Right. That’s what I thought. Not sure what GP is talking about, then.

Is bluesky not federated?

Monument Valley

He also has no stake in the company. I’d hardly call that “behind” it.

Jack Dorsey is no longer part of the project.

I’m pretty sure he’s losing money on a lot of his videos.

“Gatekeeping”??? The man is dead. That’s not gatekeeping. People don’t need more “content”, and certainly aren’t entitled to it over his family’s wishes. There’s gotta be a moral floor somewhere.

It’s Captain America saying “I understood that reference”

Son of a bitch, you got me

I don’t need to be “spoonfed” anything, and it’s a little weird for you to assume so. I interact with all of that media, watch film & anime, read books, watch documentaries, etc. on other platforms. I share my music and artwork, I write video games as well. This isn’t about what I am up to.

Lemmy is a discussion site. I just think it’d be cool if we discussed more than what we currently discuss here. I think other prospective users might want to discuss other things than the current fare, and yeah - when it’s not here, when wanting to discuss it is dismissed essentially as entitlement & wanting to be “spoonfed”, they’ll do it elsewhere: reddit.

Well, I figure “growth” in this case means increased diversity in communities and users. Maybe it’s a double-edged sword, maybe the quality decay is avoidable - maybe not, idk.

I just think it’d be cool to see things other than linux, lefty, & star trek memes on here sometimes.

Jack isn’t involved anymore iirc. He got bullied off the platform & now just does his thing on whatever Nostr is

You are being very obviously obtuse, and it’s really funny.

They would start something for the same reason Russia started something in Ukraine.

The goal is that another 50 years go by and they don’t start shit.

The counterpoint given is artistic expression. If a designer wants the game to feel like an interactive film, then they’re going to use the tropes found in films.

If chromatic abberation enhances the mood or feel or themes of a title, I think it’s fine to use as long as there’s an optional toggle to remove it for folks that don’t like it.

Natural with respect to a film camera. Come on.

I take it you haven’t attended a US government course, then? Y’know, “separation of church and state” and all that?

Gonna be real, this sounds like you just don’t know much about networked game programming. As if in the 20 years of the entire industry trying to solve the cat-and-mouse of cheat developer versus game integrity, no one thought of “uuh, lets jusy not tell the client where they are until they r on screen” and realized it was unfeasible.

Sony makes a lot more things than video games. Ever see the prices on one of their cameras?
