These two games are both really good though. Infuriating that the nemesis system got patented.
I stole it too lol
CS degrees, at least in my experience, prep you for a bunch of things that honestly don't matter too much. Like, I don't think knowing what P versus NP means really helps me at my job. I think learning to use build tools and frameworks rather than just the language itself would've been more useful.
The best professor I had in that regard at college was younger and also working at a "real" company while also teaching (I believe he was getting a master's degree). He taught us about Spring and Maven and had us make a REST API. The only downside is that this course was about making GUIs and the majority of it was about Swing which nobody really uses. I have a feeling he added the other assignment because it was.more relevant to things most folks do with Java.
The look and feel of an application really does matter a lot. When Reddit's API got shut down and I couldn't use RIF anymore I tried using Reddit's own app. It sucked. It felt awful. It's extremely possible that if Reddit's app felt close to something I was used to I wouldn't have ended up swapping to Lemmy. So, if we want people to use Mastodon instead of Threads, why are you upset someone is making an app that uses Mastodon while looking like Threads?
You're right, let's cool things down. This is definitely something I feel strongly about and I've been stressed the past day or so. It's possible some of that anger slipped out in my phrasing.
When I say "Fuck Chromium based browsers" I don't mean to imply something like "Fuck you for using them," even though I do believe you shouldn't use them. It's not that serious. But I see how saying "Fuck the thing you chose" followed by "Don't use that thing" can feel way too aggressive. I'm sorry that it felt like I was attacking you personally. ❤️
I don't really care too too much about privacy. If they get rid of the Pocket button then I'd be happy enough.
Chromium is open source. Google Chrome is not open source.
Yes, though they could remove it. If they're open source then you could check easily.
2036 if they don't extend it. It was granted in 2021.
