  • Man, I’m so torn. I want to support them and buy but they’ve just burned a lot of good will releasing less than a 1/3 of the features they teased and for such a cost in performance.

    KSP 1 has more features and can look almost as good with mods right? They’ve just bungled this so badly.

    I’m waiting for them to take the cash and abandon the game. Not the same squad it was…





  • “The ongoing strike, spurred by Huffman’s plan to charge fees to third-party apps that serve up Reddit content,”

    Then it goes on to talk about commercial AIs scraping reddit data through their api for deep learning for free.

    But the reality is people weren’t upset about the api charge, they were upset at the exorbitant price they released. There are so many other ways to be fair and to stop commercial use if that was really an issue. Plus, I wouldn’t be surprised if reddit is being scraped without the api from the front facing website anyway.

    Then, reddit double downed and spez just made a complete ass of himself. I could have done a better job as CEO, that guy is unqualified and delusional. If he stays at the helm reddit will surely sink




  • Yup, I feel like a lot of people complaining of too much centralization don’t fully understand how the federation concept works. Even if a single instance goes down, turns evil, ect - all of the content would have already propagated to all the other instances. It’s not ideal, because those instances would loose sync with each other since the initial instance went dark but we wouldn’t loose the content but commenters can still discuss within their own instance.

    Again, not ideal - but at least the content would be preserved.
