And maybe if enough people complain NVIDIA will start behaving less like a bag of dicks?

Wishful thinking, I know, but one can hope.

World of Tanks. Came for the fun FPS/TPS hybrid gameplay, left for Wargaming’s unforgivably greedy and short-sighted monetization practices. But not before siphoning away a lot more of my time than they deserved before I caught on.

Catbox claims to keep files forever. I find this claim dubious, what’s the catch?

This seems to be a no strings attached good deal on xQc’s side given the lack of exclusivity clause. Worst case scenario is a particularly bad scandal hitting the platform could tarnish xQc’s reputation such as it is but that’s a risk for literally any platform. However…

As a start-up, Kick is prepared to operate at a loss

Aaand the platform is doomed. Focusing on growth over viability is whats makes you a prime enshitification target.

So what you’re saying is, mass-edit all your comments to contain your full name right before requesting deletion.

I have a few loose ends to tie up before walking away from the explosion as outlined in this comment from a similar thread but at this point, nothing short of the entire chain of decisions that started the API debacle being reversed and anyone involved in the mess, spez included, stepping down and being replaced by competent people would even begin to make me reconsider leaving. Of course, I might as well wish for a meteorite made of solid gold to land into my yard.

Besides, this doesn’t fix the underlying issue that led us here in the first place, and the Fediverse might just be the answer to that one.

Start from Doom. Well, not quite the original release, but rather Doom Legacy. From this base, create a 3D Sonic platformer styled after the Genesis era games. That’s Sonic Robo Blast 2 (because yes, it’s a sequel from a previous fangame named Sonic Robo Blast from all the way back in 1997).

We’re not done yet. Mod it further… into an online kart game. That inherits the same modding abilities Doom Legacy has. You’ve got Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart, sometimes nicknamed MUGEN Kart to the dismay of its developers due to the sheer amount of addons for increasingly weird characters its forum hosts. If you’re interested, said forum, hosting both the addons for SRB2, SRB2 Kart and the SRB2 Kart releases themselves can be found here (for some reason the main website is down as I’m writing this. Oops.)

For SRB2 Kart in particular, the thread to get your hands on it is here and you can find its repository here.

The game is wacky, very fun, runs on a stale potato and it’s easy to set up a server to subject an unsuspecting community to your specific choice of insane mods among the hundreds if not thousands available.

Meanwhile over on kbin, the points really do, in fact, not matter since comment ordering is dictated by the boost count.
