  I wish they’d make proc-genned interiors for certain planetary buildings, or at least create slightly different architectures. Every abandoned research station, every small outpost, every trade outpost, everything everywhere in the galaxy is exactly the same. Even the ruins you can excavate once in a while are always the same sandrock, tilted walkways with some chests

  No dates anywhere yet. It looks cool as hell, tho.

  Well, you’re talking about google, of course no humans are involved anywhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Minetest breaks the chains of being a Minecraft clone with a new name — Luanti⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Funnily enough, as Minetest/Luanti is written in Lua, it should be easy-ish, in theory, to import some of the simpler roblox games.

  Then again, good luck bringing people from Java Minecraft or Roblox over to a FOSS alternative. “Nobody’s there”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Internet Archive’s Fight to Save Itself⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Honest question, can we, common folk, make a motion or something for the Internet Archive to become some sort of Cultural World Heritage, protected by the UN?

  Actually, would that even be helpful in the first place? I have this naive notion that doing so would give it more protection and funding, so anyone that knows better please correct me

  The part of player created content sounds more like Second Life or VR Chat, but 2D. Or a 2D Roblox, minus the evil corpo behind it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TikTok is getting closer to launching an Instagram rival⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought you could already “share” texts in tiktok? You can DM and comment on videos. Besides, tiktok and instagram are already each other’s rivals, vying to keep people trapped there with infinite short videos.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Smart devices are turning out to be a poor investment⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh no, if only those people that kept shouting at every opportunity how terrible these “smart” devices were had been listened to shouted louder, maybe people would be aware. But alas, everyone nobody could’ve seen that coming, it’s truly a surprise.

  we are left with the remains of a dream unfulfilled and electronics that respond to the whims, fancies, and ever-changing business decisions of corporations

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Game] Suicide Squad Update Makes Game Unplayable on Steam Deck⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  13k peak at launch, steady 500-700 for the past few weeks. This update is also the first time the game got over 1k players since february 22

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Playtron plans to launch PlaytronOS, a Linux-based OS for gaming⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Of note, Playtron’s CEO is Kirt McMaster, the asshole who destroyed CyanogenMod for profit. Ars Technica’s comment section isn’t holding any punches on how unlikely this is to even become a finished product, much less something actually competitive against Steam Deck
