MY DUDES #OffTopic

OK, folks, #BLENDER for Nokia N95!

Long story short: should work with newer phones too (up to Symbian Belle OS), but touchscreen isn't usable, so you will have to connect keyboard and mouse via OTG.

Models with 3D accelerator will obviously work better than ones without it.

#Apple is under investigation for violating European regulations and will face a fine up to $38B.

Among other rules, companies now have to ALLOW USERS to install custom apps and remove the default ones.

Apple instead allowed other companies to add their own stores but they still have to pay huge onboarding fees and certain revenue shares. European authorities assumed these rules are absolutely not what the law requires. They launched an investigation that will end in Spring of 2025.

For the first violation the fine is up to 10% of revenue or $38B, but it will double for the second one and may lead to other limitations.

Here's how the color appeared in movies — by lying that colors exists. It's worth to know if you want to make games with good visuals:

Remember #Unity promised to become better for the developers and leave all creepy practices behind, *wink-wink*?

It seems, that they are now spying on you with #AI, and they only inform customers in #Europe since they have to due to local laws.

Meanwhile high-end games on iOS failed miserably. None of them break even. Some say the issue is that only the flagship devices were able to launch them, but in my opinion the issue lies deeper:

None of them worked well. Like not even close to being properly optimized, improved for smaller screens, etc. And input delay was sometimes up to several seconds.

Death Stranding was probably the best of all in terms of the performance and inputs, but still it was only playable on MacBook, not iPhone.
