In "governance" at the moment people are mostly crew, some are careerism, others are doing careerism.

Neither of these are real friends of any alternatives, they are friendly enemies ;)

As we go , there will be increasingly bad behaver from our more grassroots crew in our organising spaces, this is the normal self-destructive nature of this path.

My friend Björn and I are in the early stages of creating an NGO. Our mission? To bridge the gap between people with disabilities and tech companies/start-ups. We aim to share our experiences and expertise to improve the accessibility and inclusivity of their products and services. We believe there's a significant need for guidance in this area.

We're just starting out and are eager to connect with potential allies and seek guidance on setting up such an organization. If you're interested in joining us on this journey, have any advice, or know someone who might, we'd love to hear from you. Let's work together to make tech more inclusive!

I'm trying to learn to develop multiplayer games in Unity, using the project from Binary Lunar's excellent tutorial:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWPKlpeZUjM

If I simultaneously run a local build on my machine (which happens to be a Linux box) and run the game within the Unity editor, I can create a host in one and a client in the other. They play together happily.

I also made a MacOS build and downloaded it on a separate machine. I can run the game there and create a host.

Strangely, if I then try to create a client from the other machine (either the local Linux build or within the editor), I get this message:

[Netcode] Cannot start Host while an instance is already running
UnityEngine.Debug:LogWarning (object)
Unity.Netcode.NetworkLog:LogWarning (string) (at ./Library/PackageCache/com.unity.netcode.gameobjects@1.6.0/Runtime/Logging/NetworkLog.cs:28)
Unity.Netcode.NetworkManager:CanStart (Unity.Netcode.NetworkManager/StartType) (at ./Library/PackageCache/com.unity.netcode.gameobjects@1.6.0/Runtime/Core/NetworkManager.cs:697)
Unity.Netcode.NetworkManager:StartHost () (at ./Library/PackageCache/com.unity.netcode.gameobjects@1.6.0/Runtime/Core/NetworkManager.cs:830)
NetworkUI/<>c:<Awake>b__4_0 () (at Assets/Scripts/NetworkUI.cs:20)
UnityEngine.EventSystems.EventSystem:Update () (at ./Library/PackageCache/com.unity.ugui@1.0.0/Runtime/EventSystem/EventSystem.cs:530)

This only happens if there is an instance running on the Mac!

Of course, the only time you would want to create a client is if there is another instance (a host) running. It's as if the game running on the Mac and the one running in the Unity editor think they're the same program, and therefore refuse to make a "second" network connection.

What can I do about this?

polecam dla wszystkich w fedi: wrzuć kasę w bagno

Przekaż 1,5% podatku na ochronę i odtwarzanie mokradeł, by były pełne wody i życia - dla przyrody, dla klimatu, dla nas.

Mokradła stanowiły niegdyś ok. 18% powierzchni Polski. Dziś, wskutek działalności człowieka, niemal wszystkie przestały spełniać swoje funkcje. Ponad 85% torfowisk zostało osuszonych na potrzeby rolnictwa i leśnictwa, zmieniając się z pochłaniaczy dwutlenku węgla w źródło jego emisji do atmosfery. W wyniku regulacji i zanieczyszczenia 80% rzek ma znacząco pogorszony stan ekologiczny i znacznie niższą różnorodność siedlisk, a stanu ponad 80% jezior nie można określić mianem dobrego. Gatunki związane z mokradłami należą do najszybciej ginących.

Mokradła są kluczowym elementem przyrody, a ich ochrona i przywracanie do naturalnego stanu są niezbędne dla powstrzymania katastrofy klimatycznej i kryzysu różnorodności biologicznej, a także dla zapewnienia zdrowej i bezpiecznej przyszłości nam wszystkim.

Dlatego wrzuć 1,5% podatku w bagno!

KRS: 0000109564

Pomóż nam chronić przyrodnicze bogactwo mokradeł oraz przywrócić dzikość, naturalność i pełnione funkcje tym unikalnym ekosystemom.

The event is lacking focus and energy from our "cats" so we will likely have a I talked to these guys during the last event, they are new 'native" from the that
bring the "normal" power politics with them.

An event that pushes liberal agendas is fine as a part of a balance.

Though we have our "native" libertarian cats so the balance will be a challenge that we need to work on

🇵🇱 [PL] Chciałbym, aby w przypadku NGO, fundacji i stowarzyszeń istniał jakiś proces publicznego audytu i oceny efektywności. Czy coś takiego funkcjonuje? W tym roku przekazuję 1.5% podatku na rzecz Centrum Ochrony Mokradeł (https://bagna.pl/1).

Ostatnio dużo czasu spędziłem na analizie działalności różnych aktywistów i natrafiłem na liczne projekty – niektóre z nich otrzymywały granty w wysokości kilku milionów rocznie – które, mimo ogromnego finansowania, okazywały się być nieskuteczne, edukując o problemach, które nie istnieją. Czasami mam wrażenie, że niektórzy twórcy NGO traktują to jako biznes i nie mają interesu w rozwiązywaniu problemów, które deklarują zwalczać.

Oczywiście nie liczę na jakąkolwiek odpowiedź w fedi na kontrowersyjne i trudne pytania. puszczam to jako przemyślenie i info dla niektórych czytelników.

🇬🇧 [ENG] I believe that NGOs, foundations, and associations should undergo a process of public auditing and effectiveness evaluation. Is there anything like this in place? This year, I am donating 1.5% of my tax to the Wetlands Protection Center (https://bagna.pl/1).

Recently, I've been delving into the activities of various activists and came across numerous projects – some receiving multi-million grants annually – that proved to be ineffective, educating about non-existent issues.

Sometimes, it feels like some NGO creators have turned this into a business and are not genuinely interested in solving the problems they claim to address.

Of course, I don't expect any response on Fedi to controversial and difficult questions. I'm sharing this as a reflection and information for some readers.
