.dev Why is C hidden gold?
  • @modev I'm genuinely surprised to see so few C courses integrating standard C safety tools, such as linters. It's extremely easy to write unsafe C on the beginning, heck I passed years avoiding loops like the plague because I didn't manage to write them correctly without going on an off-by-one error. Something that a linter would have caught and fixed for me.

  • Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered forces PSN login for PC users if they decide to upgrade
  • Could we expect players from unsupported regions to have the original game retroactively removed from their libraries?

  • GNOME 47 Release Notes
  • Most important part to me: Adwaita is finally themeable again! No more black-or-white-or-the-highway

  • Transparent solar cell technology could allow smartphones and cars to self-charge
  • @deegeese @BrikoX If it's light enough to be added liberally to a smartphone without turning it into a brick, it probably is light enough to add it to a car roof with no major weight added. The question is, will it actually absorb enough sunlight to fill a car battery?

    Tired: posting a meme reaction

  • On this day 10 years ago, Microsoft acquired #Minecraft developer Mojang for US$2.5 billion.
  • @RandomVideos Because it still platforms the person, even if indirectly. You might remember the slightly wonky paintings made by a certain Austrian painter that plagiarized Chaplin's mustache, right?

  • On this day 10 years ago, Microsoft acquired #Minecraft developer Mojang for US$2.5 billion.
  • @RandomVideos They should have also removed all the code and artwork he contributed to the project as well (which is to say, the project should have been taken out of the market). Otherwise it's merely pushing the controversy under the rug.

  • On this day 10 years ago, Microsoft acquired #Minecraft developer Mojang for US$2.5 billion.
  • @kilgore_trout I'd usually say that, but then there's the entire issue of the villagers still being a vague stand-in for Jewish stereotypes (and then, to make things worse, said stereotypes then rubbing off to the Piglins in the Nether).

  • On this day 10 years ago, Microsoft acquired #Minecraft developer Mojang for US$2.5 billion.
  • @MinecraftWikiEN And then, Notch went mask-off, retroactively making the entire series morally questionable to support (no, the fact that he sold it away is irrelevant as he's still the original author, and no, Miku is not the author either)

  • Could you do me a favour and make this post look like a Reddit post?
  • Time to /r/insert plenty of /r/references to /r/unrelated /r/subreddits just in case

  • Libadwaita 1.6 – Just another blog
  • At long last, some theming support for Adwaita! I really missed being able to change colors, at the very least

  • Fortinet confirms data breach after hacker claims to steal 440GB of files
  • @BrikoX As somebody who just used his FortiToken to log into a FortiNet VPN: AAAAAAAAAAAH

  • Celebrities will never adopt the Fediverse until usernames are centralized.
  • Account verification is relatively simple, if you have your own website you just add a link back with a special formatting. Problem is, barely anyone applies for self-verification, and several platforms such as Lemmy don't support self-verification whatsoever. I can see why something like a distributed verification agency should be a thing, if we manage to make the implementation less technical for the end users of course.

  • Is there a webplatform for searching the items of local shops?
  • Many local governments have lists of local businesses to support, you could try finding your city's municipality's website and see if there's such a list.

  • !unifiedpush@lemmy.dbzer0.com, for push notifications on Android that don't rely on proprietary Google services
  • @Andromxda I have a Nextcloud instance where I set up the UnifiedPush distributor. Problem is, I've only found, like, three applications that work with UP - one of them constantly crashes, the other requires manually installing additional services on my server in order to even work, and the third one I barely even used in the end. I seriously hope to see more apps using UP now that it's finally landed on the main Maven repositories.

  • 2K Games has added Denuvo to NBA 2K25 at launch
  • @nanoUFO At least it still runs on the Steam Deck, right? ...Right?!

  • An important update on Concord ["Concord sales will cease immediately and we will begin to offer a full refund for all"]
  • @alessandro Ah never mind, total purchases were 25000 so the brute earnings were about 1 million USD

  • An important update on Concord ["Concord sales will cease immediately and we will begin to offer a full refund for all"]
  • @alessandro

    • Estimates give around 700 total active players on PC
    • Each copy costed $39.99 USD plus taxes
    • Let's consider about 700 players on the PS5 side of things to be fair
    • No microtransactions added to the game, that I know of
    • The total lifelong brute earnings of Concord (and thus the amount of money Sony will have to refunds) would therefore be around $60 000 USD, which in the world of AAA gaming is practically peanuts
  • What are your thoughts on passkey login?
  • @bilbobaggins The good part: my self-hosted VaultWarden supports passkeys, so I've added them to everything I can. The bad part: Android does not support third-party passkeys on Android 13 and lower, and guess whose phone is stuck with 13 being the latest official release for his smartphone - that means that the websites that completely substitute the password with a passkey, such as PlayStation and Microsoft, are currently off-limits for me because I'll end up locked outside.
