Some services even have an option to only share a dummy email and not your real. Apple for example does this, so all the site gets is "36382618161@apple.com" (don't know the exact format). And it is only tied to your real email address on apple's side

And will they donate back even one percent of the fees they would have paid so the open source software can be maintained. Naaaaaah!

Well to be fair slack is quite expensive, and getting worse every year. Both in price and usability.

And massive subsidies, don't forget those

Peak capitalism!

No, it really isn't dope. It is okish, there are far worse but also far better. But the whole idea of forcing people to learn a new language is bad, and needs to stop. We do not need more languages, we need better languages.

• Indent based flow control is a massive fail right from the start.
• No short ternary expressions (there is a convoluted one), which is something you do super often. Makes no sense to not include it. Just because you can abuse things is not a reason to not include them.
• Lambda functions only exist on a select few, and not as native. Instead you call them with another method name.
• Some confusing naming, for example class vs class_name which means completly different things. The latter should have been something other than class with a name suffix.

All in all, it is not bad. But certain aspects of it are not that good. The main point is that forcing people to learn a new language raises the bar of entry a lot. I think that is one of the things Unity got right, for the most part they used microsoft java (aka C#), with all its warts.

Speaking of which, if there are native bindings. Why does the .net version even exist as a separate download? And why aren't there bindings for other languages? At least I haven't seen any, everyone just says "use gdscript. C# version is older and not well maintained"

If there are first class bindings, then great.

Edit: I would be very happy if there was a way to write in typescript, lua, perl, c# (without .net), etc.. even if I had to drop in a plugin to support it.

Personally I would really like it if they just exposed an API/bindings style and let people write in pretty much any language they want. Gdscript is okish, but not more than that. Forcing a new language with all it quirks is not the way to go.

Now I know it would be a lot of work to do so, but I hope they will at some point.

I think it is a theee way tie between that one, faster fifi! and the Jade Godall tramp one

All two letter TLDs are exclusive to countries. So unless you make a country called Ergostan and Dbaseistan and get them internationally recognised you are out of luck. However, if you manage you don't have to pay the fee!

I don't remenber actually, maybe if you don't have enough fuel? But I found the biggest problem was that it got destroyed by meteors rather than fuel issues.

Mostly going back and forth between planets I found to be annoying. I liked the different worlds (some more than others), but the traveling and time suck made it annoying.

Also the space ship introduced a way to get stuck without save scumming, which the base game didn't have. Or at least not nearly as bad, if you went out into the wilderness you could get a lot of biters on you but it was less of a problem. If you started a journey between two planets and your craft wasn't good enough you basically had to just load a previous save. Afaik there was no "oh dear, this going bad. Let me turn back", which well to be fair is realistic.

I didn't like all the back and forth between planets. Just not my play style I guess.

I don't think the expansion is bad, and I support the factorio devs in making a really good game. I just personally didn't get sucked into it.
