PonyOfWar,

Their strict moderation has odd blind spots though. I just had a look at their front page to see what it’s like these days. They have a news article up since 15 hours that claims France has sent troops to Ukraine, which is just straight up fake news. Apparently allowed to stay up as long as it fits the narrative though.

PonyOfWar,

Lots of Russia and China apologists there. The interactions of their userbase with other communities often seemed pretty toxic and rude as well, mainly resorting to shitposting with very few attempts at genuine discussions. At least those were my impressions when they were still federated with my instance. I don’t miss them.

Yes, they do, although the top comment at this point talks about how it’s “literally a declaration of war” and the second to top claims that WW3 has started. You have to dig 3 comment chains down until anyone even questions the article. In any case, I don’t see how that’s relevant to my point about moderation.

PonyOfWar,

Paying online, not playing online. I misread it at first too.

PonyOfWar,

Weiß nicht, habe jetzt nicht gelesen dass hier irgendjemand seine Wahlentscheidung rein darauf basieren lässt. Wahlomat ist interessant um zu sehen, wie viel Überschneidung man mit den ganzen Parteien hat, aber am Ende gibt es auch noch ganz andere Faktoren die die Wahlentscheidung beeinflussen.

PonyOfWar,

Habe mir mal die Unterschiede zwischen AfD und NPD genauer angeschaut. Hauptunterschied ist dass die NPD scheinbar bei einigen Fragen für Umweltschutz ist. Interessant.

PonyOfWar,

People feeling entitled on the internet were always a thing.

PonyOfWar,

What’s the issue with just ignoring them? I really don’t think making open-source software intentionally obscure because annoying people exist is a great idea. Ultimately we want more people to use FOSS instead of corporate software.

PonyOfWar,

Man, the state of the games industry is just sad. Also makes me question my career working in an adjacent field, despite my job being safe for now…

PonyOfWar,

I wouldn’t start with retro hardware, those systems have a lot of quirks and limitations that will make development much harder than it needs to be for your first projects. Instead I’d suggest using a modern toolkit like Gamemaker if you want to avoid programming, or an engine like Godot. Lots of good tutorials available for either.

PonyOfWar,

users can reach speeds up to 20-plus MPH fairly easily (that’s 9,743 Kilometers per hour for my non-US readers).

I know you guys in the US have faster e-bikes, but almost 8 times the speed of sound seems a little bit excessive.

PonyOfWar,

It’s not new, nor is it AI. Predictive text suggestions have been in Android for ages now.

Bin mir nicht sicher, ob ich dein Argument verstehe. Der eigene Glaube verhindert ja nicht, dass man für die Religionsfreiheit anderer ist. Man denkt vielleicht persönlich dass die anderen Glaubensrichtungen falsch liegen, aber trotzdem das Recht haben ihren Glauben auszuüben. Religionsfreiheit erfordert nicht, dass man den Glauben anderer glauben muss.

Federation issues with feddit.de?

I’ve noticed that Pawb no longer seems to receive any new posts from any feddit.de communities. For example, if I view the “DACH” community through Pawb, the latest post is from 7 days ago, while on feddit itself, there were many posts in the last 7 days. Both instances still seem to be federated and aren’t on each...

PonyOfWar,

The first thing I though of was how the hell they’ll manage to get around that corner.

PonyOfWar,

Ich glaube wenn man eine nachhaltige Alternative zu Feddit aufbauen will dann sollten die Verantwortung und das Hosting nicht mehr bei einer einzelnen Person liegen. Sonst besteht prinzipiell das gleiche Risiko dass bei unvorhersehbaren persönlichen Ereignissen die ganze Seite ausfällt und man dann wieder woanders hin migrieren muss und damit natürlich jedes mal einen Teil der Userbase verliert.

PonyOfWar,

Für LePen geht es auch darum, sich vor den Wahlen jetzt möglichst moderat zu zeigen, wie es schon für Meloni wunderbar funktioniert hat. Vielleicht sollten wir froh sein, dass die AfD das bisher nicht macht/schafft, sonst könnten die Umfragewerte noch viel düsterer sein.

Games that support the Deck's multitouch

The Steam Deck’s multitouch screen might be its most underutilised feature. Until recently, I wasn’t even sure whether devs could use it for anything more than simple mouse emulation. But I’ve just started playing “Sky: Children of the Light” on my Deck (which is generally a great experience on Deck, especially on the...
