I've been meaning to post some of my stuff to Flatpak when Godot 4.4 releases but never bothered to look into it. This is perfect, thanks for sharing!
I have been obsessed with this game since it came out. I've already put in 60 hours and got 14 games cherried (which means 100%ing them, getting a true ending, or beating a difficult challenge).
I'm writing an incredibly long blog post where I review every single game in the pack. Excited to finish & share it once I'm done playing through everything.
There are two good options: Host your own blog yourself, or join a blogging platform that isn't corporate. I personally use BearBlog but I've heard good things about Write.as as well. These two have free blogging options and don't sell your data. If you want to host it yourself (which is safer), check out Hugo.
Ultimately, bots scrape the entire internet and there's no guarantee they will honor robots.txt of a particular website (which tells bots what they are and aren't allowed to do). If it's on the internet, people can scrape your content and there isn't much you can do about it. That shouldn't stop you from writing or blogging, just don't post very personal data.
Also, feel free to join us on !blogging@programming.dev!
Has it ever been better?
Actually, yes, by a big margin. Back in ~2011 mobile games were actually trying to be great. Games like Edge Extended, World of Goo, Bounce Boing Voyage, Zenonia 2 & 3, etc.
I remember early Humble Bundles being full of exciting games for mobile, now you'll be lucky to find just one of them that isn't filled to the brim with MTX or ads.
Good read, and I think you might want to look at OnlyOffice. It's open source and while it is kindof a shameless Microsoft Office clone, it does seem to support LaTeX when adding equations. Not sure how well it works as I don't use it though. The slides app is pretty decent, the only bone I have to pick with it is that there aren't many animation types and most of them are very basic. Otherwise, might be what you're looking for.
Edit: I just tried it and it seems to work pretty well. Select LaTeX, type your equation, then select professional in the dropdown menu and it'll show the equation.
Right? Who gives a shit about user experience anyways? When someone has an issue, you just tell them to man up and figure it out.
No, it's not always obvious which is the "main" community and there are many communities that died due to lack of traction, often because there are duplicate communities that also lacked traction. Community following would not only help unify communities and unify comments in crossposts, it also encourages decentralization by making 5 useful communities instead of 4 dead and 1 active.
It's not insane or narcissistic to want to reach a big audience. The same audience, across multiple instances, without effort. It's social media 101. Saying who cares to that is a great way to see a dwindling userbase. Maybe you can't feel it because it doesn't directly affect your usage, but it does many others, and providing an optional solution is not a bad thing to consider.
I'd also like to take this moment to show that this is the most popular issue in Lemmy's github, getting over twice as many likes as the 2nd most liked issue. Everyone convincing eachother in the comments that nobody cares about this is clearly wrong, and are being so in an insanely toxic and dismissive manner. Thanks.
I know this post probably wasn't intended to be malicious but it is insane you wrote this without realizing how it's emanating privilege and not understanding why people can't find a job.
I graduated over a year ago from my CS degree. Excellent GPA, with honors. I've been learning game dev since college and have been (sort of) doing it professionally since graduation. I've done a 4-month internship, two mediocre part-time jobs, some freelancing, and I still can't find a proper job. The industry is collapsing and the job market is flooded with talent that have a dozen years of experience. Combine that with the fact that I live in a poor country where there aren't many game dev jobs and companies are scaling down work from home, and finding one is a nightmare.
Let me get this straight. The blog post says you've been working for 10 years, maybe more. You already have insane amounts of experience and a past history with companies.
So what did I do right?
Maybe working in the industry for a dozen years has something to do with being able to find a job easily. If you had <5 years of experience you would have struggled to reach an interview. If you did reach an interview, someone with a more stacked CV would take that job instead. This has some "Why don't millennials just buy a house?" energy.
Technically you're right but the thing about AI image generators is that they make it really easy to mass-produce results. Each one I used in the survey took me only a few minutes, if that. Some images like the cat ones came out great in the first try. If someone wants to curate AI images, it takes little effort.
I feel for you. A few people said the human art I put in the survey were lackluster but I thought they were pretty good, not everyone is an S-tier artist.
77% of people guessed this was AI generated, and a friend of mine kept saying it was weird and inconsistent so "I doubt a real artist would put random food in the back"
It's actually a cropped image of https://www.deviantart.com/tsaoshin/art/Strawberry-Taiyaki-Cat-905271835 . I wouldn't want to be an artist right now.
Sure, but keep in mind this is a casual survey. Don't take the results too seriously. Have fun: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MkuZG2MiGj-77PGkuCAM3Btb1_Lb4TFEx8tTZKiOoYI
Do give some credit if you can.
The goal isn't really to be a quiz, but rather just to see how susceptible people are to AI generated art. Many of the images I chose are intentionally vague, 80% of people so far got the line art sketch wrong, and that's with knowing that many of these are AI generated. The results are definitely interesting to see.
A "don't know" option would ruin the point since most people would just choose that. I want to see where people lean towards.
These websites are really bad, I really don't understand why many of these websites that invite people to Linux fail to understand the user that would browse something like this. It straight up links to the GNU website to browse distros and software, which by the way, isn't loading as of writing this comment.
This entire website talks about ditching Windows without an obvious call to action. Windows is bad, yes, but giving people a list of every distro under the sun and saying "good luck" won't convince anyone to switch. Give obvious beginner recommendations. Tell people to install Linux Mint, and a beginner-friendly guide on HOW, and why Linux is good rather than just convincing everybody to stay on Windows 10.
