It's really weird to me at this point in computer history the primary reason to upgrade a computer is that the web browser companies stop supporting your OS. OSes no longer provide new or useful features over time, app compatibility no longer matters because everything new is on the web. But to keep using the web you have to upgrade your browser, and that occasionally means you have to upgrade your OS. Without this you could probably keep using computers from the last 15 years for like, 20 years

When all you have is a Linux every problem looks like a file

Time to release them from their suffering :blobcatcomfevil:

There are so many birdsite refugees here and most of us story games and DND folks aren't used to sharing space anymore, so let's exercise a modicum of consideration by remembering that other styles of RPG _exist_ and _are valid_, even if they're not out cup of tea.

I genuinely don't understand what makes DND enjoyable. That doesn't make DND not a game, or an inferior game.

Similarly, there is a rich and vibrant history and community of story focused tabletop RPGs. We exist, and are valid.

Know your puppies!

From OG OGL architect Ryan Dancey:

"Yeah my public opinion is that Hasbro does not have the power to deauthorize a version of the OGL. If that had been a power that we wanted to reserve for Hasbro, we would have enumerated it in the license. I am on record numerous places in email and blogs and interviews saying that the license could never be revoked."

Calling spam white supremacy and racism is just so ridiculous

ok but realtalk #fediblock continuing to go around starting shit with people, especially other marginalized people, over small issues that can be resolved amicably is a fucked up and abusive thing to do. it's not "white supremacy" to say to not do violence (and exile/social exclusion is violence) on people who accidentally step on your social mores. if you actually give a shit about the anti-bigotry you espouse (lol), you need to offer a path to correct the behavior. failure to do so, or unwillingness to reverse judgements when amends are made, means you are an abuser grifting for social clout, simple as.

interviewer: give me an example of a time when you took control of a situation

me: no, YOU give ME an example

interviewer: lol okay, that was pretty impressive

me: I’m afraid we’re going to have to let you go

interviewer: *being led away by security* what is happening right now

Tomorrow in US Politics

👾 I can't blame people for misunderstanding cyberpunk when the genre in the mainstream has been completely co-opted by the very people it was originally a political statement against

I wonder what the result will be when this poll ends
