Very true in more ways than one.
Hi I’m DraconicNEO, I have an interest in Linux and retro computing and I also play on the SDF minecraft server. I learned about SDF back in August 2023 when I found out about this Lemmy instance and I joined soon after.
Very true in more ways than one.
Let’s hope they don’t overdose again like last time.
They learn how to program in a more efficient way that makes better use of limited memory and CPU cycles. Which frankly is something modern programmers and game designers could very much benefit from considering how bloated and unoptimized much of modern software is, probably because they didn’t need to think about whether computers can actually run it.
These are very cool comics.
Hopefully they didn’t overdose on it.
I wonder what that octopus thinks of that whole situation, he certainly seems confused by their behavior.
Funnily enough I have to hide terminal windows when updating while I’m around any of my less tech savy friends who think it’s scary or creepy. I really dislike them portraying this as “hacking”.
I wouldn’t use a Fairphone ever since I do find the headphone jack necessary but also I find their reasoning very slimy and manipulative. They claimed they removed it to reduce waste (I don’t see how taking people’s options away does that at all, seems like BS) but it happened right before they started selling Bluetooth airbuds, which ironically aren’t repairable since the battery can’t be replaced nondestructively.
So in essence they’re claiming environmental sustainability but really it’s likely they’re just saying that so they can line their pockets and sell more of their Bluetooth earbuds, which I remind you can’t really be repaired so they’re garbage once the batteries in them wear out.
Xenia is so awesome.
