peperony and chease

I vaguely remember being disappointed by 1 but liking 2 well enough.

I'm several hours into Legion now and the writing hasn't gotten any better, but I found a human statue street performer to recruit to my elite hacker squad so that's cool.

I played one of the Moraff games (I think Dungeons of the Unforgiven) and remember it being like an acid trip. In retrospect I probably didn't have the colors set up right.

Lethality is... weird. Cyberpsychos in particular seem to always take non-lethal damage, I guess as an anti-frustration game feature.

I used a katana for most of them and as long as I didn't accidentally give them an extra hit after they started falling down, it was fine. Conversely, I had a "non-lethal" automatic rifle which almost always killed them since at least one extra bullet would hit them after they went into their falling down animation. You can still accidentally easily kill them even with Gorilla arms if you're spamming attacks.

Without realizing, I tagged my last few posts as "English." If I go into my user settings and select "Undetermined" in my languages, they become invisible to me. If I select English, they become visible but now a huge number of posts on the site disappear. If I deselect ALL languages, then I can finally see most things (maybe?). It's kind of a mess and I think the safest bet is to just not select a one at all for your posts until they overhaul the languages.

e: The language stuff really either needs a complete overhaul, or needs to go entirely. Are you even going to be able to see my reply here if you've selected "English" in your settings? I guess we'll see.

never fade away!

I'm so relieved to hear they're finally putting out the end to the story, ten years later.

I think multi reddits (which are a highly requested feature now) could be used as a decent compromise.

Basically imagine users can group communities together into one mini-feed. This could be used for similar communities across multiple instances, like !music@lemmy.ml and !music@lemmy.world. Call them multi-lemmies or subscription groups or web rings or whatever.

Then, what if moderators could cooperate create their own recommended feeds that users can subscribe to? Maybe even put a link to it next to the "Subscribe" link in the sidebar. If users of both communities are encouraged to sign up for the multi-lemmy, then everybody can see everybody else's content in one combined feed without having to cross-post.

Posts are still hosted on their home instance, so there's no extra work for moderators except over agreeing which other communities can join the ring. If a user doesn't want to see a particular community for whatever reason, they can still subscribe/unsubscribe to specific communities like before. That way we get the best of both federation and similar communities sharing content.

I have accounts on both because I feel like we're going to see a lot of changes over the coming months, and I'm curious to see how the two evolve. I'm mostly using Lemmy right now because I find Kbin's interface a little annoying to use, but they're both being actively updated so that might change soon.

I think I know what they mean (to give them the benefit of the doubt). It was disgusting and immoral and should never have been allowed in the first place, and to make matters worse the admin's final motive behind the deletion was "it's making us look bad" and not "wtf get out of here with this garbage"

Forgive me for dragging up some OLD drama here but the comments on this announcement post have irritated me for over a decade now:

https://www.reddit.com/r/blog/comments/pmj7f/a_necessary_change_in_policy/

• "You're opening Reddit up to outside influence!"

• "MY FREE SPEECH THIS IS JUST LIKE 1984"

• "Akcthually, both sides are correct!"

• Literally a confessed pedophile arguing his "orientation" is perfectly "natural" and getting upvoted to the top of the page

• People whining that SomethingAwful was going to be smug about "winning"

Fuck Reddit.

I would think either of those would work well. I know B/X stuff is generally fairly compatible with AD&D, and afaik AD&D 2e isn't that different. And Hyperborea seems very cool.

I use https://lemmyverse.net/ since I'm on a smaller instance and a lot of communities just don't appear for me until I've manually searched for them.
