CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlto Games@sh.itjust.works•Two years after the Unity controversy, how are things going with Godot?English32·2 months agoRemember, they built Cassette Beasts in Godot. If anyone has a view on how to make a solid game in Godot, it’s them. Trying to push them to sell an engine they know better than either of us is weird. They walked the walk.
CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlto science@lemmy.world•Scientists reportedly hiding AI text prompts in academic papers to receive positive peer reviewsEnglish2·2 months agoWhat’s to respect in an AI review where they didn’t even review the output. It’s an LLM lazy review. Deserves to be gamed.
CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Looking for the Best KDE Distro – Fast, Stable, and Feature-Rich51·4 months agoSure, Manjaro is known to break on updates. OpenSuse TW is stable AF. Manjaro is a joke compared to most distros though.
CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlto Games@sh.itjust.works•Nintendo, Microsoft, and other developers will share accessibility labels about their gamesEnglish5·6 months agoWhat? Is this a positive step by large companies?
The cynic in me thinks they’ll push to legislate for this so Indies cannot compete and they make more money from MTX hell.
CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Scrabble players quit game after 400 offensive words banned from listEnglish11·6 months agoYou have missed the point completely. UK isn’t good but even given how bad you think it is, doesn’t tolerate the slurs mentioned (the whole point of the post). I speak about it because I live here and I’m shocked people even debating that these words are fine.
What miraculous country are you from that is so free from racism?
In a nutshell, I’ve said these words not cool here and your contribution is effectively “your racist country is so bad. Don’t talk”. Not the most helpful contribution ever. Who hurt you?
CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Scrabble players quit game after 400 offensive words banned from listEnglish11·6 months agoUK did some dark shit in the past. No debate.
Brexit is a whole different topic. Norway isn’t part of the EU, does that mean they are racist? You can hopefully see how weak that point was. Part of the debate was about sovereignty and economic decline. Whether valid, your implication that because 17m voted for that, they are all racist, is wholly wrong, shallow and child like black and white thinking. Some are, yes. I do know folks from right or left year voted for it who don’t have a racist bone in their body. You have to be able to handle nuanced debates though.
You’ve completely changed the topic from slurs and what isn’t acceptable to a whole piece on racism and I think every country can do an awful lot more to improve, UK included. The point was, slurs in there that some are finding acceptable in other countries isn’t here. You’d get banned from football games for them or fired from jobs.
If you just want to go down the “UK all bad!” You can carry on the whatabouttery/kitchen sinking on your own to make yourself feel better to protect your country and feed that nationalist indignation you got going on. If you want to go back to discussing slurs and acceptability, happy to welcome you back to the debate.
CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Scrabble players quit game after 400 offensive words banned from listEnglish11·6 months agoGuessing you don’t live in the UK. Accepted we have many issues we need to address and further progress to make, but certain slurs ans language are unacceptable and can rightly land you in hot water. Meanwhile in America and some other places, folk are like “lol, n word”.

CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Scrabble players quit game after 400 offensive words banned from listEnglish13·6 months agoHere in the uk , the P word is probably the most offensive word you could use against a person of Indian descent. Up there with the n word. removed (f word) is also probably the most offensive slur you can use in reference to gay people. It’s correct that they banned them.
Guessing you’re from America where being offensive is cool. Historically people used to justify the n word based on the origins rather than the highly offensive connotations.
UK ain’t woke, just has some acceptance that people from different backgrounds have some value rather than pandering to grumpy white folk who care about nothing but themselves and how inconvenient it is to possibly consider other words.

CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlto World News@lemmy.ml•Duterte flown to The Hague after arrest over Philippines drug war killings122·6 months agoSome Fillipino’s I’ve talked to have commented that drug problems in their area disappeared but used to be pretty horrible.
I’m not one to defend crimes against human’s, but one cannot discount the level of criminality and the impact it was already having on people’s lives. Whether the tactics were fair or decent is one thing, but another is, did it work? Did it solve a serious problem the country was grappling with? You only have to look at Mexico to realise that if you don’t deal with these things, the level of murder and suffering often skyrockets.

CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlMto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Over 3.1 million fake "stars" on GitHub projects used to boost rankings4·9 months agoThat is more down to poor marketing. Here on Lemmy or reddit there are big open source communities where you can extol the values of it.
CrypticCoffee@lemmy.mlMto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Over 3.1 million fake "stars" on GitHub projects used to boost rankings71·9 months agoI never went with a software project from random scrolling. It has no value to me if it doesn’t meet a need I have right now.
No contributor is going to be good that doesn’t use it.
