Reddit is bringing back r/Place at perhaps the worst possible time

Jump

  • The last r/place was already heavily monitored by moderators with the ability to place pixels without timers, indiscriminately ban anyone thought to be placing pixels in certain locations from participating, and bury discussions talking about either.

    Not sure if they'd bother for this, I'd say it's 50/50 that any attempts to protest will be blacked out and the threads about them buried and/or isolated.

    • Blizzard games are coming to Steam

    Jump

  • Just a note, as a storefront, there are plenty of competing options that work with Steam. Think Humble Store and other resellers, Steam doesn't take any cut from those sales and while they do enforce some standards (Things like staying close to price parity with Steam on alternate storefronts) and can refuse to give out keys, the market there is definitely very healthy.

    • Signal. Privacy.

    Jump

  • The argument from Signal seems to be that they don't want to expend resources supporting it or potentially federating with them. They do seem to have past experience doing this with CyanogenMod, and it sounds like it went poorly.

    • With my recent de-modding and ban from the DnDMemes sub, I now have plenty of time to touch grass and help grow this community/instance. AMA I guess?

    Jump

  • That was legendary. We're going to share that with our descendants for generations to come.

    • Is jellyfish vegan?

    Jump

  • This is one of those things that's hard to define. If a popcorn kernel gets too hot, it pops and it's almost like it's trying to run from the heat. How is that different from a jellyfish reaction to pain? There's a lot of good arguments on both sides.

    Sometimes, I wonder how far away we really are from the popcorn kernel.

    • Denuvo wants to convince you its DRM isn’t “evil”

    Jump

  • It is a difficult problem, but there have been a lot of cracked Denuvo games, even in this article, it mentions that about half of the released Denuvo games have been cracked out of a total of 127, that's not a small amount.

    It is true though that Denuvo is complex and there's currently only one person who has been doing them for a bit and that person is presenting as very very mentally ill and may also be on a break... it's amazing reading, but it's hard to tell conclusively what's up with Empress.

    • Israel is hours away from becoming a de facto dictatorship

    Jump

  • I feel like trying to do this in a country where 2-3 years of military service and training is a requirement for all adults shows a lack of forethought. This seems like a society where you're going to want to try real real hard to keep the people content.

    • What are your thoughts on being called Lemmings if this platform becomes a staple?

    Jump

  • they may also use different terms for the instance they use or for the magazine/group that they are a part of.

    I feel like the community at sh.itjust.works really knocked it out of the park here. Feel like we may not even bother, everyone else is just going to be fighting for second place now.
