@noiob Certain games don't allow cloud backups to avoid save scumming, from what I understand.

re: spambot alert, suspension recommendation 

@flussence@nulled.red @zoe Also the repo that's been linked to (cloudflare-tor), someone's having a meltdown there, too..unless they're the same person.

I don't know.

Tech bros are really friggin' problematic.

An industry that forces crunch-time slavery, is rather unstable to work for, and which for decades has been misogynist and objectified women as trophies and rewards has turned out to be a breeding ground for problematic entitled bro culture.

I really would love this to not be the case, but more and more individuals keep coming out as being toxic manipulators and abusers.

Of course, this isn't isolated to the gaming industry...

Treatment of native Americans for the last few generations 

Thank you white people, for the systemic genocide of Native Americans.

Nb4 "what genocide?" I have these to show you

Boarding homes, forced sterilization of children, forcibly taking the children away and adopting them out to "good" white christian homes, destroying all treaties, banning languages, forced drug addictions, lack of resources, rape, murder, burning all writings, forced assimilation of children.

And more.

...or at least, the Marxist-Leninists I've run into creep me out. Maybe there's one out there somewhere with a shred of self-awareness?

Also, the guy should realise that Git can handle multiple changes in one commit, yes?

Unless there's another reason for doing so.

It seems like whoever runs the repo there is throwing a hissy-fit, and has just added links to cloudflare everywhere.

I think one of the ultimate acts of kindness is to buy a batch of broken items, repair them, and then give them away for free.

the fact that as a civilization we struggle just to have public clean water supplies while nearly everyone has access to a computer you can put in your pocket is pretty fucked up

tired: your anxiety about political contexts is a personal problem. nobody feels like this but you. stop worrying about it.

wired: we spend so much time arguing with people who refuse to examine their political context, whose ability to refuse is itself a kind of political power, that it’s hardly any wonder we haven’t the energy left over to advance the good things between us, to fight the good fight for that humane future-present that we all know in our hearts.

I've mentioned about MechWarrior, but also TTRPGs and Computer RPGs are my thing, too.

a note on keeping up with abuse or harassment allegations on here 

It's hard to make evidence based judgment calls to mute/block/unfollow people when you're operating on hearsay, receipts are hard/impossible to track down due to (intentionally) useless search, the culture opposes screenshots and you're not active in any sub-communities or group chats. While it's sort of the job of mods to be aware of these things, let's be patient with the rest of people when they're not up to date with the latest goings on.
