Excited for the Cassette Beasts update next week? I’ve been checking to see if it’d go on sale for a few weeks/months now but I’m guessing it isn’t likely to with a major update on the way. Not sure if I should pick it up or wait for the next sale, how are you finding it? Been wanting to play a creature collector recently after watching so much Persona 3 but haven’t wanted to go back to my digimon/persona playthroughs
Any reason MATE over Xcfe? Just curious if the performance is close or MATE is better at things, not trying to question your decisions. I have a >9 year old PC at this point and installed Cinnamon on it but was finding it a bit laggy. I tried out the other editions but am sticking with LMDE for now, but sort of feel like I don’t really need nice animations, I just need more CPU for faster compile times, haha
That’s very surprising to me as it’s a two year old game at this point. Looking it up, I guess there were three years between 1 and 2. Wonder if they’re working on a 3 at this point
It’s one of my big projects, in progress in this PR. I’m really happy with where I got it to recently. I’m not sure if it’ll make it into 1.6.0, but it’s what I’m currently working on.
I can think of Forspoken and Deathloop
I recently watched DansGaming play through this last Halloween. Was interesting to finally see what all the hype was about as everyone had asked for it every year. As a fan of point-and-click games, it was interesting to see something in FMV and what they did with scenes to blend the real and video game aspects. Story-wise it felt a lot more coherent and suspenseful compared to Harvester, but didn’t quite blow me away either. That might be too harsh, the music and set work obviously was done well, perhaps after nearly 30 years of other video game media the storyline just felt a little, expected.
In the end it’s mostly an agreement on how moderation actions should and are allowed to propagate for activity pub groups, which you can learn more about here https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/1b12/fep-1b12.md#group-moderation
The tl;dr is there’s a set way of saying these specific users are allowed to send actions such as delete on these specific posts, and software that implements groups (communities, to lemmy) ideally implement it in the same way. Of course, someone could always make a software that denies all remote moderation actions for instance, so it’s always up to those implementing the AP spec.
Lemmy has a large userbase, so generally probably gets to decide a lot of these things, such as how moderators are listed when getting information on communities, and other software will have to choose to follow along to be able to work with the large userbase or raise concerns/give feedback if needed
Visa systems were down one day for me when I needed gas, and I decided then to always have at least two different types just in case (it also helps with other issues as I tend of get chip malfunction errors and stuff)
That note was very interesting to me, because there’s also Pulsar which is what I have been trying out, which also relates to Atom. I’m not sure if “fork” is the right word as I don’t know the complete history, but installing packages uses atom packages / github sources so it’s fairly similar. I wonder what led to this other one
The anti-unionization stuff makes me sad. They’re really the only ones around here who carry vegetarian/vegan options. If I go to the chain store next door the prices are quite a bit more expensive, and all they have is a small corner of the refrigerated section of vegetarian options of questionable expiration.
They could, yes. Afaik no extra work was needed on lemmy’s side once Mbin changed to report moderators in the same manner (aside from some kind of activity which triggered a refresh of the data)
However, looking at peertube, it looks like they already are using the attributedTo field for the group with a person, which is different from the FEP. For the channel you link in the OP specifically:
"attributedTo": [
{
"type": "Person",
"id": "https://tilvids.com/accounts/thelinuxexperiment"
}
]
It’s possible PeerTube could change to make a /moderators endpoint and respond with that as the FEP suggests, or Lemmy and other software to change to accept this array of actor types instead. I’m not sure who decides these things or if there is an evangelist for FEPs, It’s possible this was already discussed on the peertube github as well, I didn’t look through all the past issues as there are quite a lot
What gets to me is the “Thanks in advance”. I might be alone in this, I asked a co-worker and she said it just seemed like normal dialogue, but I interpret that as “You don’t have a say in the matter, you will do this, your consent is not needed”. Granted, the people who say this to me are my boss or director, so they’re right, I don’t have a choice. But if I wanted to be reminded of reality, I wouldn’t play so many video games.
An ActivityPub group actor defining its moderators is a specific implementation of the AP protocol. You can find the spec details lemmy uses here. An Mbin contributor recently implemented this to line up with Lemmy, but whether other fediverse software do or will is up to them, as it’s more of a community proposal than an official implementation of the spec. So when you see no moderators from other software, they likely just do not implement the linked FEP
I took screenshots of this convo as well 😆 Picked this game up when it went on sale for the multiplayer update, been having a fun time. Not too far into it though, been taking my time catching everything and ranking everything up first.
