It is official: the International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant against Netanyahu, for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Sign the petition demanding world leaders comply with the warrant and arrest Netanyahu if he enters their country.

This blog post details GLASSBRIDGE—an umbrella group of four different companies that operate networks of inauthentic news sites and newswire services tracked by the Google Threat Intelligence Group (consisting of Google’s Threat Analysis Group (TAG) and Mandiant). Collectively these firms bulk-create and operate hundreds of domains that pose as independent news websites from dozens of countries, but are in fact publishing thematically similar, inauthentic content that emphasizes narratives aligned to the political interests of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). Since 2022, Google has blocked more than a thousand GLASSBRIDGE-operated websites from eligibility to appear in Google News features and Google Discover because these sites violated our policies that prohibit deceptive behavior and require editorial transparency.

I have a 2012 Intel Macbook Pro (the version without a dGPU), right now it only has Pop_OS on it, the SSD on the device is only 128GB so I removed the preinstalled macOS, I want to know if I can replace Pop with Windows 10 since the gaming performance is tanked on the old iGPU, looking online I only find articles about dualboot with macOS which I don't want because of the low space, the only worrying thing is Windows doing some voodoo shit ruining essential partitions of the device while installing and maybe incompatibility with Windows boot manager

For context: I’ve been working on the game for almost 19 months now and for a very long time it had a low wishlist count. As I started updating the Steam page with new images and gifs and posting about it regularly the people who were interested in the game grew. Today I woke up to check on Steamworks and it turns out it’s 7000+ wishlist! (It was around 300 for the first YEAR of development).

But here is the thing, I’m not one of those guys who quits their job to pursue gamedev. You see posts like these all the time, I’m not even sure if most of them are even real, but I feel that is a HUGE risk. One I’m not willing to take, as I can’t afford to go two years without pay. A safer thing to do is to do gamedev on the side. But the amount of work you have to do is pretty much like having a second job. I think that if you treat it as hobby you will never get there. So I started treating my free time as a currency and trying to optimize how I spend it. Currently most of it is spent on game dev. Haven’t seen any of my friends for a few months now. And haven’t even turned on the PS4 in the living room since September. I only have time to play some classic games at nights on the weekend. Funny story but the other week at 2 A.M. I was staying late, with just the laptop in the dark and my girlfriend comes in and asks what the hell am I doing in the dark. I was actually playing Splinter Cell, and she looks at my screen and there it was Sam Fisher holding a terrorist at gun point.

One thing I refuse to compromise with is diet and workouts. I try to cook my own food and have only home made meals. I plan for each week so I save time when eating. Something I’ve found out is that it’s pointless to over exhaust yourself with no sleep and shitty diet. In the end you are not in a better state to be creative and as your well being suffers, your game suffers to. So I just work on my job during the day, and then from 18:00 to 23:00 I switch to my game. Somehow I squeeze in there 3 dog walks, 2 meals and a dinner with the wifu.

After almost two years, I’m wrecked. Will do it again tho. I have two cool ideas for other games and I really want to see happen (one is kind of a Psychological Thriller, the other is a Cozy Game).

P. S. Thank you if you have wishlisted it already and if not, please consider doing so : )

Summary

An emperor penguin, named Gus, was released back into the Southern Ocean after being found malnourished on an Australian beach.

Gus, who traveled 3,500 kilometers from Antarctica, was cared for by Carol Biddulph, who helped him regain weight and pass a veterinary check.

Officials emphasized the importance of his release for thermoregulation during the Southern Hemisphere’s summer.

Gus’s journey is a rare feat for emperor penguins.

The destruction of Umm Al-Hiran exemplifies the Zionist view of Palestinians as moveable chess pieces in a game of demographic engineering.

Dungeon Clawler is out! (store.steampowered.com)
submitted 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) by donuts@lemmy.world to c/games@lemmy.world
 
 

Official description: Dungeon Clawler is a Roguelike Claw Machine Deckbuilder. Build your deck, grab weapons and items from the claw machine to battle enemies, discover powerful perks that create game-changing synergies and unleash crazy combos as you fight your way through the dungeon!

My take: I played the demo earlier this year and it was a blast. I'm really enjoying the "roguelite with a gameplay twist" fad at the moment with Ballionaire, Balatro, Solitairica, and now Dungeon Clawler.

The name of the game is absolutely not SEO-friendly, although it's a good name it's incredibly hard to find with search engines for some people. (Especially because Google likes to show you what Google thinks you are looking for, as opposed to what you are saying you're looking for)

At €/$ 8.99 (10% launch discount) this game is almost a steal. It's also on mobile for €/$ 4.99

A little dazed, a little confused, but in good hands in Provincetown, MA. (found injured)

Some will probably kill me for this, but it's from u/Firm_Love3598, and I thought it too good not to share!

Oh, and it really is a Short-eared owl (Asio flammeus). That expression really gets me. ❤️

The mayor of Dearborn, Michigan, home to the largest concentration of Arab Americans in the US, has said that local police would arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he stepped foot in the city.

Abdullah Hammoud shared his statement on X shortly after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants on Thursday for Netanyahu, his former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, and a senior Hamas leader in Gaza, Mohammed al-Deif.

The US is not beholden to the ICC because it is not a signatory to the Rome Statute, a treaty that established the court in 1998. There are 124 countries that are state parties to the Rome Statute, including Canada, the UK, and the European Union.

Not just asking about lemmy communites(would be cool if there is one), but other websites, forums etc.

If you know any good youtube channels, please share them too. When I searched for stuff, it's mostly 5 min craft stuff.

Actionable stuff that most people would benefit from, the simpler/easier, the better.

For example Red Hat Enterprise Linux or SUSE Enterprise Linux.

I'm considering switching to RHEL, to get a "professional" Linux, since it's free if you register an account, but is it worth it?
Is the experience very different from Fedora?
