I mean, you're on Lemmy and Lemmy is social media. Granted its user hosted but its still social media, with a lot of the same pitfalls.

You might not be aware but there's also a fairly content-rich successor project called SpaceStation 14! Its obviously nowhere near as featureful as 13 is, due to lack of development time but has a very active development community around it.

One of the major (imo) improvements is a move to per pixel "real time" movement instead of the tile movement of ss13, it helps make them game feel much more alive and interactive.

Definitely worth a look for fans of ss13, and its also open source and Linux compatible.

I'm kind of in the same boat as you. My mainstay for the longest time was RockPaperShotgun, probably from 2008–2016 or thereabouts. Once the old guard left the quality of the site drastically changed, and it became significant shallower in terms of reviews. Not really sure where to get the same kind of journalism these days.

Me too. I laughed like a maniac at it and then felt bad I had no one to share the joke with.

I've only played the 2006 game, (loved it. 10/10 game for me) and was really excited for what was going to be Prey 2, there's still a trailer floating around for it, you'd be a human bounty hunter cast into the wider galaxy post prey 2006s story. Unfortunately that didn't get made.

I've heard good things about the 2017 but have yet to play it! Its been on my list for a while.

I went to a house party once that was a lot of different nationalities of Europeans. Two French guys got increasingly drunk and belligerent about the aesthetic quality of French churches versus Irish churches. To the point they had to he asked to leave because they were close to starting a fight. I've met several frenfh people over the years and theres always some spontaneous comparison between something in france vs here. OPs story is not so far fetched.

I'm just making a guess here, but there could have been more attempts that were nippedl in the bud early enough that we have never heard of them, because the would-be assaains were sloppier and got caught.

From someone who worked as a dev/engineer for a long time dont downplay DevOps as "not really development" most of what standard development is today is wiring together different services and building a UI on it. DevOps is a critical part of the impillar that is software development. Just because you're not writing the JS that renders the front end doesn't mean you're not developing for the product! Infrastructure is as important as UI!

Is that you Doug? Meep Meep!

Yeah it'd be a person table, and the relationship table indicating the ids of shipped couples. Do you think there'd need to be a status in the relationship table so we can tombstone exes? Or maybe started and ended date columns for each relationship so we can figure out whose cheating on who. But when about on-off relationships then? How would we model Ross and Rachel?

It does completely. Also, its "Milquetoast". Milktoast is just soggy bread.

Where did they post? This seems unhinged but also very intriguing.
