When Bloomberg reported that Spotify would be upping the cost of its premium subscription from $9.99 to $10.99, and including 15 hours of audiobooks per month in the U.S., the change sounded like a win for songwriters and publishers. Higher subscription prices typically equate to a bump in U.S. mechanical royalties — but not...

The company made a net loss of 629bn roubles (£5.5bn) in 2023 amid dwindling gas trade with Europe, once Gazprom’s main sales market, as a result of sanctions and the throttling of pipelines to the continent.

I think it’s kind of like how politicians “pause” their political campaigns when they concede. Technically they could come back to it, but almost certainly won’t.
Just finished playing Axiom Verge. Since I picked up a SteamDeck, I’m trying to play through my library. I’m trying to figure out which game in my library to tackle next between Blasphemous, Forager, or Spiritfarer.
What have you all been playing! Still on my usual binding of Isaac and helldivers grind, but I’m also getting back into elden ring to get ready for the dlc coming later this year! 🤩

They really want a clear separation of church and state.
Normally, when these kinds of laws or rules are created, it is with the intention to be solely utilized by the Christian faith.
While the same approach could be done with Judiasm or Islam, invoking Satanism is a much clearer signal for Christians. “Why is the school promoting Satan?” becomes a leading question to start the discussion that maybe government shouldn’t advocate or promote any religion.
It’s tolerated because he’s literally the best player in his position in the entire world (and one of the best in the history of the entire sport). What are the going to do? Get rid of him?
If you’re not one of the best, the behavior is not tolerated as much.
Well voting in the general election is binary. There are no other choices than Republican or Democrat. You have to choose between those two or it’s effectively the same as not voting.
So it’s not just this time. It’s every time because of how the electoral system in America works.
I thought Jared Kushner solved this during Trump’s presidency. Are you saying that they lied?
Jokes aside I agree. Both sides claim they want a 2 state solution, but that’s only because it’s politically convenient to say. Perhaps the Palastinians would settle for it now, since Israel has more power, but Israel really has no incentive not to just keep encroaching even more into Palestine until it’s all Israel.
I guess that since Epic owns Unreal Engine that bad news for Epic means good news for Godot?
I don’t think that Epic is going to want to divest from Unreal considering how much money it makes.
I also don’t think that it’s a zero-sum game. As a developer I want Unreal (and Unity) to be great so it creates more competition. Unreal has led the way in a lot of cool gaming tech that Godot is picking up.
My main issue with using the general chatbot is that it’s an incredibly inefficient way to convey information. For writing tasks I essentially need to type most of the answer first to get reasonable outputs when considering my actual constraints.
More specialized tooling will have these constraints built-in, which will increase productivity.
Even if we have the perfect general chatbot, it’s still a lot of work to concisely describe your requirements to it.
