Rust. It's a qualitative improvement over the old ways.

The future won't belong to Rust itself, but one of its descendants. Rust is too clunky to be the ultimate expression of its best ideas.

From the book: They were insistent. Elrond in particular thought Pippin was going to screw things up, which he did. Gandalf told Elrond they should trust to friendship more than wisdom, since in this particular matter even the wise couldn't see how to succeed.

The churches are the heart of Donnys support. People wonder how this could happen its because of these guys.

Way back in the 1000's, I got detention for ctrl-breaking out of an autoexec.bat and looking around the hard drive. I also lost an internship.

There are also video games in libraries, and there are books in libraries with components that are unusable these days. Nobody is required by law to support these components in perpetuity. Nor is any publishing company required by law to maintain support for a book in perpetuity in any way.

Nor is anybody required by law to help you fix your classic car. People with classic cars spend tons of money to find spare parts or even get them manufactured. This is despite the fact that cars are much more of a necessity than video games.

Likewise, if you paid a video game to keep their servers open, or paid them for their source code, they'd give it to you. If you paid a smart person to reverse engineer the network protocol and write an equivalent server, you'd have your part.

Yes, and if you don't like it you don't have to buy them. It's why I prefer not to use Steam.

If games have to be playable in perpetuity, then you can't buy a game that isn't playable in perpetuity.

But what is also unreasonable is needless, always online DRM that shuts down one day.

There are lots of video games without forced online DRM, and video games aren't a necessity. You can simply stop buying games from these services and let people who don't care about such things continue to buy them.

So you want to legally require game companies to "preserve history" in perpetuity, unlike every other kind of company in existence?

The second sentence isn't true.

 

It's going by fast.

Efforts led by Pres. Biden were key to stopping a military coup in Brazil that sought to reinstate Bolsonaro.

I had no trouble subscribing to this mader.xyz community:

But when I went to other communities on mander, the subscribe button was turned into plain text and I could not click it:

Does anyone have any explanation why? Does mander.xyz limit programming.dev accounts to one subscription?
