If I understood the joke (not familiar with the acronyms), it’s about gas-based equipment breaking down more easily?

Going by the “moderates” section in the OP’s profile in his original instance, it seems to be https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/addons4kodi

Maybe in some cases, it helps to use Alt F10, or, since I’m using Mint and it may change in other systems, maybe the equivalent for yours?

And if the user uses Mbin instances, he/she can even block posts that link to other domains, as often political posts link to news sites.

And some times, having the initiative to create such more specific communities could be a change factor for the growth of a social media. Also, with federation, not just the person can choose where to create the community on while not making it a walled garden as other sites would still have access to it, but also if a community for the given subject already exists but the user thinks he can do better, he/she can more easily do it with how expansive the “fediverse” is.

Growth is a process, not an immediate switch. Every social media started small and then grew. If immediatism, or however it is called, was the predominant factor for any struggle to become an achievement, nothing would be achieved.

And on lack of contents, I, for one, block everything that is not of my interest, quite a lot to be honest, specially with certain niches spamming the federated platforms, but even then, I get a feeling I should trim even some of the communities/magazines I follow/subscribe to as I can barely catch up to those already.

Instead of “good guys”, feels more like “drunk guys”. They removed the games from everywhere, and even the moderators from GOG’s forum, despite usually trying to be as silent as possible for any matters (specially thorny ones), seemed at loss when that happened. And now, out of the blue, EGS granted permission to use Internet Archive’s uploads for the games.

Got RISC OS

mom, I’m scared

Though I have yet to get a Deck for myself, I’d probably use it a lot to read comics. Having used the Vita a lot for that, being able to control the comics with a physical controller was fantastic, and the far greater processing power of the Deck should also avoid pages taking a long while to load (loading Humble Bundle’s ebooks in measly 512 MB of RAM is an experience).

Regarding the question itself, Starbound and Minecraft. Maybe Final Fantasy XII if I was to play it multiple times, as I take at the very least 100+ hours to finished it, and 250+ if I’m not in a hurry.

But regarding gaming fatigue, perhaps it could be a symptom of playing too much of only a handful of game styles? If you wouldn’t mind, may I suggest to check some smaller games in length and scope, specially indies? Those tend to be rather diverse in their scopes and executions.

Fantastic!

Didn’t get it. "<.<

While I think fragmentation can grow into being a problem, trying to standardize things too much can be problematic too, as the developers would be bloating the software for features that the community may use very little, as well as, by consequence of the bloating, the devs being either limited to a design that needs to take into account the quirks of all object formats, or to make some frankenstein monster design to include those different formats.

A more reliable path, I think, is what Kbin (RIP) and its successor Mbin do, to have a section for articles and one for notes. While it’s still more load on the developers and the servers, at least it shouldn’t be as much as having to make sense of multiple formats together, since the two sections don’t directly interfere with each other. This, on a final point, is, to my understanding, and with their respective proportions, what happens with the Linux family of operating systems, where it’s also pretty fragmented, but every once in a while a way to put two different environments together appear, like Wine and Xfce translating Windows and QT5 programs, or AppImage and Flatpak trying to be as universal as possible by depending on as little default dependencies from the host system as possible.

Something I’ve been thinking about is that changes only happen organically, so I think it’s good to not be an insistent advocate for a platform X, Y or Z. Instead, I think that perhaps it’s better, instead, to simply use the platform the person is more favorable towards whenever possible, and if people then share something worth sharing, it should slowly bring people over. And regarding the annoying part, at most, making a note about technicalities and the type of people in the site could be good if discussions the person is engaged in allows, and if the person didn’t burn people’s patience by being pedantic.

From one side, it does seem like they’re selling something old as new, but from the other, it seems they’re retooling the adaptation process. And as people seem to slowly but surely pressure companies into going back to making quality products, perhaps it’s GOG’s way of saying they’re in this bandwagon of quality shift too.

Afaik, Termux is an actual Linux system made for Android’s file system and that runs inside an app, so it actually can do a whole lot more, provided there’s a tool ported for what you want. It can even run some graphical distros.

I think we misinterpreted each other.

In my original comment, I mentioned two separated cases. First, a “some ROMs”, referencing a more general landscape, and then the Genesis/MD collection from Sega specifically. And the “reasonably obtained” part is because some editions are very hard to come by, may be very expensive, and/or may be a nightmare to have the ROMs extracted from.

Then, with your reply, I thought you were asking about the former, when, going by my following reply, it would seem you were asking about the latter and that you thought I was talking about the latter too.

Would that be the case?

Going by some notes I have, for example, the Japanese versions of the Castlevania games, and also the games in the Namco Museum Archives collections.
