@ItsSlumpii that number is boosted higher because of a promo period for devs and is from march 2023 to now
while I get the argument, how else are you going to encourage devs to make games for your platform if your competitors like Roblox just pay more (they paid 2.6b in the same period)
So you're telling me UEFN map creators and influencers were handed out $720,000,000...some people legitimately became millionaires from creating a map in Fortnite, yet the devs themselves who created and maintained both FN and RL...get laid off??
None of that makes sense. I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure thats not how you run a business.
@DestinysJesus its never gonna be same idk why people keep hoping for game get better,chapter 2 was best time for competitive game was simple and pure skill,now its just shit after shit
> Increase V-Buck Prices
> Pay out $722 million to Red VS Blue spam creative maps
> Add in game purchases to maps with 100% rev share
> New skin collab every 2 days
> 0 Promotion for new season with barely any map changes
> Layoff 1000 employees because you can't run a business
🚨🇮🇹 Italy just handed Giorgia Meloni her first real political defeat
Voters said NO to her judicial reform, a key proposal that would’ve reshaped how judges and prosecutors operate.
This matters because it was a direct test of her power.
Imagine a president pushes a major court reform, and the country votes it down nationwide.
Meloni is still in charge, but this hits her momentum hard and shows real limits to her support.
And in European politics, once you start looking weaker… things can shift very quickly.

@Omnicris@SlimFlexington@satyanadella I remember when UML-based no-code tools were the latest hype. No-code reappeared again 20 years later: same shit. It's really funny seeing people with no compsci experience trying to use LLMs to build "products" with a lifespan of 2 days.

Recent media activity about the Abilene site are false and incorrect. First, Crusoe and Oracle are operating in lockstep to deliver one of the world's largest AI Data centers in Abilene at record-breaking pace. Two buildings are completely operational and the rest of the campus is on track. Second, Oracle has completed leasing for the additional 4.5GW to deliver on our commitments to OpenAI.
We continuously evaluate sites around the world to meet the growing demand for OCI by working with great partners and customers all the time.

I read about OpenClaw.
I still don't understand the purpose. Can someone seriously explain to me the purpose of this AI assistant? I reviewed the different "skills" it offers and it makes literally zero sense.
This can be used to automate ... messages to other people? Like on Slack, or Discord, or Telegram? Check the weather? Do stuff with Stripe? I don't understand the purpose.
Why would I need something to automatically deal with instant messaging clients? Am I missing something? Even if you don't NEED it, why would you WANT it?
I DON'T UNDERSTAND
The U.S. Department of Defense announced this morning that forces under the United States Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM) carried out a right-of-visit, maritime interdiction and boarding on the Panamanian-flagged crude oil tanker M/T AQUILA II in the Indian Ocean overnight without incident, after tracking the vessel - which was operating in defiance of President Trump’s established quarantine of sanctioned vessels linked to Venezuela - from the Caribbean Sea.
@matteorenzi Bisogna parlare di più della possibilità che agenti ICE entrino nel nostro territorio nazionale. Non non dovrebbe essere nemmeno una cosa di cui si discute, e invece. Ma ci rendiamo conto che questi ammazzano gente per strada?
E dopo 36 ore anche Giorgia Meloni ha capito che doveva criticare le parole di Trump sui nostri caduti in Afghanistan e nel resto del mondo. Ultima a parlare ma meglio tardi che mai. Viva le donne e gli uomini che difendono l’Italia con il coraggio che la Premier purtroppo non ha
Omg everyone stop worrying. You don't need a VPN to torrent
I replied to my ISP saying I'm not downloading illegally. I told them I'm a very wealthy tech CEO and I'm acquiring AI training data
They apologized and gave me 1 year of free Internet
Donald Trump is weakness masquerading as strength.
He has sold out American businesses — to China and to Russia.
It is code red in the United State of America.
Il discorso di Trump. Devo spegnere. Mi succede esattamente come quando guardo i reality, credo ci sia una parola tedesca per “provare vergogna per qualcuno che stai guardando e che non si rende conto della figura che sta facendo”
@Grady_Booch What I have noticed tho is that while the cognitive load is reduced because of the nice explanations and all that, I retain *way* less than what I usually do without it. I periodically need to go back to the chat log instead of simply reading the code.
@ocornut@marlene_zw@github@jaredpalmer jfc the folding is such bs... I wish I had the time to complain properly, but with the gazillion dependencies and tools we use daily it's already a minefield of issues.
@marlene_zw@github@jaredpalmer Today I basically cannot see my Issues. But also within a given Issue the aggressive folding with arbitrarily hidden posts (instead of standard pagination) makes any form of in-browser search unreliable and practically unusable.
Was eager to start my week before I realized that @github now refuses to let me see all issues on my own repository??!!
It's unacceptable and very stressful. My issues are carefully labelled, but not all interactions are based on label/keyword searches. Let me see my Issues.
@eastdakota@Cloudflare You also must understand that whoever is in charge of decision-making DOES NOT understand how the technical aspect work. They impose decisions based on poor understanding of the subject.
@eastdakota@Cloudflare That said, I recommend you stop any kind of discount or special program for the Italian government or Italian municipalities. Let them feel the pain, and they'll roll back everything. They are too full of themselves to realize you can just stop the service.
Yesterday a quasi-judicial body in Italy fined @Cloudflare $17 million for failing to go along with their scheme to censor the Internet. The scheme, which even the EU has called concerning, required us within a mere 30 minutes of notification to fully censor from the Internet any sites a shadowy cabal of European media elites deemed against their interests. No judicial oversight. No due process. No appeal. No transparency. It required us to not just remove customers, but also censor our 1.1.1.1 DNS resolver meaning it risked blacking out any site on the Internet. And it required us not just to censor the content in Italy but globally. In other words, Italy insists a shadowy, European media cabal should be able to dictate what is and is not allowed online.
That, of course, is DISGUSTING and even before yesterday’s fine we had multiple legal challenges pending against the underlying scheme. We, of course, will now fight the unjust fine. Not just because it’s wrong for us but because it is wrong for democratic values.
In addition, we are considering the following actions: 1) discontinuing the millions of dollars in pro bono cyber security services we are providing the upcoming Milano-Cortina Olympics; 2) discontinuing Cloudflare’s Free cyber security services for any Italy-based users; 3) removing all servers from Italian cities; and 4) terminating all plans to build an Italian Cloudflare office or make any investments in the country.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. While there are things I would handle differently than the current U.S. administration, I appreciate @JDVance taking a leadership role in recognizing this type of regulation is a fundamental unfair trade issue that also threatens democratic values. And in this case @ElonMusk is right: #FreeSpeech is critical and under attack from an out-of-touch cabal of very disturbed European policy makers.
I will be in DC first thing next week to discuss this with U.S. administration officials and I’ll be meeting with the IOC in Lausanne shortly after to outline the risk to the Olympic Games if @Cloudflare withdraws our cyber security protection.
In the meantime, we remain happy to discuss this with Italian government officials who, so far, have been unwilling to engage beyond issuing fines. We believe Italy, like all countries, has a right to regulate the content on networks inside its borders. But they must do so following the Rule of Law and principles of Due Process. And Italy certainly has no right to regulate what is and is not allowed on the Internet in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, China, Brazil, India or anywhere outside its borders.
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT FIGHT AND WE WILL WIN!!!
