Des députés veulent "labéliser" les créateurs de contenus. Allant même jusqu'à imaginer réserver certaines aides à ceux qui auront reçu l'aval des autorités.

On tue 150 ans d'histoire de la liberté de la presse et des médias c'est une folie. La création numérique est en danger.
« Beaucoup sont en situation de précarité » : la voie périlleuse des créateurs de contenu d’information, à mi-chemin entre journalisme et influence
RÉCIT - Ces créateurs, parfois issus de prestigieuses rédactions, sont plébiscités par les jeunes. Mais il leur difficile de se financer, tant les mécanismes de monétisation des réseaux sociaux se heu...

Loot boxes, in-game currencies linked to real one, and ads. The two first are straight up psychological violence and abuse (and should be 18+). The third is too though not 18+, but I can't handle ads anymore. I can pretty quickly (or immediately) be disengaged from a game having ads.

I wrote some words for this.weekinsecurity.com about how social media giants (aka: ad tech companies!) track you around the web, even if you don't have an account or use their apps. Follows from a brilliant column in the BBC about TikTok's use of website "pixels" to track people's browsing activity.
How tech giants track you across the web, even if you don't use their apps
Ad tech giants use near-invisible "pixels" on web pages to track what you do online, even if you don't have an account or use their apps. Thankfully, there is a solution.

I'm still thinking about making a patreon or something alike for people wanting to help me make more foss stuff (tutorials, videos, tools, etc...) and games

But I need to make it fair and all, so it's not just me saying, "Can I have money, pliz?"

Idea: an open-source Super Smash Bros game written in #Godot and people can raise PRs to add their own character of their own games to it, including links to their own games.

Réclamer des recherches sur un phénomène bien documenté et étudié depuis longtemps, c'est être anti-science. C'est la même chose que Robert Kennedy qui lance ses propres protocoles sur les vaccins car les anciennes ne lui conviennent pas.

If you have a YouTube creator account follow these quick settings to turn AI enhancements off (YouTube turned them on without asking).

If you are a student in any field that requires this type of software (for art, video, animation) and you are only learning how to use proprietary software, I strongly encourage you to learn about free alternatives on the side.

Development on #wav2bar was calm on January. Though I still added zoom to the rewritten app. The drop-down was replaced by an input for more flexibility (1 to 10000% ... in case of?). "It ain't much but it's honest work."

They should be forced to open source it, it shouldn't be legal to just turn off software thousands of people rely on.

Now you too can play a slowed down version of a game from 20 years ago with no actual level design or enemies and all it costs is a complete collapse of the world economy, biosphere, education system, and multiple entire creative industries.

This is just blatant theft. They were already paying the least of the streaming services, and they give millions to people like Rogan.

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

All these Vulkan rendering fixes are included in
#GodotEngine 4.6, and cherry-picked for an upcoming 4.5.2 release.

The crash rates for Vulkan Mobile on Android were quite bad, so I'm grateful for everyone involved in solving them!
Working around GPU driver peculiarities is never a simple task 😅

Rift Riff had a high crash rate on Android (3-5% of sessions, yikes) due to Godot's implementation of the Vulkan renderer. This throttled our game's discoverability on the algorithm-based Google Play; very bad, obviously.

So… we fixed all the crashes!👇🏼🧵 thread on HOW, below.
