Unity adding a fee for devs for each time a game is installed, after certain thresholds
  • especially small ones with small file size games that are easy to reinstall over and over?

    Wouldn't even need a small game technically. I'm pretty sure the only way to properly calculate would be running a postinstall script and someone could presumably just keep running that script

  • Throwing a tantrum about what exactly? They're one of the oldest-running Lemmy instances. Until now they were running a fork based on a pre-Federation version of the codebase.

    You believe they did a bunch of work migrating their database only to then negate that work by destroying the community they wanted to Federate with?

  • This still baffles me, but I guess it's good for federation?
  • That's not radically different from what happens with other abandoned subs, except that usually they are actually abandoned and there has to be more talk about who should take over.

    Reddit's policy has always been that subreddit requests only apply if someone actually goes vacant. The only reason XKCD still doesn't have holocaust denial in the sidebar is because the guy who owned the sub disappeared. The XKCD case is especially egregious because I'd argue that associating a public figure's webcomic with a horrendous opinion he doesn't hold is something that would actually open you up to a lawsuit.

  • It's a lot more nuanced than that. The Chapo mods wanted to follow site-wide rules but reddit refused to explain what was in violation of them.

    Reddit actually has a weird history of flipflopping with the banhammer.

    Back in the day, the XKCD subreddit was run by a guy who linked a Holocaust denial subreddit and the red pill in the sidebar. Reddit didn't do anything about this. In fact The Red Pill still exists.

    But then when the subreddit owner closed KotakuInAction, suddenly reddit doesn't mind interfering with the free market of ideas.

  • The critique that there are no Japanese characters doesn't make a lot of sense. I'm not sure how they'd fit into the narrative, and also I don't trust an American director to really do that story justice. They could only ever write an American interpretation of the Japanese experience of the war.

    If anything, we should use this opportunity to promote films by Japanese directors that do deal with these themes.

  • What are some downsides of software being federated?
  • You could also share links in a Url shortened style and use that redirect to let someone select an instance or log in to another service to know where to send links. This also isn't great.

    The ideal would be a site that asks you for your instance once, saves it as a cookie, then automatically redirects you.

    1. You could trivially verify an emulated game with a checksum

    2. If a game is released on GOG, there are Checksums that are hidden from the user. GOG games are DRM-free, so there's no reason anyone would modify the installer.
