You’re right. I think a lot of people who didn’t grow up right at the cusp of the internet weren’t actually taught any internet safety.
Rule 1: never tell anyone your ASL, especially location.
Rule 2: No personally identifying details. If you could get doxxed using this information you shouldn’t be putting it online.
Rule 3: Runescape will never ask you for your password
When did people forget basic internet safety? ANYTHING you put on the internet could stay there forever.
Do you have a suggestion for a replacement? I’ve been looking for something to write in and didn’t want to buy MS office.
If your intention is to make games, I reccomend Gamemaker Studio 2. If the pricing model is something you’re not willing to work around (and trust me im still kinda salty about the change so i get it) Godot seems to be the move for 2d development.
GMS2 works on its own scripting language called Gamemaker Language, or GML. I’m told its similar to JS kinda. I used to redirect people to the r/gamemaker discord, but if you’re in the fediverse that might not be something you care to do. The community there rules though and is always happy to help people learn.
I think Godot is on c#? I haven’t used it yet, but it’s open source so if that’s important to you go for it.
Personally, I use Unity3d now, but I wouldn’t reccomend jumping right into that. C# can be kind of challenging (but highly rewarding once you know what you’re doing. serialized variables ftw)
Have an antigravity arrow.
Is that not what I was supposed to be calling them?
Hey! I’m not probably autistic! I’m definitely autistic, there’s a difference!
I came here to get mad but comic sans monospaced looks really good. I’m impressed. I might switch my IDE to this.
This is objectively a good thing, but I can’t help but worry that this’ll be the new target of bomb threats with the way the political climate down there is right now.
Stay safe, stay strong, never forget pride was a riot.
Yep, same thing happened to me. Tried to figure out what the Fragile modifier does in Trackmania but I couldn’t find the answer anywhere. /r/trackmania is shutdown (based) and i literally couldn’t find the answer anywhere. I still don’t even know what it does…
This is so deeply pathetic on the part of reddit tbh. CEO’s gotta power grab i guess.
I hate to say it, but I don’t think that day will ever come. Even in death, his die-hards will be slinging conspiracy theories about how he was assassinated or how he was jesus and he’ll ressurect soon to take on mega-hillary’s doomsday army.
Hopefully we can at least confine it to its own section of the internet though.
No matter how many developers you get, you’re never going to have a good product if the guy calling the shots won’t allow it. I’m confident that the developers working on Reddit probably know damn well that their product is trash and there’s nothing they can do about it because their job isn’t “make a good site” its “do what your boss tells you to do”
Yep. My personal “favorite” quote from that article is incredibly telling of how spez thinks of himself.
“Being around other people is a good thing. I also have this somewhat egotistical view that I’m a pretty good leader. I will probably be in charge, or at least not a slave, when push comes to shove.” - Steve “spez” Hoffman
far right group advocates for website that caters to far right groups
not even remotely a surprise to me, beyond I guess the fact that the taliban would have said anything at all about it
