Even greedy Amazon is providing games that don’t require a constant subscription to play even after you cancel Prime.

I laughed when he did it twice as if just to emphasize the first one wasn’t a mistake.

Work in progress swastika.

Twitter probably benefits from people being redirected to their site from repostings with how it has become the go to source for news like sports, so it might. Won’t hurt Elon financially but less people being exposed to the content there that Elon wants to push that don’t actively use Twitter is a good thing even if it is only a few.

Even small moves is a good thing with how over the years sports and game submissions have become increasingly more Twitter submissions.

Most effective would probably be spread of memes of Musk and Nazism being spread making the site so strongly associated with Nazi imagery that companies become afraid of their brand being associated with Nazi support. Brands being tarnished due to strong association is the only type of stuff companies tend to respond to.

Excellent. It’s nice to see active moves to reduce direct visits to Twitter that are often the result of submissions providing links there.

I like that pipepipe provides an option to use a Google account fall back for videos that are age verified, since those don’t work anymore without an account.

And they got a content filter update too so can block channels and keywords.

I was going to recommend android apps until I saw iOS. I don’t know anyones that let you keep a local subscription like newpipe does without needing to sideload. So if there are I’d be interested.

I think Möbius Sync might work to get syncthing working for iOS.

One story based game at a time to focus on that alongside a coop or pvp game like The Finals.

Seems to be other games too

On another note being subbed to similar communities across fediverse kind of makes articles that popped up a day ago and sometimes longer show up again give me feelings of deja vu.

Individual user driven content where the focus in more on individual accounts I don’t really like. Which is why stuff like Twitter, tiktok, shorts, Instagram hasn’t strongly hooked me like forum based social media.

I prefer social media where it’s more users all fading into the background with the attention given to the theme of discussion or showcasing as opposed to more influencer based social media.

Yeah it’s the main reason I plan to play Half Life 1. I feel like I’ll be able to appreciate Black Mesa more if I go in with the background of Half Life 1 to see all the graphical improvements and work they put in to recreate levels.

I never played it but I haven’t played half life 1 yet either which I plan to do as my next game. I’ve only half life 2.

It feels likes been given away like 5 times.

People don’t have to be forced to use GOG so there’s people that actually like them, and offering DRM free games with offline installers is pretty pro consumer.

GOG has been closer to offering the more mainstream indies and big studio titles that interest me. I guess itch library doesn’t really appeal as often to my tastes.

I wonder what the most popular controller to use on PC is in Japan. Xbox is plug and play, but Xbox controllers aren’t popular. So would Nintendo or Sony controllers be the most popular with improvements in steam input?

You are just ignoring that the installers can be downloaded and saved. Or even just the game directory can continue to work.

For people who value that it is a difference. Even how the game works is different with how some don’t work offline or lose ability to function offline once verification expires compared to non DRM counterparts.

You are an idiot acting as if DRM and DRM free is the same as though some license terms is the only determining factor.

That GOG downloaded installers can’t be forcibly deactivated or taken away? Your phrasing is confusing so I don’t think people are able to tell whether you think GOG installers are a good or bad thing, or acting like it is useless and provides no further benefit than DRM alternatives.
