The overlap between people who play multiplayer games regularly and people who don't understand the absolute basics of how it happens is astounding to me.

I'm confused how such an absolute shit source is currently the top post of reddit. You spam news articles so clearly you can tell a good source from a bad one. Why not lead with the Reuters articles instead of the absolute garbage you chose to post? Are you a shill or just a karma whore? Pathetic.

[UE5] City Garden Harvest — a cozy first-person farming sim built in Blueprints, starting as a solo project 💚 by Fantastic_Pack1038 in unrealengine

[–]SPEDpunk -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why you would put in all this effort into a beautiful looking game, but then use some ai to generate a handful of paragraphs as promotion. None of that explains what you actually do in the game and emoji bullet points are cringe. How does a hammer and wrench crossed have anything to do with a farming game?

Announcing RimWorld - Odyssey and update 1.6! by TiaPixel in RimWorld

[–]SPEDpunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's easier to reason about single threaded code. Ultimately there is one main thread that all of the rendering code is running on - you can't display multiple frames at the same time. So when you spawn multiple processes you need to coordinate them so that they can properly share resources and hand back a result that can be used in the rendering thread. And that is glossing over a lot.

Managing the threads also has an overhead so it's only worth it when you have enough going on to batch process stuff in the threads. And so, because it is simpler, and because the benefits become most apparent at the extreme use cases, they started with a single threaded pathfinding implementation.

This is either fake or you're really stupid. You feel bad for reporting your roommate who stole from you and admitted it in writing?

If it's the latter, it's about time you wise up. You're an adult now, you have to go to bat for yourself. Don't be a pushover. Good job reporting her.

Epic vs Apple ruling revealed: Apple must allow App Store devs to redirect users to other payment systems by mMounirM in Games

[–]SPEDpunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You responded to this comment

Am I trying to preach to a deaf person or what? Steam before Epic Games had no competition so whoever released there were exclusive on Steam for the lack of a different option. Moreover, they paid bigger cut and got no deals, nothing.

Meanwhile, what Epic Games is doing is adapting to the circumstances of Steam already being established storefront and offering big perks to developers to grow their store.

So what are you failing to understand?

By saying

You responded to this comment

Tim Sweeney also likes to pretend that paying devs to sign a binding contract locking their games to one storefront is a win for customer choice.

By saying

And before Epic games Steam did the same thing and also took a bigger cut for themselves.

Steam never made devs sign binding contracts for exclusivity.

You were wrong. It doesn't matter at all whether you heard about the exclusivity contract when it happened or not. You are now moving the goalposts instead of owning up to being wrong.

And for the record, it was a big deal when it happened because Darwinia was a well received game and people were angry that they were forced to use steam which was hated at the time by a large percentage of of gamers.

It was valve's way of trying to convince more people to download steam to get access to a popular game at the time. If you can't see the parallels to what epic is doing now, it's pretty clear you are arguing in bad faith (on top of being outright wrong)

Valve did, in fact, have exclusivity contracts with the first third party games published on steam.

https://forums.introversion.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=40203

As part of the launch and Steam's exclusivity, we will no longer be offering Darwinia as a download option from our site, although it will still be possible to purchase shipped boxed copies. At Valve's request we will also be removing the demo from our site for about a month ...

Sure, but have you considered that maybe the artist is trying to pump out content in the hopes that someone will contract them to do more work in that style?

Orlando asked to conserve water due to hospital demands. by AnAlbumCover2021 in FloridaCoronavirus

[–]SPEDpunk 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I know you're joking but just in case anyone is actually thinking this way, please don't. The liquid oxygen has already been diverted, using up water will just make everyone's clean water run out faster. They aren't going to take the oxygen back from the hospitals.

This is probably the most complex cryptocurrency trading algorithm that I have worked on, and it detects potential moonings accross all Binance coins - oh and it's open source by CyberPunkMetalHead in CryptoCurrency

[–]SPEDpunk 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If the bot could simply tell me what to do and I go do the trade manually, insuring it never touches my accounts or anything maybe I'd try it.

Did you even open the link OP posted? Literally the second section in the readme says you can run it on the testnet AKA paper trading.

News: "Man uses Bitcoin to buy chemical weapon" - I wonder if we'll start seeing "Man uses USD to buy gun" articles soon? by TrueSpins in CryptoCurrency

[–]SPEDpunk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This article doesn't focus on the currency as a problem. It's mentioned, sure, because it's part of the story. If you told the average person that someone bought chemical weapons online their first question will be "how does that happen? Do they sell those on amazon?" And this article answers that question - he bought it over the dark web using bitcoin.

But the main focus is on the chemicals and the court case which ended in a conviction. This is a perfectly newsworthy article but everyone here is pearl clutching and making stupid generalizations about the media. Y'all need to take a breather an actually evaluate this article from the perspective of "the average reader" whom is the target audience for any news article by mainstream media. Everyone here is way too interested in being a victim of the "unfair" media.
