Oh, absolutely. I would even say that description of their attitude towards workers rights is an understatement. I’m just talking about their lofty goals for the project and how even with the best engineers and best workforce in the world their stated timelines are physically impossible
It’s almost like they set a bunch of absurdly unrealistic deadlines and now cannot figure out how to meet them
It’s going to stay on my wishlist but I think I’ll sit on it for a while Thank you for your response!
Wow! Thank you for the detailed response, based on your comments and those of the other responder I’ll probably pass on it for now, I’m deeply uncomfortable enough on my own thank you.
Who knows though, it may still end up in my library later when it goes on sale. I have a bad history of that.
Is this game fun? I have seen lots of recommendations for it but the name of the game along with some of the art has me worried it’s going to be deeply uncomfortable. To anyone who has played it: how would you describe the mood of the game?
You had me at mortal engines
Coming in scents like “PRIMEVAL GRIME” and “WOODCHIPPER”
Careful, from what I hear its an incredibly time consuming one
Mans living in an alternate reality where Fallout and FarCry switch
In Japan, it’s already tomorrow!
It’s a shame what they’ve done to the pug over the last 150-200 years
I mean, yeah. It’s an industry that has a near-unlimited supply of starry-eyed fresh college grads to throw into the meat grinder, and the executives of these companies absolutely love to take advantage of that. Maybe if enough devs leave the industry they might finally have to start respecting the people who work for them out of necessity.
That’s a cool project! I’d love to see more translation layers making vendor lock-in less of an issue
My money’s on bigger
While I agree that an IPFS solution could be quite resilient, I’m not sure that the average person is willing to put up the resources or risk of hosting content. CSAM, copyright, etc, all become more of an individual risk that you’re relying on moderators to mitigate for you. (Rather than the risk going to the server hosts typically doing the moderation covering their own ass)
Additionally, while there may be decent representation of people willing to do some small amount of hosting of services (myself included) on lemmy, I think making this mandatory really limits the growth of your social media platform.
I think you could achieve what you’re looking for right now by self-hosting a private lemmy instance with signups closed, and this wouldn’t close you out of existing federating platforms.
That’s because you’ve chosen an instance that is more heavily curated. You can check which instances yours has defederated from at sh.itjust.works/instances
But if you look at the same page on mander.xyz/instances my admins are only defederates from threads.net and burggit.moe, so I already experience the fediverse as you describe.
I just feel like the whole problem the fediverse is trying to solve is admins slowly selling out and then having to move somewhere else. Having one website still has that problem of switching costs if you want to go somewhere else, you lose access to everything in that sphere of content. If the sh.itjust.works admins go crazy and start moderating in a way you don’t like, you can go sign up on another instance and not lose any of the communities or people you used on your former instance.
But then it’s centralized on one website and the person who owns that domain has control over the whole
To be fair to Odyssey, I beat basically every member of the secret cabal through assassination. I specced heavy into crits and there’s effectively no baddie you can’t kill by sneakily killing their friends one by one and then walking up and stabbing them in the neck.
Honestly, I don’t think I found myself using the bow very much at all and had a lot of fun in the more brawl-y areas doing melee and focusing on perfect dodges.
And I don’t think I can remember a time the game crashed on me…
idk they just look like hands to me
