Peter Thiel

A right-wing billionaire who is responsible for a lot modern evils, but he sometimes likes to pull the “I’m not evil or racist, I am gay, so I can’t be”.

You may have heard of Facebook, or Palantir, or JD Vance.

Tim Cain, the guy who made the game engine and is credited as the creator of Fallout, has been saying similar things for years.

The game’s page has the “Uses Kernel Level Anti-Cheat Easy Anti-Cheat” badge of shame in the sidebar, so you don’t even need to make it down to the bad reviews before you decide to avoid the game.

How about am open source gay bear beat 'em up?

Can’t find it on itch.io anymore, but it’s on the dev’s website.

For those unaware, this isn’t something like replacing a slur with removed, he edited users’ comments, turning them into insults to other users.

I don’t care that those original commenters were (likely) pieces of shit, and the people who he made the comments insult were definitely pieces of shit, putting words into people’s mouths to make them fight each other is unforgivable. Even if you put out a shitty apology.

The biggest weakness is multiplayer games with aggressive anti-cheat. So those are the types of games you play, continue to stay away from Linux.

But for most games on Linux, it is just install and play now through a platform like Steam. I haven’t run into a game that I want to play that doesn’t basically “just work”.

I would say that most people who own a computer use local apps, and that the experience, and long-term costs, of using a local program is often better than doing something completely cloud-based.

They use data from webtraffic to make their charts, so talking about local apps doesn’t really have much to do with this website.

whether or not there are better sites for exchanging coin to cold wallets with lower fee’s that are trustworthy.

Nothing connected to crypto is trustworthy.

Formatting thing: if you start a line in a new paragraph with four spaces, it assumes that you want to display the text as a code and won’t line break.

This means that the last part of your comment is a long line that people need to scroll to see. If you remove one of the spaces, or you remove the empty line between it and the previous paragraph, it’ll look like a normal comment

With an empty line of space:

1 space - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don’t really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

2 spaces - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don’t really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

3 spaces - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don’t really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

I am also on team bar soap, but body wash isn’t always “soap”, it’s sometimes a detergent.

Which is another reason why I am on team bar soap.

Everything we do is kinda shitty and bad. My shirt was bought from a mega corp that kills local economies, a sweat shop or child labour was probably involved at some point, the cotton in it might have been farmed using slave labour, I could go on, but we both know that the clothing industry is shitty all the way down. I can’t go to work naked or grow my own cotton, so I try to be less-bad in other ways. I choose to eat in a way that’s less-bad for the environment, and doesn’t directly profit from killing animals.

It’s about proving who was the original creator/user of the IP, instead of who is the first to file to have that IP protected.

The flipside of this would be having random holding companies just mass filing for ownership of everything posted online, said, written-down, or created, in the hopes that they get approved first so they can sue others, even the creators, for using it.

Look at the “very demure, very mindful” woman, Jools Lebron. Someone else (Jefferson Bates) file to trademark the saying because the original creator didn’t think to until after it was viral. Because the laws are ultimately about proving who was the creator, and not who filed first in the USA, it’s likely that Jools will get ownership, eventually.

I think some will exist in that time frame, but I don’t think they’ll be any good, or well received.

IN the near-future of gaming, but not BEING the near-future of gaming.

That could be the future, but not anytime soon. I haven’t seen anything AI gen that has enough continuity to make “on the fly” story telling something I’d be interested in.

Yep. He plays a much larger role in DISC

How, if possible, can I log in to say, discuss.online above, with this account. Or do I need to make a second account over there.

You can view/comment/vote on all of the content there while logged into lemmy.world. As an example, you should be able to click this !flipperzero@programming.dev and participate there. or !AskUSA@discuss.online.

Also, related, is there a way to just, use my Mastodon account, and drop this one completely?

I am not a fan of “microblogging”, so I am not 100% certain. I have seen a lot of posts/comments from Mastodon on lemmy instances, they are the people using hashtags.

Kbin and Mbin are Lemmy-like systems that also hooks into microblogging much easier, so you might be able to do a one account thing there much easier.

Again, not certain because microblogging is not my jam.

That is the actual formatting for all of Lemmy to the best of my knowledge.

Some of the apps people use don’t do formatting properly.

It really depends on the Articles (of Incorporation, of Amendment, of Continuation, etc.) and the Bylaws.

I completely agree that the quality of the story is kinda the whole point, but I am tired of seeing comments like the one RightHand made; complaining that she is a woman just because she is a woman.

If women make up around 50% of the people on earth, shouldn’t they make up around 50% of the main characters?
