engines
inb4 the supreme court says “actually nobody gets any”
Thanks for pointing them out! The whole thing looks delicious
Maybe I’m blind but, which one is the river snails?
Futo has it
Im not sure if its just me but that picture is way too small to be legible
Yeah, AZW3 was the format I was thinking of. For things purchased from the amazon store for the kindle they will be in that format. If you want to move your amazon books library elsewhere you have to use some funky plugins for calibre to convert them to a standard format like mobi or epub
My understanding is they arent mobi files anymore but a proprietary DRM format. That being said, there are many wonderful calibre plugins that break the drm.
Voice & screensharing seems to be the thing holding all of my friends chained to discord
It appears to! I found a review for it on reddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Controller/comments/1c2gbm8/8bitdo_pro_2_with_hall_effect_detailed_technical/
My current favourite controllers for the price is the 8bitdo Ultimate C2. They come with hall effect joysticks so no drift, theyre light and responsive, and they’re compatible with all consoles and operating systems that I am aware of. The 8bitdo ultimate is xbox-style joystick configuration, but the Pro2 by them is playstation style and to my understanding is of similar quality. Just make sure you get the hall effect variant to avoid potential future stick drift
I mean, yeah. It’s an industry that has a near-unlimited supply of starry-eyed fresh college grads to throw into the meat grinder, and the executives of these companies absolutely love to take advantage of that. Maybe if enough devs leave the industry they might finally have to start respecting the people who work for them out of necessity.
I mean, one of the benafits for fentanyl specifically from the perspective of drug dealers is that it’s a synthetic. With heroin or cocaine or something you have to have space to grow the plants or a source for the plants and those can only grow easily at certain latitudes, etc. So you’re limited by the supply chain. With synthetics you can set up a lab anywhere relatively easily, like in Canada for example
