You’re glad your grandparents are dead, are you sure you’re not the crazy, untrustworthy one?

Never played a Ys game, but I like falcom for some of Trails games I’ve played, and Gurumin. Anyone who played these recommend one to start with?

This sounds like subtitles for a DVD commentary track, which were probably supposed to be a separate subtitle track but weren’t for some reason (or your player defaulted to them alphabetically).

The cabinet, and the heads of federal agencies who are appointed by the president (everything from the FBI to the EPA), is doing the actual running of the country. In particular Biden just signs off on whatever they tell him to, as an individual, I don’t think he has been making any serious foreign policy decisions himself.

Yes, it’s only on the Play Date, which is a $200 console aimed at kids. The gimmick is you can download a bunch of exclusive games for free, but its still a very low power console with one gimmick (the crank) which costs as much as a switch lite.

We have the man who wrote those words expanding upon them to say what he meant, and you’re still saying “actually he meant something else.”

Good to know they uphold this text by not publicly murdering and raping random civilians in their homes and proudly sharing the video.

“People online are so rude! All I did was ask a few questions, but everybody keeps calling me a faq!”

No

Good to know. I’ve been going nuts trying to make a community on and off for like a week and it just won’t go through when I press the button, I get stuck watching the spinning circle. I tried a couple different devices/browsers too. Hopefully it clears up on its own.

I just want to append that a “rampantly fascist troll farm” would be something like The Stormfront, which hosts literal neo-nazis, or possibly 4chan’s /pol/ forum, where Jewish conspiracies are blamed for all the world’s ills and… only maybe 1/2 to 2/3 of the users are saying that ironically. These are real websites with real people, and if you are used to Reddit as your main social media, I would urge you to take a look just once and get an example of what actual hate speech looks like. That is, illegal in the UK, or could be used as evidence to increase the sentence in conjunction with a guilty verdict for violent crime in the US. Trumptard/trans-skeptic is no the same as rampantly fascist.

I only ask to reserve the use of the word for two reasons. One, the real thing is out there and we shouldn’t forget it. Two, accusing someone of attempting a fascist takeover of the government which would end democracy… is a pretty good excuse to take over the government and end democracy. It’s the same sort of thing as saying someone’s words are “violent” towards you in an attempt to justify (real) violence towards them.

Is this supposed to be for admin reports only, or mod reports? I’d be nervous about community outsiders doing moderation. If its admin only then theres less wiggle room with rules and it is potentially more appeal-able. I still think the potential for crappy calls is pretty high.

Nay BUT if they’re really annoying about it, then spamming rules could apply.

I don’t think it really serves open discussion to say “this is a banned topic”. I think you could reasonably make a rule that repeatedly begging admins for action/features in general is a no-no though.

I’m also very against deferederation. Not unless we are having problems with serious illegal content on some instance, or like ACTUAL straight up neo nazis. I have no respect for people who say stuff like “exploding heads is clearly a FASCIST server” and then post a meme about Biden being bad as proof lmao.

Nay.

Pour one out for the ones who didn’t make it. o7

I’m not sure if I got it right, or someone else did, but I did notice it is now visible. Thanks!

Is anyone else having trouble posting? I’ve had a lot of times when posts/comments fail to go through (“post” button stays as a spinning circle). Sometimes I can get it after a couple times, but I’ve been stubbornly trying to reply to one comment in c/games all day with no success, despite posting a thread there and making some other posts.

Yeah. I’m not necessarily asking how to do this for myself, but if this would be in-demand as a new feature, because I think i see some problems it could solve. I don’t want to return to Reddit’s system where the front page is heavily curated by admins but i think this could be less of a culture shock for some people.

Wew, I’m glad we didn’t lose our chance at another good game out of this. I just hope they’ve retained their key staff. Sometimes when we see a disaster like this come out of EG Bioware, I think its because the name is the only thing left of the original game dev company.

How would people feel about a feature where instances have a default user block list, or, hide certain communities from the front page unless a user specifically searches them out. Similar to how EG some instances hide NSFW unless you are logged in, it prevents newbies from having their front page show them stuff that’s going to get them outraged at the whole site.

That could be a better solution than defederating some instances, like burggit, where users here are just mad about having a few weird porn communities shown to them. Ideally, communities could opt in the this flagging as well if they want to be less discoverable. Booru sites do this with default blacklist tags, for example, and it’s been a successful way of having their cake and eating it too with regard to having normies and weirdoes on the same site and avoiding controversy.

Me, personally, I wouldn’t mind if ONLY lemmygrad stayed defeated, but there’s going to be more issues like this in the future.
