I might give Backpack Battles a try. It doesn’t look like my usual style, but I heard there’s some good strategy under the surface, and I like that it’s made with Godot.

It’s written correctly. “All but” in the sense used here means almost. “All but certain” means a hair’s breadth from absolute certainty.
(Also, “lose” is the word you were looking for; not “loose”.)
So with normal use it should be fine for a few decades.
Considering that “normal use” can be so very different among different people/applications/climates, I don’t put a lot of stock in assessments like that, but it is at least one prediction to compare against when we see what happens in practice. Time will tell.
I’m curious how long the current gen OLED consoles will be in use before they develop screen burn-in.
Or by people formerly paying for their internet service with money that should have been going toward food or heat.
Losing the $30 monthly discount could force families to choose between broadband and other necessities,
Exactly.
It’s also important to note that some ISPs created a low-cost service plan specifically for ACP. (It’s reasonable to assume this was possible in part because ACP handled income verification and eliminated the costs of individual billing and credit card payments.) That plan will likely disappear if ACP goes away, leaving poor people stuck paying a bill much higher than the program ever paid.
In most places, there’s money in enforcement, and power in disenfranchisement.
I don’t know what Thailand-specific motives might be in play here, if any.
Seems like someone with foreknowledge of the reversal could have made some money there, doesn’t it?
if other people aren’t posting it seems silly to penalize the ones who are
I suppose that’s an easy statement to agree with. However, a sensible rate limit is not a penalty.
Joke’s on them. Google locked me out of my account when I refused to give them my phone number.
if this community has any hope of being anywhere near as comprehensive in coverage as the News Subreddits
I left Reddit on purpose.
I would rather have quality than volume.
I would rather my news feed be diverse than dominated by one or two self-appointed influencers of discourse. (Even if they have good intentions.)
I approve of this rule. Ten articles per person each day is more than enough at this stage, and the threshold for “too much” can always be adjusted as the community grows.
The purpose, a spokesperson for the legislature told local media, is to “guide people to deeply understand the trinity of loving the country, the Party, and socialism.”
How is this different from brainwashing?
This seems like a step in the right direction. Much like language translation, doing it on-device is the only way to preserve people’s data agency / privacy.
Good riddance.
That headline reads like it’s a planned annual event. :(
Did your wife go on social media to pick a fight by stereotyping and publicly scolding a large community of people, and justify it with an obviously false claim? I hope not, but if so, then I wish you the best of luck working through that together.
Be the change, homie.
When someone claims two obviously different things are exactly the same, pointing out that the comparison is idiotic is not combative, homie.
Edit: More to the point, defending one’s community by pointing out the idiocy of an attack is not combative.
You might not be paying for software in money but you’re going to pay for it, one way or another.
Indeed. As I hinted in my comment, and stated more clearly in another one.
You should just learn Chinese.
That’s disingenuous. I wasn’t complaining about English not serving me well, now was I?
Also, once again, mountains vs. molehills.
The difference here is mountains vs. molehills.
And in most cases, they obviously do have sufficient ability to learn how, because they were able to learn the commercial software they’re currently using.
As for time, yes, learning always takes time. (Thus my comparison to learning a new commute.) But suggesting that someone learn something new is not stupid or unreasonable, especially if the thing they currently use is not serving them well.
I don’t know why you would think that cherry-picked and extremely specific scenario is somehow representative of the general subject we’re discussing. Of course situations exist where learning alternative software isn’t the best answer. That doesn’t make it wrong for people to suggest the alternatives. Quite often, they’re perfectly viable, and it’s perfectly reasonable to try to help by making someone aware of them.
is exactly like saying “why don’t you just buy a house?” to someone complaining about their landlord.
What an idiotic comparison.
Buying a house costs so much money and time that most people cannot afford to, and those who can generally must go into debt for most of their remaining lives in order to do so. Suggesting FOSS to replace “whatever commercial software they use” is the polar opposite, in that it’s literally free (usually in both senses of the word). It’s more like suggesting that someone consider a new route to commute from home to work.
Also, this opening…
Okay, all you open source evangelist people: your knee-jerk reaction to come at people
…is incredibly reductive and combative. The world needs less of that, not more.
It’s also ironic in light of his history of loudly bashing linux and linux game development.
I can’t think of anything good to say about Tim Sweeney.
