    @dushman I remember a professional game reviewer I chatted with writing "I lost trust in Ubisoft since last generation".

    This was in like 2010, and he loathed Assassin's Creed and was sure as hell Assassin's Creed 2 was going to be a trainwreck

    Funny thinking back that all game reviewing websites were already dying thanks to YouTube reviewers looming their heads out, and soon enough the entire reviewing complex would trigger the GamerGate. Man, oh man how many things were brewing and we didn't notice

    @jeffcliff @GoodBoyUV @absurdlyobfuscated @nugger @scenesbycolleen @ElDeadKennedy I recall the existence of Soviet-aged attempts at growing fruit trees in trenches deep enough to create microclimates, assuming no snowfall. Can't find the paper, though

    @sun No joke, if this had been successful, it would have prevented Chrome from becoming Internet Explorer 2.0 (Because most of the internet is Chrome-based phoneposters now)

    As for the OS, doesn't matter, all phones use shittier forks of other OSs

    @sendpaws @david @phnt @raccoon @japananon @mischievoustomato But cracked servers wouldn't be a problem if things were host-able by users because "it's their problem", and it was never about piracy or cracked servers, it was about forcing users, gradually, into closed source and wallgardened ecosystems where they can be milked for much more easily.

    PC, not being a closed enough platform, was to be removed from the equation. Of course, Valve threw a wrench into that, but that's what they were going for at Microsoft.

    @sendpaws @david @phnt @raccoon @japananon @mischievoustomato Back when developers considered themselves "l33t", they had been trying to kill off the PC market for decades, since closed platforms were easier to optimize for, while Microsoft was attempting to move over its gamer userbase with Games For Windows Live.

    Of course, Steam was about to throw a wrench into their plans and demolish the entire industry in the process, but it didn't start because of Linux (Which noone took seriously as a game platform in the late 2000s), it's just that developers didn't want to optimize for PCs, and Microsoft wanted to get Microsoft gamers into the 360 to milk them from a dual Windows + 360 point of view.

    Piracy was largely an excuse, since people that couldn't afford 60$ games + DLCs were unlikely to afford game consoles + paid online + 60$ games + DLCs

    @sendpaws @david @phnt @raccoon @japananon @mischievoustomato It became more and more difficult to play with frens when the dynamic duo of 360/PS3 came out, and they were already matchmaking/global servers first platforms.

    Sure, there was still LAN (As a second thought, with plenty problems on average), sure there were profiles/accounts/gamercards where you could build clubs of "friends", but the writing was on the wall already when you *had* to play in a big server with strangers to fill up the quota of 16/32 players, even if you actually managed to bring your whole squad along, nevermind going duo/trio.

    I remember clear as day game site reviewers lamenting the death of LAN parties and users saying they were thrown into servers with weird Latinos/Eastern Europeans and having miserable experiences.

    @sendpaws @david @phnt @raccoon @japananon @mischievoustomato How many of those broken/denied titles have their servers closed down already?

    Y'all act like it's a Linux problem, when if you're unable to self-host your multiplayer-first game is effectively a time-limited license unless it's Fortnite.

    @IAMAL_PHARIUS Theoretically there should be ways to substitute copper for various kinds of amorphous metal alloys, but I bet there's no relevant manufacturing capacity for those.

    @supersid333 @DW2 @PraxisOfEvil @Hoss There's the @MeanwhileInOhio man who can tell everyone what he is going through and what shitshow he has to deal with daily for job hunting purposes.

    My 2 cents is that it was never good since the latter half of the 90s

    @MK2boogaloo @lina @sj_zero He got increasingly repetitive and soulless. Part of it obvs is the increasing difficulty in finding new content to talk about, but since he dropped his actual job to do YouTube you kinda feel he's less himself

    @lina @MK2boogaloo @sj_zero Back when LGR was still cozy he often noted that there were already entire shops selling for hundreds dollars what he could find by thrift hunting.

    It probably is even worse now.

    @Hyperhidrosis This was something the very first anons learned when the Eternal September happened in 1992: you either do some gatekeeping, or intruders will come in and shit up your garden.

    That brought about the era of internet forums when the www became popular enough. There were indeed many forums for all kinds of topics, and they almost always had an off-topic section. Don't get me wrong: admins could easily be arbitrary, and not all forum communities were good. But it didn't matter, because there were just so many. Banned in one niche thing forum? Jump into this other forum about the very same niche thing. For a while most of the Internet was small interconnected archipelagos of forums.

    Then corporates came in, and sucked all potential userbase into large socials. Youngsters don't know any better, oldsters just went there because it was cooler. Forums gradually lost critical mass and went away.

    • Vivi Nella Verita
    @verita84 @p It happens that nowadays system administrators are reduced to basically peons, who were either never thought how to properly handle systems, or otherwise are prevented to do so because going off the books might hamper management issuing reimbursement requests to whatever service/insurance providers they're working with.

    And the books say that these days if you have not offloaded most of your infrastructure to a SaaS provider with some kind of "cloud- compatible" "solution" you're not serious enough. Mix in Agile, containers, and VPS and you get to the point we're in.
