here’s a good video essay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxOKEsBx4NU Ross’s Game Dungeon: Deus Ex

and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgJazjz9ZsA Deus Ex: Human Revolution is FINE, And Here’s Why

I feel the same way about the prequels, but I think the original game is the best game ever made.

I would suggest against GMDX for a first time playthrough, it changes A LOT. From the aesthetics, to the gameplay, to the sounds, the mood, the feel of the game, and the viable approaches in each level, there’s so much that’s changed it just isn’t the same game anymore.

You’re much better off with the Vanilla Fixer tool, Transcended, or Zero Rando (I’m the dev). You could also use Revision and toggle every setting to vanilla, but make sure you also disable the HDTP models, and disable Shifter and Biomod too, and definitely set the maps to vanilla.

I use Boost and it seems to be able to do at least most of the moderation actions needed, and it supports notifications. I think Summit, Connect, Sync, and Jerboa are also good but I haven’t used them too much.

In the user settings there’s an option to export everything to a file, then you just import that file into your other account

That would make community names a bit longer so they’d be more annoying to type and share?

you make a good point about push vs pull, although things are only pushed if someone is subscribed (opt-ed in)

I think the proposal is for licenses to become part of the ActivityPub protocol, so all applications would retain the original license of the content, license would be a first class citizen

although without licenses this is functionally the same as email, I wonder how the laws work for that, for example I don’t think you can just plagiarize something that someone wrote, quoted, or copy-pasted to you in an email if it’s actually copyrighted content like from a book (aka content that had a license)

cloning data in that way isn’t legally different than what The Wayback Machine does for other websites, it doesn’t mean a company can just ignore the legal license of the content just because they can get a copy of it

if the only concern was getting a copy of the data, then Reddit wouldn’t be able to sell access to the data for $75mil or whatever, the AI company would just scrape the pages or pay the API fees directly, and then they could even store the data and serve it to other people as a mirror and make some money off of the content with ads too!

same thing with licenses on Git repos, you can’t just clone it and do whatever you want with it, there are laws

And then a user copy-pastes all the content onto pastebin or something lol

I guess the more important part might be only allowing posts/comments/votes from actually approved users, this should be good enough for that purpose

Anything more than that just use a local-only private community

good idea, I think some big instances would ideally want all communities to always be visible, so people can find what they’re looking for even if it isn’t popular

this colorful icon is the fedilink, the original URL of the post/comment

Drop the permaurl/fedilink into your own instance’s search box. Note that you have to be logged in when searching for remote content otherwise it’ll silently find nothing, probably to avoid abuse of server resources.

Related minor issue https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2160

And pull request with the fix https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2344 (give a thumbs up or comment if you want to see this fix accepted)

Basically if the colorful fedilink icon is not there then you can just copy the URL from your address bar cause you’re already on the local post. Posts are local to the instance of the poster, not the instance of the community.

Here’s a couple of feature requests filed for improving the core issue: (give them thumbs ups)

You’re framing it as if this is a bad thing that Lemmy can only see some of the agupe content, but wait until you see how much content non federated platforms can see from each other! I really don’t see how some content is worse than none, if you really want all of it then make an account over there like every other social network in the past requires you to browse on their site/app. It’ll probably improve over time but it really sounds like you’re upset that it already sometimes works instead of not at all.

Defederation messes with this though, we need more ways to control the content without relying on defederation

It makes me feel like I should be making the post to multiple communities, but then I feel like I’m spamming

edit: I just responded to this comment but now I noticed this is 3 years old lol how did this post show up on Hot? integer underflow?

seems to be happening on programming.dev but not lemmy.ml maybe before programming.dev only has it at 1 score instead of 12?
