61·27 days agoYou could add UV lights to it to blind the camera. But you are right these don’t have that. This is just a (I think very funny) marketing stunt.

World News@lemmy.world•Go woke, get rich: why rightwing hate campaigns don’t affect the box officeEnglish
61·1 month agowhere are you getting this from? dislikes where? because youtube doesn’t show dislikes. yes, there are extensions that restore that function. but those extensions are extremely imprecise, because they project the numbers based on the like to dislike ratio of their users. But even if I grant you that there where a lot of dislikes, why would you disable dislikes, if they where never displayed in the first place?
All of which brings me to believe that you are lying.

World News@lemmy.world•American-style tipping system is gaining ground in the NetherlandsEnglish
31·2 months agoTo be fair, the system in question does the math for you. It is still contra to European tipping culture though.
The circus maximus (the big hippodrome in Rome) also hosted gladiatorial fights and athletics competitions. The meme is misleading in the way it selects the venues.
It (potentially) allows them to charge at both ends. I don’t know if that’s what happens in Brasil specifically but it happens in a couple of countries.
The providers charge the users for the data use and the services for being exempt from the data caps.

World News@lemmy.world•European Parliament greenlights ChatControl 1.0, will now become law. 276 In Favour, 314 Against, 17 Abstentians.English
4·2 months agoThe vote was framed as stopping the automated renewal of an existing law.
So in favour means “in favour of not having mass surveillance”
My guess (which I admittedly haven’t checked) is that that’s also why a simple majority wasn’t enough (because they essentially would have been overturning law)

10·2 months agoSignal instead of WhatsApp is generally a good idea, but WA is not covered by this law as they are end to end encrypting all messages. Switching to Proton Mail would help, using a VPN (most likely) would not.

World News@lemmy.world•European Parliament greenlights ChatControl 1.0, will now become law. 276 In Favour, 314 Against, 17 Abstentians.English
31·2 months agoWhat changes with the return of Chat Control 1.0—and what stays the same:
- What is coming back: US tech companies are once again allowed to scan private messages without a warrant or prior suspicion. This affects direct messages on platforms like Instagram, Discord, Snapchat, Skype, and Xbox, as well as emails via Google’s Gmail and Apple’s iCloud.
- What remains unchanged: Public social media posts and files hosted in cloud storage could already be scanned without this law. Furthermore, private messages can always be reported by users, or monitored by authorities using targeted, court-ordered wiretapping.
- What is still NOT being scanned: End-to-end encrypted chats, such as those on WhatsApp, have always been exempt from these scans. Additionally, European providers of messaging and email services have never implemented chat control measures.

Games@lemmy.world•Killing ownership is the method, killing the secondary market is the objective.English
1·2 months agoSome countries even explicitly allow you to break DRM to make a backup copy of your physical media.
To pick one country, Germany for example: There it’s called the “right to make a security copy”. Paragraph 69d (nice) of the copyright law states:
The creation of a backup copy by a person authorised to use the programme may not be prohibited by contract if it is necessary to ensure future use.
That means physical copies have, legally speaking, an endless shelf life.

News@lemmy.world•Netherlands confirms it will host Nuremberg-style tribunal for Russia
11·2 months agoI’m not defending Israel, I’m really not. All I’m saying is that the Israeli war crimes fall under the jurisdiction of the ICC and ICJ. You don’t need a dedicated tribunal to prosecute them. The same is true for Russia, except for this one crime that they definitely committed and Israel maybe didn’t commit. This one crime and only this crime needs a dedicated tribunal. That doesn’t make the other crimes any less serviere. It just means that the international community made a mistake and forgot one war crime when setting up the international courts.

News@lemmy.world•Netherlands confirms it will host Nuremberg-style tribunal for Russia
62·2 months agoWell, the ICC and ICJ are more than capable of handling most war crimes, including the ones committed by Israel. This tribunal would exist to fill a hole in the jurisdictions of the international courts: To prosecute the crime of aggression. Russia attacked first. It’s incredibly clear cut. Israel and Gaza is more complicated. Here we got a circle of escalating violence. That makes it a lot harder to prosecute them for this specific crime.

If you follow a tutorial: Switch it up to make it yours. Make small changes. For example: If the tutorial is for a shoot 'em up where the camera scrolls top to bottom, make your game scroll right to left. Stuff like that forces you to think differently about the work, which should help you understand and retain the information better.
There are also interactive tutorials like this one from GDQuest for Godot: https://school.gdquest.com/courses/learn_2d_gamedev_godot_4/learn_gdscript/learn_gdscript_app
