"Automated translation of web content is now available to Firefox users! Unlike cloud-based alternatives, translation is done locally in Firefox, so that the text being translated does not leave your machine."

I got to see the early demos of this and it is jaws-on-the-floor bonkers wizard magic. Entirely local - and good - translation with no cloud service and like 6MB of storage per language.

I think I have the very first tutorial mission down now! #gamedev

May I offer you a can of Windows Home Server in these trying times?

I think about this a lot. Every game is a miracle. #GameDev

Long time no see, Godot 3!

A maintenance update was long overdue, so here's #GodotEngine 3.5.3, with a number of important bug fixes and platform compatibility improvements.

Worth checking out if you have games in production using 3.5.x!

Looks like Android just baked the topics API directly into the OS, and the opt-out is written even worse than how they did it in Chrome. Like paying over a grand for a phone isn't enough.

A long awaited day has finally arrived, Minecraft Wiki has moved from Fandom to https://minecraft.wiki.

We were able to bring a lot of improvements with this move including less ads, a new skin, faster load time and more.

Please visit https://minecraft.wiki/w/Minecraft_Wiki:Moving_from_Fandom for details why we've made this decision.

Soon we will also share how YOU can help entire Minecraft community reach forked wiki.

Thank you to everyone who have helped making this a reality. ❤️

Don’t mess with elderly! They have been around a lot longer

ADHD is thinking about all the things you have to do, getting stressed about all the things, worrying about the consequences of not doing the things, but still feeling stuck and unable to do any of the things.

The Unity's new "softened" pricing and policy changes are NOT good enough and they don't fix anything.

The dreaded "runtime fee" stays!
The nuts CEO & board stays!
They got what they wanted.
They WILL do this again.

Self-reported install counts will still be a nightmare and I am sure Unity will track this silently anyway.

Unity already twice silently altered their ToS.
Another "pinky promise"? SUUURE.

Finish your Unity games, and never look back.
