So if you have hard PMS that no longer causes crashes? I guess that's a very good thing.

Maybe I'll pick it up.

Quoting: TheSHEEEP... you are aware that key can be changed in the settings? First thing I always do...

Sure, the point is having a sane default though, this is sane. The original was not.

ALL PRAISE BE SANE DEFAULTS. PRAISE!

Edit: Imagine the Nuclear Suitcase had two nearly identical buttons for [ Launch Nuke ] and [ Dont Not Launch Le Nuke ]

And the moral of the story is, don't push buttons on the friggin' nuclear suitcase.

I'd be amazed if that was a co-incidence.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyThe ironic part here is that, again, if your link is true this is a story of anti-SJW types screwing over other anti-SJW types (the developer/s) by exposing them, and still other anti-SJW types screwing over the anti-SJW developers by boycotting them for, um, doing the bidding of their corporate bosses like any sane person in this society would. And they're all blaming people who aren't transphobic for it. Hey, looks like y'all did this to yourselves.

No. Just no.

Five. Paragraphs. Later.
. . . guess not just no.

This is a - often repeated - story of SJWs causing a tempest in a teapot (stirred by a troll in this case, but that just puts even more blame on them, as they let themselves be trolled, blindly, easily and willingly)

Nonsense. There are people who are offended by certain kinds of talk. I am among them--less strongly than some, but then I'm not gay or trans or such.
That makes them predictable in the sense that if you show them that someone has been talking that way, you know they'll be offended. But that isn't deception, and their reaction isn't blindness. For the people getting offended, they were offended by a real thing that they would get offended by no matter how they happened to stumble on it. If they got the information by rednecks falling out and backstabbing each other, well, whatever, that's not their problem.

I mean, say what had been said was something you do consider important. Say the guy had said he keeps a slave in his basement. If the mob found out and lynched him, it wouldn't matter if he'd been exposed by someone who doesn't care about that stuff and just wanted to get him lynched. It would only matter if he's actually keeping that slave in that basement. You wouldn't consider the lynchers to have blindly fallen for a troll, as long as that's really what he said.

Same here: The troll didn't misrepresent what was said, he presented screencaps of what was actually said. You can argue about whether it was okay to react, or how strongly, to someone saying those things. But how the information arrived isn't really relevant to the people reacting, as long as it's true information.

It is true that the reactions are strong. This is a lot like what happened decades ago with racist jokes. Nobody anywhere civilized tells racist jokes any more. But it used to be mainstream. Antiracists doing strong hostile reactions gradually made it beyond the pale. For a while racists tried to shrug it off. "Where's your sense of humour? You're being unreasonable" etc., but in the end it became clear that racist jokes were just an expression of being racist, and racism is evil, and so. Gradually it stopped being an issue most places; nobody complains about not being allowed to tell racist jokes any more because it doesn't occur to them that that's a thing you would want to do (well, except maybe in some parts of the US or at Stormfront or whatever--like I say, nowhere civilized). It seems like we're in that kind of shift with respect to gays and trans and talking smack about them as a group. So we're going to have this kind of hissy fit, and this kind of counter-hissy-fit, until the racist-equivalent side finally admits it's not a thing you do and then everyone forgets about it.

You seem pretty perpetually offended. So I guess you'd know.

Quoting: Ehvis

Quoting: Purple Library GuyA bit moot currently since I believe Mac has at least 5 times our gaming market share at the moment, so the market is larger porting to Mac anyway.

True. On the other hand, any dev that wants to can create a small partition on their dev machine and try a Linux build for free. Getting an actual Mac to test things on is not exactly cheap. Which, I assume, is why you frequently see games with a Linux port that don't have Mac ports.

Well, that and for some reason MacOS lately seems actively hostile to game development. I mean, I don't think they actually are, but they have other priorities like integration with iOS and Not Invented Here syndrome and things, which work out almost as if they were actively hostile to game development. When it comes to games, Linux is punching above its weight and MacOS is punching below.
