They could’ve started with anti cheat on the server side first. Characters were teleporting, money was appearing out of thin air, people were invulnerable, etc. Basic shit that doesn’t need any client side changes.

And yeah, being able to run your own servers would be preferable.

They locked me out of GTA online when they added battleeye and didn’t make it work on Linux. GTA O was shit anyway, everyone was hacking or griefing.

It was free if you already owned the game. Honestly not sure why people are complaining.

Yeah, that should’ve been the real red flag.

Yeah, I meant in the sense that Facebook and Google had also implemented it so you could just talk to anyone with any client.

Yep, remember when XMPP was a thing so you could chat with anyone no matter the platform?

Someone should really convince him to legalise all drugs to stick it to the cartels.

Back then he thought Bitcoin was bad and a scam. This time someone showed him how to make money by creating a scam coin and doing a pump and dump, so now he’s pro Bitcoin. So pro he’ll get rid of all regulation so pump and dump scams are completely legal.

It tracks with everything else. He also bought Tesla in order to become a ‘founder’.

Nowadays it takes like a year or 2 for devs to fix all the bugs anyway. People who buy on day one or pre-order are suckers.

Same thing happened a bunch of times in his previous admin. Democrats controlled Congress during COVID, so they passed a bill that included the stimulus checks, child tax credit and PPP. Trump made sure his name was on the checks (I mean, he could’ve not signed the bill, so in that sense he was right to take credit, but the point is, Democrats didn’t talk about it enough, and even worse, failed to renew the child tax credit when they were in power).

Trump has been running the same scams for decades. There’s probably tons of bag holders for his NFT scam that are loading up on TRUMP and MELANIA. He’s got a whole mailing list of gullible marks and he keeps butchering that pig until there’s nothing left.

Eventually it’ll dump. I can’t imagine this coin having much utility post-Trump presidency, whenever and however that ends.

It’s not like Vivek was going to even check Elon. It’s funny how he left it before he even started though.

Democrats getting played by Republicans, a classic.

Yep, a lot of people resisted at great personal expense, and then they see that the institutions that they ‘defended’ didn’t do their part when they regained power.

I’m sure people will still resist Trump, but they’re not going to count on the Democratic party to do their part any more.

Cops live for this shit. Chicago has its own off the books torture centre and everything, they’re already doing Gestapo stuff, they only needed permission to do it in the open.

Surprising to me that Lemmy is only at 4.3%, it definitely feels very active to me.

Yeah, everyone struggles with that, especially since AWS doesn’t really break down costs in a way that makes sense if you’re trying to work out which business unit or feature is costing you money (unless you set things up where every team has their own account or whatever, and even then).

I think Netflix could probably start selling their tool and make more money from that then streaming if they can get it to work, because I’m guessing AWS makes it hard on purpose.
