That's why Servo and Ladybird need to be vastly built up

Most people won't watch AI films without real actors and actresses

The People Who Put Emulators on Your Steam Deck Now Want to Sell You a Linux Console by viov in c/technology@lemmy.world

I hope to see a couple more competitors get built up too

Valve, Playnix, and a few more would do so well. Maybe Ayn can make in future with a new different team a few bigger handheld consoles/consoles alongside their small Odin 2/3, and Thor offerings

Them together doing would vastly improve gaming industry and make Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo move to non-locked down PC Handhelds overtime

Am I wrong for blocking the Cloudflare domain because I assume they are gathering as much as google? by viov in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Federal Surveillance Tech Becomes Mandatory in New Cars by 2027 by viov in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] viov@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

True, alright I got to see how to help build that up. We all got this!!

Know any good online/in-person open source hardware, software, and Linux groups I can join that are established for other things? Need to learn and do as much as I can to make it happen

Imagine this is what encourages people to ramp up public transit construction nationwide. Along with the Strait of Hormuz blockade.

Looking forward to all the good that will come from people refusing this stuff

Tech companies like Google, Facebook and Microsoft are ignoring data controls mandated under California privacy law at ‘industrial scale’ by viov in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] viov@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

We should be getting every Californian to work together to make that happen.

Also serious queation. What do you think they can do to make that happen?

This is a huge thing I am hoping Europe does. To vastly ramp up humungous fines

Open source hardware needs to be built up more. To do that we need more new people active in that to get different things done. Including vehicles

Make of that what you will, just brought this as peace offering to the Open Source/Linux community to hear me out and because I thought it was interesting /s :p

Edit: This can double as a suggestions post for other people new to contributing to Open Source/GNU Linux/Game Deving

My Goals:

Want to socialize and get to know other Open Source/Game Dev/Software Engineer/DevOps/Linux people. Even if I know people just online. I'm a newbie to it all. Are there online groups for any of that in say Discord servers, forums, or elsewhere?
Want to help work on existing Open Source Games. These are some I have in mind to help where I can:

Unciv: To make Elder Scrolls, Mass Effect, and Fallout mods for this game.
SuperTux (Some mods of new worlds, enemies, storylines, and adding mascots from Open Source community that have not been added yet)
OpenMW (To build it out with the team. Same for new land mods to add lands outside of Tamriel: Akavir, Thras, Yokuda, etc)
OpenFNV/OpenOblivion/OpenFO3 (A person is working on them since OpenMW is able to pull data from those games so very possible just lots of work to be done)
GTA Project Eagle (To help Dev it, and then help to bring it to phones in a team once it is in a completed state)
Beyond All Reason (Love RTS games and well I don't know how yet but would love to make something for it)
Xonotic (Maps and shooting sounds: pew pew pew)

To make some original IP smaller mobile games that are actually fun to play on side to hopefully fund my ability to spend more time game deving overtime. To learn more with practice building smaller games from start to finish solo, and maybe with others potentially. Android/Linux Mobile/Linux PC as the focuses for those smaller games, and the bigger games in future
To build out some open source teams, that can continue even when I leave the teams, to build new open source small-sized games, and later medium/large-sized game projects. Have lots in mind:

Tux Party Revamp game, TuxWorld (3D-Platformer with Multiplayer), Old School Final Fantasy-esque, Tux Call of Duty Zombies-like, etc

To build out Open Source/Linux communities however I can:

Growing the UI/UX, Art, Animation, GIF, Social Media portions of the community for building up outreach of Open Source/Linux around the world. Those are some avenues to expand reach to get more funding, users, and new devs.

Helping to build up new/existing platforms to help encourage collaboration on projects, and highlight needed funding so they can be improved upon. To help projects that need more of either funding, volunteers, or both to get them.

So with that in mind what do you all recommend I do to start off? Please and thanks for any suggestions! Want to start small and properly get myself going on here.
