this is a demonstration of the value that comes from
1. knowing your hardware 2. having experience working on a particular engine 3. having years of performance data to work with 4. giving a fuck about the quality of your work
@clacke big true! this is definitely written from an institutional perspective, like you say individual devs are often held back from doing their true best by the way projects end up being run.
@am BOTW is better for exploring imo, the new one is more challenging so you kinda have to follow the story until the world is opened up to you by your progress.
@aven@Moon capitalism emerged during the colonial period of early modern europe. markets existed before the phenomena of joint-stock companies and absentee ownership were created. markets do not depend on this western concept of property to function, but the capitalist ownership model does. without the threat of violence, there is no natural mechanism to enforce the absentee property rights which are necessary to construct a monopoly.

the fediverse has many flaws, but the ones i'm concerned with are few:
* federating as a social context * social content curation / discovery * cooperative resource sharing * extensibility / customization
the fediverse would be a very different place if the nuts and bolts of the network were built around shared resources. as it stands, every instance has to rent a variety of resources with increasing monthly cost simply to exist. any potential collaboration requires high technical skill and extensive manual intervention.
various attempts at inter-server alliances or federations have come and gone over the years, but none have really addressed the issues of integration and resource sharing beyond automated block list replication. such naïveté.. perhaps the software we use is struggling under its own weight. i wonder why it stays like this.
i haven’t decided how i want to respond when i’m talking to people who are dreaming about owning land. i don’t want to be a dick obviously, but the concept of owning pieces of a living world just doesn’t make sense to me. i can get behind using the existing legal structure to liberate land and give it back to the first nations who can steward it properly, but owning it so you can build a fence and a chemical pool is like
