Web engine development is more costly than even OS development

Unfortunately, many applications that used to be desktop applications in the past are now programs that run in the web browser. It doesn't matter anymore if they are a lot less effective than being native.

we’re talking costs that often run into the hundreds of millions per year – it’s virtually impossible to fund unless you’re a giant

That is the problem - the web needs to be a lot simpler, browser development should cost fractions of that. It got unnecessarily, absurdly complex.

WoW was just such a massive phenomenon (and still is, tbh), basically everyone at least knew about it, and for so many people it basically became more of a second life than second life (old people joke), massively changing the life of these people (me being a part of it). It was basically the place where social outcasts could be social, which was huge. For me, and many others, it was all the friends they had.

Its legacy now lives on in FFXIV.

...Anything interesting in the recent releases? I stopped following a while ago, I'm not sure there has been any actually exciting features after like what, the redesign of 12

Huh, the 7000G series already required uefi, surprised it took them this long to require that for their dedicated gpus

Nope, they're just available to pre-order with an estimate of shipping from Q3 this year. They're not shipping now.
I just checked, the gmktec link above says that their product is supposed to ship in Q1-Q2 this year, earlier than framework's.

Oh, I thought it's about Tangara

If you're not sure you'd be attracted to him at all then what's the question? Otherwise, did you enjoy the previous activities? You could give it a go once and try it out how it feels for you.

Agreed, as one with long hair I do the thing with pushing them behind my ears so it won't be in my face

"Consent required for free use" I doubt this is legal in the EU.

Not the kind of sidetalkin we wanted
