I can code, try to make games and cool stuff.
Nein.
https://de.wiktionary.org/wiki/fein
Das Adjektiv bezieht sich normalerweise nicht auf deine Zufriedenheit oder Unzufriedenheit.
“I’m fine with this” -> “Ich bin fein damit” ist Zangendeutsch
“machen wir x” “ja” “fein/prima/schön” funktioniert anders.
Du würdest auch nicht “Ich bin prima/schön damit” sagen.
…Leute, das nimmt jetzt langsam die falschen Formen an. Das ist nur witzig solange wir die Grammatik ironisch falsch machen!

Since we’re all here, any chance we can make a small push in the direction of having a standardized “style”/“theme” file that we can plug into the different systems?
@HKayn This may sound cold hearted and I swear I’m not:
There is no obligation for the world in general to pay someone for open source software. (right now)
Everyone should think long hard about writing software and donating time and effort because of this.
I don’t like this state of things, I would prefer some kind of “general usefulness” tax financed grant thing.

🎶 Another bites the dust. 🎶
Moves like this are a bit… strange? It was on github. There are 1.8k forks, with intact LGPL. What is happening here? Is their dev work worth 99$/year ? Not saying people don’t deserve to get paid for their work. I’m just not seeing the business case for this.
Crypt of the Necrodancer
The characters are difficulty levels, some with additional rules.
It’s a rythm rpg, lore character #1 can miss beats, collect stuff, etc.
Lore character #3 can’t miss a beat or miss and can’t upgrade health, so you always die in one hit.
When I beat the 4 chapters with that character I was done :D
@Lunar Zero.
Against the Storm is amazing.
Phantom Brigade fulfilled my high expectations.
Mechabellum was a cool take on auto battling
Nebulous Fleet Command is cool, but not finished and maybe just not my cup of tea, but definitely very much knows what it wants to be and is very good at that.
And the rest are well known good games not released this year.
A single server MMO like eve online, but with real stakes.
In eve, when you die, you keep your character, most of your assets are safe, either by meta gaming or game mechanics.
You can’t *really* harm/steal from characters.
Which reduces the need to work together and defend your character and your assets. Risk aversion and occasional replacement is a valid strategy.
There is more stuff wrong with eve… but the biggest problem is the stakes.
Languages are just tools, so let’s take the shortcut to the xkcd about editors 😁
Imo theoretical #RTS development just stopped after StarCraft and total annihilation.
Sup com is my favorite but nobody really tried to reimagine what “RTS” should mean.
Not like COD -> Doom(2016) did for fps.
So both perspectives are valid and deal with unsolved problems that are unfortunately just hard and not profitable to solve.
“One option to avoid this is to self-host, but then you’ll be identifiable via your domain and have to maintain a server.”
Makes it a non issue.
It’s free as in freedom not as in free beer and that’s that.
Jitsi doesn’t have to offer free service and they particularly don’t have to provide anonymity.
The same is true for the fediverse, since the admins have info that could help identify users. That has it’s uses too.
Trust me, I get it and I agree, #capitalism sucks. Mostly.
But that’s not how it works.
You can’t just take an arbitrary event and claim it came to be despite the circumstances, not because of them.
Like, that’s not how causality works.
Besides, It’s a way stronger argument to point at the overwhelming amount of bad games and bad features and say those got produced under capitalism and that’s why it’s bad full stop.
thank you for your mod work!
@emeraldheart I’m not frustrated, because it’s not a dilemma to me.
Blizzard’s glory days are long gone, WOTC does whatever, I had my fun, and J.K. Rowling is a more complex topic. But assuming she’s “bad” I’m fine with that too.
The games industry is only bleak if you omit the #indiedev scene. there are *so many* cool, new games.
E.g. In the last 12 months I have had a blast with Against the Storm, Phantom Brigade and Mechabellum.
@Pantoffel supreme commander is my all time favorite and “beyond all reason” is a free game, developed by the community that shares some elements.
@MJBrune I think I really like timed challenges even if I’m not very good at them.
Like block -> parry
Also with tolerance areas where you can hit a “passing” “good” or “perfect” score.
@oshitwaddup @yogthos can’t find the source anymore but I saw a video that basically said “the closing of twitter was so chaotic you can claim whatever you want, they can’t check whether you are lying”
So if you are already on board with lying your resume… That? Former “senior backend engineer 5years”?
Obviously don’t put stuff they can just check, like claiming skills they can just test you for.
Also maybe not lead positions those people might be too famous.
As in, where things are, why they are there and how it works as a holistic thing, isn’t being talked about.
Redesigns are graphic or graphic subsystems.
But nobody touches aspects of which settings make sense to put where, taking the education level of the user into account.
And there is no at least semi centralized group that organize that some setups actually work and are well explained. E.g. Sound, If you run into an issue there, good luck finding a support contact or manual.
My main problem is that I have “legacy” games that don’t work on Linux as well as Linux ports and native Linux builds being worse than their Linux counterpart.
#limuxgaming has come a long way and I’m curious and excited to see where it goes, but ease of use simply doesn’t have parity. I want one click installs with identical performance.
The bigger issue with the #linuxdesktop in general is that no distro actually thinks about it as a product. 1/2
Klar, kein Problem, ist aber kein Hochdeutsch.
