On the face of it, I agree. But 12 jurors who heard the whole story, probably for days or weeks, disagree with that.

This is the stuff that Trumps theatrics is intended to distract from.

Something tells me that Meta’s smart glasses won’t have a billboard, signage and poster blocking feature…

That does help very much, thank you!

I’ve committed a fix.

They did this last time they were in power too, 10 years ago. Exploration companies came and searched everywhere for years but didn’t find anything. An oil rig circled the whole country, drilling exploratory wells.

They can’t seriously think this time will be different. This is just asshole-signaling.

Wow copyparty is insane!

Civ 3 was the first one I played so it sticks in my mind the most, that’s all. Any of the Civs would be fine.

I do feel like Civ 3 was a big step up in visual effects, though.

I’ve been lurking in threads like this for 2+ years, and coding accordingly.

To get the obvious out of the way: Pacman, Doom 2, Starcraft, Simcity 2000, Civ 3. All genre-defining milestones.

Total Annihilation. They’re still making sequels today (Supreme Commander, Beyond all Reason).

Warzone 2100 was the first 3D rotatable zoomable RTS which was pretty mind blowing at the time.

Leaving the 3 biggest news comms has been one of the best things I’ve done recently.

Googles knows a LOT more about you than what you watch on YouTube.

That’s it, yep.

With so many votes being cast and such a huge pile of old votes from the past, recalculating the total each time would be a lot of overhead. Also we don’t need total accuracy anyway.

It’s great to see that happening more and more 👍

piefed.social now has a Zulip server too although the Matrix rooms are still open. Seems like the tide is going out on Matrix though.

Also Terrorgram.

If that’s been their goal for decades then there would be something written down to that effect. Policy statements, press releases, meeting minutes… Got anything?

Some admins really love watching who votes for what and banning people based on that.

You can disagree with that if you like but if it means they get pissed enough to defederate your whole instance, you lose.

If your instance is just you and a handful of others, no one will notice or care. But once you have 1000 users the amount of anonymous votes will be noticed and there will be consequences. Maybe not defederation but everyone banned for upvoting bigoted content or vote manipulation will migrate to your instance and you’ll be hosting the biggest shitbirds around.

I don’t see a solution to this. As long as admins snoop on people’s votes that will be the dynamic and PieFed puts itself at a disadvantage by doing anything different.

Cheers :)
