I’m a game dev, so I’ll have to at least keep around either a Windows VM or a dual boot system, since Windows is still very popular.

1. Go to the Minecraft servers of OpenAI and similar corporations.
2. Find a room called “AI server room”, all while avoiding of defeating the mobs protecting the area.
3. Destroy everything there.
4. Go to the offices.
5. Destroy everything there.

At least Skibidi Toilet does not contain jokes about “surprise buttsex”…

Did this to my GameSir hall effect pad too on the very first day.

A lot of these kind of people often let (or even request) you to call them by slurs, often as an attempt to get bonus points from the far-right.

Yeah, there’s a good chance he’s either a naïve moron that thinks Meta has good intentions, or a techbro that soyfaces at any proprietary technology that has incorporated a trendy technology.

1. I already had issues with Reddit long before the API drama, due to spam, etc. However when the API drama dropped, I almost 100% switched to kbin, save for the rare occasion I found some useful info on Reddit, with the occasional tumbling into some other interesting threads.
2. I post more often to Mastodon, slowly leaving Twitter too, I just need to convince my fellow authors to do so, to give me even less reason to use it. I however decided to limit posting updates of my game engine to Twitter, and instead use the main account now dedicated for it ( @PixelPerfectEngine )
3. I haven’t heard of Matrix, I’ll look up it. I don’t have any major gripes with Discord so far.
4. Peertube is fine and dandy, however it’s even less adapted than other Fediverse platforms, all while YouTube would be mostly fine IF IT DIDN’T ACTIVELY TRIED TO SABOTAGE MY FIREFOX! I EVEN PAY FOR PREMIUM AND MEMBERSHIPS!

I don’t really use any other save for following a bunch of Misskey accounts with my Mastodon. However, I was thinking on creating a federated game launcher/gaming-focused social network similar to Steam. Some parts of it would use ActivityPub (especially public stuff like achievements), others XMPP or something similar. Issues are the question of a copy protection system, and an anti-cheat system. Banning pirated copies of the game from official networks is probably easy even with open source tools, and likely not so controversial. Anything more than that would require more complicated setups, such as a lot of proprietary stuff, not to mention are very controversial, especially with gamers. Anti-cheat systems are also a though issue, likely being the responsibility of the developer, and also there’ a lot of controversy with them with kernel-level anti-cheat systems.

Also GPU drivers.

If you’re mad at NVidia for their closed-source drivers, then remember that ARM seldom makes their Linux drivers available for free, so you have to either have to deal with absolutely no GPU driver while the CPU does the graphics rendering (might not be a big deal on a NAS though), or with open source drivers that are less capable than the Nouveau drivers and even fiddlier to install. The ARM Mali driver issue is so bad I was legit thinking on a solution to run the Android binary blobs (which at least are available by ripping them off from the Android kernel) on regular Linux, a lot of function call redirects would likely take care of that issue.

ClosedAL

I’m from the generation that used to have sound cards, and I’m very sad about what Creative did to the industry…

For them, getting rid of the Jews by sending them “back” to Israel is a convenient method. They can deny wanting a genocide, since they instead want a massive relocation. Remember the “peaceful ethnic cleansing” phrase? It’s just like that.

My first encounters with it were very rough to say the least. Developers getting used to the jankiness of the graphical user interface (if they had one), was commonplace, and often I was pulling my hair when I was forced to use older versions of Blender and similar productivity software, and any suggestions for UI improvements were met with massive resistance from the developers, due to wanting to avoid “spoonfeeding”, and “not introducing users to write their own shell scripts, thus making them lazy and never discovering its feature of automating complex tasks”.

However, this changed when I started to get into drawing and downloaded Krita. It showed me that open source software doesn’t have to be an absolute nighmare to use, and not hiding handy but less-commonly used features behind a barely documented CLI. Even Blender became more usable in my experience than many more expensive 3D rendering software.

I have a fetish for autism.

I’ve developed it once I’ve noticed I only had some advantage with girls and women, who had pretty obvious neurodivergent traits, so later on in my life, I started to be attracted to it more and more.

If I replace all of its code line by line, will it be the same ship? If no, at which point does it become a different ship?

Eventually they will join, but will take a while…

It just takes a bit of time, then people will evetually come to the fediverse.

Well, more people for the Fediverse then.

Creators! Please come to the Fediverse! You can’t forever rely on corporate platforms. I was there when Facebook got enshittified, now Twitter tries to speed run it. And no, Elon was never a good guy, and he didn’t make the electric car.

Not really, a big driving factor behind making devices irreparable is to uphold the illusion of infinite growth.

That only works sometimes. Many receivers are only PS/2 compatible, especially older ones.

Twitter nowadays is like an unclean toilet that barely flushes.
