@thepaperpilot um… it looks like kbin.social doesn’t federate with incremental.social and i can’t subscribe to it yet?

oh wow! congrats on prestiging the incremental gaming community!

i’m a big fan of Free/Libre/Open Source games and that includes a lot of incremental games (Trimps, Structure, AD, Fundamental, etc).
i don’t have any accounts on corporate social media (like Reddit/Discord) so a more open incremental game community is a welcome change.
hopefully developers will add a “join Matrix room” button instead of asking you to sign up for Discord.

i started making a little incremental TIC-80 game a while back and maybe i’ll actually finish it now that there’s a community i can share it with.

Without Microsoft, TypeScript would not exist.

I’m not sure you are aware, but TypeScript is not the first language to compile to JavaScript.

Without TypeScript, people would have adopted a different JS transpiler, one that isn’t controlled by a monopolistic corporation with a history of extinguishing open source projects.

Or you could stick to software that doesn’t need lawyers or licensing or eulas or negotiations.

If you use Godot, you actually own your copy of the game engine, can do whatever you want with it, and aren’t waiting for some corporation to do crazy nonsense like unity did.

I asked you to not conflate cops that kill innocent people with EMTs that save people and your response is to conflate cops that kill innocent people with women and children in ukraine? Really?

You don’t need to develop a callous to gruesome scenes if you don’t cause gruesome scenes.

“unfortunate situation that they can not change” except by not driving over people at 70mph.

Don’t conflate cops with EMTs. The job of EMTs is to save lives.

I’ve never used inoreader, but Wikipedia lists it as “Freemium”. It’s not FOSS

Yup. From the article:

Payments of the bonds to the descendants of creditors was only finalised in 2015 when the British Government decided to modernise the gilt portfolio by redeeming all remaining undated gilts.

Since 2018, numerous Freedom of Information Act requests have been sent to the British government and Bank of England for the names of those who were paid with the bonds, of which all were denied.

Britain paid reparations to the slaveowners and their descendants. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slave_Compensation_Act_1837
The last check went out in 2015. So yes, people alive today benefited from this. directly.
If they want to make it fair, they should pay reparations to the descendants of enslaved people and/or take back the money they gave to slaveowners.

I haven’t tried thrive in a while. I hear they’ve switched engines again, to Godot this time. Is it playable? Is it fun? Do they have more than the single-cell phase?

The men can only move 1 square in any direction, while women can move anywhere on their row/column/diagonal. Clearly this biological difference is why they have separate men’s and women’s chess tournaments. Also, I hear trans people can double jump.

interesting.
the default config file is basically “Drew’s preferences watered down a bit for a general audience”
alacritty used to be Drew’s preferred terminal for sway.
sway does not come packaged with any terminal.

foot does not come with sway. why do you think foot comes with sway? foot and sway are unrelated.
they’re both good wayland software, though

“Oriya’s Kiki”? Do you mean Kiki the Cyber Squirrel, mascot of Krita, designed by Tyson Tan?
Who’s Oriya?

1. a bunch of nascar fans were chanting “fuck joe biden” at a car show
2. a reporter thought they were cheering “let’s go brandon” (one of the racecar drivers was named brandon)
3. right wingers start using “let’s go brandon” as a minced oath instead of saying “fuck joe biden”
4. left wingers start using “let’s go brandon” to signal support for joe biden. this turns into the dark brandon meme

Yes. American politics are that silly.

Owncast, a live video streaming platform, has fediverse integration.

Owncast is an open source streaming platform. It’s great for watch parties and it has its own built-in chat.

You can see a list of public streams in the Owncast Directory

People have been saying some variant of “the fediverse won’t work at scale if it stays free and without ads” for a decade now. And yet it keeps growing despite remaining free and without ads.

Nope. The Business Source License isn’t an open source license. https://opensource.org/licenses/ (not to be confused with the Boost Source License, which is open source).

I think you’re missing the forest for the trees here.

PeerTube accounts are for video makers, not video watchers. If I want to watch a PT video, I can do so without an account. If I want to leave a like or comment, I’ll do so from my mastodon or misskey account. The reason Peertube servers don’t tend to federate with each other is because they don’t need to: they federate with mastodon/misskey/pleroma servers for the people who want to watch. (also, the https://spectra.video/about/follows page OP linked seems to ignore non-peertube follows?)

As for finding new videos on PeerTube, I recommend using sepiasearch.org
