Not a studio, this is development like it's the 90s. Though development is easier now with modern tools, but just like the 1990s it's something one person can write.

This was the 90s, so I guess reverse engineering the protocols was simple. There were even Amiga clients of it, like stricq.

You need a second burn just to enter orbit. You burn at the top of the sub-orbital arc (opposite side of the earth) to enter orbit.

the gallery site is amazing in and of itself. the gallery isn't PNGs or GIFs - it's generated in the browser from the emulator state. if you hover over an item it resumes the emulator.

Re:BRICS gold-backed currency coming in August
on Thursday July 13, 2023 @09:03AM (#36708483)
I never mentioned anything about rich or poor. Workers can't work if nobody is hiring. Businesses can't borrow, and anyone who has borrowed faces a falling real asset value with a nominal debt accruing nominal interest. (See 2007 housing market crash for a very narrow example.)
Re:BRICS gold-backed currency coming in August
on Thursday July 13, 2023 @08:24AM (#36708082)
What do you think happens when the profit incentive over any length of time is to neither spend nor invest and simply hold cash? It doesn't end well for that currency or the associated economy.
Re:BRICS gold-backed currency coming in August
on Thursday July 13, 2023 @08:07AM (#36707917)
And a personal investment in gold is in no way equivalent to fixing the exchange value of your currency to it. If you think gold standards prevent manipulation of currencies, well the 1920s would like to have a word with you please.
And deflation is far more destructive than inflation.

Re:Was Starship’s Stage Zero a Bad Pad?
on Wednesday July 05, 2023 @07:48AM (#36599009)
I believe it was acknowledged that the lean of the rocket immediately after launch was unintentional possibly due to the damage of the pad, and later (for possibly unrelated reasons) the thrust vectoring failed completely. Given it took more than 30 seconds for the flight termination to take effect there was definitely non-zero risk there for staff or potentially even the observers a half-dozen miles away.
Re:ChatGPT: Fear Litany
on Tuesday June 20, 2023 @03:32AM (#36400811)
The way Bing Chat works is by providing a full copy of the GPT response whenever a new token is generated. It gets replaced when it produces something that's a no-no. Put Edge into dev mode and you can see the sequence of JSON responses, but possibly not the word that trips the filter.
I couldn't get it to acknowledge that Queen Elizabeth II had died. Apparently the natural death of a monarch (or probably any head of state) is censored, but that means it couldn't talk about Royal succession at all. (May be fixed now.)

The character is mo-capped, you can't really maintain that consistency (which tbh, which I'm not sure existed to begin with) if you want to minimise jank in the character's facial animations.
