yeah expect this to flip. i am guessing this will go like “https” path. first we will saw green lock for https enabled sites, later we saw insecure for http sites.
asadalt··on When 'open core' projects reject contributions for competing with the EE
Other than months in silence, I don't see why this is wrong. Granted it sucks for the OP.

While working on a multiplayer games library, we are also making higher quality open-source web game demos, for those interested: https://docs.joinplayroom.com/templates
asadalt··on Free and Open Source Alternative to Airdrop
wouldn't it use bluetooth in that case? Or does it create adhoc wifi connections somehow?

similar: I have been using https://snapdrop.net/ for a few years now.
asadalt··on The web will be Vision Pro's killer app
no it wont. Not until apple adds support for webxr’s immersive-ar API. Currently a webxr app takes over everything in a fullscreen non-passthrough app. Which is pretty useless.

asadalt··on Feynman: I am burned out and I'll never accomplish anything (1985)
I have a similar approach to side projects. I have a day job (that is fun btw) and then I spend nights and weekends "playing" with code with no expectations. This has worked well for me and I LOVE this setup!

The alternative would be to raise VC and work full-time on a half-baked idea. :cringe:

asadalt··on Croquet: Live, network-transparent 3D gaming
Honestly, I am not sure what I am looking at, too much corp-speak.

Even though I am in similar industry(I think). If anyone is looking for a simple multiplayer SDK for games, I am making one: https://docs.joinplayroom.com

asadalt··on How can Santa keep his lists when the GDPR is around?
There is no "Dont consent", there is only "More Options" that takes a few hours to load and then you get a page with many toggles.
asadalt··on Meta censors pro-Palestinian views on a global scale, report claims
I am very pro-Palestine but I would also like Jews to be unharmed.

asadalt··on A lost X-Files song
I once was listening to a song in a cafe in Pakistan and couldn't find it. Me and friends did:

- Shazam a few times

- Ask the restaurant folks if they can look at some screen to get us the name, apparently it was on a screenless mp3 player

- I recorded a sample of it

- I tried all fingerprinting services apart from Shazam

- Posted on a few subreddits, found the base song, a daft punk song but not exact one

- I looked up all remixes all over internet, no luck

- Finally someone found the exact soundcloud link, apparently it was a remix with no mention of daft punk anywhere
