You joke but...

It's an initiative to stop game companies (EA, Ubisoft, Blizzard etc) from being able to decide if you can play a video game that you've bought. The example used is for the video game "The Crew" which was an online-only racing game. After the servers were shutdown by Ubisoft, the game that many people bought became unplayable.

What StopKillingGames wants, is that any company that publishes / develop games provide a way for people who own the game to continue playing it indefinitely. This would most likely come in the form of a game server that could be run by any owner of the game, and shouldn't be a requirement that publishers / developers run the servers forever as that would be unsustainable.

Complete speculation but I'd bet that the UK government is so fickle that if France sent in troops then the UK would 'have' to send in its own, and by that point the US MiC would be complaining that the US hadn't sent them in.

Someone was testing a program they made that links Lemmy / Mastadon (ActivityPub) to other services, think threads or Reddit.

When they ran the program it created all the dummy accounts and published it to the Fediverse making it look like a lot of new users joined.

That sort of rhetoric always feels sexist to me. The implication is that trans women shouldn't compete since those with XY chromosomes have some sort of superpower that means they'll beat those with XX.

The quote "Trans women can compete in sports as long as they don't win." always stood out to me.

Isn't it a benevolent dictatorship with Linus at the head?

Ye, let's ignore climate change and kill millions of people so that small businesses can stay open.

Which is already not a definite fact, but even if it was the same regulations can be written in such a way that grants exceptions to small businesses and funding to alleviate retooling / development costs.

If your so worried about small businesses closing down because of regulations, a better way of dealing with it isn't to stop all regulation.

I've had this, it tastes like savory cream soda 3/10, 1/10 with rice.
