Why tf we need drones? We need billionaires to pay taxes and basic necessities to be funded from that.

😮‍💨 yes, steam is a monopoly. Each purchase first loses 30% of it to steam! That is a massive cut! Developers and Publishers wouldn't publish there if they had a choice.

Yes, they have so many great features and help Linux and yadaya... that is them showing their monopolistic power. Having everyone's main pc library + store + events + now hand held is them extending their grasp throughout the industry. Grow big and wide and heavy, crushing alternatives

Developers already hurt from the 30% fee. And one day, consumers will feel it too. The monopoly will stop giving a f about them, as their is no reason to, and the company y will be hollowed out for billionaire gain

He works for billionaires. This is just a virtue signal to make it look like he could be taxing AI when really it's a regressive tax that would hurt poor people the most and further save his voter base: billionaires.

So he will never push a genuine wealth tax, but he will push red herrings.

 

Someone just shared them with me! Super good music and cool to hear and see something so unique! The guitarist literally was turning pedal knobs with his toes and playing extra frets, so they are pretty legit.

As a rust-curious dev, what are the benefits to using it in Godot? Does the game run any faster than if it were programmed in CO# or GD script? Is web more stable with it?

I switched this year from windows: overall really well. Although, I work in a couple apps (R Studio, Unity) that are just not friendly with Linux (neither are terrible but neither are as smooth as alternatives). And had some compatibility issues with certain gamepads.

Oh that's crazy! I had no idea it was a PWA. Im using Voyager downloaded from f-droid but it's fun to hear that the core of this is a web app

Nope - if there are swathes who say they want to switch to Linux but 'don't commit', that just reveals there is a real gap where Linux needs to be easier for people to install and use on a daily basis.

Most people don't want to be a mechanic, they just want a car
