  • Here’s how much Valve pays its staff — and how few people it employs

    Jump

  • Easy to employ so few when you ~dont~ rarely make games anymore

  • Looking for a photo map software

    Jump

  • Okay so it's very much not FOSS (we're talking upwards of a couple hundred $ / month) but Esri's StoryMap feature through their ArcGIS software suite would allow you to do exactly this. Having used StoryMaps though, this is by far the most comprehensive way to do something of this nature. You can upload GPS data directly to the software, export the map to the ArcGIS Online suite, then create a storymap from there. StoryMaps can be panned, animated, zoomed etc to your heart's content.

    Your other solution would be with QGIS, which is FOSS. I don't think they have a StoryMaps analogue, but I've heard "QGIS2WEB" sort of works like that.

    I believe Google Earth Engine also has this capability but it's only free for academic & research use. Also NOT FOSS.

  • Let's discuss: Journey

    Jump

  • I played journey for the first time when it was posted to PC and consequentially went on sale on Steam. Very good game. I tried to connect with the guy who I played the majority of it with but he didn't speak English and I don't speak much Spanish so it kinda fizzled.

  • What's a hobby or interest of yours that you really love explaining to others?

    Jump

  • Oh that's fun to know. Mines at 46k right now.

  • I can definitely check later. The gauge does go up to 160 mph but id be surprised if it can even go 120. Fastest I've gone in it was 90.

    Jump

  • can you tell me something cool about my 2012 Nissan Rogue AWD. I've had it for a few years and I think it's really lame so something cool to use to flex against other people would be awesome

  • What are some games you find yourself frequently coming back to?

    Jump

  • Skate 3 is a fantastic choice.

  • What are some games you find yourself frequently coming back to?

    Jump

  • I have over 4,000 hours across all the trackmania games. So that, I guess. Most is 2,000 in United followed by a couple hundred in all the rest. 1,000 in trackmania 2020

  • If a person from 1700 asked you your job, would they understand your answer, and if not, how would you explain it to them?

    Jump

  • I don't think the people in the 1700s would care

  • If a person from 1700 asked you your job, would they understand your answer, and if not, how would you explain it to them?

    Jump

  • Not even really that but people tend to think that others have just outright stopped making maps. "Haven't we made all the maps already?" Is a common response I get when I tell them. They seem to forget about data analysis and all that.

    Jump

  • "Shopkeeper" would be a pretty damn good job title too compared to retail.

    Jump

  • I'm currently in college to go into GIS (Geographic Information Systems/Science) and lemme tell ya I think more people in 1700 would understand "cartographer" than they would today.

  • I hate the term "Boomer Shooter"

    Jump

  • Oh no boomer shooter means very fast FPS, it just has old-school mechanics like health packs, a large loadout, arena-style gameplay, stuff like that. Things that were considered outdated when games like Battlefield and COD rolled around in the mid 2000s. Like you're not supposed to take cover in DOOM, but you are in Battlefield.

  • I hate the term "Boomer Shooter"

    Jump

  • Those are tactical shooters. If it's a simulator like ARMA then the term "milsim" (military simulator) is also used. Good example of a non-ARMA tactical shooter would be Ready or Not, Squad, Insurgency, or S.W.A.T

  • Announcing Ibis, the federated Wikipedia Alternative

    Jump

  • I don't think they're suggesting wikipedia currently is "best researched and sourced," just that a federated alternative wouldn't automatically solve that issue.

  • Best PS2 games?

    Jump

  • Interesting, I heard cod 3 was the worst one

    Best PS2 games?

  • My Love-Hate Relationship With Lemmy – Gavi's Blog

    Jump

  • I once wondered aloud here about if anybody else had noticed a lot of toxic members from certain communities, only to receive replies from members in those communities claiming that it was all fine and there wasn't any toxicity. Then I'd look at their history and notice they were a very toxic person. From my limited point of view I can say there might be some credence to your statement.

  • Good chair that is affordable ?

    Jump

  • Steer clear of anything that markets itself as being gaming focused. Plenty of middle-of-the-road office chairs provide decent back support and I'd even wager most are better for your long term health than a "gaming" chair. If there's a local office furniture store nearby then I'd check that out. Still might be a bit pricey but I'm sure they have some cheaper options. My current one was like $200 from one of those stores and it's served me very well. Super comfy, much better than my sibling's gaming chair.

  • The NFL is an Abusive Workplace

    Jump

  • Not to mention a large amount of NFL players don't play for very long. A quick Google shows an average player career of just 3.3 years, which is ridiculously short even by modern sports standards. The average goes down depending on which position there is as well. Most other major sports have an average of 5 - 8 years for careers.

    Imagine getting to the NFL and then only staying for a couple years. Sure you're set for life with that paycheck but expecting somebody who's like 24 years old at most to be able to be financially responsible with that money is just absurd.
