@beardalaxy Honestly, I think it's best if Nintendo just retcons BoTW and ToTK into their own bizzaro world timeline where Hyrule has a completely different history because I don't know how they can connect those games with the rest of the series. Even the idea that the Zonai backstory is actually a re-founding of Hyrule sounds really dumb because if it is, then they would outright state it in game.

okay realtalk I want to know if Chris Sawyer has any "back in the day" memories of writing a PC-98 game now

@ube @Forestofenchantment They could at least use GitHub Pages to make an actual website.

I know things are totally messed up right now, but I'm glad the fedi exists and you cool people are out there.
I'm grateful for you, the person reading this right now, probably in a voice I can't think of.

@phnt @anemone @feld @cjd @sun I'm not an expert on this, but can someone create a VPN that works via steganography? Because from what I've heard, in countries that ban Tor, Tor bridges are still usable because they hide your Tor traffic in VoIP packets which makes it extremely hard to determine if you are using Tor in the first place. I wonder if the same can be done with VPNs.

In the light of NSFW artists being pushed away from platforms, here's a starterpack for making your own website. It uses the same structure as my own.

- Edit pages via markdown
- Upload art to set folders and fill out info
- Customize the HTML/CSS if you want

My ideal package manager design for a programming language:

Packages are downloaded over a P2P system, like BitTorrent or IPFS
The package manager runs as a daemon and seeds all downloaded packages
There is also a centralized site, which is a directory that maps packages to hashes/torrents; also has documentation and search
The site has an open API that other sites can replicate
Project files reference packages by both name/version and hash; the hashes remain valid even if the site goes down
The site has human moderation and handles detecting malware, spam, etc. and removing it
Package names always have a username prefix
The site's staff can choose to bless a package as the preferred implementation of some feature, giving it a non-prefixed name

@djsumdog Not giving your data to companies is still no use. You have no control over what people say about you online. Unless you are like Richard Stallman and request that your photos not be posted on Facebook, you probably have a bunch of photos of you already on it.

This is something that's bothered me for years, even before some of the most recent news events involving ID verification and the Tea App security failure.

Stop just letting people scan your ideas for silly reasons. Don't upload your ID to any mobile app. Learn why and how to protect yourself:
