those random players have gaming pcs

if you sampled 100 blackberry customers at random, they'd absolutely hate a software keyboard

and so on

what the "tfa" doesn't say is that geohot writes like how most people talk. you're framing the observation you don't like around a single word and ignoring everything else.

that's an inaccurate characterization on #1. he's not saying ai risk is _all_ hype to boost valuations, but that it's misused to serve purposes other than warning.

i'd look around /r/gamedev and /r/gamedevclassifieds

fine for prototyping! good news for you is there are a lot of talented people if you are ready to commit.

yes. i am more perceptive of bad art vs bad code. seeing so much bad generated art...everywhere...makes me wonder how much bad code is being put out there. art isn't load-bearing, but code can be.

fun idea and gj execution, but the art looks like bad ai pixel art, at least on my screen. gives it that uncanny youtube music stream look.

i am not ready for our weyland-yutani overlords

agreed, thanks for sharing

we are talking about a lightweight charging cable. you can carry more than one. boom, redundancy. being ideological about a cable connector is the nerdy equivalent of jony ive obsessing over macbook thinness.

do you use android and ios, or is there another benefit to having personal media with both?

ooh thanks for sharing

inexpensive creation and maintenance without having to exploit end users is innovative to me.

i once made the mistake of raising venture capital to help kids. yes, i was twenty something and full of joy. i died a little when an investor told me i was an idiot for not using exploitive growth tactics to addict kids and spam their families. i wish i hadn't needed their money to pursue those ambitious ideas.

can you share how much something like this costs to create and maintain?

lucky kid. please share it here! we'd love to help.

nice, thanks for sharing

removed from app store, sadly

my kid has 50+ hours in sid meier's pirates and told me they stare at the world map in their classroom and try to locate towns and ports in the caribbean when they're bored. i will show your game to them, though i am certain the first thing they will ask for is chain shot.

not to discourage your good work, but here's another project worth checking out if sid meier's pirates is your thing. https://tinywind.io/

yes, nearly every day. i focus much better inside avp. i am lucky to find it comfortable, especially with the dual knit band, but i still take breaks every hour to rest my eyes.

not automatically, but a meaningful step up in ease of use (managing photo/video backup from all family devices) without a subscription would be a solid foundation

because nas hardware and software suck and everything else was a poorly executed subscription product...i think one was called helm, another was by early twitter alumni. imagine a home device that manages and maintains itself and is a joy to interact with.

did they learn why? were there other gains?

if the theft accusation is credible and not a rogue fuck up, then you wonder if a company that authorizes a $200k theft could have some other skeletons in the closet. like the sus $95mm sales claim.

hear cops often say it like that on body cam footage

see, to me, it feels like wuphf.com finding a buyer

it used to coalesce into organized religion and its local institutions. what's new is that those sources of meaning and connection were not explicitly commercial ventures.

i first played 2000 when it was bundled with my family's windows 95 pc, and was sad to learn that gog/steam sell the inferior dos variant. but, yes, 2000 was just right.

you had me at apophenia

true, but the starbucks etc. scenario was already answered above. personal cups shouldn't contact cafe equipment. although i trust peet's/starbucks and not dunkin to actually follow it.

last.fm scrobbling outliving cbs interactive has been unexpected. does anyone know if scrobbling attracts new people, or just keeps the existing user base happy?
