zergling_man, to foss in YouTube alternatives?

Odyssey is/was a LBRY client.

Also strongly discourage peertube; it’s a massive pain in the ass to maintain. I’m not sure how useful an AP video service is to begin with, but you can do it without being that awful at it, surely.

zergling_man, to foss in Following this road is overwhelming

waaaah proprietary services keep breaking ToS-breaking third-party tools, why is foss bad?

Some FOSS stuff does suck, like peertube and pulseaudio, but your problem is pretty clearly your dependence on Google. Surprise, they hate FOSS.

What does that actually do? What’s the consequence of setting it to 10,000?

zergling_man, to piracy in 5TB Gaming Hard Drive on Amazon Has Every Game Ever

I have a zip of flash games about 3tb. And I think that’s after it cut “offensive content”.

You executed the file. Not the OS’ fault.

Are you executing the files you download?

The freest and open sourcest solution

zergling_man, to lemmy_support in What is the little Fediverse icon/logo for that is beside a user's name in a comment?

Under some circumstances it gets called fedilink instead, and sets it as the page’s title. I don’t know what those circumstances are but I do know lynx meets them.

ikr >Rance on the same level as Saya

zergling_man, to technology in Microsoft comes under blistering criticism for “grossly irresponsible” security

I’m in favour of that regulation solely due to how much it would piss off Apple.

Beyond that, anyone who engages these services gets what they fucking deserve. Governments should be required to only use open-source software and host their own servers, everyone else is free to make stupid decisions.

zergling_man, to gaming in What game mechanics do you love and hate?

I have tried Skullgirls. I will not try it again.

Tag fighters are pretty good for this though, you’re right, and especially when you can choose the assist move.

Combos. I don’t like them when they’re intentional by the developer, they need to be something that you feel like you’ve discovered on your own. I hear Baba is You is pretty good about that.

I recently observed a game of MtG where a newish player was playing a scry deck, some premade or something, had a guy who would scry every time a creature dropped, and a guy who would place counters every time he scried. He’d edited the deck slightly, added a creature that spawned tokens every time it received counters. Managed to get them all out at once before realising what he’d done; straight up had to ask if tokens count as creatures dropping because he wasn’t sure if infinite combos were real. That’s a good feeling, because it’s something he did, not something that was given to him.

Contrast League or Overwatch or whatever where the devs have specific ideas about how characters should work and will aggressively destroy things outside of that. Or just modern Magic.

Age of Wushu needed less teleport slots.
