Why would anyone even need to use Funkwhale? Just have audio files on your local computer.

@pup self-identified anti fascists don't behave like cops challenge (impossible)

@theorytoe @PurpCat @xianc78 @gabriel It's also funny from the open sores perspective. Small open sores projects don't have these problems. It's always these big projects infiltrated/created by attention addicts that are also addicted to politics.

@pup@yeen.town I do want to add that this is one person trying to push this, it will most likely not be merged into upstream.

There is currently no reason to avoid using Funkwhale.

Even this got merged, you can still use Funkwhale, but people would just have to maintain an anti-censorship fork.

PSA: Uninstall Funkwhale NOW.

Funkwhale has gone off the deep end and is now trying to add a
hardcoded music blocklist which will apply to songs in your personal music library - not just instances that host far-right podcasts, or the like. Because nothing is more anti-fascist than... not allowing people to listen to their own music on their own computers??? (What in the performative dictatorial nonsense?!)

This is an incredibly dangerous idea - not only is it a centralised blocklist that
applies to your personal media collection and cannot be opted out of, it's also AUTO-GENERATED FROM FUCKING WIKIDATA(!) (The dev insists that outsourcing to Wikidata makes it decentralised and immune to problems, btw...)

Absolutely obligatory: https://archive.org/details/msdos_Ys_II_Special_1997 - complete with a premade DOSBox config, presumably for playback on IA, but it takes only minimal effort to rearrange things for my DOSBox Staging setup.

Gentlemen, we have MAGIC! ...and absolutely jack-all to cast with it.

Thanks, game.

Anyway, I've just found the big grinding spot for the next few sessions, so I'm gonna cut this here and get right to that on the next go-around.

So, Dark Fact is dead, we get carried off the top of Darm Tower to the land of Ys... and we wake up in a field, flat broke and bereft of all our equipment - probably got looted by monsters while we were out cold, but hey...

...we're greeted by this pretty face.

"I'll probably hit Ys Book II by nightfall."

Well, I hit Dark Fact by nightfall, but I'm apparently destined to fail horribly at dodging diagonally-moving projectiles while trying to hit a dude that bounces around the screen like a DVD screensaver, so I spent the night grinding levels before heading to bed... and picked it right up where I left off after I had breakfast.

Boring-ass grind session over - I'm gonna go kill this guy now.
