Paradox Interactive has completely cancelled "Life By You"
  • While PDX-published games may suffer from the decouplement of features between DLCs, at the very least PDS-developed games have a built-up expertise when it comes to managing this.

    As for MMO model, it's a hard sell because purchased things get made "free" for new comers. It's one of the crux that EU4 faced when they rolled many DLC features into the base game.

  • A cool guide for your laundry
  • My washing machine has a wheel to select multiple, heat-specific programs but also has a "cold" switch for other programs. I seldom use the heat specific ones, unless I'm particularly interested in a hot wash.

    So I guess that the mileage may vary by country (I'm in Spain) and how old a washing machine is (mine is quite old).

  • Thanks Alia
  • I first thought it was a paradise parasite of some kind, but I ended up understanding it's a perfectible sensible conversation between a conscious pre-born and their mother, where the former jokes about using their mother as a suit that repurposes every drop of moisture into their body.

  • On the wings of the Crownfall update, DOTA2 has hit its highest concurrent player peak since 2022: over 900K.
  • I played Dota games circa 2010, and I was decent. My most preferred game was Heroes of the Storm because it felt more streamlined and team based than Dota, and this has caused me to lose so many skills like lane control (kills/denials) and item management.

    Is there any way of getting those skills back? Any resources where it may explain each role (carry, ganker, etc) with a few characters in detail? Any game I've played in turbo or otherwise has resulted in showing my incompetence 😂

  • A US scientist has brewed up a storm by offering Britain advice on making tea
  • I have an electric kettle of ~1.6L capacity. I fill it with the minimum 0.5L and it boils in less than a minute.

    If you're using a stove kettle, I understand why Microwaves can be faster, but outright saying so is a bit of an exaggeration.

  • WhatsApp continues working on Instagram integration behind closed doors
  • It seems that Meta is low-key following the "everything app" goal that Elon Musk wanted for Twitter/X, tying products like WhatsApp, Instagram, Threads while at the same time distancing themselves from the Facebook brand.

    For example, WhatsApp is a chat app that has been enhanced to have Business Accounts, which allows for Bots, Stores and Payments. Further integration with Instagram could potentially use these features to tie together content+business. Threads is an enhancement over Instagram to add textual content.

  • Google reverses latest ban on web browser after another bogus DMCA takedown
  • Man, this takes me back to Microsoft enforcing IE, then losing a trial and having a mandated-for web browser catalog when first launching IE.

    Google deserves this, if not potentially more, as they've become so huge.

  • #! a question about shebang.
  • As far as I recall and for Linux, the shebang is interpreted by the kernel to execute the text file as the input of a given program. Are you talking about adding a shebang to a C source file? If so, this would not work, because the hash could be interpreted as a preprocessor instruction.

    Take into consideration that, in bash, you can use ${0} to get the filename of the current script. If you want the count of lines in your script wc -l ${0} ought do the trick.

    If you're using C, you could rely on the FILE define for your imolementation but the rest implies reading the source code and then acting on it.
