Software developer by day, insomniac by night.
Wax paper is great! What I think is so funny about this is that to me wax paper feels more premium. I guess it’s because it’s because plastic is so ubiquitous that despite being an incredible and versatile material, it’s also ridiculously mundane.
No thanks. I’ll pass, forever. I never want this. It feels creepy and gross.
Succinct perfection.
Google has infinite money to throw at shitty projects, and the more marketshare they control the better for them since that just means more data that they can sell, so I can see that happening. I don’t think Mozilla has the same luxury. I’d sooner stick to Safari than use Chrome.
Yeah. The main reason I could think of is if you use Firefox Sync. I actually do have that on my iPad, though it’s rare that I’ll ever open something on my PC and then resume it on my iPad.
This echoes my thoughts. I really suck at writing emails in my native tongue, and having something I can prompt to write an email for me would be useful. I don’t want it to be trained on my emails to replicate my style or whatever, I’d just want an LLM on the side that I can prompt to write for me. I’ve done that with other LLMs in the past without having to integrate it anywhere.
I don’t particularly care for facial recognition. I don’t take photos of people.
That echoes my thoughts.
Well I suppose the question really is; how many Firefox iOS/iPad OS are there in the EU and does that amount of users make it worth maintaining another 1-2 apps for the EU market, while dealing with Apple’s shenanigans? Like Firefox Browser for iOS and iPad, as well as Firefox Focus are already 2 apps, if you want to replace the back-end specifically for the EU you’d have to maintain that back-end, deal with Apple working against you, and maintain separate versions of those apps specifically for the EU.
It’s worth noting that Firefox for iOS is already leaps and bounds behind Firefox for Android in terms of UX. There are features missing that they could add regardless of whether they are using WKWebView or not, but they haven’t, either because Apple doesn’t want competition, or because they don’t consider the Firefox browser on iOS to be particularly high priority.
If the latter, why on Earth would they port Gecko to iOS/iPad OS when a vanishingly small subset of users might use it? I am a European Firefox user, but I don’t use Firefox on iOS because the UX compared to Safari is incredibly lacklustre. Switching the back-end to Gecko wouldn’t do anything to fix that.
I don’t see third party engines making it to the market unless the US also slams down some regulations. How many Firefox users are there in the EU? How many use iOS, and how many of those are likely to use the iOS version of Firefox? Is it worth maintaining two to four separate apps for this?
I’m not sure what you’re asking is even possible, for various reasons. A seed is a value used to generate other values. The procedural map generation in Minecraft is deterministic, meaning that if you provide the same seed, and use the same map generation algorithm, then whenever you generate a world using that seed it will end up identical.
The map generation procedure changes a bit from version to version though, so a seed in the early Java versions of Minecraft won’t map 1:1 to current Java or bedrock versions.
What you’re asking is to draw an approximate map, and from that determine the seed. That feels much more complicated, I’m not sure the process is reversible.
That said, I’m not super into Minecraft and could be entirely wrong. I’m approaching this from the perspective of a developer.
Yeah. I also don’t see how one could stay motivated if one knows that they’re like to be let go once the current project is about wrapped up.
C#. Since I’m a .NET developer it’s the stack I’m most familiar with.
Honestly I kind of like the idea of a front end with as little JS as possible.
Oh cool! I was trying to find if there was a Tesseract community, and instead I found the creator! I’m loving the client!
Is it posisble to contribute to it? I have a few thoughts as a UX person.
I’d not even heard of the game until now. Maybe they chose a bad launch window.
It’s also EA so I doubt people that did hear of it were particularly excited, especially given the milquetoast title of the game.
Conceptually this is really cool, but the hole punch is oddly misaligned on my Pixel 6, so I can’t imagine it looking good.
Like, new releases? I don’t really play many new games.
Had Baldur’s Gate III crash once, and that’s the newest title I’ve played.
Other than that I play Final Fantasy XIV, Guild Wars 2, The Sims and Elden Ring, never had any issues.
I went with an AM5 and an Intel Arc GPU. Quite satisfied, the GPU is doing great and didn’t cost an arm and a leg.
They’d turn your Jetta into a fridge, I’m sure.
My roomie is German so I share stuff from that community with him from time to time. It might be against the Geneva convention, but I’ve not faced repercussions yet.
Yeah! It doesn’t matter how stupid whatever point I have is, there’s usually some sort of conversation born from it, and I really enjoy that!
It makes it all the more sad, I feel.
