Oh, I get it, sorry for the confusion and thanks for the explanation.

It’s not? I’m not from the Anglo-sphere, so these new terms can escape me. Are not racism, white imperialism and minority issues part of the woke thing?


I don’t remember how much it takes, sorry, but if I got to the end it must mean that it was good from the start :)
For the woke part, the whole game is a critique of white colonialism: there are multiple factions, but it’s clear as the sun that the good one is the islanders oppressed by these new factions that came to.their territory ignoring or destroying their culture. Which it’s fine, I get and I agree with it, but after 20 hour I’m really full with it…


Well you get to manage a fortress, and that is a whole quest line plus an infinite number of random quests. Then how the final battle goes depends on which quests you completed during the story (but not only), how you completed them and on which choices you make in the first half of the final mission. Lastly, there is a huge dungeon with multiple stories each more difficult and more lootable the deeper you go.
I had a blast.


First one was a blast, especially with the whole fortress thing. Second one was good, but felt diluted and with “too much woke” shoved down your throat… Nothing against the themes per se, but not constantly in your face.


I have a personal profile with different containers for different uses: Facebook, google, banking, shopping, browsing, local host, etc.
Then a profile for my fencing association, with different containers for my admin profile, my profile as an athlete and some other profiles as needed (these are all google workspaces or google profiles).
Then a third profile for my scout’s group.
This kind of separation of context is what is keeping me on Librewolf despite the performances not on par with Brave and some other other really annoying issues.
I thought that was all New Zealand
Yep Farœ Islands can be pretty windy. This here is Múlafossur waterfall, near Gásadalur. One of the most magical places I have ever visited.
As Italian, I endorse this. A little clarification: the italian name is “pasta e fagioli”, which literally translates to “pasta and beans”.


One of the best, together with In The Mouth of Madness and The Thing. Carpenter’s trilogy of Apocalypse is peak.


Prince of Darkness?


Maybe I made it sound too easy because I’m used to do it and I find more challenging to add security features for authentication or to use some licensed libraries 😅 that’s a bias on my part.
Still I am not a good developer, and I have done it. Even the industry has done it, just look at all the downloadable servers on Steam, some of them even free. I expected it will not be difficult for experienced developers to comply.


And that’s just what is needed, if the game works as it does while supported.


You are right, licensing could be an issue. But as others said this is not a retroactive law, so new software must be developed accounting for a “free” redistribution. Hardcoded paths are just bad practice.
Never said it’s easy, but it’s not that hard. At my job we are required to deploy the whole server infrastructure on-premise, so we only use software with MIT license or something that allows us to distribute to our clients without disclosing the source code. We’ve been doing this for the last 20-ish years, our software accepts easily hundred of thousands of connections and with Docker and similar tech the whole thing can run on standalone PC (with performance limitations of course).
It’s not easy, but it’s doable. And that it’s all that is required by this proposal.


Dev here. It’s not a challenge.
This way you are not losing money (you are not making any either, but that’s why we are here) and the users can install the game and the required components to run it.
The most “challenging” thing you must do, on the server or in the game, is eventually authorized everyone, but I can’t see this as a challenge…


Nanowar are great: good music and funny lines! I suggest “valhalleluja” at volume 11 😄


My 2cents: Bezos money comes from other people’s works, entertainers money comes from the perception that other people has of their work. Of course there are exceptions.
For #1 you wanna try Magic wormhole. Maybe it’s less user-friendly than you need it to be, but it works and there are lots of implementations for different owes (don’t know about iOS though).
For that I use this list from Umberto Eco
