Gears 5 is still a tour de force of how to do a modern game. It's got cosmetics, customization, an acceptable (but not great) story, decent PvP, and imo the absolute best PvE. Nothing has managed to dethrone horde in 5+ years

I'd still say the Gears franchise owns the shooter coop throne. Every game in the series supports at least 2 player, with 3 & judgement being 4 player, and 5 being 3 player. And they go out of their way to make coop different than regular campaigns too; there are several points, usually one in each level, where you have to split up

I wish more people would hold Sam Altman's feet to the fire, hold him to some semblance of accountability. Because the man has made an entire career of failing upwards, from launching a short lived startup that imploded, to suddenly becoming president of ycombinator, to suddenly being worth billions of dollars, and literally paying people in the third world (with monopoly money, of course) for their eyeballs

Oh and there's the whole thing where he might have molested his kid sister, which is always seemingly glossed over

Even Ed Zitron, who isn't afraid to go after someone (see his articles about the guy who destroyed Google search) seems to handle Sam with kid gloves

I think they're talking about self moderation. Maybe augmented "mod services" that you could subscribe to and pick and choose from, as well as override in the "yes I actually want to see this" sense

I still reach for sass for a lot of things, but now you don't have to, which is really nice

But now who will donate pretend coats for the virtually needy?!

Nope, they still use bog standard gCode, but they do have some custom commands for things that are unique to the printer

You can run and save custom gCode on Bambu printers. I've got a cold pull script that lives happily on my x1c, and can be triggered any time

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

And even the closed source nature is only partially so. The x1c already has x1+ firmware, and they just made their own custom expansion board to go with the custom firmware.

If it's your first printer, the Bambu a1 will give you a ridiculous amount of bang for your buck. I'd highly recommend it

We seriously need a way to sandbox apps, where they cant see shit outside their sandbox

Not only that, but with toolchains like deno, it's almost enjoyable

I wrote some telegram bots in deno and it's got one of the cleanest deploy chains around, just compile to an executable for the target architecture, and SCP it over. Exec is statically linked, and so it just works
