I mean, every vending machine can be hacked. Paywalled, so I can’t see if there’s something unique about this vending machine, but if it’s got any sort of onboard computer (which pretty much every vending machine does), then it can be accessed, and it can be bypassed.

How many of those developers are also hardware manufacturers, though? Because that’s what we’re talking about.

The Big Three all do this.

Warframe is a bit similar to Destiny in that it’s built around multiplayer, but most of the main content can be solo’d if you wanted. But that said, the Warframe community is still thriving, so it should be pretty easy to find a group to play with if you want to avoid the in-game matchmaking.

!trendingcommunities@feddit.nl and !newcommunities@lemmy.world are probably good starters.

It actually makes quite a lot of sense if you think about it. Poems generally follow a structure of some sort; a certain amount of syllables per line, a certain rhyming scheme, alliterative patterns, etc. Most poems as we know them are actually rather formulaic by nature, so it seems only natural that a computer would be good at creating something according to a set of configured parameters.

F-Zero GX is still one of my favorite racing games. The cross-progression with the arcade version, F-Zero AX, was also really cool, though it was nearly impossible trying to find one of those machines. I found one in Vegas a long time ago and it was a blast. Probably not worth the $5 per credit, though, but still very fun.

I really wish Nintendo would revisit the series again. Or at the very least, let another studio make one. It’s been too long.

Not sure why you got downvoted, you’re absolutely right. While Nintendo is prolific in this subject, they’re far from unique.

I guess my private server and open source appview conntected to the ATprotocol are a conspiracy theory then?

No, but they exist at the whim of Bluesky. Having multiple endpoints on your network doesn’t make it decentralized, if every endpoint is controlled by a single entity. This is an important distinction, because Bluesky can prevent a specific instance from interacting with the entire ATProto network, something which is not possible on ActivityPub, as there is no such authority who can completely shut down anybody else’s instance.

Liberal voters wanted Bernie. The DNC did not.

Liberals already tried to get Bernie on the ticket in 2016, but the DNC fucked us on that.

Bluesky is not decentralized, stop calling it that.

Yeah you know me

You just convinced me to buy a Mac.

It’s literally one of the top 10 most trafficked websites.

White Mexicans are a thing. It’s kinda why they speak Spanish.

Journalists have no clue what AI even is. Nearly every article about AI is written by somebody who couldn’t tell you the difference between an LLM and an AGI, and should be dismissed as spam.

They’re usually put in the game’s credits. The promotional material is part of the game even if it isn’t on the disc, it isn’t some separate project that exists in a vacuum.

The author says “think about it”, but clearly he didn’t.

Don’t forget, the US has nukes. We’re everybody’s problem.

I wonder if it’s a licensing thing. I know a few of these games had heavy use of licensed music, like Jet Set Radio and Crazy Taxy. At least, the original versions did, I’m not sure if that’s the case for the Steam ports.

they have to reinvest most of them into the company and it’s employees.

In theory, this would be true. But in Mozilla’s case, “reinvesting into its employees” means giving the CEO a pay raise in the same year they did huge layoffs. They may be not-for-profit on paper, but the actions from their execs are exactly the same as you’d see from any other for-profit corp. Being not-for-profit is just an excuse for shitty business practices and doesn’t change anything in any significant way, imo.
