No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do I get started with game development? (Godot specifically)
13·2 years agoSorry (ok maybe not) but Godot uses an internal script that resembles Python, with optional .net bindings.
The .net bindings are c# native.
You could use f#, but if you’re still learning the ropes that’s setting yourself up to fail, since it’ll limit the use of documentation and add a high hurdle to clear

World News@lemmy.world•Gaza authorities say 700 Palestinians killed in overnight strikes as Israel intensifies bombing campaignEnglish
8·3 years agoWhy the down vote? Average age in gaza is 19 (yes mean is not median but still). This means that you have a good chance that a large proportion of those killed were kids (and almost all weren’t of voting age last time gaza had an election).

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is one show you wish wouldn't have gotten cancelled when it did?English
113·3 years agoHonestly? With the benefit of hindsight, I’m actually pleased it wasn’t given the chance to become a Dollhouse.
The movie gave closure, and we left the characters in a good place.
Dollhouse gave us 5 seasons of content in one, and ruined itself in season 2, and many other shows have just run until everyone was sick of them, before getting an anticlimactic ending anyway.

Technology@lemmy.world•Influencers are disgusted with Amazon's paltry $25-per-video endorsement offer | It looks like full-time Amazon UCG creators are getting a 90-percent cut in payEnglish
91·3 years agoTechnically it’s their client that’s putting the thumb screws to them.
If that’s the case the logical solution is to put your commercial hat on and find another client. Amazon aren’t the only ones paying.
If Amazon was your only client that’ll be tough, but speaking from experience if you don’t diversify your client base, you’re living on borrowed time anyway.
This doesn’t mean Amazon are not being abusive, but the solution isn’t to moan on the internet.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•What are you using for webcam and graphics card?English
2·3 years agoNvidia 1060 for graphics, got it back in 2017 and haven’t seen the need to upgrade.
If I do change it, I’d be tempted to go AMD, but blender compatibility does have me worried.

Technology@lemmy.world•Amazon faces potential break-up as FTC finalizes antitrust lawsuit | The FTC is getting ready for the big oneEnglish
10·3 years agoYes and no.
The simple fact that you’re not using IE6 on MSN with Bing search to access a Windows server is more or less proof that the constraints placed on Microsoft at that time did actually have an impact (even if I felt robbed that the company wasn’t split up at the time).
Today the one thing Microsoft is still dominante in is Office software (and even then Google docs is snapping at their heals).
OS? Android is more popular than windows Server OS? Linux rules the roost Browser? Chrome
The company that really needs scrutiny ATM is Google.

Memes@lemmy.ml•I can’t think of a a good title so why not just write a long sentence insteadEnglish

Memes@lemmy.ml•Shout out to the oil, meat, and shipping industries
12·3 years agoThe point is that they’ve established a relationship between o16 levels and temperature, so if you’ve got twice the o16 then say it was 25% warmer (made up ratio, I haven’t read the study).
This doesn’t tell us what the air temperature was, but it does tell us what it wasn’t (IE upper and lower bounds).
When you have several of these proxies it helps narrow down the temperature range (think how your god works better when you have more satellites).
Now if you know that the last seven days are the hottest on record and you know from your proxies that you are outside of temperatures of the past 100k years then it’s a pretty safe bet to state that we’re at the hottest time in the past 100k years.
There is no melodrama or lying in this fact, unfortunately.

Technology@lemmy.world•Reddit Gives Final Warning to Subreddits Using NSFW Protest TacticEnglish
2·3 years agoPersonally, I’ve just switched to using https://www.understandingwar.org/ for my daily update and https://warontherocks.com/ for the deep dives.
The amount of useful information is similar, and the signal to noise ratio is far better.

Looking at your examples, and I have to object at putting scratch in there.
My kids use it in clubs, and it’s great for getting algorithmic basics down before the keyboard proficiency is there for real coding.
