Spacewar! was a F2P PvP game with no microtransactions and no battle pass. Although it’s hard to quantify exact player numbers (it precedes Steam charts), for a while it was the most played videogame in the world.

Its real-time graphics and multiplayer combat were very influential, and widely copied by many other games.

That sounds very interesting, do you remember the name or the author?

If you’re referring to the US’ Video Privacy Protection Act, it was passed only because it slightly embarrassed a Supreme Court nominee.

So for there to be half-decent online privacy laws in the US, first someone will have to leak Clarence Thomas’ Pornhub search history or something like that.

That’s how politics work in the US.

Not really, unfortunately. All these “if you don’t vote for A you’re voting for B” arguments would be a little more applicable if the US presidential election was a simple majority vote, but anyone with the most basic of US politics knowledge has heard of the Electoral College. Hillary Clinton wasn’t elected president in 2016, but not because more people voted for Trump.

And that’s without taking into the account voting suppression. Would you tell someone who can’t vote because of racist laws that they are “voting for Trump”?

Look up the Everburn Blade in Baldur’s Gate 3.

REMEMBER US! REMEMBER THAT WE ONCE LIVED!

It’s the same, but in the US you have to add the sales tax ($2) and then tip at least 110%. That brings the total to $21.

I run my own Synapse server with bridges to WhatsApp and Telegram, along with a few other services, using Yunohost. I haven’t observed any huge resource usage, and I like the centralized management/update. One possible downside is that you won’t get the latest versions immediately, the Yunohost maintainers take time to test those. I prefer the stability that gives me but if you want to be on the edge a docker setup will be better.

This is terrible, and Russia should be punished for it.

The correct way of influencing Spanish-speaking countries is to install fascist puppet dictatorships. Arming and bank-rolling right-wing militias is also accepted, you won’t be getting DW articles about that.

Yes, that’s the plan. The update from 9 to 10 was really easy, the only problem I got was some Python apps which needed a manual pip refresh, but the instructions were all there.

AFAIK, Yunohost on bookworm is already in testing but it’ll be released when the devs feel the update is working correctly.
