Please don’t implement the text version of OpenTTD

I can tell you immediately why, just looking at the photo.

Shiny stone knap knap, my spear is shinier than yours.

With Meta it very much looks like overhiring. What are those 8000 workers even doing, designing CSS for each individual ad on Facebook?

Samsung pretty much controls Android market, Google is afraid to fart sideways in their presence.

You can publish your open source app on Google Play, and this will not change. Google is also not planning to introduce $100/year publishing fee for devs like Apple, you pay $25 one time to register. There is also no real alternative open source OS for phones.

Google decision impacts apps like Termux, who use old Android API to install additional packages. If you are not planning to create Linux emulator, I guess this won’t impact you.

Do new phones still refuse to run old apps?

“Eh, they can recover from yesterday,” he said, referring to daily database backups.

But did they recover from backups? Don’t leave the most juicy intrigue out of the story.

scanf gives me shivers. Please use -Werror=format compiler flag to catch dumb errors that will make your code crash in mysterious ways.

Most web browsers will have a hard limit on WASM apps that will be around 200-300 MB of binary size, and your RAM will be limited too.

Try opening a full-featured WASM game on iPad and weep.

Source: I’ve ported an open-source game to WASM. Worked fine on my PC, not so well anywhere else.

SDL provides you a framebuffer with 640x480 pixels and 24-bit color, with a delicious pixel-perfect 8x12 monospace font, on every OS and every device, and this is everything you will ever need. Titlebar? Close button? Your app is perfect, it needs no close button. It will be running 24/7 in a fullscreen mode, and the user will be happy! Other apps? Pah! Let them run on a second, smaller monitor!

Active radar on the border I suppose. And I guess it’s more for assisted geolocation with GPS jammed than to send commands to change course.

However it may be for that too, the miltech is not beyond implementing stupid ideas into actual hardware.

I always imagined this portrait was made right after Euler washed his hair, and it’s just a towel.

Try saying Tibet on a bus stop, and watch your ass getting hauled to the nearest police station in like 30 seconds.

Some rich dude paid a lot of money to have an engraved gunspear, with a fancy tactical cutout in the blade (a totally functional feature to make it more lethal by increasing blood flow, and not at all decorative, I assure you).

Who would benefit from disrupting Ubuntu sofrware updates? Seems related to the recently discovered kernel vulnerability. Some state-funded cybercrime unit needs a bit more time to infect your servers before you update them.

It comes with a copy of Internet Explorer, and a copy of MS-DOS.

Wow, that was an intense self-diacovery.

They do use radioactive decay in archeology to measure time, but the precision is within a thousand years.

I’m not falling asleep, my laptop is falling asleep.

The problem is that it never wakes up. The solution is to disable every low-power option in system settings, and pretend that my laptop is very critical server, because Debian is made for servers.
