I grew up mostly with the PS2 and above and I thought the same thing 😅. I did think there had to be a better way though

I’ve never watched him (I hated him when he would just scream at video games) but he seems to be a lot more mature these days. He even posted a video on why you should switch to Linux recently
NotSteve_@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•The BBC is launching a paywall in the USEnglish61·3 days agoI asked OP to update the title in another comment which they did (and appreciate) but it made this comment of mine confusing 😅. The original title didn’t have any mention of which country. It just said they were adding a paywall
NotSteve_@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•The BBC is launching a paywall in the USEnglish61·3 days agoThe original title just said something like “BBC is now paywalled” making it sound like it applied to more than 1 of the 195 (worldometers.info recognised) countries in the world.
I’m not British but it’d be pretty alarming to hear that the BBC was adding a paywall that applied to the British if I was British

NotSteve_@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•The BBC is launching a paywall in the USEnglish296·3 days agoI love the US defaultism even when they’re talking about another country’s public news station
(edit: the title originally just said it was adding a paywall without mention of any country)
NotSteve_@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•The BBC is launching a paywall in the USEnglish12·3 days agoBBC announced it’s introducing a paywall for consumers in the U.S
It seems like it’s only for the US? If that’s true can you update the title OP
NotSteve_@lemmy.cato Games@lemmy.world•Hytale, once touted as the Minecraft killer, is ceasing developmentEnglish3·4 days agoIt was well known a decade ago in the Minecraft community. Truthfully there’s been very few updates for the last few years so this did seem sort of inevitable. It’s sad though since Minecraft doesn’t have a proper competitor right now (something that isn’t just a Unity asset flip). The promise of true modding support alone was enough to get me excited for it
I guess it’s less the response itself but the response objects in the codebase. The main code base I work on is fully typed Python/FastAPI but we depend on an API from another team that was, up until recently, untyped entirely. The responses were just dictionaries that were dynamically generated randomly in 10 layer deep functions. There was absolutely no way to tell what they would actually return, let alone what types they would be. It’s like, if you see a function that’s just called
get_big_fat_entity_findings()
with no typing, how would you handle that without spending an hour reading through the code line by line? Typing is important for any project that’s bigger than a quick script
Are you the person who’s writing these APIs that just return dynamically generated untyped JSON that I need to deal with on my team at work? Typing absolutely matters and I will die on this hill
Totally get you but it’s open source isn’t it? I don’t think it’ll just die randomly. Especially considering Google uses it themselves

Saaame. I created an account on the new Piefed but I’ll only fully switch over once Voyager supports it. I’ll be sad to lose my two year user history on Lemmy.ca though :(. I wish account migrations that kept comment/post history and account age were supported

I never said cars weren’t leading traffic. I think we’ve both kind of lost the plot here but my point was that cars aren’t a requirement to live. If they are in your city or area (outside of rural), then you should advocate for better transit and urban design.
Also note that I never said cars should be outright banned or anything of that sort
NotSteve_@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Front Brake Lights Could Drastically Diminish Road Accident RatesEnglish22·23 days agoOkay, then advocating for better urban planning and less urban sprawl. Unless you live in a rural area, you shouldn’t be required to go into debt to pay for a multi ton machine to be able to buy food. It’s odd that only in the last hundred years humans have stopped being able to function day to day without vehicles.
NotSteve_@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Front Brake Lights Could Drastically Diminish Road Accident RatesEnglish22·23 days agoSo the answer would be to advocate for better public transport

Edit: From the linked FAQ actually
Does Revolt have federation
As of right now, Revolt does not feature any federation and it is not in our feature roadmap.
However, this does not necessarily mean federation is off the table, possible avenues are:
- Implement our own federation protocol
- Implement a promising up and coming federation protocol, polyproto
- Implement the Matrix protocol (unlikely, obtuse and unstable)
- Implement the XMPP protocol (battle-tested and stable)
Any federation that is implemented MUST exercise caution in:
- Preventing spam and abuse: moderators should be able to block malicious actors
- Protecting user data: users should be able to redact all of their information and messages

You’re getting downvoted but I don’t think Americans realize how irritating their fellow countrymen can be on the internet and in person to non Americans. There’s also the defaultism as if everyone is American (or wants to be American) which gets REALLY tiring after a while
Yuuuup this is my company too. They’re monitoring our GH Copilot /Cursor usage and they’re going to apply to our performance reviews
