In school in Belgium, we learned that Oceania is the continent and not Australia. So for us, would Australia then be the largest island after all?

What would you consider a fair price for a game? Are you talking about games in general or just games on Oculus?

Out of legitimate curiosity,

1: What are you afraid of, now that the engine is partly owned by Tencent? The engine is OSS after all. What paths do you see for potential break of trust?

2: What are your use cases that you need a game engine for (making mobile games, console games, PC games, arch viz, ...)

3: What points make you feel like Unity is remarkably better?

I'm asking these last 2 points because I'm in the field myself and I do have some different experiences regarding choice of engines. Thanks! * And what do you

Thank you for your reply Luka. Do you personally think E-Ink monitors can offer consumer advantages to LED monitors? Can the same latency be achieved in these displays? (< 4ms between input and result on screen)

Hi luka-birsa, Do you think E-Ink computer monitors will ever be a thing? This is something that I'm personally really looking forward to to relieve eye strain commonly caused by LCD monitors.

Can anybody explain this: "High performance event detection via color map hashing"? Any resources that explain this concept?

I agree it's a good move from Microsoft to make Excel more accessible. It's just not something I was expecting the first time I stumbled upon the problem.

I have a programming background so I'm used to searching everything in English, even though that's not my native language.

I inserted sqrt() in my non-English Excel and it didn't work. I thought I had a completely broken version of the program. Took a while to figure out it was a language problem!

That's what they do with formulas in Excel. There it sucks HARD. Try googling for documentation on StackOverflow for example. Anything you want to copy paste doesn't work because Excel is expecting the commands in a different language.
