I'd been using Unity off-and-on for more than a decade, even published two crappy mobile games back in the day

this recent kerfuffle led me to find Godot and I actually quite enjoy it. so even if Unity did a full reversal I can't see myself ever going back to it

I had no idea their CEO was from EA, so in a way I'm glad all this happened as I learned quite a bit

yep

I’ll take my lower salary to sit in my home office with central air

I wouldn’t last a day as a driver with their expectations and the need to move/lift heavy packages in the heat

and apparently GS wants out of the apple card business (according to some other report I saw)

so I wonder who would take over if they do leave

I’m not sure if all of your points are covered, but this page has fediverse tips and an active mastodon account where you might be able to ask for the remaining scenarios to be covered

kinda liking this new quali format so far

the hards are introducing a bit of chaos, I feel like multiple warm up laps might work well?

[-] lackthought 14 points 1 year ago

shorter cars is a welcome change

I realize the safety structure makes it hard to reduce the size too much but maintaining current sizes or reducing them a little bit should help with on-track racing, especially on the tight street circuits F1 seems to love these days

it’s funny because I was able to get a standup desk in my home office

I’m in better shape now than when I was sitting at the office (plus zero distractions from the cOlAbErAtIvE oPeN fLoOr pLaN)

I am a current Apple daily driver for my computing needs, but not until somewhat recently

This was a pretty interesting video about the hypercard software from the 80s

Did anyone here use it? What kind of things did you create?

hello to all the smart and beautiful members of c/retronet

When I initially created this community I threw together a basic icon, banner, ruleset, and description just to set things in motion

Now that we've got a few hundred people subscribed I'd like to ask if anyone wants to nominate new and more permanent fixtures

If you are graphically inclined: you can recommend a new community icon or banner. I believe banners are 966x240 resolution (EDIT: lemmy updates seem to be changing banner resolutions, so this may be in flux) Icons seem to be max of 120x120

If you are good at words: feel free to recommend a better or more concise ruleset, or short description.

The short description appears in search results so it can be helpful for new users who are looking for communities, but I didn't want it to be too wordy either. It is currently 'Vintage Culture/Websites/Software'

P.S. I haven't needed to take any moderator actions but if anyone would like to volunteer for mod-duty leave a comment below and I'll mod you since I'm (surprisingly) not online 24 hours a day and who knows when the bots and spammers will arrive

available via homebrew with:
brew install --cask cool-retro-term

according to the github, most distributions such as Ubuntu, Fedora or Arch already have the package cool-retro-term in their official repositories

I’m not too familiar with the exact tech stack for memmy, but I see on github it is listed as typescript and javascript

obviously the layout and dimensions would need to be adjusted but is it likely we could compile a version for use on our desktop?

I can already tell this will be my daily driver on phone and would love a full size program with the same theme/features

[-] lackthought 14 points 2 years ago

it seems to be an amalgamation of reddit and twitter

they have 'magazines' which are like subreddits, but magazines can designate hashtags which appear on the 'microblog' tab of a magazine and seem to pull in posts from other fediverse instances such as Mastodon

I'm still learning my way around but that is how I understand it

[-] lackthought 14 points 2 years ago

hey don't kink shame!

[-] lackthought 14 points 2 years ago

I unchecked the 'Show Scores' option in settings (desktop site) and I enjoy the experience a lot

feels like old school forums where people just communicated instead of all this useless gamification
