To say it’s been a bad week for Unity is the understatement of 2023. First they announced a terrible new Pricing scheme, then their customers revolted, as the week goes on though, it gets worse and worse for Unity, from threats from an employee shutting down their offices, to more studios threatening to leave, to scummy secret changes to their terms of service and back door deals with clients to get around the Unity Runtime Fee in an attempt to bury a competitor.
Am I the only one that wishes these video posts had some text explaination for those of us at work and unable to watch videos in the middle of the office?
Done 👌
Thank you!
Excellent work srgnt
I’ve found this useful: https://www.summarize.tech/
Nice tool
If it does what it sounds like, it really should be integrated directly into Lemmy or Lemmy clients.
looks very useful but the description is pretty sus haha

government meeting?
Parliamentary debate or similar?
That’s one for the bookmarks. What an incredible site.
I’ve had that thought about 6 separate times this morning sitting at a hospital. I miss RIF showing me the link before I go to it.
Doesn’t this? (Jerboa) image
Yeah it was added by op. (thank you op!) Very kind
Yes, they did, but I meant the link summary under the link, not the text body. Unless that is also made my OP.
Ah yeah but that summery inside the box doesn’t really give any info

If anyone needed conclusive proof that the word “hipster” is now functionally meaningless, here it is.
This is conclusive. Time of death 11:41, September 15.

Some of us here didn’t grow up in the YouTube generation, where what could be a one minute read has to be turned into a ten minute ad-riddled video with over the top voice acting, “artistic” shots, and useless transitions.
Have you considered that plenty of people probably find your advice stupid and condescending regardless of saying the word “airpod”?
Or that the word airpod was also unnecessary since you already said headphones?
Apple defaultism is pretty dumb on its own, but it’s hardly the biggest problem with your comment.

I don’t own any airpods. Is Apple discipleship so strong that we all just assume everyone has the newest tat?
Quick, check your iPhone…

One gripe I have with this video is that he said the situation at the unity office - namely the supposed death threat by an employee against their employer - was “understandable”. It absolutely isn’t understandable. No matter how shitty your tech CEO is, unless they happily throw puppies into a wood chipper in the office, death threats are definitely not understandable.
What if they only indifferently throw puppies into a wood chipper?
I’m ok with it then
Man, i’ve missed this. 😂
They still shouldn’t do it in the Office. They should do it at home, like all others puppies-in-wood-chippers people I know. Boundaries, Karen!
I assumed the threat was from a developer whose life’s work is ruined by these terms. I wonder what the employee’s motive was.
I presume a day off work.
Boss needed a bomb threat called in
Agreed
I wonder now whether that means that you feel that egg industry CEOs deserve death threats…
Active evil vs passive evil.
What’s the difference between puppy-chippers and starving out families with policy changes?
If the studios don’t switch to Godot and contribute back, they’ll be setting themselves up for another Unity a few years down the line.
If we don’t get together and destroy capitalism itself, we WILL get another Unity every few years.
The easier path is opensource. You can use it today, no need to wish the fall capitalism and do nothing until then

I’m also interested in checking out Stride tomorrow. Hopefully I can find a good alternative to Mirror for multiplayer networking and the FinalIk package I had in Unity.
I’m curious why they chose C#. Maybe to be a Unity alternative without requiring to invest in a new language?
I don’t know, but I like C#. It’s got a lot of features that I like such as extension methods and custom attributes. And I feel comfortable with it.
Godot has C# as an option.
Holy shit, I had no idea about that whole quid-pro-quo bullshit. That’s crazy. Also, that’s definitely super illegal.
