Too old? I don’t know this term.

Have you already send your mother a message today?

Would speed up crosswalks a lot too. Whenever I cross a crosswalk with my dog I don’t want to risk me misjudging the braking of cars so I tend to really wait until I’m sure they’re stopping.

And here I thought he would put his head out the door when he said “I’ll check the weather”.

That’s how I do it.

That’s a great take. It’s not black and white.

Thanks for asking, although it felt like it was sort of out of left field =P!

I don’t know this expression but it was a joke based off the OP yes.

There are no reports of Israel or Russia using ArduPilot though.

What’s your take on boundaries?

Why do people attribute decisions like that to the competence of the programmers?

Because supporting multiple platforms, especially in gaming, isn’t magic or rocket science and almost always comes down to the setup of the toolchain.

This is a business decision

Very possible. But I go by their actual statement: “maintaining the native build across many distros was taking time away from developing new content”. My point is regarding the “maintaining […] across many distros” and not the “taking time away”. A good toolchain would make these differences extremely minimal.

hundreds or thousands of hours logged for tasks related to supporting Linux

Extremely unlikely. That would mean more than 10 developers working fulltime purely on Linux support since the release of the game. According to their team page on their website they have 7 developers in total.

every build going out to tens of thousands of active players needs to be tested

This is why experienced developers decouple the game from the platform specific stuff and test them separately.

The game is made in Unity so most of the platform specific stuff should already be production ready. Unity literally markets their engine as “Industry-leading multiplatform support” with the motto “Create once, ship anywhere”.

So my argument still stands. And as I said, it’s not a bad thing. The only thing I dislike is the indirect implication of Linux being a hassle when it would be nicer if they would take more responsibility for it.

I hope the drone that ends Putler will come out of a wooden toilet shed.

The fix is to chmod it all to 777.

As a cross platform developer I consider this incompetence.

That’s not necessary a bad thing. The world is full of less experienced programmers. But they’re making it look like it’s a hassle to release for Linux when in reality you can foresee and plan for this from the start, without much overhead down the line.

Instance checks out.

At least we know vibe coders will eventually destroy themselves.

Doesn’t matter what they think of you personally.

You’re just one request between the hundreds that are trying to hit on them.

Most drug problems are because of the government and their evil war against drugs.

I asked ChatGPT and this is what it said:

An argument for using ChatGPT and sharing its response is that sharing what ChatGPT said can, in fact, contribute meaningfully—just like quoting a book, article, or expert. If the AI’s response adds insight, solves a problem, or sparks discussion, then referencing it is a valid form of contribution. Dismissing it entirely overlooks the evolving role of AI as a tool in public discourse.

GDPR is absolutely amazing. I got some big shitty companies to heel already. So be sure to submit GDPR complaints whenever you see something!

In one case I got a big company in trouble for the following bullshit:

• Illegal marketing usage of email addresses. They literally started sending me marketing spam after contacting their support without me accepting anything.
• False GDPR compliance claim. They claimed to comply with the GDPR but they absolutely didn’t. They didn’t even have a representative while being an international company.

I have had official documents mailed to me about legal findings and proceedings regarding my complaints.
