QML is such an awesome UI language, the only thing (that I know of) that comes close is Jetpack Compose.

The flavour of JavaScript QML uses is very different from regular JavaScript, it’s literally a glue language and any significant non-UI logic should be done in C++.

And Qt C++ is very different to most other C++ framework (or how people usually write pure C++), it feels much more Java-inspired.

Anyway, it really is a great UI toolkit if you want something powerful, cross-platform and efficient.

Perhaps I worded it poorly, but my point was that companies shouldn’t go bankrupt when they make a mistake.

If you keep doing it after you’ve been told, then you’re no longer just making a mistake it’s obviously malicious, but I don’t think then Apple should go bankrupt when they incorrectly implement a new law.

While I personally don’t think it’s accidental, you should be more lenient towards a first offense for any new law (unless you can prove it was intentional, which is incredibly hard).

Qt is my favourite, though it’s not .NET.

While true, 568m is a significant cost of doing business. Also remember that a punitive action should not make the company go bankrupt, it should make them rethink.

And if they don’t, the fines will go higher, until they do rethink.

Steam is equally shitty, they just have the advantage of not being publicly traded which means they can create long term strategies and execute them successfully.

Doesn’t mean they’re pro consumer.

Yep, just couldn’t make it run on Win11 last time I tried, nor Win10.

Both the normal and remastered just couldn’t run well.

I don’t think he’s little anymore.

Well, there are games you can’t play on current Windows. Like I couldn’t get Fahrenheit work on it at all. On Linux it worked first try no modifications.

Probably not as many as 20% of games, though.

I mean, not even 500k people in the whole of EU care about this apparently, so we get what we deserve, I guess.

It really looked like it’ll be signed quickly in the beginning, I was really hopeful.

Now I’m not really sure it will pass.

J2ME are old dumb non-touchscreen phones. My last one was Sony Ericsson j108i. And just now reading the Wikipedia entry, it was actually the last non-smartphone phone by Sony Ericsson! Nice.

Damn, the nostalgia is real. And the design still looks much better than smartphones which look pretty much all the same. Back then, phones had personality.

The Sony Ericsson phones in particular had very advanced J2ME support that I didn’t see that much difference between that and my first smartphone (Nokia C5-03). Not that there weren’t differences, the smartphone was definitely more advanced, but it wasn’t that huge of a leap.

Nope, it doesn’t have a controller built-in and its main purpose isn’t gaming. You can’t run PS games on a Switch, does that somehow magically make either not a console?

You can play Mario on old dumb phones using J2ME emulators.

Another likely cause: you’re posting to a non-local community and you got hit by federation issues, while your instance thinks the post got created, the target instance doesn’t know about it.

Happened to me a few times.

Everyone also always forgets that they save money on distribution massively. And that the amount of games sold has increased significantly.

It’s not as simple as dollars had more value, games should cost more.

It’s a console and a PC in one package! Or you feel like the other consoles don’t have an operating system in them?

You can play Switch games on Steam Deck! At least I do. Some play even better than on Switch.

Changed it to murderous to avoid confusion, it did read a little weird.

That’s because our fans are going full speed because of bad Linux drivers. We have to be loud to hear ourselves over them.

Lemmy.ml bans you for shit and giggles, basically if you don’t agree that murderous dictators are the future, you will very likely be banned. If you’re new to Lemmy and happen to stumble upon .ml first (and are not a red fascist), you’ll get the same treatment.

Lemmy.ml is still a big instance, so chances of this happening are pretty high.
