The problem is that some people are “so copyleft”… that they fall into the MIT honeytrap.

Crazy talk, and you’re onto something… that’s been solved already.
First part: you hate that a 10+ years old game is only getting cosmetic changes instead of a rehaul of the whole character model. That’s crazy, nobody’s going to do that, not the ones expecting a profit, and not the modding community doing it for free. If you feel it’s a silly change, you’re right, but realize that it’s the only change they could do.
You’re onto something: body feature sliders. Male, female, giraffe, and turtle bodies, have some structural differences, that however mostly match to the same bones having different shapes. The solution is a body shape slider, or 50. It’s something that existed, in some games, since at least the 2000s. Others were lazy and didn’t do it.
For reference of how far this could go, the following all have the same bones, only change in shape, size, and muscle placemen:
Games could have multiple protagonists with different bodies, genders, personalities, etc… something like Overwatch did have that, you could even play as a hamster or a robot!
For me it got fixed in 1.20.0 from May 8, 2024.
2010 was already tainted by the iPhone walled garden.
Windows users call that “installing”… 😈
When was that?
The official F-Droid app had an issue with not deleting downloads on systems that didn’t run it correctly in the background. That has been fixed some months ago.
(TIL about “rice”… is anything in the US not racist? 🤦)
Unfortunately. It’s the private place of choice for people to conduct shady business… all the way to US Presidents like Lyndon Johnson:
Could be a chat or email trail. People nowadays often forget the difference between talking something over at the urinal, and writing about it in an app.
It’s a “sister organization”. Laws are different in different parts of the world, so it makes sense to have different “forks” if you wish.
Yes, that autist that’s done more in 40 years than anyone else in the world.
The one that doesn’t have any translations
Seems to have some translations:
Parldigi
What is your proposal for a “worldwide” Parliamentary Group? Do we wait to establish a World Parliament, along with a World Government, or is there something we could do in the meantime?
Like this?
The Free Software Foundation (FSF) is a nonprofit with a worldwide mission to promote computer user freedom
Est. 1985.
Redundant, like the server staff who told Elon it would take 6 months to move the servers… so he decided to move them himself on a whim… and it took 6 months to finish making them operational again?
Or redundant like the content moderation staff, whose redundancy has turned X into an even bigger dumpster fire?
Moderating and serving the content from 300 million users, worldwide, in near real time and no downtime, might seem like a simple task, but it really is not.
Keyboard and mouse… but the Steam Controller is cool too.
Other than that, any PS clone. The long thin horns fit my hands better than others.

Option to change it to any flag?
Using the term “freeware” is silly, but consider this:
Is the act of reading/watching something, equivalent to making a copy? Freedom of thought is an agreement much older than the 1990s, it has nothing to do with copyright, and all to do with secrecy. If something is made public, then it isn’t secret, so obviously anyone can read/watch it, be it with a wetware neural network, or an AI neural network. Making an exact copy is either plagiarism, or copyright infringement… but abstracting a style, then applying it to some other data, is “inspiration”.
Imagine a website with a licensing disclaimer like “you are allowed to read the content, but not to comprehend or express any thoughts based on it”. Nonsense, right?
Well, there is an OpenSource client, and private servers with custom rules. That makes every modification possible.
