  • OK but they do look immersed. What sense is missing for them to feel so? Smell?

  • The proprietary firmware is already there, and if you don't update it, your libre system becomes more insecure and less reliable. Distributing updates for those devices is a net gain for software freedom.

  • But honestly if the non-level based version is also fun and has 100h+ of content, then I am actually considering getting it xD
    I really like the base game, but deleting it all the time just is so cruel. I assumed the sandbox mode is like Minecraft Creative mode.

  • Huh, there's also a sandbox button in the demo I think, I just never thought it'd be fun. Don't know if it actually even works in the demo.

  • I am not saying that we need to replace every non-libre firmware, I am saying that not using firmware updates is hurting free software adoption and doesn't advance user freedom.

  • I agree! But in at least one case the FSF's understanding/handling of free software is ineffective: firmware. Especially with boot chain security being increasingly implemented in a user freedom hostile way, the focus as presented by the FSF is imo too narrow.

  • Thanks for doing the Guix rant I am too lazy to do. Also: does NixOS even have something like --ad-hoc?

  • That's what people tell me, and why I played the demo. What irks me a bit is since it is level-based, my cool automation complexes get reset/lost everytime. That's obviously the point of the game I guess, but... I guess I expected more of a Minecraft modpack kind of gameplay.
    I guess I'll just wait a few more months to see if I have an epiphany. It's just so expensive in comparison..

  • It is supposed to run fine on the Steam Deck, so I guess?

  • Can't decide whether you're talking about Google shutting down Stadia or the Berlin Wall /j

  • If it weren't so expensive... I was looking at Factorial and Cyberpunk 2077 for months now, but the price is so much higher than the games I normally play.
    I have read Factorio's reasoning for the price, but after playing the demo, I don't see how they are in a different position compared to e.g. Terraria or Don't Starve.

  • Gulugulu? I'm more into gluglug kind of fish

  • maybe he got those quotes from Wozniak, too /j

  • I am pointing out that user-controlled computing and user freedom is in a bad shape. That's not nay-saying, since there's a way forward: open hardware and offline-first/p2p software.

  • OK but was Florgenspickel canceled or is it just over?
    Please respond quickly I might need to cancel my train ticket

  • No one gets to decide what i run on my device

    (Except your device's manufacturer)

    No one gets to decide where i run my app

    (Except your cloud/SaaSS provider or proprietary app developer)

    No one gets to decide what must be deleted
    (Except your cloud/SaaSS provider or proprietary app developer)

    !I assume this was your point already, I am just agenda posting over here :3!<

  • Awww, that's so nice!! Actually I am in a relatively good spot, just have to wait a few more months..

  • I take what I can get, hit me with it please
