store costs to developers/publishers are insanely high for a digital distribution platform

Isn't the 30% cut what basically everyone takes? AFAIK GOG, Ubisoft, EA and all three console manufacturers take the same share.

Besides Epic only itch.io with their choose your share system and Discord (do they even still sell games?) take/took less.

I want to add that you should consider that your teacher is teaching you fundamentals of programming. break and continue are often options to use, but you shouldn't try to solve everything with them. You are probably writing pretty basic functions in class right now where it doesn't really matter, but with more complex problems break and continue constructions might easily get pretty messy.

Also your teacher has a plan what to teach you over the whole semester. If recursion is part of this plan it's valid she wants you to understand the basics of calling functions first. This might be overkill for easy problems but it could help you to be a better programmer in the future.

No, no, you have to delete your git config. That's part of the challenge.

I'm also back on 60 Hz on my 160 Hz monitor because of this challenge. So cute though.

That's because Ahsoka a.k.a. The Sabine Wren Show is actually Rebels Season 5.

+1 for Cherrytree, I can even recommend it on Linux. The tree structure makes it so much better to sort things than OneNote with the limited depth.

Finally we will know what happened between Empire and Wednesday.

It's not that long ago that I played both KOTOR games for the first time and I have to agree that the game might not be that intuitive by today standards. But now after a lot of people played BG3 it might be not that hard anymore to figure this game out.

I think it would be a horrible idea to butcher the canon again and reboot the whole series.
I think the TV shows are doing fine and (would) work pretty well without the original cast. I'd probably like if they just cut the ties with the original films and just let the upcoming movies play in a future (or past) where the original cast is not necessary for (but pls leave The Old Republic alone).

Today SD is actually cheaper per gb than Blu-ray.

Just checked Amazon prizes for the first best SD card and Bluray disc. This is a lie. Discs are still less than half the prize.

And you didn't take into consideration that it's much cheaper and faster to press the data onto the disc than writing on an SD card when you do that in great numbers.

This. Tried both kbin and a lemmy instance and although the kbin experience at the beginning of the week was shit (slow and no federation) there was still more new content on then Frontpage than on lemmy (or I was using it wrong).
