NAT is not a firewall (as you mention) but the premise that it should be trivial to run an internet connected service isn’t realistic when there are so many bad actors on the network

“Quadruple” moderation is how federation has to work by design. Also the forth “moderation layer” isn’t even a layer, and it actually promotes good moderation because mod logs are public, a moderator can’t go on a power trip and try to cover it up.

The post reads as if some one wired up an AI agent to serially repost content to Lemmy and the agent is having difficulty accomplishing its goal because people would rather have less content than no content.

It reminds me of the agent a few months ago that went on diatribes and doxxed the repo owner when it’s push requests were being denied on GitHub for being low quality

Call of Duty: United Offensive is my favorite game of all time.

MW to Black Ops 1 were good games but I still play UO to this day.

We play competitive S&D every Tuesday and Sunday and casual CTF and BAS servers are populated every other day.

I deleted all of my Reddit posts and comments and came here. Much better place to be, don’t regret the choice at all

Just quick mental math here. If they had every person on earth to pay them a $5 annual subscription. That’d be $30B in revenue, $50 a year $300B, $500 $3T, $5000 $30T.

So they plan on charging every person on earth $5k? Get real

Because most children don’t know this and have unsupervised internet access

I would consider Steam a special case compared to Sony or Microsoft trying to discontinue the production of physical games.

For one, the PC physical market was a mess of DRM solutions. Ones that either required middleware to be running on your PC like SecuROM or Denuvo, only allowed a limited number of installations before voiding the CD key, or required the disc inserted at all times, or a combination of all 3.

So Steam was a welcome disruption, it also didn’t outright replace big box software as a means of distributing PC games, it just phased out naturally. And there is nothing preventing a company from releasing a physical big box edition of any of their games on PC.

But with Sony ending production of discs, even people who want to release their games on disc, won’t be able to in the future

It is a visceral reaction from people who feel like your choices have actively harmed their gaming experience.

Really the gaming industry has been shit as a whole since Xbox tried to pull this crap in 2013. They just kicked the can down the road a decade and we are now feeling it

Yeah it’s a moronic turn of the industry that you can’t actually play the game off the disc and have to manually manage your console’s storage. I have hardly bought any game the last two generations because of it. I’m not going to uninstall a good game for any piece of crap game.

When she first came out, she took her self off camera because she was afraid of abuse and backlash. As far as I know, Linus was nothing but supportive. She just never got back on camera at LMG and eventually moved on

The other LMG talent is so good. Although I was really disappointed when they let Jonathan and Emily (fka Anthony) go.

But I really enjoy Riley, and James and Elijah aren’t so bad either.

Linus’ “I had to buy a private jet or I’ll lose money” video was so cringeworthy though

I have to imagine this was this risk the developer should have considered when making a game shorter than the return window.

The platform shouldn’t have to intervene because the developer didn’t properly evaluate risk when releasing the game
