The woke, far-left, Drew DeVault-aligned, anti-Stallman faction of the FOSS movement clearly has no idea what they are talking about.

Imagine being so far to the left that you think that Richard Stallman, someone who has openly supported free healthcare, taxing the rich, expanding the welfare state, and even a universal basic income, is somehow a far-right libertarian who supports bombing children (which he wouldn't if he was a libertarian btw).

These people are so far gone, that they think that because Richard Stallman keeps the FOSS movement politically neutral outside of challenging our current copyright laws, then that makes him "far-right".

The only reason why FOSS allows people to exploit others (outside of making it proprietary in the case of copyleft software) including committing war-crimes is that most other things created for practical use allow you to do that too. But when it comes to software, suddenly people feel the need to create contracts dictating what you can or can't do with said software. That's why we have EULAs when it comes to proprietary software, and free software does the opposite by giving us freedom 0.

Finally, you can never prevent the government, including the military from using your code. The government does what it wants and will break any license and get away with it. If the DPRK can violate the GPL and create a proprietary fork of Ubuntu, then the US military (or any other military for that matter) can use your code to bomb children.

>computers are basically microfascism because eugenicists helped invent them

Good. Log off forever. I do not want to see anymore of this type of bullshit.

>I would say packaging a CMS with crypto payments specifically for game devs to sell their games seems like an opportunity these days.

I was thinking the exact same thing, but I have zero experience with crypto development. Is there a way to have a sandboxed crypto network for testing purposes or do people test this stuff with wallets on the actual network?

Supposedly, itch.io is looking for alternate payment processors.

For the love of God, just use crypto. You guys used to accept Bitcoin. Who the fuck cares if you get backlash from the anti-crypto crowd? They'll get over it. Some of them even use it when e-begging via the MutualAid hashtag on here.

There are a lot of rural areas that aren't safe either due to containing infrastructure that are essential for this countries economy or military.

@lina I bet most of the users just treat it as an RSS feed. I bet all the e-celebs who use it are being paid to do so because I don't know of a single person who uses Minds legitimately. The only person I know of who actually preferred Minds over Gab was Dave Cullen from Computing Forever and I haven't heard of him since the scamdemic.

@lina Their one saving grace is that they generally keep to themselves. They probably aren't even aware that they are part of a larger network. The only Minds user I know of that actually engages with us is that Swiss Libertarian person who worships jews and thinks that Hitler was a gay commie.

Though I think the worst part about Minds federating is that it broke the search functionality on here even more. I can't search for anything anymore without the results being nothing but their longposts containing their QAnon, doomsday prepper, schizo bullshit.

>I think the only solution is to say it is completely on its own. A totally separate timeline with its own lore and its own mechanics as far as stuff like the goddesses and the triforce.

Yeah they could just say that it's a timeline created from the time travel shenanigans from Skyward Sword (they don't even need to explain it; it's a better explanation than what we have now) or it could be a completely alternate universe that is similar to the regular Hyrule but with some major differences (kind of like Lorule or Termina but still keeping the name "Hyrule").

>I think Nintendo had so many huge and awesome opportunities to connect botw/totk to the rest of the timeline but instead they decided to just grab random stuff from everywhere and shove it in to one game without thinking about it.

I've said it before that if they wanted to make an open world Zelda, they could've made it take place after Zelda II because the Hyrule in Zelda II is huge and the series never continued chronologically after that game. I always wanted to see what happened after Zelda II because Hyrule was in declined and it's future seemed uncertain, but I guess they didn't want to do that because they couldn't include some of the races that were featured in OOT and became Zelda staples like the Sea Zoras and the Gorons.

The final boss now drops bombs. I felt like it was kind of necessary as the boss is piss easy if you have all your stats maxed. I also increased it's HP slightly.

Only someone like me would be crazy enough to drive across state lines just to visit a library and work on projects.
