China isn't really desperate for cheap natural resources as much as they are desperate for markets to export their manufactured goods.
Thus killing local manufacturing.

Someone should keep an eye on Linus.
Why someone keeps chasing the latest gadgets when the old ones work just fine is beyond me.
Nobody is waiting every year for the brand new line of washing machines. Why is there a need to swap phones this frequently?
I imagine it wouldn't take long until someone finds a way to disable that LED.

Yes the interface is a mess. But it's ridiculously deep once you get into it.
The CEO of Unity was also CEO, COO, and president of EA. So, is anyone surprised?
Or even better: buy soon to expire put options just before the announcement. 10x your money.
Damn... that's rough.
Hopefully they'll backpedal on this decision for now (they are already getting a lot of flack). But I guess the message has been sent. Wouldn't be surprised if Unity starts bleeding users after this.
Best of luck!
For the studios releasing a game in a few months, it's probably too late to ditch unity, but would make sense to start looking at alternatives for their next projects.
Wouldn't be surprised if Godot explodes in popularity in the next 5 years.
According to the article, it's not retroactively charged, but still bad if your game is about to come out and you haven't accounted for this.

What are you on about?
African countries have been flooded by Chinese goods, to the point that it has killed the local manufacturing in Africa. Look it up.
They don't have the service industry the west has, so the only thing they can offer in return are raw materials, which China is happy to take.
Lemmy seems to hate went a western company exploits natural resources in Africa, but when China does it, they are somehow saving those poor people from the goodness of their hearts.
