In agile development. You do a little, release. Otherwise it is too big and may never be done. The fact they committed resources to improve this is a positive. The hope is they build on it and add more options.

However, if they get trashed for trying, they and many other companies may not try. Why spend money to get a bad reputation when the spending nothing creates less I’ll will to the company. That is ultimately the decision Product Owners and Designers will weigh up.

I think for progress, the best approach is maybe “positive first step but more options are needed for non-bonary for this to really make players feel comfortable”.

From a technical perspective, separating pronoun hard coding from the models gives more scope to give more options in the future, however, as someone mentioned, there is a lot of art work needed on assets and animations so the new shapes function the same in all cases.

First one is about Germany, not UK. Secondly, you do realise wikipedia is unreliable, prone to edit wars and subject to those that have the most passion for a topic (like free speech “absolutists”/racists). It’s why academia tell you its a poor reference and to not bother.

Can you find a UK example that you think overstepped the line?

I’m in the UK, critical of Israel and not been arrested yet…

It’s always interesting seeing distrorted American views of the UK.

No you cannot. Assuming you’re not from the UK.

Stirring up racial hatred and geeing people up to burn down hotels holding refugees is not free speech.

It’s unfortunate they couldn’t use a Euro figure which would have made it much clearer.

Fair point. I thought you were implying the opposite.

I read it as implying Labour is anti-free speech for clamping down on racist hate speech and mob mentality.

Can you explain this point?

It didn’t suddenly go that way. It was always the plan. A loss leader.

I cannot see this working. Unless it can ask if you have enough anaesthetic and stop when you do not, otherwise, it’ll be an expensive torture device.

It was more than one mistake. Where was the QA, the staged rollout, the CI? It brought unto question how competent this company is to be a dominant player in such a critical market.

That era was peak Pro Eco.

What?

Was that just an embarrassed verbal vomit?

You were wrong, and rather than admitting, or leaving it, you continue trying to spew words in the hope that you confuse and distract people from realising you were wrong. Are you that insecure?

What you are referring to is heuristics. It’s simplistic. Effective for wild animals that require processing of complex information quickly to escape predators for example, but not so much for civilised humans that require a greater deal of accuracy.

You demonstrated the ineffectiveness of the approach by assuming I’m a Democrat or even American.

The skill is in understanding the process, the flaw and developing a capability for critical thought. You’ll get there eventually, hopefully.

I’m on that instance and not a tankie. I’m politically left, but object completely to authoritarianism and justification of atrocities.

So yeah, I get annoyed when pricks generalise and wish my death upon me for thinking maybe we should help the poorest in society and don’t think the super rich deserve every penny they get.

I find it ironic when people are hating on one political grouping and their conduct is no better than the ones they despise.

Wow, that’s a pretty discussing comment. You do not agree with a few peoples views, do generalise and want them to die. You’re worse than tankies.

It’s fine. They said Windows 10 is there last operating system. It sure is for me.

If Russia use them and NATO respond with nukes or anything that will cause major problems, they’ll send their nukes to the West (Europe, US), and the West will send them back. These will be done under orders if they do not hear anything, and very little action will be quick enough to prevent it.

Mutually assured destruction. The question would be who would survive? NZ? South America? Africa? Asia?

I’m fucked personally as I’m in the UK.

I would rather we didn’t masturbate over nuclear weapons because what happened to Japan would be nothing compared to the loss of life on a global scale. It is a good option for nobody.

I think the important thing is consent to use data. If I can control what data I share with them, it isn’t the end of the world. If I choose to not, and it’s honoured, then this is a good thing. I’d prefer this approach funding development to Mozilla not being able to compete.

Mozilla is a far superior company to Google.

Ah interesting. Appreciate the clarification. Not seen much from Beehaw in a while.

Lemmy.world has a higher percentage of questionable users for sure.

Separate point, but are beehaw now not defederated from the world? When did this happen?

So you’re saying if Valve enshittified, they wouldn’t fork and try to capitilise on that market?

They probably do not see the point right now as Valve have it sewn up. Lemmy grew when Reddit scored own goals. When Valve do, opportunities are there and would be taken.
