Ah right on thanks for the info, I had no idea. My company is less than 10 people with single digit million revenue so it appears we're not violating anything. I knew they had a paid service, but none of that seems unique to MacOS.
What's this about Docker not being free on MacOS? I have it installed and use it for dev work and it didn't cost anything.
I fucking love dwarves, I'm all for a dwarf tag.
Normally I wouldn't try to be an armchair game developer, but I'm leaning towards agreeing with this. the article does say:
Epic’s incredibly popular engine reportedly could not support the team's 100-player ambitions
which is a surprise to me, considering how robust it generally is. It's superficial, but I can point to Fortnite as a game using Unreal and supporting a hundred players in one lobby along with being able to spawn custom buildings on the fly.
The closest analogue I can think of is FrostGiant using Unreal for presentation, sound, and inputs, but their custom Snowplay engine for everything else in Stormgate. This makes sense to me given they're trying some tricky and somewhat novel things (at least) on the networking side that Unreal doesn't support.
All that to say: I'm very curious about the details on how Unreal was unable to achieve what they wanted at the number of players they were targeting. I'm also curious why reducing scope (either in number of players or feature set) wasn't a viable option, especially after so long in development. I don't mean this as a "they're obviously dumb and wrong", I am genuinely curious what was planned and not working. I hope we get more details because cancelled games (and the development process as a whole) is fascinating to me.
I could feel all my interest evaporate.
Personally I only dislike the horror that's purely for jump scares/shock/gore. I find it cheap and not engaging.
Big fan of Sumatra.
Wow I'm late to respond to you. To my knowledge no, but there have been more announcements recently about plans being put into motion.
Related, Bruce Power is getting new reactors but afaik they're not SMRs.
"some of them were holding Trump flags" says all you need to know.
I used to be on Distributel proper, not as bad customer support as Rogers but it was pretty bad. Currently with Coextro (I know nothing of their corporate structure though) and their customer support has been as good as Teksavvy's in my experience.
