3·2 years agoIt’s a video game show that uses the rules of the video game world.

Technology@beehaw.org•Fedi Garden to Instance Admins: "Block Threads to Remain Listed"
5·2 years ago- “Run around” = Respond to a thread that appeared in my subscriptions.
- “Must lick Meta’s boots” = Let users decide for themselves to block Meta.
Your hyperbole makes it obvious you have no place in a reasonable debate about this topic.

Technology@beehaw.org•Fedi Garden to Instance Admins: "Block Threads to Remain Listed"
9·2 years agoI love when people conflate rights and ethics. I agree with you that no one has a right to be listed on Fedi Garden. And I still think it’s not nice to pressure admins into taking choice away from users.

And I don’t think it’s nice to take the choice away from users. I can block threads all on my own – I don’t need a nanny who doesn’t even cite their sources.
“Monday”.length is working JavaScript and does equal 6. No print command afaik though.

Technology@beehaw.org•Tumblr and Wordpress to Sell Users’ Data to Train AI Tools
18·2 years agoFun fact, it’s been two different groups of people in charge! Yahoo! was responsible for removing adult content and then sold it to Automattic for pennies on the dollar. Automattic then went through several rounds of different poor moderation before the CEO himself stepped up to share GDPR violating information on Twitter. Now we’re adding AI!

Programming@programming.dev•What are the craziest misconceptions you’ve heard about programming from people not familiar with it?
1·2 years agoThe things that make me a good programmer:
- I read error messages
- I put those errors in Google
- I read the results that come up
Even among my peers, that gives me a leg up apparently.

34·2 years agoTo make matters worse, they keep reusing the same names for things. I honestly don’t know if I use Google Pay or Google Wallet? I just push the credit card icon on my phone.

Dungeons and Dragons@lemmy.world•Dungeons & Dragons Publisher Denies Selling Game To Chinese Firm: Here’s What To Know [was: Hasbro Seeks to Sell IP “DND” and Has Had Preliminary Contact with Tencent]
2·2 years agoI think Tales of the Valiant is closer to D&D 5e and also licensed under ORC. Either is a great option for people looking to leave D&D though.

5·2 years agoSmall improvements and cosmetic changes appear throughout, but outside of a few minor changes in terminology, the changes are not anywhere substantive enough to be considered a new edition.
Pathfinder Second Edition Remaster Project!
Don’t quote me on it, but I’m pretty sure the remaster was about removing anything licensed under OGL so they could license it under ORC.

Dungeons and Dragons@lemmy.world•Dungeons & Dragons Publisher Denies Selling Game To Chinese Firm: Here’s What To Know [was: Hasbro Seeks to Sell IP “DND” and Has Had Preliminary Contact with Tencent]
91·2 years agoWait, I guess it makes sense. Fire everyone, sell to another company, then that company can try to rehire at a reduced salary.
Nah. They’ll sell in a leveraged buy-out, which will give the shareholders at Hasbro tons of money, cost Tencent nothing, and put the new D&D LLC in tons of debt. Then they’ll piecemeal out any IP or assets that can make them any money before letting D&D LLC go bankrupt. See what happened to Toys R’ Us for a past example.

13·2 years agoPathfinder 1e had a good license and would be very familiar to D&D 3e players. Pathfinder 2e has a great license but would have a bit of a relearning curve for D&D 5e players.
Tales of the Valiant is probably the closest to 5e with a great license.

8·2 years agoD&D’s 5e SRD was released under CC-BY. It only includes one subclass per class and a handful of monsters, but it’s all the rules.
Tales of the Valiant and Pathfinder 2e both have SRDs licensed under the ORC license and are based in D&D-type gameplay.
FATE is a different type of TTRPG that has a SRD licensed both under OGL and CC-BY.
Powered by the Apocalypse is a different system and has a permissive, but hand-wavey license.
Of all of these, ToV is the most like 5e without being controlled by a multi-national, public company.

Technology@beehaw.org•What's behind the tech industry's mass layoffs in 2024? : NPR
2·2 years agoYeah. I worked for a SaaS company that had two rounds of layoffs because they hired C-suite executives who were better at talking than building software or running product teams.
One was let go in the layoffs – but given a book of clients to start a competing business. The other is still there holding pointless meetings that keep people from getting work done.

Technology@beehaw.org•Substack says it will not remove or demonetize Nazi content
40·2 years agoIt’s also disingenuous because they already decline to host sex workers newsletters. So if the censorship angle was true, they’re already censoring.















Of note, the study was conducted on 800k senior citizens.
