@DarkFox That’s good to hear, it wasn’t shitty enough as it was.

This was my first ever exposure to Battletech, and 35 years later I still love the franchise. This looks awesome.

Or “Just google it”

Hehe, 9 year old me teaching myself Turbo Pascal from library books in an effort to learn how to make my own computer games. I was shamelessly ripping off Battletoads with my own game called “Body Building Frogs”

Besides the very first Zelda, this is the only other one I actually DID finish, lol.

Could you not convert your characters over? I don’t play either one (I was more into Palladium games like TMNT and Heroes, or the old Westwood Star Wars), but I feel like it could be doable?

There were us knowledgeable early adopters who were ridiculed endlessly by … pretty much everybody … who actually worked to build the thing. Then the companies came… and brought with them the ignorant, unthinking majority of the lowest common denominator who believe everything they’re told to believe. I call it stolen. The consumer class that followed the corporations didn’t build this place, nor did they represent what we had built.

This page best view with: Netscape Navigator 3.0!

The unthinking sheeple who remain behind, the lowest common denominator of humanity… I won’t really miss them, honestly.

Hehe, the actual “old internet” resembles the fediverse of today, it’s what we thought the internet was supposed to be back then. Once corporations found the internet, we got the bullshit we have today.

not including calls to kbin.social? Curious how they factor in, since they seem to be getting pretty big.

Which only works with an educated and informed base of voters. Which is probably why the people who corrupt all forms of government spend so much effort in making sure we remain ignorant and misinformed.

It’s not knowing what we want, we all know what we WANT, it’s knowing what we NEED. We WANT to have more than anybody else (More money, more power, more … things)… But it’s not what we NEED. We need food, water, air, a safe place to sleep, love.

But we instead spend a bunch of time, resources and energy on things we don’t really need, and convince everyone else that THINGS define our worth, that we can only be good if others are worse off. We promote greed and hatred. We APPLAUD that shit and then try to emulate it. It’s not what we need though.

Hodor!

If someone makes a federated porn app, they could call it “Feddish” … just give me a mention in the credits.

I reviewed the Reddit app at 1* because it honestly is a steaming pile of shit sorry excuse for an app, especially considering how long it’s been in this state now without any improvement.

Ad companies can’t handle the idea that people don’t want to be hit with ads every 5 minutes. “Well, it’s just BAD ads”… no, it’s having my experience constantly interrupted.

Reddit: You can’t be private, people need to see the content, reopen or else!
TIHI: No.
Reddit: Fine, mods are gone and we’ve reopened the community. People who want to be mods speak up
Crickets: Cricket noises
Reddit: This sub is unmoderated, so it’s now banned so nobody can see it

So… Reddit just reclosed the sub they said MUST be open.

Sound logic. Real class act.
