there is an estimation i saw about the development cost of Breath of the Wild, at somewhere between 80 and 120 million USD. Breath of the Wild was 4 years in Development, Tears of the Kingdom spent 6 years in Development.
above 120 million for Tears of the Kingdom doesn’t seem unreasonable.

Mario Movie was 100 Million.

Anyway, both are stupidly profitable for Nintendo

How does crossplay in shooters work?
are controllers genuinely competetive to mouse and keyboard?

Remnant 2 seems to be cooperative? So at worst console / controller players are less of a help?

As of August 6, 2023, The Super Mario Bros. Movie has grossed $574.2 million in the United States and Canada, and $779.3 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $1.355 billion.

[Tears of the Kingdom] sold more than 10 million copies in its first three days of release, and had sold over 18.5 million copies by June 2023.

wiki

at 69.99 a game, would mean the total volume sold is roughly $1.295 billion, 60 million less than the Super Mario Movie.

I’m not certain if the movie gross is the same calculation though. It seems that the calculation is fair But data for Tears of the Kingdom is about a month older so that it seems possible it passed The Super Mario Movie by now.

what’s the difference between box86 and FEX-Emu?

damn, right.

i totally forgot about those, and assumend the mix-up of room temperature and “high-temperature”, because “high” is very relative and confused me as well.

yeah, it doesn’t destroy anything on the worldwide scale.
but it weakens.

erosion is a rather perfect term for it

room temperature superconductors don’t exist. (well… when/if this paper turns out to be bullshit)

High Temperature Superconductors do, and refer to the fact that they can be cooled with liquid nitrogen, and do not require liquid helium.

Firefox will most likely support this, if it doesn’t want to get cut off from most of the web.

well, if more people used Firefox websites couldn’t just throw them under the bus, which is why I said it’s so important.
We’ll have to see, but I’d hope Firefox puts up at least some resistance.

depends how the loans worked.
I was assuming his majority shares of X (ex Twitter) collateral.
And that that he could just go “yeah, go on, collect on your collateral, I don’t mind”, because it’s not worth anything anymore.

But admittedly I have no Idea how the contracts were drawn up, if this is possible and if his other money would be available to collect on.

Several players have said they’ll exit the UK rather than exit encryption.

rightly so.

I’d assume any worldwide player couldn’t be caught in compliance with this, as long as alternatives exist that don’t.
This might have been enough to push EU people away from WhatsApp for example.

I mean, imagine if non-british companies just went “well, no encryption for you, then.”

And disabled TLS too.

Online Banking would probably just have to… stop.
And a lot of other pages wouldn’t load on most browsers requiring https

They are not donating, if I remember correctly fairly recently Microsoft outbid them and bing was default for a bit.

But maybe I’m not remembering correctly tbh.

Depends.

If he thinks Twitter is irreperably dying, this may be a way, in which he can get out of repaying the loans he used to (partially) fund the buyout of twitter.

yeah, well, even the @twitter account now has the X logo.

x.com redirects to twitter.com as well.

Wonder if Businesses will replace the twitter logo in their windows as well.

This is why we need Firefox.

And Firefox needs to be a market that can’t be ignored.

how about gitlab as a self-hosted alternative?

Well, is it really that influental if the second they’d try to use their power, they’d lose the platform?
I see no reason why telegram couldn’t be replaced in this story.

Hijacking this ('cause I’m a Pirate!), is anyone working on making Diablo IV offline a thing?

You may be thinking of motioneye - https://github.com/motioneye-project/motioneye, which integrates with HASS fairly well if I remember.

Pretty sure I was, thanks!

Quite a while ago, I used motion.
It’s fairly basic, but did all that I needed. It’s standalone, so no integration with home-assistant, at least not to my memory.

I seem to remember that there is something that builds up on motion, and I dimly remember a web-interface, but can’t find the package right now.

Maybe an okay starting point, if no-one points out something better
