So Dualshockers and their Dragon Age review huh, they're just a rage bait publication now it seems.

This was silently edited out of it, with no word from them.

It's bad enough the writer put it in, even worse they're trying to bury it by silently editing it out.

While Dragon Age is often victim of the "your game is too woke" crowd, from what I've seen so far the criticism to the writing in veilguard is valid. One should be carefull not to dismiss honest and valid criticism to something objectively bad as just another "anti woke" argument. I'm definetly not getting this one at lauch, if ever.

@ojonnysilva this isn't about silencing criticism, it's about morons like this dumping Sweet Baby's name without having the slightest understanding what they do and then silently editing it out

Aren't they a DEI consultation company, among other things ? I don't know if its fair to go after them for bad games, but I get what people are complaining about.
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

writing that seems like it came straight out of twitter. I personally have no problem with the themes, or the suposed goal of DEI, but the execution is often lacking, even if people might look for scapegoats to blame with their biases, somethings are just bad regaddless of the discourse around it. I had not heard about SBI before today.

The botsin.space Mastodon server has been a huge part of the fediverse, and while it's sad it's being retired, I trust that the creative botmaking community will continue to thrive.

"So, given two choices -- asking for more donations so I can pay for more hardware to keep the instance running, or retiring it and encouraging people to support more community-oriented instances, I'll choose the second option every time."

Federation helps build secure, sovereign cloud infrastructures - curious how? ๐Ÿ‘€

By enabling on-premises software to compete with centralized clouds yet retain all the benefits of self-hosting.

And Nextcloud is full of federated features!

I was very happy to see a new version of the "Social" app released, since it was so hypocritical to announce federation as a key value, using "Social" as an example, while that app was completely inoperable on any supported versions of Nextcloud.

But now... before I install that app for any users, how can we be confident it won't suddenly stop working with the next Nextcloud update, like it did before? Have you committed to any platform stability to ensure apps

Germany Autumn Set

A set of four photos taken way back when in the southwest-German countryside. The area where I lived at that time had some delightful simple autumn offerings, especially when viewed at the right time in the afternoon.
