Bilb!

Yeah, I have the special edition that will include all of the DLC (It was a promotional gift from AMD) and you would have to pay me to play any of it.

More of this game is not something I’m interested in!

It is.

The people in charge of maintaining Mastodon in particular though need to establish some kind of legal entity and that needs legal recognition somewhere.

As long as there are people who want to make games there will be indy game development going on.

People always say this, but the execs and board members making obscene money for doing as little a possible is the whole point of the endeavor.

My guess is that there was some guidance in the prompt for the names since a lot of them are similar.

Don’t worry about it, the angry edit was meant to be humorous- in general I agree that it’s a mistake to let downvotes upset you.

(And because I’m the admin of my own instance, the votes are made visible through the UI. So if I wanted to be a vindictive weirdo about it, I could… 😉)

I’m a good enough software engineer that this isn’t true. I bet I get paid a lot more than you. 😎

(The above statement is not a truthful statement.)

“In case this is a real question?”

Anyway, I just read through the settlement and I didn’t see any explicit transfer of ownership of he code in there. I’m not a lawyer though, there are some things in there I may not understand the implications of.

On my instance, I follow most of the biggest communities with a “seed account” to fill out the “all” feed. This seems to work pretty well.

Did they transfer ownership of the code to Nintendo? If so, it might be a violation of Nintendo’s copyright on Yuzu itself.

To everyone who downvoted this: You are of low relative quality. Friggen jerks! I dress better than you! GET A LIFE! 😡😡😡😡😡

It definitely has many compromises and I wouldn’t use it for hosting something in production or something like that. (Is that something people do?) It is situationally very useful though, usually for things I used to spin up a VM for. I’m happy to have it available as a tool when I need to use Windows.

I think in threads where an obviously well-informed computer user asks a question about how to accomplish something or troubleshoot something in Windows, it’s pretty much never helpful to recommend using Linux instead. They probably know about Linux. They either must, or want to use Windows. It’s a pretty common occurrence, however.

Though these days, you might get to recommend Linux anyway by saying “you should use wsl2.”

“Instead of working on that project that you were enjoying working on in your spare time, why not do this completely different other thing?”

That’s not reasonable.

Exactly, you never intended to commission an artist because you think so-called “AI art” is good enough to replace them.

Weird argument to make on a piracy sub, honestly. The existence of an AI generated image does not imply that a somewhere an artist lost a commission. Nobody was replaced. It’s not a choice between AI art and commissioned art, it’s a choice between AI generated images and nothing at all because that was the point of his project.

Whether we find it tasteful or interesting is another topic.

Agreed, and I don’t intend to stop at the moment. When I wrote “close it” I meant registration, sorry about the ambiguous language.

I’m aware of the risk, but so far the captcha seems to have prevented any mass sign-up, and none of the few other existing accounts so far have any activity. That said, since I have no intention to support a user base anymore, I probably should close it anyway.

I run my own instance that technically does have open registration, but I can’t really recommend anyone actually sign up to use it. It’s not running on very powerful hardware, and my commitment to keeping it running 24/7 is “as long as it stays convenient and interesting.” There are probably many, many of those. But there are a good collection of second and third tier instances now as well, I’m not to worried about .world’s popularity so long as they don’t do something like switch to a federation allow-list rather than a block list.

Personally, I think it’s okay for things to disappear sometimes. Nothing is permanent. I have no anxiety about this.

I love Jod

You gotta host your own instance so that when it disappears you can only be disappointed in yourself.
