I agree that it’s the best thing in capitalist society. I feel like if you think patents should exist, software patents should also exist, though.

✨ anarchism✨ sorry, you said revolutionary 😎 /hj

It’s a shame we can only work on one thing at a time

I actually read the part about banning too many people, though I wouldn’t characterize it as “lashing out”. I’m pretty sure I included a quote about it but I didn’t. Weird.

I wasn’t saying they weren’t sympathetic enough, I’m saying that the amount of criticizing here is way too little compared to the two threads linked in the article to shrug off as caused by sympathy.

i get that there’s valid criticism, but the amount of bad was incongruent with the amount of vitriol in that era that were so demanding

the mod author lashed out at both the trolls and people caught in the crossfire

where tho

it is shitty to “joke” about doxxing people

definitely, but none of us have seen the context. i’ve been having trouble finding the discord server, and it’d be great if you could find it and the context

they were not overwhelmed with trolls

that’s how they read, especially when you compare their comments to the reddit post i linked. not even the sympathy for a person who leaves explains the difference to me

well there is an actual definition: violently harming civilians to achieve a goal. but trump’s been misusing it since way back

now before anyone gets misled by some of the reddit threads gamesradar linked to, some quotes from the relevant reddit thread:

I worked extensively on most of her mods. In the period immediately following the Daegon 2.0 controversy, I tracked down several recurring trolls (people here might remember them as cycling through Reddit usernames like “SeranasStankPussy” and other such things) as originating from literal Kiwifarms.

She made a female follower mod called Daegon. It was a suggestive follower with sexy voice and looks, and “bratty princess” personality.

There was an idea about developing romance option for the follower. The fans were so excited about it. However she ended up adding a bodyguard character as Daegon’s romantic partner instead of opening the options to player. Daegon also had a major backstory rewrite, which was deemed as straying too far from TES lore. Fans felt betrayed. The backlash was so fervently hostile that anything the author posted always received downvotes and she was demeaned/harassed for posting anything (something like “you dare to show your face here?”), even when it’s not related to Daegon.

At the time, she removed the old version and people leaked her discord server chat, which was very hostile and demeaning to the people complaining.

Basically: the mod author developed and people on her discord developed a para-social relationship and it went as expected. You can search this sub for that whole thing

There’s more details on her discord (as usual):

my photos get passed around on skyrim servers, im called a slut and whore, and for what?

gamesradar linked to a few of the threads that got overwhelmed with trolls, who amplified how she blocked users (some of which inappropriately) from her mod pages and claimed she encouraged her fans to doxx people based on a single out-of-context screenshot of a random discord fan.

But mastodon has no good algorithm or search

in fact it’s where most of the yuzu devs come from. they forked their infrastructure and GUI from citra

I don’t think you know that electors have a public ballot and people know when tallies don’t match up with statewide popular vote counts. You should read up on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Popular_Vote_Interstate_Compact#Motivation, especially the linked https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Electoral_College#Difference_with_popular_vote which has a helpful graphic.

It’s simple math in which every elector voted for their state’s popular vote winner (and that’s if you discount Bush v. Gore, which I’m assume you’re doing here, otherwise we’d be debating an issue that has no relation to the electoral college at all); all the votes for the losing candidate statewide are discounted. Never has an elector been “paid off” to vote against their state’s popular vote.

that’s not how the electoral college works tho. in most states, an elector not voting in accordance with the state’s popular vote is against the law. trump only gained 3 votes with faithless electors in 2016, and that was a record (not counting the time 63 electors switched because their pledged candidate died); no faithless elector votes counted in 2020 nor 2024.

man where’s yang

It says they’re at full price to me; it’s the HL2 anniversary, after all. The Orange Box as a whole is 90% off though.

since you seem to be knowledgeable about this, i wanna ask: do you think one should use .opus or .ogg as the file extension for OPUS files?

the government telling you that we are indeed fighting isis forces and not for oil

1. are you implying that there is indeed no better choice?
2. webp, but that’s google. jpeg xt, but i see virtually no one adopting that.

well there ain’t no more licensing issues now are there
