What's the most awful about this is they didn't offer this to me while I was subscribed. "Offer for being a loyal member". If you REALLY cared about your loyal members you'd have given this to me while I was subscribed and NOT when I was about to unsubscribe

these tactics feel like they should be illegal. it's annoying enough as it is that i have to press Cancel Subscription 3 times with their insane begging.

This is actually quite a good deal. So If I was intending to stay subscribed, I could get a secret 37% discount by going to the cancel subscription page.

That means essentially everybody can just pay 6€ less with no downsides? If that's the case then let's just lower the default price to 9.99 hmm?? Yeah didn't think so...

Unreal, called the industry standard by many techbros, doesn't have a button to revert unsaved changes to files. You have to check it out in version control and then you can revert your changes.

Unreal... I didn't even change the file!! YOUU changed it without asking me. Just let me discard it for gods sake how hard is it to add a single button

Trying out some different color and lighting styles. And what a challenge that is... trying to do something new that still feels like it fits seemlessly into the original work

I like Github webhooks for Discord but I also wanted to see what files were being pushed in the commit, so I can see at a glance sort of what files other people are editing.

So a while ago I made a little script running as a Cloudflare Worker. I simply configure it as the endpoint of my GitHub webhook and it'll act as a proxy, creating its own Discord webhook with all the info I could ever want! Cool use case for edge compute

Put it up as a gist if it's of use:

Disneyplus strikes again! I wouldn't have this had i pirated the movie :) great user experience!
My boot drive started to fill up pretty quick so with my newfound power of file pilot i was able to sort the biggest directories really easily.
I found this 50GB LOG FILE THAT'S BEEN SITTING THERE FOR 2 YEARS

Esbuild is so insanely fast that i'm actually using it for HOT RELOADING now...

Yeah, using a full tree-shaken bundle in my hot reloading dev server. It's faster than tsc

Fuck you too disney what the hell am i paying you for

And streaming is meant to be the future hm? An insolvent business practice that delivers worse quality to customers. Weirdly enough the "local" files i have never have this issue hmm

In the final year on Portal Revolution, one quite annoying hassle we faced was frequent map updates. As the lead mapper, I always had latest maps at hand, but I was alone with that luck. The others had to either copy paste files from latest playtest builds or compile them on their own machine, which could take hours for the whole game.

For revo 2, I now set up a dedicated map compile server. On every git push, I compile it and make that available for easy download right in our tooling
