Notices by チャノさん (japananon@mitra.anon-kenkai.com)

@djsumdog Just a note, all the local doujin physical sales sites (Japanese) show this as sold out... it might be in very short supply, so scans of it could be hard to find.

It looks like BANGSOM/fevercell (the creator circle) is selling it on Melonbooks in Japan, but their site is busted right now for some reason. It also looks like they're going to summer Comiket this year, and might have back issues. I'd be willing to get and scan a copy, if somebody covers the costs.

After a long year of tinkering and slaving over a hot DarkRadiant, I'm finally ready to start public beta testing of my new Dark Mod Fan Mission, "The Last Night in Stonemarket":

https://share.anon-kenkai.com/threepenny2.html

It's is a much bigger and more ambitious map than my first outing, and I'm sure it's in desperate need of outside eyes to help find and quash bugs. I'm mainly coordinating beta testing over at https://forums.thedarkmod.com/ , but if anybody plays DarkMod and wants to do some testing "out of band" over here, please feel free. I'd be happy to respond to feedback here.

We are now rocking Mitra v4.3.1

Looks like everything's working

@colahpse @lain Free Culture and Copyleft are very much foreign concepts that have not and probably never will become common over here.

@colahpse @lain It's also worth noting that the DO NOT REPOST notices are not intended for other Japanese. I distinctly remember starting to see them printed in Comiket doujins right around the time foreign interest and participation started to significantly increase.

@smugumin This is even better than the MLK Day shit

@waifu Mr. Important was just a misunderstood man born in the wrong time

Today I had to finish a Morrowind main quest by using engine commands to teleport an NPC to a quest location, after using other engine commands to determine my XYZ position to assist in said teleportation.

Bugthesda never changes.

Well, shit...

@phnt @SuperDicq @lucy @bunni Certainly doesn't help that literally anyone and anything has been and is being labeled "nazi" and "fascist" for the most retarded shit, to the point that the words no longer hold any meaning.

@moli Unifans has already showed a willingness to cooperate with artists and try to abide by the rules of payment processors. They claim that material posted on the Unifans site itself is restricted, but users who link to third party platforms, or who upload encrypted material on other platforms and use Unifans to share the password is permitted.

I still don't think Unifans will last forever, and they'll eventually be forced to obey so-called "global standards", but they can be useful as a payment gateway and support platform, so long as the actual material is shared elsewhere.

Using Mitra, for example, it's possible for somebody to pay to subscribe on Unifans, then they create a Mitra account which you gift free subscription access to. In that case, no offending content is ever posted to or hosted on Unifans. They get their percentage, you get a donation, everybody wins.

@p They're talking about doing an IPO in the near future, and they've just appointed an Activision-Blizzard suit as their new CEO. Talk of more ads and monetization. Also UK users are being asked to submit to facial scans for ID, it's bring assumed this'll see a global rollout eventually.

Watching people panic over Discord's enshittification crescendo is funny. Told you bitches to stop using that drek years ago.

I've recently signed on with a very new XMR based market site similar to MoneroMarket & XMRBazaar called "Monero United":

I'm not a natural evangelist of these kinds of things, and I'm a skeptic of anything new out of practicality. But I'm impressed by one thing they've enabled... PGP-key Based 2FA.

I'm asked to submit a pubkey when I make an account. If 2FA is enabled, it gives me a verification code encrypted with my own pubkey on login, which I have to decrypt with my privkey & then submit to complete 2FA.

Maybe this has been done elsewhere, but this is the first time I've encountered it and I find it a very neat and elegant 2FA method compared to many alternatives.

Test post. This is being posted via Mitra v4.0.0

Server is behaving weirdly... systemctl shows the mitra process as having failed to start, but the server actually seems to be running and I don't know why.

I appear to need to manually run the "mitra server" command to start the HTTP server on every server restart. I don't know why this is necessary, but it appears to be systemctl that's fucking it up, because it otherwise works.

AFAIK the mitra service file has been properly updated along with the rest of the installation, and it's clearly pointing at the correct executable, but it won't start on its own. Logs show "Main process exited. code=exited, status=2/INVALIDARGUMENT"

Paging @silverpill , since I'm not certain what to pin this on. the mitra.service file appears to be identical to example in the repo... the "mitra server" command works perfectly fine when manually executed via CLI, but systemctl stumbles over it:

Problem solved... had an old redundant service file in /etc/systemd/system that was overriding the newer one.

@get God, he looks so fucking happy, I love it.

@mischievoustomato @david @phnt @raccoon Somebody release a PS5 emulator, but it's just a dummy program that spits out "Error: Games Not Found" if you try to do anything with it.
