I had a guy whose pitch was “Ok, you’re the president.”

That was the game idea. The whole thing.

“Ok, I did the overall plot. Who’s doing the dialogue?”

I do, because I also avoid using Amazon as much as possible

It sucks

Can’t imagine why people would call freely distributing a means of production some commie thing

That’s just good patriotism, ensuring everyone, no matter their means, has access to a vital resource for modern life

But Cod 27 has a new lootbox system!

I’ve seen more memes about Arch than people talking about Arch

How dare you accuse salary.com of lying to me?!?!?

One might note they also have the highest average income

I’d say God isn’t that cruel, but

Would that actually violate the guidelines? This was around all the time of the defederation drama, so ages ago in internet time, and I recall looking at the guidelines and thinking “Well this isn’t a bad faith argument, and it’s not technically hateful unless you know where it leads.”

Maybe this is the syndicalist in me talking, but I think the problem is entirely pretending that Lemmy moderators and admins are and should be expected to work for free. It’s just too much work, too much daily upkeep, to reasonably expect to be handled by a volunteer labor force forever.

That’s obviously a whole other drama with FOSS as a whole but there’s simply a different level of labor and difficulty inherent to running a large internet community than making a program and dumping it on a download site.

I’ve seen quotes directly lifted from fascist works upvoted by hundreds on Beehaw. The problem with only-positive user feedback is that as long as it seems like a positive statement that others support people will often grant it further support without thinking about what is actually being said.

Or at least that’s what I hope was happening.

Or a refractory period.

It’s one atom thick.

Unironically, Lemmy’s got a real evident fiber deficiency based on how many of you vibe with bowel complaints.

It’s more like a mutually beneficial exchange

Hey, no need to accuse the guy of cutting tvs to get out of honoring the warranty.

Them: “That’s a myth, actually, they can totally do drugs undercover.”

Me: “Do you want some free acid the CIA made or not?”

That feeling when it is, in fact, computer ghosts.
