Newsflash! Every beer bottle can be put in sand quite easily already.

The second Hyperion book. Immediately followed by Consider Phlebas by Iain Banks. It has the same approachable writing style, doesn’t overstay it’s welcome, has similar deliciously out-there sci-fi, and I think may also be inspired by touchstone poetry.

I didn’t say that. I said why pick Discord from the myriad of other solutions?

What’s wrong with a tried and tested open forum? Hell, a lemmy server or even subreddit would suffice.

I mean, don’t use walled gardens as your primary community base in the first place right? This is a ‘solution’ to a problem that doesn’t need to exist.

Throwing my two-cents into the discussion, I tend to dislike walled/gardens on principle. Putting information behind account walls is detrimental to the principles of an open and democratic internet. So long as there are reasonable ways to limit bad actors, I would prefer we remain discoverable to the open internet.

I fell there’s still 12 months of dev to go in this game before it’s ready, when they add the missing stuff (now called DLCs) and address all the bugs and stupid design decisions they have to walk back.

Have you tried that shit they call “great northern”?

I’ve got a bridge to sell to anyone who believes these liars

Magic the Gathering these days

Look up “gl inet” routers

So the enshitification finally makes it way to firefox… it’s a sad time

Ahhh, more corporate stacking I see. Yeh, I’ve seen this one before, it doesn’t end well

Got to distract from the real issues somehow. Gotta keep that wealth extraction and concentrating system of exploitation alive. Can’t have the slave rising up to overthrow their masters again…

Pure propaganda. We all know the US are the harkonnen and we are at the point in the timeline where the emperor (capitalist class) has handed control over to another power and harkonnen have commenced their counter-attack under the hidden support of the emperors forces.

More competition is always nice, but not if they’re only building their own OS backbones. For linux mobile to be viable, it’s gotta be a team sport on the software stack

If the kernal edge is 6.13, why are many popular distros like mint still shipping with much older builds? (6.8 in the latest mint released yesterday)

Should be mandatory public health warnings on all tabloids, like cigarettes. Just as bad for your health, probs worse

Just finished a first attempt at a pilsner urquell clone, will see how it turned out in a few weeks. Looking to do a cheats kriek (cherry) if anyone has a solid recipe to recommend

Hey looks, it’s Magic the Gathering

Thanks, that’s useful, I think it’s convinced me to finally switch
