@grue @TheDemonBuer what distro do you guys have?
@veganpizza69 oh they’re actually banning google from paying for its search
@veganpizza69 @RustyNova then they lose google money, no?
“GitHub initially complied but later changed course. After consulting legal experts, including those at the EFF, it restored the youtube-dl repository. GitHub also launched a million-dollar defense fund to assist developers in similar disputes.”
Why is Github protecting them? They removed bypass paywalls, no?
@liveinthisworld @gwen Does that even help bypass their firewall when the native app doesn’t work
@DoucheBagMcSwag @Flatworm7591 What’s the news with Discord and by home you mean Dubai?
@ultratiem @piracysails The piracy megathread site says that’s a fake clone https://rentry.co/megathread-unsafe-sites
@lvxferre Define meaningful changes to core gameplay and Gamefreak doesn’t seem to have perverse monetary incentives to power creep so I’m just guessing a more benign creative block here rather than willful. I don’t think people buy Pokemon games for the competitive esports aspects anyway even though I see a lot of changes in later gens clearly geared towards VGC gameplay.
@lvxferre I know there are perverse incentives for power creep for games with in-game monetization but even with MOBAs who produce less and have less combinatorial possibilities on moves/items can have power creep so I don’t think mass production alone does it. I’d reckon power creep is a demand side problem, people get more dopamine when something they use is overpowered. Also legendary power creep prolly started with Gen III Kyogre rain-boosted STAB Choice Specs 150 base power spread move.
@sleepybisexual Aside from what lvxferre said, there’s also Stealth Rock with very ineffective way of removing it because of ghost types, random 120 base power moves and the physical/special split essentially buffing the coverage of offensive pokemon (Gengars can actually use Ghost type moves). Essentially the gen that made dragons overpowered. I guess you can say these are all subtle. Gen 6 onwards just made it more blatant with gimmicks like mega-evolutions, z-moves and terrain.
@lvxferre @sleepybisexual Gen IV was when the real power creep started to happen.
@cadekat @Olgratin_Magmatoe doesn’t ext4 have this feature or am I missing something?
