Game and Tool developer working with Godot and NixOS.
It’s all good, I’m in a similar cynical boat. By default I don’t trust anyone that’s in the spotlight by choice.
However, if shitty people start doing things like this just for clout, well it’s better than the Nazis that are taking things over right now I guess that don’t even try to pretend to be a good person.
Although I agree with you, we will not get out of the hole we’re in if we don’t support people like this to overtake the ones that are legitimately hungry for power.
On the flipside, there’s always the possibility she’s doing this as a stunt and doesn’t mean any of it. Plenty of Gen-Z pretend to feed homeless people on TikTok, could just be a glorified version of that.
If nobody else understands it, you can make up literally anything you want about how much more complicated it is than initially thought.
The graphic would be more impactful by including his current title under his name.
Thanks for giving a simple summary so I didn’t have to click and watch.
Godamnit Ziff. Thanks for that, had no idea. Fucking tired of useless c-suite executives.
They also straight up publish indies themselves, too!
eta: see next comment. turns out a CEO destroyed this, too.
Licking the boot with his asshole it’s so deep
No thanks. I’d rather have a younger battler like Buttigieg that doesn’t pull punches.
I swear, I’ve only recommended it to one newbie, and they were an engineer! I had a reason!
Hilarious that this is the new norm, though. NixOS is so not typical at all. Arch is more normal at this point.
lmao… the TED talk is hilarious. Midway through, he starts explaining how Jurassic Park did vfx, basically showing how absolutely beastly and talented they were overcoming challenges in practical effects at that scale; then goes on to show this slopshit garbage.
It’s really sad that it took the “artist” 2 whole weeks to make this.
More confusion. How often do you change your username? Few minutes ago it was “whoareu”, now its “kionite231” (eta: I guess it’s lemmy. Your username changes every time I refresh the page between these two)
Where’s the code or info on pieces of the puzzle that you made and are trying to showcase here?
I’m a little confused:
Kinda confirms to me that the current admin’s strategy is to destroy as much as possible and only address the squeaky wheels on a case-by-case basis.
The small handful of things that we fight back against and win won’t outweigh the sheer amount of damage they do to things we have less awareness of. A single win, no matter how large or trivial, will sate the general public for a time and give them the calmness the admin needs to keep moving forward.
Pretty sure this is a military strategy and probably has a name. Inundate your enemy with so many events they spread themselves too thin to address everything coming at them.
The modern luddite may want to set their sights on certain data centers…
Depends on what you want to do, what you know, and how much effort you want to put in. For other ways, outside the usual Android tools, there are a couple options. With python, there’s a project called BeeWare that makes a lot of things easier to deal with.
Personally, though, I’ve been game deving in Godot, and have even made a few dumb little personal apps with it. There’s coding involved, but there’s also a lot you can do in the interface to design the app visually, and exporting to any platform is pretty straightforward. Even the Godot editor itself is made with the Godot editor, so it can do a lot of things outside games.
Not to mention the sense of pioneering something. Like I imagine calculating the Moon landing is something you’re happy to spend 80+ hours a week on, especially when basic needs are taken care of.
It’s just one option. You can always go to the artists’ shows and pay cash at the merch table.
Definitely not normal, excellent. I wish I was closer to IL, I kinda want to see for myself as well.
