Just started it this morning and having fun so far, now I just need someone to make a game in the spirit of Sly Cooper!

Unfortunately multiple sources seem to agree Dong Nguyen has no involvement, which is consistent with the way he originally shut down Flappy Bird due to people spending too much time on it :(
“The Flappy Bird Foundation said it has acquired the official Flappy Bird trademark from Gametech Holdings LLC, a U.S. company that appears to have wrestled the trademark from Nguyen, as well as the rights for the original game and character from Piou Piou vs. Cactus, the mobile game that supposedly originally inspired the Flappy Bird character.”
And the trademarks were sleazily grabbed from the original creator :/
It’s almost baffling to think we still have mysteries like this so long after the game’s (apparently aborted) release, but it’s really cool to read along with the investigation!
“Obligatory fuck the HDMI forum and the HDMI spec”
Amen to that
It probably would’ve been useful to include the list of actual games:
“The three games included are: The Wing of Madoola, Firework Thrower Kantaro’s 53 Stations of the Tokaido and Ripple Island.”
Even assuming they did make development decisions to benefit advertising partners, how on earth would choosing not to optimize performance actually benefit them?
Ah understood!
I think this news only affects Humble Games but not Humble Bundle, confusingly they are separate but semi-related businesses these days.
And Mandriva itself was an attempted resurrection of the old Mandrake distribution (which was sorta the Ubuntu of its day). Really hoping OpenMandriva manages to make a go of it considering the ringer those folks have been through.
…what?
A busted kernel module/driver/plug-in/whatever that triggers a bootloop is going to require intervention on any platform no matter whether the code happens to be published somewhere out on the internet or not. On top of that, Windows allows you to control/remove 3rd party kernel drivers just like on Linux, which is exactly what many of us have been stuck doing on endless devices for the last three days.
I fully advocate for open-source software and use it where I can, but I also think we should do that by talking about its actual advantages instead of just making up nonsense that will make experienced sysadmins spit out their coffee.
Google’s dream of hijacking an open standard (on Android at least) is achieved :/
It sounds like you’re referring to the National Socialist German Workers’ Party of WWII infamy. People are probably going to assume something else, FYI.
Unless your server was running Crowdstrike and also hosted in a time machine, yes it is.
Huh? Crowdstrike is an antivirus product, you’re only affected if you bought and installed it on your Windows devices. Crowdstrike also had issues with their Linux version a few weeks ago, but that one was thankfully less severe.
Only if they manage Crowdstrike systems, thankfully.
The official guidance has to come from Crowdstrike since it’s their problem, but this tip has helped on about 50% of our affected machines so far.
I believe they actually adopted it for their Tizen OS, unless I completely invented that memory.
No, the article plainly states what’s going on.
I immediately thought it was that scene when I saw the screenshot, such a bittersweet moment.
