Then he really shouldn’t have a discord server where he offers tech support.

It’s one thing to not give anyone lemonade, you’re never obligated to do that for no reason, however it’s another thing to set up a free lemonade stand and tell whoever tries to get lemonade that they’re annoying and to go away.

I think HellOS comes with demonic teeth drivers right out of the box.

“We can save the world from fascists, we just need to throw these particular people under the bus”

Sounds like a solution to me

You’re not doing it right, friend.

I feel like I’d really love Russia if it weren’t for everything they’ve been doing for the past ever

The main problem with Minetest for me, sadly, was incompatibility of the APIs and the general disarray of the modding scene. Most mods seem to be made for Minetest’s APIs, but games like Voxelibre use new ones and if I remember right their response to being incompatible with 99% of mods because of that was “it’s not our fault they’re all using outdated stuff” despite the fact that Minetest is simply being maintained and not updated, so they aren’t going to change their APIs.

The concept of simply copying minecraft is problematic on its own, too. Voxelibre is almost as illegal as a pirated version of Minecraft, it’s just not popular enough to get put in a court for it. It simply copies way too much, and that’s the same for all of the minecraft clones on the platform. So much development time across multiple projects is being put into just ripping off Minecraft to the point of being legally so, and at that point why not just pirate Minecraft? It’s compatible with all the mods from my childhood and wouldn’t be connected to a server that could be struck down at any time for hosting MC ripoffs.

So then I thought Minetest and a bunch of mods for it would be a better option, but I just can’t figure out a modlist that can compete with one from MC Java. They’re all so incoherent and don’t work together well. There’s a gun mod on one that, while it might’ve been okay for Minecraft, on an entirely new fully open-source platform it’s underwhelming. Whacking with the gun to shoot while something like MrCrayFish’s gun mod existed for MC just made me sigh.

I’ve decided I want to develop mods for Luanti and explore how the engine works to get a good handle on voxel game programming, and maybe fork the engine for my own game someday, because I admire how incredibly performant it is, but I’m not gonna play it much until I’ve learned add what I want and not just play around with other people’s stuff anymore.

Microsoft for the past 17 years: We have a monopoly, so we can just copy people and become more popular than them. Aaaany day now. Anyway day now. Any day nowwwwww…

As an American who can’t bear to play most online games because they might go down or disallow Linux users, please please please please check. EU laws are our only hope of having usable fucking technology.

The thought of being able to mod and host my own GTA 5 online server when it goes down, without some weird custom server mod that also uses Windows-exclusive anti-cheat on most servers, sounds like a damn dream. I miss that game… but fuck Windows, nothing is worth installing Windows. I just realized I’ve been ranting about the lack of Linux compatibility of GTA 5 Online in reply to someone’s comment about how this petition has gone on for a while. I swear I wasn’t hijacking your comment, I just have strong feelings about Linux gaming and got carried away.

My mom has a smaller version of that lamp. It is a cherished curio.

I’m actually from the future, I was talking about Atari, the interkiric rockware organization based in Florida, Canada

While Napster did get decked hard a long while ago, it’s still a well known cultural icon, so some company was inevitably going to buy the rights to its branding/trademarks after it ate dirt to attract attention to whatever product they decide to slap it on.

The same thing kinda happened to Atari. That company got burned to a crisp by Nintendo and Sega after the 2600, but some nobodies bought it and things keep having the Atari logo even today because it was a well known brand. It sucked ass and failed… but we remember it.

Some people still think it’s only advertising and that the advertisements don’t work. That’s even scarier.

That’s not code, that’s a picture of a sheep! This code is most dark!

The ai that’s been trained specifically to predict trends: ;3

And yet, they still think they’re too good to put track pads on it.

I don’t think these companies are aware that what made the deck popular was it knew what it was and that it had a lot to prove, and so it featured a very focused design that differentiated it from PCs as a worthwhile form factor, but also provided methods for adding compatibility to just about any game, and thus allowed it to compensate for being in a form factor that is just sometimes inherently inconvenient for PC gaming. It wasn’t just a gaming pc with an Xbox controller taped to it, which this is.
