I think you're thinking 4 year college, not 2 years. It takes a lot of effort and money to apply to a 4 year school. It takes like 5 minutes to apply at your local community college online and get a .edu email address, and it's free.

Using .edu as some sort of validation is a terrible idea because it's something anyone can get with just a few minutes of work.

No, it's incredibly easy to get a .edu account.

Getting a free .edu account is trivial.

No dedicated servers yet.

EDIT: dedicated server files have now been released.

EDIT2: They changed the terms of self hosting. It's crap. I'm getting a refund.

Steam cleaning urine is a bad idea. The heat will cause it to bind to the carpet even better and make it even harder to get rid of.

Some of those comments are vile. Oh, foxnews... makes sense.

Hopefully being a community thing and not a corporate thing will help. I think people will be less likely to steal, and more likely to rat someone out for stealing.

It really depends on what you use. There are tools that will extract the different data streams inside the containers and you could add them to a different (compatible) container... However if you use some sort of converter tool, it may just read the data stream, decompress it and decompress it again which would under the best circumstances lose quality to it's size.

There are 2 separate concepts I think you may be trying to merge into 1.

There are File Formats (also called Container format), like Audio Video Interleave, which is commonly identified with the .avi file extension, and Matroska Multimedia Container, which is commonly identified with the .mkv file extension. They define the structure and organization of data within a file. Ex the audio data starts at offset X, the video data starts at offset Y, en_us subtitles start at offset....... etc.

Then there are Encoding Formats, like AV1, h.264, HEVC. These are algorithms that can be used to compress video for storage within a file and decompress the data within a file for display.

The procedural generation stuff looks amazing. It's really nice that they are tackling it and making it available to smaller devs.
