carl_dungeon@lemmy.worldto Gaming@lemmy.zip•US regulator won't follow Europe's lead and stick higher age ratings on games with loot boxes and daily quests, since it might confuse parentsEnglish34·20 days ago
carl_dungeon@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Religious and mystical literature is full of reports of encounters with aliens.English2·1 month agoIncidence of alien sighting and abduction stories have high correlation with the airing of movies featuring those themes. Notice that aliens only ever look like how a film depicted it first?
There are aliens, 100%. Statistically there must be, if only .000001% of planets could support life, that’d still be millions of planets in the universe that have it.
But…. none of them have ever visited earth. Space is too big of a place, it’s too empty, and life on earth is too young.

If your infant child dies, do you spend eternity with them changing their diapers?
You’re reunited with your high school sweetheart but they died in a car crash at 15 and you at 90. You spend eternity with a “kid” as an afterlife lover?
You had a dozen pets in your life- you have to have them all in the same house at the same time forever?

Sure you can build an engine if you want- the reason so much stuff is unity is because it handles the cross platform build/deploy for you and is already a well established engine/platform.
If you’re trying to make a game- use an engine. If you’re trying to make an engine, don’t get distracted with making a game. They’re very different things these days.
If you’re just doing this to learn and want to make a game from scratch, then do that- but the cross platform is a pain.

carl_dungeon@lemmy.worldto Climate@slrpnk.net•Climate Change Is Erased From a Manual for US Federal JudgesEnglish2·2 months agoThe one that can read already are aware of science and reality, and the ones that can’t are republicans, so probably a wash.

carl_dungeon@lemmy.worldto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Steam updates AI disclosure form to specify that it's focused on AI-generated content that is 'consumed by players,' not efficiency tools used behind the scenesEnglish1008·3 months agoYeah I mean, that sounds reasonable. There is a big difference between generating all your game assets with AI and using Claude to refactor methods and write docs.
carl_dungeon@lemmy.worldto stupidpol@sh.itjust.works•Workers in the US have an estimated $50bn-plus stolen from them every year, according to the Economic Policy Institute, surpassing all robberies, burglaries and motor vehicle thefts combined.English9·3 months agoNow just imagine how big the number is if you add shitty insurance, wage theft, forced part time hours, withholding of benefits, and continuous productivity multipliers while reducing wages.
carl_dungeon@lemmy.worldto Videos@lemmy.world•Why Otto Warmbier Didn't Survive North KoreaEnglish51·3 months agoThe “confession” they had him read was the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. It’s like bill gates admitting to soiling a hotel towel in exchange for a half eaten Big Mac and the CIA backed him up with the promise of getting him membership to publishers clearing house.
This reminds me of how the grapes of wrath was banned in Russia because it showed that even the poorest most desperate people in the west still had cars.
“What was his motivation? I’ll tell you, a life of luxury driving a 2001 civic, a secrete decoder ring, and a job worth $50,000!!!”
That’s fucking grim but I can relate sometimes! Nice strip.

carl_dungeon@lemmy.worldto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Password manager for a small companyEnglish41·3 months agoCan’t say on that one. For us it was a matter of features and price- it’s pretty reasonable and very well supported. I can understand your other considerations, they just weren’t #1 for our team.
