Regardless where one lives in Europe (including countries where salaries are lower than those living in France or Germany for example: such as Hungary, Romania, Latvia or Serbia to name a few) yet they're confronted with 89,99€ at release considering EVERYONE in Europe as wealthy (further from the truth since there are nations in Europe where people aren't paid 8000€ a month, some are paid x10 less than that).

Regional pricing is indifferent in this case no matter as to their actual income, it's weird since they count countries where Euros aren't used (Czech Republic, Romania, Serbia) whilst people there aren't earning high salaries, like this: a Romanian earns 815€ a month but are treated no different: a 90€ game at launch (about 10% of their wage), for some reason they don't bother adjusting it based on a specific country.

Having spent the bulk of my handheld gaming time with the Steam Deck, it was a bit of a shock last year to discover that PC gaming isn’t just possible on Android phones and retro handhelds, it’s powering on in leaps and bounds.

I’ve seen so many different games running beautifully, from older AAA titles like Tomb Raider and Prey (2017), all the way to more demanding ones like RDR2 and even Cyberpunk 2077 (no surprise that the last one is still an imperfect experience, as things stand...but it is possible!).

GameNative lets you play all manner of PC games on Android from GOG, Epic, and Steam.

I reached out to my friend Utkarsh, who is the lead developer of GameNative to ask if he wanted to share his story and let me interview him.

His background in development and gaming through to how GameNative started and is built, all the way to what the future might bring for his program. This is an interview on what I think might be at least part of the future of handheld gaming, and I hope you find this interesting:

Today’s game is Super Mario 3D World. Let me tell you. This game was an absolute nightmare to setup. I love having the physical cartridges, but holy fuck do I lose them easily when I have family members that borrow them. I managed to find it though, and then couldn’t find my switch 1. One of my family members has a Switch 2 they never use though that rots in the living room, so I swiped that and just played with that. Thankfully it’s backwards compatible with the Switch 1.

I don’t play this game often, mainly because the depth of the levels is hard for me to tell apart. I struggle with it. I did 100% 3D Land but that was offset by the 3D slider making it easier to tell the landscape apart.

I got some friends together for this one too as this game feels like a multiplayer game. The multiplayer is fun. They really knew what made the New Super Mario Bros game’s multiplayer fun: Being able to fuck each other over. We threw each other off so many cliffs. It was a blast.

Overall I enjoy this game. It was the first major brush I had with it. There’s something that feels a bit awkward about it though. Like they had the idea of making a 2D-3D Mario game but didn’t know how to execute it right. So they got really close and said “good enough”. I think it’s namely the camera angle, but i don’t fully know. I would like to do this more with friends though. Friends definitely make everything fun but this especially was a blast.

Une étude inédite menée auprès de plus de 1 000 livreurs de plateformes révèle leurs conditions de travail indignes.

Mercredi 22 avril, des associations d’aide aux livreurs de repas ont déposé une plainte au pénal pour « traite d’êtres humains » visant les plateformes Deliveroo et Uber Eats - une démarche inédite en France. Nous republions à cette occasion cet article sur une étude décrivant les conditions de travail indignes de cette population, sur le pont plus de 63 heures par semaine, six à sept jours sur sept, pour un revenu très inférieur au seuil de pauvreté.

I believe it's a way away from consumerism if you don't own everything yourself and share things with people nearby.

I'm looking for a selfhostable (docker-compose) project where everybody can easily add items (maybe with a link to a manual) and the borrowing stuff is manged.

OIDC is a plus because it's to great with pocket-id.

Hi everyone

I posted here awhile ago about something similar but wanted to ask a follow up question.

If I got a 1.111b class xyz domain for my NAS, would that have any issues?

Its mainly just going to be so family and friends can access my jellyfin.

I saw its ten bucks for ten years on their site so its a great price. I'd rather than than 20 bucks a year.

Thank you

Death to them all

Two gamers have filed a class action lawsuit against Nintendo, alleging that the company will be unjustly enriching itself with any refund it secures from the U.S. government over widespread tariffs last year that, among other things, hiked the prices of Nintendo hardware and accessories.

“Unless restrained by this Court, Nintendo stands to recover the same tariff payments twice—once from consumers through higher prices and again from the federal government through tariff refunds, including interest paid by the government on those funds,” the suit states.

And all that data does by definition exclude: “AI” is not built on “all of humankind’s knowledge” but based on whatever a mostly western view of the world and what is relevant looks like. Cultures who are not within that framework, who might even be based on more oral forms of keeping history and knowledge are not represented. Even if those groups are not actively excluded (which again they very often are) there are huge populations who just are not seen by the data do not get a say in how they are represented. Or if they are represented it’s just as problems: Think about unsheltered people for example.

The right loves those patterns because they confirm their prejudices: Ask an image generator for a picture of two people kissing and you most often get a heterosexual couple, often white. Because that’s what the training data looks like. That makes “AI” perfect for creating the form of idealized, fictional “past” that fascists love to allude to (“make America great again“), a past that never existed but that needs to be saved or restored (we’ll get back to that later).

....

we can pretty easily determine the short-term purpose of “AI”: The destruction of labor power.

This dismantling happens on multiple levels by attacking the foundation of what allows those forms of organization to take place.

The first level is very individualistic: By pointing at “the AI” that can replace a worker that worker is pressured into working harder, not asking for raises or any other improvements of their working conditions. Even though “AI” cannot do your job, the threat itself is useful to employers to undermine your individual power, your feeling of being valuable as a worker.

The second level is about attacking the idea of solidarity and connection: Because “AI” will not replace you (again, “AI” cannot replace the absolute majority of workers!) “but someone using AI will”. This sets up kind of a Thunderdome in which we all have to fight against each other for scraps/jobs. This framing implies that you should not unionize and connect with your fellow workers but that you should see them as your enemies, as the people who will take your job and your ability to provide for your family. We know this dynamic, it’s exactly how the right presents migration as “attack”. It also normalizes violence again turning all of existence into an endless fight against one another (unless you are one of the few people in power of course).

The third level is somewhat more devious. Because it makes us do that form of dissolving of social bonds ourselves. An example: If I use an “AI” to generate an illustration instead of asking a designer I am saying that while my skills and labor has value, that of the designer has not. This implicitly cuts my ability to form connections of solidarity with designers whose work and livelihood I have implicitly declared irrelevant. It makes me put myself over my fellow workers, workers who are facing the same struggles as me, who are my comrades. But no more.
