Damn, what a great guy. He doesn't just make it easy to request a refund that he needs to pay from his own pocket. He actually made it opt-out. I've always used RiF on Android, never used Apollo. But Christian earned a lot of my respect in the last few weeks. Fuck Reddit and fuck how they screwed the people that helped them build the platform into what it is today.

There is so much news like this coming from France lately. What is going on over there?

Yeah, I agree. I love the idea of u/spez trying to explain to the potential investors why so many users of the investment are working together to actively disturb and destroy the platform as much as they can, while being way more effective than users of pretty much any other other popular social media platform.

My thoughts exactly. Deadalic is an awesome studio with some of the best point-n-click games, an IMO underrated niche genre and some great other unique games. However, they are not the kind of studio for a games like Gollum. Every studio (and even every person working at that studio) has it's own strengths and weaknesses. By utilizing that strengths and weaknesses correctly, you can make great games. It's a shame they got a bad rep because they didn't do that with this game.

That looks amazing! Bet it tasted great as well

the owners of Tildes don’t seem to want them around. I’ve read in multiple places that they believe mobile apps go against everything they stand for.

It might not be intentional, but you're spreading misinformation that could be prevented with a quick search.

The (sole) developerbof Tildes specificlly stated that Tildes will have an API and that they don't want to discourage apps. Their philosophy is just that the official way of visiting Tildes should be the same lightweight website as the desktop. A solution that works on every device. To me, this makes a lot of sense. It fits the philosophy of Tildes, results in less code to maintain and ensures the experience is the same on every device.

Source from the Tildes Documentation:

The site is the main mobile interface, not an app

Tildes is a website. Your phone already has an app for using it—it's your browser.

Tildes will have a full-featured API, so I definitely don't want to discourage mobile apps overall, but the primary interface for using the site on mobile should remain as the website. That means that mobile users will get access to updates at exactly the same time as desktop ones, and full f

Welcome! Also, your cat is wearing a great looking tuxedo!

You can block communities ("subreddits") if you want to. On lemmy.world you click on your username in the upper-right corner > Settings > Blocks > Block community.

And if you're also on Kbin: On Kbin there is a block button next to the subscribe button.

Linux has a very different file-structure, which is the way your files are organized on a system. It's a bit weird at first, but once you get used to it makes a lot of sense. A second drive can often be found at /mnt/DRIVENAME or /media/DRIVENAME. But they show up in the file manager in a list anyhow.

I've been using yt-dpl + MPV + qutebrowser or ytfzf for a long time, but lately I've been using Freetube a lot on my desktop (which can also use MPV as an external player). Subscriptions are saved locally and can be exported in several formats. I occasionally export them, sync them over syncthing to my phone and import it on my yt apps on my phone. On my phone I mainly use Libretube, with NewPipe as a backup.

That's exciting! Scripts like these are really awesome and are not only a great way for users to tinker with the site to their liking, they are also some sort of feedback and an idea box for you guys (I noticed you contribute to the code of Kbin). But although scripts can be awesome, it's even better when they are not "needed" because the functionality is build right into the site itself. Not to say I dislike the current vanilla experience. It's already very good!

Thank you for your contributions, you guys are awesome!

This is great! I added it to my list of Kbin userscripts :)
Thank you for creating and sharing!

I see a lot of great names on your list! Legend of Mana and Chrono Cross are still on my list of old games that I want to play! But I want to finish Chrono Trigger on the DS first :)

I discovered I really like J-RPG's and since then I've been trying out classics that I've missed when I grew up

What a great lad

Hmm, makes sense but I'm not sure if that is possible right now. You could simply not subscribe to them use the feed of subscribed communities. Or do block them, but remove the block once most posts have been transferred.

I thought you were talking about Pokemon Silver at first, but that game didn't have voice acting. What kind of game is Silver?

Good! In the end of the day we're all human and we all need to eat when we get hungry. That's just how our bodies work. You went out of your way to attend the meeting during what would normally be your lunch time, so I think it's pretty much expected to have some lunch during the meeting. And sometimes we all need to devour a meal like it's our last.

seems the original "kbin" name actually stems from unix's "sbin".

That makes a lot of sense! I really like that reference and how the logo is stylized as a forward slash

That's totally true and somehow it didn't think of it. I think that is the closest equivalent of the Windows naming scheme on storage devices.
But on the contrary: I believe on Windows the drive letters ( C:, D;, etc) ARE used for recognition (by the user) while the drive is already mounted. But you can also mount them without assigning a drive letter, making it somewhat different than how it's handled in Linux. On Linux, the (average) user usually doesn't see stuff like "/dev/sda" unless they specifically look for it. At most, they will see the name that are assigned to the drive and it's mounting point.
