What a bunch of children crying out for attention.

I’m trying to make a game in this genre though I describe it as a base-building/simulation/survival game, other favourites include Oxygen Not Included, Timberborn, Factorio and Satisfactory.

Back on ye olde site I shared my Angels + Bobs run and it was a hell of a lot of fun! Have fun!! :D

Mastodon, easily Mastodon. I love it!

I did it like three times, each time finding a new error… I gave up eventually :(

I did a pixel and I think I got it wrong D: and I don’t know why D: WHY is my pixel pink

Moral rights

The preserving of the integrity of the work allows the author to object to alteration, distortion, or mutilation of the work that is “prejudicial to the author’s honor or reputation”

i.e. under the new TOS Reddit can edit your post to say that you eat dead puppies

I’ve not seen this “waive moral rights or attribution” in any other site. It’s not in Twitter’s, it’s not in Facebook, I don’t think it’s even legal in a lot of jurisdictions (moral rights cannot easily be contracted away).

Good news! In a few decades these temperatures won’t be considered “extreme” anymore.

I loved Reddit, but after the API shenanigans and the doubling down I went sour… and then I read the latest TOS…

You also agree that we may remove metadata associated with Your Content, and you irrevocably waive any claims and assertions of moral rights or attribution with respect to Your Content.

i.e. whatever you post WE own forever and we never have to credit you. It’s so horrifyingly immoral.

Yeah it’s been enabled on the crypto reddits for a while… as a result the subs overwhelmingly changed to “vaguely interesting and/or attention-grabbing but ultimately useless with a race to see who’s first” posts, signal-to-noise ratio got way worse.

This is fantastic, thank you so much for sharing!

I’m looking for a base building game community! Since I’m creating a base building game it feels slightly unethical to create it…

Volunteering is a fantastic way to meet amazing people.

After all, Reddit generously hosts our little community, and we’d hate to adversely affect them by making an immediate, detrimental change to that arrangement.

This is brilliant!!! 😂😂

I’m really curious how they’re doing it, too! I’m making a multithreaded simulation game and the parts that can’t multithread well are related to AI / character logic / tasks and errands / pathfinding, and anything to do with rendering.

I want to do something very similar to this!

1. download all my content (still waiting on that one)
2. put all my comments on my personal website each with a unique ID
3. edit each post on reddit to point to the content on my website, that way I maintain control but the internet doesn’t lose information

do you think your software could do this? :D

I’m still waiting on the data export (30 days!?) and then I’m editing and deleting all my content.

I’d use to say “at least OpenGL is cross-platform” but both Microsoft and Apple prefer their alternatives (DirectX and Metal). :(

It depends what you’re wanting to do and what you define as ‘cheating’? I’d expect you’d get better at debugging massive amounts of hallucinated code, but I don’t think it’d generally improve your skills in software design/engineering/architecture. It might help you learn about breaking down software and integration though.
