Sokoban 2 years ago

Hey cool, I'm building a game inspired by Sokoban where you're tasked with destroying evidence and cleaning up any trace of crime - It's called Hazard Pay.

It started as a game jam entry for Ludum Dare, but after the great feedback I decided it was simple enough to go for a full release.

Building your own Boids simulation wonderful and I can highly recommend it - It's incredible how simple it emulates life so convincingly.

"In the morning when thou risest unwillingly, let this thought be present,—I am rising to the work of a human being. Why then am I dissatisfied if I am going to do the things for which I exist and for which I was brought into the world? Or have I been made for this, to lie in the bed-clothes and keep myself warm?—But this is more pleasant.—Dost thou exist then to take thy pleasure, and not at all for action or exertion? Dost thou not see the little plants, the little birds, the ants, the spiders, the bees working together to put in order their several parts of the universe? And art thou unwilling to do the work of a human being, and dost thou not make haste to do that which, is according to thy nature?"

I've been using Tutanota for years, but now I'm looking to migrate due to the missing IMAP/POP3 Bridge, inability to easily export all emails and slow search performance - Old emails essentially become irretrievable.

No, it's not completely ignored.

What can you do? Register your own domain and run your own SMTP server? Better make sure you renew your domain each year, else... --- You are no more. Don't have $5 per month to lease a VPS and run your SMTP server? --- You are no more. Has your domain gotten on some mail blacklists? --- You are not more.

I had the same concern, this article perfectly captures the problem and gives perspective to the solution Tailwind provides - Thanks for sharing!

Okay, this is interesting.

My WhatsApp profile has been dormant for almost 2 years. Before uninstalling the app, like you, I changed my profile picture to the Signal logo and wrote a similar about section.

My friend just checked my profile, the profile photo was shown briefly before being removed - The about section is also blank.

I have been using the Beta with C#(Mono) since it's release 2 weeks ago on a VR prototype and I've found it very productive.

The rendering performance has significantly improved and there's a bunch of great new components - One new addition which was missing in 3.X is the 'Label3D' Node which enables you to render text in your environment, previously you had to project a spatial position to UI layer.

It's awesome to see Godot 4 come together.

Stoked! I think I'll continue on my Godot VR Project now that Label3D and Textmesh are implemented - Text within the scene is vital for VR Debugging.
