Sorry but no. If it's asynchronous and I don't need a response in a short time, I'll email you. If I say something on Slack to a person, and don't get a response in a short timeframe (~5 minutes), I go to someone else - whether that's a coworker or a manager. And when I get told, "you'll have to ask [unresponsive]", I say, "Oh, I tried to reach out to them, they didn't respond. Can you reach out and see if they're available?"
That way, I've gotten somewhere closer to my answer, and I've put another person on the scent of the unresponsive one.
There's a huge difference between hating an individual, and wanting the rule of law respected, I think. What's going on now is hatred and destruction, which abuses the name of the law. But saying, "this person is self-evidently in this place illegally, they should be tried and ejected", is not hateful. You can respect a person while saying they shouldn't be in a place.
I use it occasionally. The problem is, most of my communities are on Discord. Plus, rooms not being permanent on the server means that bots have to be hosted by someone, plus there's a severe lack of effective logging.
Basically, all the problems that later chat programs solve, I keep missing on IRC. I want persistent rooms. I want federation & bridging between servers. I need trustworthy remote logs. Since I know a lot of that has been handled client-side, I don't understand why it can't be implemented server-side with IRCv4 or whatever is next.
That's a really wide question. I'll give you my list of answers.
Here are my top three:
Shattered Pixel Dungeon, a roguelike descended from Pixel Dungeon. It's strayed quite far afield from the original PD, but I think most of the changes are good.
Mindustry, a hybrid tower defense and systems-building game. I've heard it compared to a game called Factorio, but I've never played that, so you'll have to take it with a grain of salt. Sorry.
Forkyz, a crossword app, which is a fork (appropriately) of a game called Shortyz. It allows you to download daily crosswords from bunches of sources for free and play them at your leisure.
Chip Defense, a tower defense game themed around computers. It's really fun if you like computers and/or tower defense.
Space Trader, a text-based game heavily inspired by Elite. Travel a galaxy, trade goods, blow people up, complete quests, buy a moon.
Here are some games on F-Droid that I'm not going to link, because i don't know how they do on Android, but I love them on PC:
Luanti, which used to be called Minetest. It's an open-source voxel building game engine (like Minecraft). It's very scriptable, and you can build a lot of stuff with a little knowledge and looking at examples.
Battle for Wesnoth, a turn-based hex-grid strategy game with day/night mechanics and multiple campaigns, both included and downloadable. And it's got multiplayer too!
Endless Sky, a spaceflight game which borrows heavily from the Escape Velocity series. If you like the concept of Elite, you should check it out.
OpenTTD, an open-source version of the classic Transport Tycoon Deluxe, but so much more.
@PugJesus@piefed.social They're only upset that the policy affected a single person. Other than that single individual they see as human, they're cheering.
And? The truth of the matter is that it sucks. I hate that Trump revealed that, but I've seen a pattern of behavior from him of showing off that money and bullying work.
He blew up a priceless art piece in the subway at Columbus Circle because he randomly decided the City moved too slow. The punishment wasn't throwing him in jail for destroying public property, it wasn't revoking his building's access to the subway. It was a minor fine for vandalism, and an accelerated timeline to build his subway access.
That's what he's always done. For him, bullying and paying people off has allowed him to do everything he ever wanted.
As someone in New Jersey (right near the stadium), I agree. Admittedly, I would be saying that you shouldn't come here even if things were great because I don't want the added traffic and further delays on NJTransit. But with the fact that there's a potential risk, absolutely - do not come.
Anything that I care about enough for that is related to one of four things:
Everything else, I can send an email or ask in a channel, rather than a private IM.
