It's telling that Valve opted to use open-source Turnip drivers for their VR headset instead of relying on Qualcomm to actually support their own chip.

Proton’s official account said the company was “alerted by a CERT that certain accounts were being misused by hackers in violation of Proton’s Terms of Service,”

Proton’s CEO later announced that the accounts were reinstated, following another post by the company that said the company does “stand with journalists,” but that it “cannot see the content of accounts and therefore cannot always know when anti-abuse measures may inadvertently affect legitimate activism.”

Sounds reasonable to me? It's not a good look but it sounds like they quickly re-instated the closed accounts. The article title is misleading.

Yeah Discord has been wacky on Linux lately, they pushed maybe 4 different updates the past week that forced you to update the package immediately.

Pro tip: Sync the package manager database before trying to update. It could tell you there are no updates when it's just pacman being out of date.

Yeah I'm aware of the hall effect replacements which are pretty cheap, but this fix was essentially free and should last me at least a few months until the sticks degrade. Once it really stops working I'll look into opening it again and fixing it for real.

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.

Why? Automod is just a tool, the issues people have with it is how overzealous the mods using it are. If you're moderating a community with 10,000+ people you can't expect to filter and manage everything yourself, so a bot scheduling posts and filtering potential spam/low effort content is necessary.

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.

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.

Since you have programming experience getting started shouldn't be too difficult for you. You can jump straight into the introduction in the docs or just jump straight into the your first game section. It gives you a quick intro and tells you how to get around.

After that you can check out the ultimate introduction to Godot 4 video. It's a massive 11 hour video that teaches you almost everything you need to know (in 2D game development). Good luck.

Easily one of my favorite features coming in 4.2, I've been using it all the time to make things tidy.

Compared to last year Unity (-4%) Godot (+7%)

You love to see it.
