You are allowed to charge for most libre-licensed software, but of course in practice if it's popular enough somebody else will just build it and undercut you.

I do wish there were more institutions funding FOSS work though it can be hard to measure the benefits and progress for individual projects.

Yeah I guess you could argue that not encrypting or obfuscating the binary makes it a bit faster to create a pirated version but it doesn't really effect piracy rates beyond that.
I'm just happy to see a FOSS engine being noticed as important to the game's success.

Yeah unfortunate. At least the first comments there corrected them.

You know the "vibes" of different models - when to use

Would that be a vibe-rater?

Debian is great, though I do wish they'd make it easier for new users to find their unofficial live image/installers since booting the desktop of your choice with no hassle is great:

Sleep isn't even our power source (that would be food), it's just our garbage collection routine. We leak so much memory that it can take a 3rd of a day to clean it all up. That's how terribly inefficient we are.

..and this is the reason I added this to my root .bashrc:
export PS1="\h:\$(realpath .)\$ "
no more following symlinks on a remote mount and forgetting about it.

There have been some efforts to mitigate this by adding warnings where appropriate. But that doesn't stop certain people from ignoring those warnings and typing "Yes, do as I say!" and bricking their install anyway.

See if a teacher did that for real today nobody there would laugh.
Not because it isn't funny but because most of them can't read and wouldn't get it! 🥁

Are you going to notice a decent performance improvement? Probably not unless your card or drivers are currently not working properly.

Will driver updates and configuration be a lot less of a hassle? Most likely yes!

 

The artwork looks great, but I can see why Escapist called it "Sarah Contra 3"

 

Such a wide variety in visual styles really shows off how flexible the engine has become!

We might not have a ton of Linux native e-sport games but DOTA2 is still going strong and the TI Main Event is a lot of fun to watch!

 

Short but cute game, was neat to see the video at the end showcasing the steps the developers went through to create it.

 

Pretty fun colony/resource game. It's a nice twist that you actually play as the computer in the ship instead of some ethereal colony director. Though it's pretty easy to start seeing your colonists as resources instead of beings you are supposed to protect, especially if you install the Asimov override chip..

 

I remember playing the original Windward and it was fun though it stopped getting updates before it could get really good. I tried the demo of this new sequel and it looks like it could be pretty fun.

I got through all the demo levels for this, not sure my brain can handle the full version yet but it was well designed.

 

Love to see more benchmark apps, the few we've had don't all get updated that often.

 

I only just discovered that efficiency modules work in biochambers to reduce nutrient cost! Such a game changer for Gleba.
