hollyberries@lemmy.blahaj.zonetoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•Taylor sends her regardsEnglish1·1 year agoFrom my understanding, TS is dating a football player. I’m sure that sent some people off the deep end.
hollyberries@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Programming@programming.dev•Can one be too dumb for programming?English42·1 year agoI suck at math and believe that if you can think critically and solve problems, you can program. It is possible to learn how to break down a mathematical formula into its components and have the computer compute. You can’t proof your work on your own at first, but there are tools that can.
Depending on what you’re doing, you may even learn the math as you go like I did with game dev and vector math. Like any skill, it takes practice.
No mention of xsnow? I’m getting old hehe

hollyberries@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Games@lemmy.world•Court rules Gabe Newell must appear in person to testify in Steam anti-trust lawsuitEnglish53·2 years agoI can see why Steam seems to have a monopoly on PC gaming. Pretty much everybody uses Steam as a launcher and store, and Valve has seen success with the Steam Deck so thats the hardware field also covered. They even managed to upset Nintendo when the Switch emulator was showcased lol.
A good size of the fanbase are also massive Valve fanboys, so there is a lot of brand loyalty, making the service have a larger presence than others.
At the end of the day, the fact remains is that there are other storefronts, launchers, and Valve has even opened up the Steam Deck’s specs and OS. Theres like, no monopoly there. I hope the parent commenter can eventually see that.
hollyberries@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Games@lemmy.world•Court rules Gabe Newell must appear in person to testify in Steam anti-trust lawsuitEnglish544·2 years agoWhat monopoly? If I have to choose between GOG, Steam, Epic, Ubisoft, Blizzard, Rockstar, EA, and others I am going with the least user-hostile, and the one that has Linux support.
Steam is the only one that actually cares about the quality of a service, so maybe look at that instead of crying monopoly.
hollyberries@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Europe@feddit.de•Venice rolls out day-tripper fee to try to regulate mass crowds on peak weekendsEnglish36·2 years agoThe article says €5 “apiece” which is €60 for the whole family unless I’m wrong in my understanding? Enough money flows into the local economy without tourists needing to be forced to “contribute” even further. Thus, hostile.
Venice has been pointing to longer-term tourists as key to its survival since they tend to spend more. Brugnaro said in no way does the new day-tripper contribution discourage tourism overall, but just seeks to manage it better.
We tend to stay in Italy for 2 or 3 weeks at a time, with our lodging being in between multiple destinations in the surrounding regions. Venice is off the table if it is an extra €60 per day. It would also cost significantly more in terms of travel if lodging was also in Venice. We would rather spend the money in Piran or Koper, so the “contribution” is doing its job in managing.
For what its worth, even though we are Dutch, we refuse to visit Amsterdam for the same reason and instead stay in the surrounding cities. A tourist tax is simply a local government giving up on finding real solutions and instead is hoping to price people out of visiting. If Venetians are really worried about sinking, they can ask us for help. We have a bit of experience with keeping the sea away 😅

Vacations are expensive enough without the added tourist tax.

hollyberries@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Godot@programming.dev•How did you first discover Godot, and what motivated you to start using it for game development?English3·2 years agoI started around the 2.x days not long after switching from Windows. At the time I was using gamemaker studio 1,6 and it would not launch so i went on a search for “free open source game engine” and a bunch of videos from Bastiaan Olij were at the top of search so I gave it a try.
Its been a ride. :)
I had the same issue and used MenuLibre to hide the entire lsp directory.
hollyberries@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Linux@lemmy.ml•Best lesser-known distribution/DE for low-end machines?English2·2 years agoI’m afraid I can’t answer that, It’s been quite a while. I think qutebrowser is the one that ships with it?
UltiMC launcher - no torrents needed. Its a “cracked” fork of MultiMC launcher. If having a custom name and skin are important, it supports ely.by.
