Mixue. They’re suddenly just popping up everywhere, and the price of their ice cream/drinks is dirt cheap to a point where it doesn’t even make any sense. I understand that the cost of those ingredients are dirt cheap anyway, but there’s no way their margins cover operations, rent, labor.

dragonlobster@programming.devto Games@lemmy.world•Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline versionEnglish73·25 days agoFuck Ubisoft, I don’t know why everyone on Reddit loves em
dragonlobster@programming.devto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•No Connection, No Flush8·1 month agoI have one too but it has an emergency physical “master key”. Also there’s a port to provide power to it through a battery bank, in case you really run out of juice though it’s potentially another point of failure. No internet connection
dragonlobster@programming.devto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•The difference between programmers and testers39·1 month agoI’m working on a gameboy emulator and the amount of edge cases you have to consider feels just like this lol.
dragonlobster@programming.devto Reddit@lemmy.world•Nobody is really talking about Reddit dropping value since they banned Luigi posts and sided with Musk to remove communities1·1 month agoI also thought the same but Reddit dropped a whopping 50% from Feb. That is abnormal compared the the decline in other stocks. But as for the reason it could be anything really, if you could know for sure you can make a lot of money.
Your vote only matters in swing states. The whole electoral college thing is fucked.
dragonlobster@programming.devto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The alarm clock industry was collateral damage in the smartphone wars.11·2 months agoPhones are powerful enough to emulate those devices via software

The theory is that on-prem includes a lot of ancillary costs like a team of staff for maintenance (or cost for outsourcing it), hardware maintenance/upgrades, cybersecurity, dealing with failures, backup, load balancing, multi-region/multizone etc.
I don’t think cloud solves all these issues necessarily and I am convinced if you do the calculations cloud ends up being more expensive depending on the scale. I think you really pay the premium for convenience, speed (of getting things going) and user experience (the software)
dragonlobster@programming.devto Games@lemmy.world•Nintendo has sent a DMCA notice to Ryujinx forksEnglish9·2 months agoFrom my understanding the repos wouldn’t include the keys (or if they did then they definitely shouldn’t). But yeah I understand the long legal battle thing.
dragonlobster@programming.devto Games@lemmy.world•Nintendo has sent a DMCA notice to Ryujinx forksEnglish52·2 months agoWhat gives them the right to take down emulators? It’s just code someone wrote that happens to be able to interpret bytes from a switch cartridge?
Why wouldn’t they take down a company like analogue for example for making a hardware level gameboy emulator?

dragonlobster@programming.devto Gaming@lemmy.world•Small, incremental improvements don't make shockwaves like the old massive tech leaps used to.English29·2 months agoI don’t mind the graphics that much, what really pisses me off is the lack of optimization and heavy reliance on frame gen.
dragonlobster@programming.devto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•I'm not saying emulator, but...6·2 months agoSoftware which displays pixels and outputs sound when given data from a game cart, coincidentally.
Teams is terrible, but it feels like there’s no good alternative. I liked Slack but its expensive. It also blows my mind that there’s no markdown syntax highlighting for code in both, such a basic feature even discord has.
dragonlobster@programming.devto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•The government doesn't use SQL64·3 months agoIt’s hard to figure out what he’s talking about , when he says the “whole social security database”. Like in which tables are they duplicated? Does it mean the entire row is duplicated or just the SSN, it might make sense to be duplicated depending on the schema. Is it an append only db, so there might be updated columns on the same ssn and you need to filter by the latest update timestamp? Who knows.
But also, saying that there’s a “social security database” and then following that up by the govt “doesn’t use SQL” so… the db is actually just a spreadsheet? A .txt file? The SSNs are just written down in someone’s notebook? Lol
I’m not defending the design choice perse, just giving you the things needed to be considered that goes into making such designs.
dragonlobster@programming.devto Technology@lemmy.world•DeepSeek iOS app sends data unencrypted to ByteDance-controlled serversEnglish13·3 months agoWell many of China’s websites don’t even use HTTPS. Look at china.org.cn, or en.people.cn for example
Well as with everything, there is the surface level and the deep rabbit hole. We have only ventured a bit in the rabbit hole. I think enjoyment of chess at any level is possible, but it is definitely not for everyone.
