Yeah, I stand by it, ever noticed how effectivness of weapons and general strategy changes when the new wARbOnD drops? They are fiddling with the knobs to make people pay more and there’s way too many opportunities to spend money. And an ingame currency they control how fast you acquire. It’s not as bad as some other games, but I don’t play those.

Didn’t use it much, but deleted my account anyways.

Remedy, you could have sold to Microsoft if you’re going to make their mistakes anyway. Control is one of my favorite games ever, but its assets are not all that, especially once you remove the central third-person figure. If I wanted to play a live service game, I’d play Deep Rock Galactic (much better gameplay, deformable terrain, no-FOMO seasons) or Helldivers 2 (shit monetization but it’s got mortar turrets that flong shit in a parabolic arc that never gets old). Nota bene: when I see shit like “watch three hours of Twitch to get this skin”, I automatically despise your game. I hope you haven’t overextended and this turd is really cobbled together quickly from textures and models you had lying around.

an unlogged user can’t vote.

But an unlogged user can create a new account, no problem.

You use “stalk” for “see what you publicly publicized”. You block people to not be annoyed, not to be safe. Consider that AN UNLOGGED, ANONYMOUS user can also see your posts. How is blocking supposed to work in this case?

knowingly supporting a nazi

First, criteria for what one considers a nazi are open to interpretation and nowadays the bar is ridiculously low. We have a bicycle kitchen cooperative in Croatia where almost all of us volunteers hold leftist views, but there’s an occasional boomer known to say problematic stuff as a shitty joke, or a grandma shows up with her son’s bicycle that has one of the many Croatian totenkopf variants which the kid put up using same protocol as Marge with a potato. We never refuse to help them. I also engaged some of them in conversation and when you get down to the bottom of their exclusionary views you often find they’re decent people with good moral compass and the stupid jokes or totenkopf stickers are adopted wholesale through the media or because of a personal tragedy.

Just get your bread from a different baker.

Sure, the free market will fix it, very American thinking. Sometimes the cure is worse than the disease. Croatia is a good example because our fight for independence in the 90s saw the attempted rehabilitation of actual nazis from the 40s as freedom fighters and Croatian patriots, which means that (still, nowadays) whenever boomers have a celebration with alcohol, there’ll be some singing about the superlative exploits of actual nazis. It’s just the way our society currently is, it’s still our society. The only way to change that is to engage with them and show them you hold a different opinion and are still a relatable human being. I have a feeling most lemmy users would just cancel their entire family if they were Croatian.

If you knowingly patronise a nazi bakery, that’s fine?

I live in Croatia, I certainly buy bread from some nazis unless it’s a franchise bakery that these days employ mostly SEA immigrants. The beliefs of the person selling me bread or writing code I’m using don’t come into play at all, that’s what I’m saying. The left is practically falling apart because of principled children who’d cancel anyone for their beliefs.

You say “knowingly patronise”, I say “buy some bread”. Grownups recognize that we live in a society and people hold different opinions. How can you be sure there are no nazis feeding you, clothing you, transporting you? Especially with the ever-widening scope of that term, it’s on the verge of making no sense, being a catch-all term for stuff people don’t like. Instead of engaging others and finding common ground, people are behaving like kids, completely blocking others out for any documented slight.

Software works regardless of their political posturing. Your baker might be a nazi as well.

No; libreddit is just a read-only frontend for Reddit.

They’ve also kind of devalued them by giving the old ones for free. I got Black Flag and Unity for nothing that I haven’t gotten around to playing yet; Unity’s graphics still looks better than the recent ones, scope and world size notwithstanding.

I’d expect it to be a failure because it’s a 70$ ubishit paint-by-numbers, but I’ll find out in two years when it’s 15$

It was already barely tolerable, and only because gaben’s webrtc doesn’t have noise filtering as good as discord, but this new shit is either fully toggleable or it can fuck itself.

It’s not even liberalism, it’s pragmatism. It’s simultaneously giving software as a commons and trying to restrict it, an extension of culture wars that’s so ineffective it gives the other side an easy win once they set up chudwhale as a script that forks the latest codebase but with no blocklist and a pepe mascot. Just time unspooling. I might be depressed.

I fail to see how it’s even possible for an open source project to dictate what content is acceptable. Also, the entire idea is contrary to rms’ FOSS goals (for any purpose), other than being completely ineffective. I can understand the need for agency and contribution to whatever resistance can be mustered, but this is larping.

What do I think about something telling me preemptively how to feel about a news source? That’s not fact-checking, I’d rather have the news COMPLETELY stripped of source. This paternalistic bullshit can fuck right off, it’s always going to be reflecting someone’s agenda. Since you asked.

Summit, but it’s good enough that I haven’t tried many others.

Imagine pasting this LLM bullshit unabashedly as if it’s something people should sagely nod through recognizing how necessary it is to turn this poor man’s reddit into NSA internal messaging forum. “Better opsec around instance owners”, did you even read that before pasting? Who are you writing that for, instance owners’ handlers?

I’ve never been on 4Chan, but I’ve heard stories of who 4Chan users are, and what their posts are.
