Android's file structure is so incomprehensible. I'm genuinely surprised there hasn't been any significant effort made to make it more readable. Pictures saved in app directories, downloads, camera, images, pictures, media, DCIM???.

What pisses me off about the whole Unity thing is that if Unity makes itself eat shit then it just further consolidates engines into fewer hands. Godot is great and all but it doesn't have everything Unreal has (I'm not throwing shade it'll get there dw) and I really really don't want Epic to have a bigger stranglehold on the games industry than it already does.

Unity had its niche and if the executives could stop fucking around it would be lovely to have as a competitor in the landscape.

Also to everyone saying "just don't use Unity": there are a lot of people who have put a lot of time and money and effort into learning Unity and it's not exactly as easy as you think to just switch to an entirely new workflow. You also have to consider how impractical it is to switch engines mid-development. There's a reason why Unreal 5 has been out for multiple years and we're only just seeing games developed with it now. Developers (especially ones with big budgets and all the caveats they come with) don't want to ship a game with the latest and greatest engine if there's kinks to be worked out. This is why you still see Unreal 4 in games released today.

That won't make the sex offender registry functionally useless at all... /s

If you ever needed an example of how conservatives don't actually give a shit about preventing child predation...

I've said it before and I'll say it again. If your site doesn't work on Firefox your site doesn't work. As web developers your job is to develop applications for the web not for one specific browser. This goes double for essential services.

Seconded. The first time I was willing to write it off as frustrated voters being misled by a conman. This time is different. You all had four years under this rapist conman and enough people decided they'd go back for seconds. Despicable.

I don't get it? It couldn't have been Luigi. He was busy working at a Jay St. Videogames all day.

By Grabthar's hammer.... What a movie.

When my custom character shows up in a cutscene

It's definitely still pirating. I think the quote uses the term "stealing".

Tbh most of the ire aimed at immigrants here is specifically targeted to either Indian or Ukrainian migrants. Infrastructure is genuinely buckling under the weight of migration but it's a case of too little investment and not entirely the result of immigration.

I can say as a white, western immigrant to Canada that I've never had anyone complain about my immigration however I've had locals complain about immigration to me forgetting that I am indeed one of the immies.

This is a reference to the Susan Boyle album party where they used the hashtag #susanalbumparty

Honestly at a certain point labels only help when you share a common definition with your audience.

If I call myself a socialist I need to preface it by defining socialism because everyone above 25 still thinks it means autocratic dictatorial regime where the government owns your underpants.

I just tell people that democracy is better than monarchy so we should expand that to workplaces and give workers a vote on the direction of their workplace. Most people are more amenable to this than dropping the S word or god forbid C word.

To quote Homer Simpson:

Lisa! If you don't like your job, you don't strike. You just go in every day and do it really half-assed. That's the American way.

Or, is the husband owed two votes and the wife none?

To conservatives it's this one.

Because Apple ran a series of commercials comparing Mac to "PC" to differentiate themselves from the rest of the market but didn't acknowledge other OSs besides Windows in this series.

Those ads played everywhere and now everyone associates the term PC with Windows.

I could have my timeline off but the first time I heard PC to refer to windows specifically was around the time these commercials aired.

...was fired at...

Gotta love a passive voice so passive that it doesn't even clarify that she was shot and killed and not merely "fired at".

Furthermore, if the manufacturer wants to pretend that they're selling you a perpetual license to use the hardware or whatever legal bullshit they came up with on the back of a cocktail napkin between lines of coke then they can't advertise using the words buy, own or anything similar without explicitly indicating in the largest font that you aren't the owner of the product.

You don't end the duopoly by voting third party. You end it by organising between elections. But it's so much easier to virtue signal now and then lay back on the couch for the next 3.5 years plus you get the smug sense of self-satisfaction!
