Is it run out of a private residence? How could it happen if it’s in a real data center…?

Seems pretty clear to me. Why would you risk your life if the army doesn’t even want you there?

Yes, Steam takes a cut as well. But the crux of the argument is the monopoly part. You can distribute your game outside of steam - on other app stores, or sell it directly to customers if you want. On iOS, there is literally no other distribution channel. You have to pay Apple and use their thing. That’s the difference.

For what it’s worth, this is also my understanding, as the administrator and operator of this Lemmy instance.

HA-HA, I TOO INGEST CARBOHYDRATES FOR SURVIVAL THROUGH MY FACE ORIFICE. I THEN TRANSPORT MYSELF WITHOUT A SOURCE OF ELECTRICITY. IT IS INDEED CONVENIENT TO BE A BIOLOGICAL BIPEDAL ORGANISM.

As it happens, you shouldn’t trust Lemmy DMs either, as they’re not encrypted and can be read by instance administrators. So don’t use them to say anything that you wouldn’t be okay making public.

Well it’s gonna learn to post crypto spam ads and swastikas then. Which come to think of it… might be the point

The entire summary on Wikipedia is sales guy bullshit. It’s barely comprehensible.

Bruh you dropped this: ^synergize

What the fuck does Dynamics do? Is it some kind of shitty database?

So far I think I can live without Topaz, Photoshop and some other image stuff long term, but to be honest if that turns out to be wrong, I’m inclined to buy a cheap Mac Mini specifically for photo stuff rather than keep Windows around anymore.

So you’re telling me that Grok is so bad that they have to pay developers to integrate it? How backwards. People are willing to pay for Grok’s competitors.

I’ve been dry-running a Linux only world for a few months now, dual booting and running everything on the Linux partition, only using windows when necessary. So far basically all my games run well under proton and the few non-free programs I care about work well enough under wine. I think tomorrow is the day I blow away the windows partition.

That’s kinda my point. Even if Russia tries to order them to make it available, they can’t do so except to Russian users, which defeats the purpose.

Seems like the app stores could derail this by simply not approving the app outside of Russia, which would fall outside of Russia’s jurisdiction to do anything about.

Hi from Lisboa, Portugal… let me tell you, the tourists absolutely know about us. A bit too much…

Is water wet?

Can you summarize/describe it in calm terms to save readers the click?

I don’t get it. Used it for what? Why would they need leaked source engine code to make a mod for the source engine with the official SDK?

Wow, the YouTube account was straight up banned
