While, yes, Steam doing this is… OK… The resale is what matters. Technically passing it on via Gog’s download is “piracy”, but having some sort of physical identifier for the thing makes it legal to resell.

Disappointed that gmtk doesn’t address the fact that this wouldn’t really be an issue with physical media because it can be re-sold and kept in a library.

I think the author / article muddies the concepts of “horizontal” and “organised”, and I guess also leaves the obvious question unanswered: Why means? Because we’ve seen what happens when we pursue ends, over and over again.

…disappeared…

I wonder where they went…

Intel has had open source drivers for quite a while, they just get upstreamed slowly.

Or abcde for command line.

No one has said this one yet:

I play a mix and generally want to create a distance between me and the character. I’m not thinking “what would I do?” I’m thinking “what would this person do?”

Having said that, if I pick a girl I won’t pick a heterosexual romance option. Romance in games is strange.

There’s also Diablo with Devilution.

Almost like we should have a national provider.

Yeah good point. The numbers are a bit closer for fission though. Like phase one we can do renewables but electrification needs way more power than available currently. E.g. green hydrogen. There are valid scale up scenarios where fission is part of the picture, but almost none of them make sense under capitalism.

Fusion has basically nothing to do with climate change. Even if Fusion were cracked tomorrow, the scale out would be such that you couldn’t meaningfully supply a lot of base load power before you’d need to be net neutral. My take is that fusion, when available, alongside solar, would be used for carbon dioxide removal.

He’s a jerk but he’s our jerk.

100% this. The whole process of creation and critique goes way back to the dawn of film and probably before. The entire construction of positions and job titles (creative director, design lead, etc) all draw from these theories. This requires the critique to be separate from the process of creation.

Someone apologising for a repost? That’s howyou know it’s not Reddit.

lol yes.

Yeah this was something else I was thinking of. I’m not exactly sure about the mechanics of the infringement here, but it seems like simply knowing a thing taints you for producing a work. I guess it’s more about ease of proving?

I think this is less corruption and more vanity. There are a lot of charitable organisations out there who will routinely donate over a million dollars. They’ll get a hospital wing or entrance or statue or something named after them. I think compared to those charities, open hand is incredibly small.

My guess is their strategy was to do a bulk donation to get some kind of recognition for their mum. They were probably hoping they’d have much larger sums in a shorter time, and then time just kept on going.

The problem is, that would have been fine if it was their money they were doing this with, but they’re doing these shenanigans with other people’s money, and now open hand is probably done for as a charity.

Solarpunk is a Science Fiction genre. I don’t think the Hippie movement was a sci-fi genre?

Proprietary?

It’s all right dude just think solarpunk thoughts. We are going to be ok.
