Born in the early 80s, the 90s been my youth. Reading through the comments here I realize there’s nothing I miss from the 90s. Every single thing mentioned here has either been replaced by something better, or isn’t gone in the first place.

Mostly because they have to wait for Half-Life 3 in order not to confuse the customers.

Not having 60 fps might be an issue for a shooter or anything that is built on fast reactions, but it doesn’t really sound like an issue in a city builder.

According to Wikipedia, they were arrested 3 years ago, not 5. Of the 9 people arrested, 2 were released after 3 days, the other 7 were charged, but only 1 of them was still kept detained after “a few months”, and he was released for health reasons in April (though he still is charged).

Same for me. And the individual games have prices > 0.

EDIT: 15 minutes later, now it works.

Given that in the very same post he wrote “we need to go back, way back, into the mists of time, when dinosaurs roamed the earth, and we started working on TF2”, did you consider it could just be a joke?

Microsoft Teams has a completely different technical base than Skype for Business. Other platform, other language, other tech stack, other APIs, other protocols, other features. The one that just was a reskinned something was Skype for Business, formerly known as Lync, formerly known as Office Communicator, formerly known as Windows Messenger, formerly known as Exchange Conferencing, …

The English voice recordings for Cyberpunk 2077 were all done in London and LA. So it’s basically sure that it wasn’t Poland, and it’s much more likely that it was LA than London in this case.

And then call it “critically important for everyone” when it only affects the users of one particular tool (which used to be popular 20 years ago, but is one a decline ever since).

Is there really not a single answer saying “I would rather not make everybody’s lives more inconvenient just because I could”?

If there would be the kind of budget you’re talking about, they’d just buy a house, or rather three (one to live in, two to rent out, to re-finance the other one) and that whole question would be obsolete.

When you were deciding for this processor, Intel’s similarly priced i5s were no match for it, so if you were looking for Intels as well, you likely would have had an eye on the i7 processors of that time (for a minor performance benefit at a heavy price tag). So maybe that is where your 7 is coming from.

but is a given that the more expensive the wedding is, the shorter the marriage might be.

So have a dead cheap wedding and the marriage will last forever?

Blink has a younger code base that’s easier to build on. Gecko has been around since the early 90s and has some ancient evils lurking deep within.

They both are of very similar age actually. The old Netscape rendering engine originated in the early 90s, but Gecko was a rewrite from scratch that was first used in a browser in 1998.
Blink is based on KHTML which is based on khtmlw, which was written at some point in the mid-90s, but as well saw a complete rewrite in 1999.

It didn’t occur to me that you wanted to say “until”, my response would have been much shorter otherwise ;).

Thanks for the pointer. This really looks much more pleasant than vanilla Lemmy, I’ll have to keep an eye on that.

Since a month ago, before the blackout, he build kbin by himself

Per that link you gave, ernest started building kbin in January 2021, launched the first instance in September 2021 and started to work on kbin full-time in the end of 2023. Not directly mentioned in that link, but hinted by the graph there, the kbin.social instance launched in April, now close to three months ago.

That doesn’t seem to work for kbin, does it?

Not only resources for moderation, you would also have to pay the servers. When running multiple fediverse servers, and having some expectations in terms of availability and performance, costs sum up. Your funds are limited, and if they come from donations, those people did not donate for you to spend on additional, not directly project-related infrastructure, but to work on your actual projects.
