if you hate CSS, you can blame this guy, the Norwegian who first proposed it, Håkon Wium Lie (HAW-cun WEE-um LEE-uh). i met him once, at a dinner party.

@Yamilken @Terry How about the entire middle eastern subcontinent? Nothing good ever comes out of there.

@marc@based.directory @baguette My PeerTube instance here was removed from "official" public lists as well (kind of funny it being basically the biggest and most viewed PeerTube channel). Framasoft should be considered 100% compromised; they even signed the anti-RMS petition. I can't speak for the PeerTube developers if they reflect the opinions of their money.

None of this particularly matters though. Does anyone really want to come to the "Fediverse" and see the same leftist schitzoids they left on Twitter?

Johnathan Blow's lectures on computer games design are an eye-opener for people who think games are just programming exercises with graphics and sounds.

Films like V for Vendetta and 1984 are right in that authoritarian rule through cohersion and force is a failed and retarded proposition, it is what our current government does, and you see how well that's working.

Only rule through popular support will function, be it a philosopher king, or some Uber popular political party, that is the only way forward. Lies, cohersion and trickery on a grand scale, inflicting upon the populace in any level of regularity is how we become no different than the rats we fight against now.

@ChristiJunior@neckbeard.xyz @natsock @JEJ The DS Zeldas get a lot of unjustified hate but I feel like the could've been a lot better. I never played Metroid Prime Hunters, but I heard that the control scheme was a huge problem and that it plays more like Doom or Quake than Metroid. But like SM64DS it was meant to show off the DS's 3D capabilities. An FPS just seemed logical.

Just looking at Nintendo's flagship titles on the DS, you see a pattern:
* Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks are considered the weakest mainline Zelda games
* Metroid Prime Hunters is considered the worst Metroid game (maybe besides Other M but I see more people hating on that one's story)
* Star Fox Command is considered the worst Star Fox game and put the series on hiatus for almost a decade

Besides Mario and Pokemon these are Nintendo's most well known franchises and they seem to hit their low points on the DS. I can't think of any other system with this many low-points on flagship franchises.

@natsock @JEJ 2D games aged fine, but most of the 3D games have aged horribly. They're even worse than 3D PS1 games that required the D-pad IMO, but I have never owned a 3DS so I don't know how they improve with the circle pad. Worst offenders go to the games that (almost) entirely use the touchscreen.

@JEJ It is filled with watered-down console ports and movie/TV licensed trash, but there are some hidden gems.

I might go out and say it has aged better than the original DS library since the games weren't relying on gimmicks.

@ChristiJunior@neckbeard.xyz @estrogenius @moth @mrsaturday @TheQuQu I think it's natural for parents to want at least one of their children to have children of their own, but I think most of them don't care if one of their children happens to be gay or whatever.
