  • I've been playing Tomb Raider 2013, I'm 6 hours in and I think I'm already bored. The gameplay loop is unfortunately rather repetitive: platforming, stealth, kill tens of assailants while crouching behind cover, platforming, stealth, kill tens of...

  • Finally! I have been waiting for a PC port for so many years! I might have to buy and replay Part I tho, I haven't played it since its release on PS3... 11 years ago?!

  • Yeah, the janky foundation made me and my boss wish we chose Java for the back-end multiple times. I like async / await (or coroutines in Kotlin-land), it's easier to wrap my head around than Promises / Futures and I thought I would miss Reactive Programming, but not that much.

  • Yet, people willingly choose to use one of the most horrific ecosystems out there.

    So far I have heard the following explanations for going full-stack JS

    • Ability to re-use business logic in back-end and front-end
    • Reduced context switching (though with frameworks that's less true)
    • You don't have to recruit developers proficient in your back-end language in addition to Javascript

    Personally, having worked on a full-stack Typescript project for the past year, I kinda miss the maturity of Java's ecosystem: there is usually one mature and well-maintained library that does its job really well ; while in Javascript-land there are multiple libraries for a single job, each with varying quality and maturity, and most of them are no longer maintained.

  • I just want to build cool things and have fun.

  • It's amazing how PC Gamer are able to spin lenghty articles out of a couple of sentences from the Half-Life 2 20th Anniversary documentary. It's the third one so far according to my own count.

  • I wonder how long we will have to wait for Macron to name the next Prime Minister. Anyone willing to bet for a nomination before 2025?

  • You are not the first one suggesting that, I have been dual booting Linux for 10+ years and open-source support for WMR headset is very barebones.

  • Inside Job. Canceling a series when there's a cliffhanger should be illegal!

    Also, Windows Mixed Reality, my VR headset is going to become a paperweight when I'll be forced to migrate off Windows 10 in a year.

  • This is not the first time Ecclestone has parted company with some of his collection. In 2007 he offered 50 cars for sale by auction via RM Sothebyโ€™s, including a 1928 Mercedes SSK roadster and a 1939 Lancia Astura cabriolet reputed to have been owned by Benito Mussolini.

    What the f?

  • This is anecdotal experience, but last time I left Wireguard on for an entire day and it accounted for 5% of battery usage that day.

  • I believe you swapped DoT (TLS, port 853) and DoH (HTTPS) in your message. I have yet to be in a network that restricts port 853, but if I could I would rather use DoH on Android.

  • Not directly, but if the developers would call some global variable set by a third-party library that's blocked by an ad-blocker (say GTM) without checking if said variable is set first, that probably could trigger that error.

  • My main advice would be to get multiple hubs, because your 6 drives would share the same bandwidth. Also hubs with more than 4 ports are in fact multiple hubs chained together because most chips in hubs handle 4 devices at most. So it would be better to spread your drives on as much USB ports as possible.

  • I believe they would need to follow @ap.brid.gy first, which they don't.

  • Who was expecting a crypto-casino sponsor livery for Las Vegas? I sure didn't.

  • Unfortunately you can't follow users on Lemmy. On Kbin, Mastodon and others, you can follow Bluesky users through Bridgy Fed but they must opt-in first by following @ap.brid.gy (which very few people do)

  • The proposed rule in question:

    A proposed regulation that would require teams finishing fifth or higher in the Constructorsโ€™ standings to produce all components in-house
