Can somebody explain why game makers don't start their own companies together?

It seems like every other week a game studio is massively laying off employees; sometimes after years of development. What I’m reading is that it’s a quick way to lower expenses and pad the investors’ pockets, flooding the market with developers and reducing their value, to then hire them back a few months later at lower...

Dymonika,

the only viable option, assuming you’re not already independently wealthy, is that you have to work another job to work on the game in the meantime, which means it will take even longer to come out.

Or be ConcernedApe.

Dymonika,

And apparently the reviews seem to suggest that this may be one of the best LEGO games of its time, entirely.

Dymonika,

Losing a bad friendship already sounds like a net positive to me!

Dymonika,

Scary! Glad you’re safe!

Dymonika,

Consider MacroDroid, which is free if you use no more than 5 macros.

Dymonika,

I just now saw that the order is actually coming from GladOS, haha.

How do you handle your passwords?

I rely on Bitwarden (slooowly migrating from… a spreadsheet…) and am thinking of keeping a master backup to be SyncThing-synchronized across all my devices, but I’m not sure of how to secure the SyncThing-synchronized files’ local access if any one of my Windows or Android units got stolen and somehow cracked into or...

Dymonika,

I guess it’s in cases when I may not be able to use Bitwarden, but… I suppose it can be used everywhere! Clearly, I’m new to this thing, so that’s good to know!

Dymonika,

What if the HDD catches on fire or the room gets flooded while you’re not home?

Dymonika,

I do have some issues with their organization accounts though.

Like what?

Dymonika,

they have a phenomenal track record in terms of security

I read that they have bowed to email subpoenas in the past.

Dymonika,

PS Bitwarden (company) stores only the encrypted version on their servers so that’s not an issue either

Whew, thanks!! They’re so Signal-level ingenious.

Dymonika,

I’m mortified to say I could certainly do more in this regard. Do you recommend a preferred method?

Dymonika,

But the official SyncThing was more recently updated, last I checked. Should that be of concern?

Dymonika,

Oh, good to know, thanks!

Dymonika,

For PC, audacity has all these features, but its pretty clunky to use.

You could eliminate that clunkiness by building an AutoHotkey script to blaze through the menu to select and slow down the recording in one press.

Dymonika,

was purely for security reasons and not for disabling ad blockers.

I had not heard of Manifest v3 and actually can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not. I guess you are.

Anyone ever swap careers from Corporate to Non-Profit or some other Cause: If so, how?

I worked in the food industry for a while before returning back to school to get a degree in tech thinking it would be my path to a better life. While at first I thought where my career was taking me provided exactly that, I’m absolutely miserable working a corporate job in tech. I’ve seen several layoffs, AI is taking over,...

Dymonika,

Passwords will always need to be reset!

Dymonika,

they all contribute

The point is:

Not evenly.

Dymonika,

I meant that the uneven distribution may be unfair, not that fairness = evenness. But yeah, I guess there’d be no way to tell what the optimal redistribution should be…

Dymonika,

Interesting, and terrible of these impostors to do. Done! Now, where’s the Internet police to take this ten steps further?

Dymonika,

Wow, that is a lot of lost bookmarks. That sucks!

What does this mean ?

I meant if they were mostly in one folder, if the list is so long that when you open the folder, the bookmarks continue past the bottom of the screen so you’d have to scroll to reach the bottom. One of ny folders is like that 😅👀

Dymonika,

True… forgot! I wanna move to Linux but I’m having trouble with Python (to port over my Windows-only AutoHotkey scripts)…

Dymonika,

I tried it and I just… couldn’t get into it… It’s sure incredibly stylish, though!
