For a small group of people definitely worth the effort of setting up your own. Treat it as a learning experience if mistakes are made.

GC post had me thinking…

PS2 - God of War 1/2 One of the best looking visceral fun games

GC - Metroid Prime / Echoes Exploring the world was something unique and different from the stock shmups

PS3 - Mass Effect Trilogy Last of us was probably the pinnacle but Space opera takes it.

PS4 - Witcher 3 Amazing amount of content and side missions dlc were huge.

 

Fave game / series for a console?

Still give Metroid prime the odd thrash… have been meaning to play RE4 again. Super Monkey Ball! My fave console of the lot but the controller is not the most comfortable.

Not sure I have a fave honestly. The first was great for its time. HR was good but it took me a while to slog through, and Mankind Divided I’ve tried 3 times to play and haven’t made it out of the first mission… Did anyone play the 2nd one?

Re: Eugen is literally selling out Fediverse users to data collection agencies on a very quick squiz on the librenet site I saw a lot of busywork but didn't see anything relating to this other than some $ received for maintaining accounts. Oh there was a thing about the subscribe form going to mailchimp. [?]. Somebody feel free to correct me.

It's telling that their first-leading-point is about how a - *GitHub issue that I (Sierra) filed relating to the Mastodon iOS App regarding the lack of ability to see the local timeline *- was handled, rather than the allegedy/literally privacy crime posted above.

This feels on the level of a bunch of ME3 players getting butthurt over the ending, but as I don’t know anything about the parties involved I leave it at that.

That is how it has been to date e.g join the .art instance to hang out with art people etc but could be part of a push in a new direction

~~Nothing to see here~~

 

Anyone have any favourites? Doing a run-though of PS3 mass effect and started on ME2 and was reminded of how good the opening with the destruction of the Normandy Was - great start to the game.

Started a runthrough of the original recently - In my opinion it holds up well as a simple horror game that doesnt try to do too much, textures are a little blurry, but the sound and lighting', ui, dismemberment mechanic are top notch.

I'm not sure I agree with success = massive engaging community. One metric of success is if users engage and stick around... @nutomic posted a relevant point in another thread

For corporate social media it is definitely a competition, but I dont think it makes sense to see the fediverse in the same way. We dont make more money from having more users, in fact having more users results in higher hosting cost and more moderation effort. Maybe there will be more donations, but thats far from certain. So I am totally happy even if Lemmy doesnt grow, as long as it provides an alternative space that some people find useful.

Everybody seems to be in a rush to see this thing grow huge, or to solve all of their desires (federate with mastodon!) That people see it this way though and that make about it means they have a passion for it.

My 2c

  • Donate funds to the devs to allow them to continue to develop or expand the project
  • Post content outside the core foss/privacy loop

Another build-it-to-get-bought-out bites the dust.

Glad to be self-hosting the following: Nextcloud - handy for work (cloud) Pleroma for activitypub connections, Matrix/Jitsi for messaging chat (both cloud) Miniflux RSS and Navidrome for music, (both lan) could be better options but those do the trick for now.

In this case artboards are multiple documents/canvases inside a single doc. Use case might be laying up a business card on two artboards front/back within the file. In my case it allows me to iterate design or layouts in quick succession in one file. Historically illustrator was only allowed single files/artboards and indesign was used for multi-page. You URL looks to be an edge case the basic overview is probably better https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/illustrator/how-to/visual-dictionary-artboard.html
