With a respectable government, EOs are toothless when the next administration can just reverse it, as seen on 1/20/24. When elections are being done away with, though, they can be quite impactful.

Hilarious that this happens the week of the 5090 release, too. Wonder if it’ll affect things there.

I don’t, but conflating it with sex shaming isn’t cool.

Honestly, I don’t even think it’d get through to them. So many people have zero capability to feel shame and would just be excited to be “famous”.

Shaming scumbags for harassing people is always OK.

“Fight”. Far be it that we don’t turn everything into a zero-sum “war” 🙄. Can the SD community please not carry over the same console war bullshit just because it’s kinda-sorta similar to the switch? That shit is so lame.

To note, at one point he said it’d be funny to come back at the age of 90 and add an update. He’s not saying SD will be his only focus until then, he’s saying he will go back to it over time, presumably with different projects interspersed throughout.

Maybe they should, but it’s not going to be a black and white issue for most admins. There’s a reason instances like blahaj and yiffit exist. A space like that for women would be the most realistic way to get the protections for female users in the fediverse that you’re saying should exist.

I can’t help but figure it’d be cheaper to custom build a device instead of stripping down a Steam Deck. I suppose it was probably gotten used, but still.

Somehow had no idea about the director. Shame. I was considering buying the game on GOG, and from the sounds of it, it’s actually pretty good despite his involvement. Ah well.

I still don’t read it that way, but assuming it is, that is still unreasonable. There are simply too many differing viewpoints, by design. The best option for this sort of thing is to start a female focused instance. It won’t be able to affect the wider fediverse directly, but it would be able provide the space that is seemingly absent atm.

The admins of what? There is no singular “admins” of the Fediverse. That’s kind of the whole point.

Because the owner of the overarching app will make more money and have more control. Don’t you want that for them? /s

Yup. The dangerous message was also sent for the previous 4 years that they’ve been martyred and celebrated by the same person y’all backed. Idiots.

It was there the whole time.

What did I say to suggest it had anything to do with politics?

Not exactly “interesting” - he’s just deeply narcissistic. Here’s a handy guide:

"That didn’t happen.

And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.

(Current story sits here)

And if it was, that’s not a big deal.

And if it is, that’s not my fault.

And if it was, I didn’t mean it.

And if I did, you deserved it."

What an incredibly inappropriate comparison.

I suspect neither company wants to piss him off, but holy shit, that would be *chefskiss*
