AmalgatedAmoeba··on CD Projekt is remaking the first Witcher game in Unreal Engine 5
I can only speak for Czechia and here the Witcher II definitely made a splash.

Yea, the lack of expandability and locked down OS are totally anti consumer. Unfortunately, nowadays, that’s the norm and not a “scam.”

It’s got 6.41 GB of onboard storage. I’ve been using mine heavily for note taking, reading articles, and some pdf markup and still use less than 2 GB.

I guess if you needed to work with a large number of media rich pdf, it could become a problem. But there are solutions. Either officially supported - dropbox et al. integration, or you can just ssh into the device and set up a syncing scheme of your liking.

So I really cannot image what are you talking about.

AmalgatedAmoeba··on What Figma plans to do inside Adobe
A good interviewer would then ask follow up questions to either get a straight answer or highlight the absence thereof. Unfortunately, much of the mainstream tech "journalism" is just repackaged press releases written by people hoping to get hired by the very same companies that they "report" on. Thence the softball questions and toothless interviews all in an effort to not upset any potential future employers.
AmalgatedAmoeba··on Show HN: Ezno, a type checker for JavaScript and optimiser for React
Looks very promising! My understanding is that Svelte has a similar approach. Would be amazing to have an alternative using just JSX.

No, it’s really not (unless you mean the literal, holistic user experience and not what the term usually refers to). GIMP is lacking the tools and integrations that make Photoshop seem like magic, while not being more performant or offering much of a benefit beyond being OSS. The lackluster UI is just the cherry on top.
