  • Itch.io was taken down by funko pop

  • How does one steal Funko Pop's IP? Create an ugly figure with a giant head and no face? Is that so common that they need an AI system to watch for IP infringement?

    If a company wanted to get into the figure business, maybe they could just make figures that look good, and thus avoid infringing Funko Pop's style.

  • You literally just need to go into the discussion boards for trending games or check out the curation pages for groups like “DEI watch.”

    I just spent 10 minutes doing both of these things and didn't see any questionable content.

    I did see gamers saying things like "this game sucks", but nothing worse.

    At this point I think you should provide a link to an example.

  • Throttling everyone equally during times of congestion is also fair in its own way. I'd be okay with that.

  • When limiting is required, because many people are using the same network, limiting those who have already used the most seems fair.

  • Your comment might cause me to do something. You're responsible. I don't care what the legal definitions say.

    If we don't care about legal definitions, then how do we know you didn't cause all this?

  • What if I specify the wrong type? let retrieved = storage.get::<SomeOtherType>();?

    Is it a runtime error or a compile time error?

  • Epic vs Google turned out a lot different than Epic vs Apple.

    Also, Epic vs Google was decided by jury.

  • I haven't written any Java since Java 6. This makes me so happy to hear.

    What about XML, and XML based configs? Is the Java ecosystem still obsessed with XML?

    I remember I was once trying to learn Hibernate. After finding what I thought looked like the best tutorial, I skimmed through it and there was literally no Java code in the tutorial about a Java library! It was all XML! I never could understand it, but this was early in my career, maybe I could handle it now, maybe not.

  • I don't know. That's what I was saying. I can't possibly imagine what I could say to help someone understand that error message.

    😉

  • If you can't understand that error message then I don't know what to tell you.

  • The rumored 4th and 5th games...

  • We're seeing more and more that our "free market" with its "competition" doesn't provide goods and services that most people want, which makes me wonder, why have free markets and competition?

  • At least C++ build tools are easier than modern JS.

  • There's also websites hosted in countries that don't care about US law. We can access those even without a VPN, for now...

  • That's a good example. If I'm regularly running a command that is a single whitespace character away from disaster, that's a problem.

    Imagine a fighter aircraft that had an eject button on the side of the flight stick. The pilot complains "I'm afraid I might accidentally hit the eject button when I don't need to", but everyone responds "why would you push the eject button if you don't want to eject?", or "so your concern is that the eject button will cause you to eject...?" -- That's how I feel right now.

  • Just checked my command history and I've run 60,000 commands on this computer without problem (and I have other computers). I guess people have different ideas of what "comfortable" means, but I think I consider myself comfortable with the command line.

    I have shot myself in the foot with rm -rf in the past though, and screwed up my computer so bad the easiest solution was to reinstall the OS from scratch. My important files are backed up, including most of my dotfiles, but being a bit too quick to type and run a rm -rf command has caused me needless hours of work in the past.

    I realized the main reason I have to use rm -rf is to remove git repos and so I thought I'd ask if anyone has a tip to avoid it. And I've found some good suggestions among the least upvoted comments.

  • Linux @lemmy.ml

    Can I remove a git repo without resorting to rm -rf ?

  • Memes @lemmy.ml

    At least we looked up from our own cellphones long enough to do something

  • Programmer Humor @lemmy.ml

    Can anyone relate?
