The mission can be seen in full here, though obviously you should consider carefully before clicking.

Or what? I might see pixels from a video game.

Except for the mission name and general concept of “roof, gun, tent, crowd” its quite the shit recreation honestly.

I do understand, i (apparently most people on here) just think that you are very weird for thinking of them as equal.

I don’t think there’s a moral difference between depicting “victimless” CSAM and CSAM containing a real person. I think they’re both, morally, equally awful.

You called them “morally equally awful”, so yes, that is what you said.

If you seriously think that there is no moral difference between someone being sexually abused and them not being sexually abused then maybe you should be in prison for all our safety.

Its good training for arguing with real life people at least. Because coming up with a good comeback quickly is hard when you have never formulated your thoughts about a subject properly. I think often people misunderstand things at first and then when someone points out their mistake, they realize that they were wrong, but dont want to admit it, so they just double down. I have been that person before too tho…

Nobody was talking about the “legality”. We are talking about morals. And morally there is major difference.

Which they then talk about and point out that victims are absolutely present in this case…

If this is still too hard to understand i will simplify the sentence. They are saying:

“The important thing to talk about is, whether there is a victim or not.”

That is a lot of text for someone that couldn’t even be bothered to read a comment properly.

Non-consensual porn victimises the person being depicted

This is still true if the porn in question is machine-generated

Their entire plan is giving away AAA games for free to lure people in and then make all that money back later by raising prices or subscription models. Its been quite obvious but people just use their shitty store anyways.

Its a great genre so it could have been cool if they did a good job.

10 reviews means like 500-1000 sales. The vast majority of people dont leave reviews. Not much, especially for low priced games, but also not nothing. As long as you enjoyed the game making process and didnt invest anything except for time its not really an issue.

From what i have heard this games released in a phenominally good state and there isnt much reason to wait. But might make sense to wait for a sale.

All their big multiplayer games have lootboxes and stuff like that.

Yeah thats about what i expected.

That is very interesting 🤔
Thanks!

I was considering buying Risk of Rain 2 on sale yesterday for 9€ but buying all the DLCs costs 45€.

Even at 1000$ it will most likely outperform any 1000$ prebuilt you can buy. If they market it like this it can absolutely work at that price point.

Thats the dumbest shit ive ever heard. Every server that isnt yours is compromised. The general assumption in computer security is always that anything outside of your physical possession is compromised, especially when your opponent is the best equipped government on the planet.

signal only knows a phone number in association with an account creation date and the last sent message date. everything else is encrypted.

Thats not really possible. If thats all they give out, then that just means that is all that they decide to save. They have access to the servers that everyones messages pass through. They could log the IP and date for every single message sent if they wanted to, but just decide not to do it. This model fails however as soon as they are forced to save more than that.

Do you have a source for that? How would the server know who to deliver data to without being aware of the group member list?

But signal knows it so they will hand it over to the police if requested…

only add people to your group chats that you have good reason to trust

Yeah people need to really set trust hierarchies for this kinda political organizing. Sort of a “Principle of least privilege” but for people.

Only post personal or identifying information in chats where everyone already knows every other person directly. Public or effectively public(with more than like 10 people) chats should never ever have any identifying information in them.

Dont use a SIM card. Which also means dont use Signal unless you have a number than cant be linked to you.

They will absolutely plant long term rats for this shit so if you havent known someone for years, then think twice about telling them things they dont need to know.

If people are actually serious about organizing then tell them to use Briar. There is nothing else that comes close to it. You shouldnt use your primary phone for shit like this anyways so it doesnt matter if they are apple users, they should get a 100$ android just for this.

Yes. All my fedi services are still happy tho :)

I havent used this specific app but ones like it, but this should do what you want.

https://f-droid.org/packages/dev.pranav.applock

It also had a steam launch a while ago :)

Its more of a physics simulation toy where you can build stuff with all the elements of the periodic table and make nukes and electrical circuits and stuff

The title specifies “with raytracing” so even if it only performs this badly with ray tracing enabled, then its technically correct.

No. The most played games on steam are multiplayer games that use some sort of anti cheat. Those anti cheats often break linux compatibility when the game or anticheat itself gets updated. So going by number of games you are mostly right, but going by player counts there are often massive setbacks that either dont get fixed at all or only very slowly. Apex Legends and The Finals are prime examples of this flip flopping between working and broken.

“investigators” is plural tho so that is indeed wrong

Ah nono, TS is also server based, i just meant in terms of physics its always going to have the lowest latency if the data doesnt need to take a detour through a server.

The best is always peer to peer but that isnt great for large calls.

The audio is not actually good in discord btw. It has insane input lag and compression. Teamspeak is still king in terms of audio.

Damn those trees are low poly. I know you said its a low end laptop but still.

Am I misreading this or are their arguments all complete nonsense?

Its apple … what did you expect? They have always been like this.

And it will be allowed for sure because ya know … Trump …

Such a tragedy what bungie has become. The game would have so much potential in the right hands.

The Clovis monologue in the Destiny 2 Deep Stone Crypt. Its not really an intro to a fight and more like the mastermind behind the situation introducing itself halfway through the raid. So doesnt quite fit this post but i loved it so much so im sharing it anyways.

There isnt actually a way to make functional anticheat as long as its playable on your own device. Its pointless to try and a waste of money. The only way is banning offenders and premium/custom matchmaking.

Deep Rock is peer to peer which is cool because it means you can ban annoying people yourself :) But yeah, no LAN support sadly.

What do they mean by “reproducible builds” then? https://f-droid.org/en/2025/05/21/making-reproducible-builds-visible.html

On f-droid.org, the app’s metadata can include a Binaries: URL where the original developer can post their own signed releases. The build process downloads the signed release from there in order to compare it to the version that was just built on our buildserver.

Sounds a lot like reproducible builds to me…

You can also see this in practice in their regular blog posts like recently:

https://f-droid.org/en/2025/08/21/twif.html

But we also host Element X and its fork SchildiChat Next which are not yet updated as these hit reproducibility issues that hamper determinism.
