Porthos made it to the end of his series, meanwhile Jadzia…

But Vulcans are vegetarian! Surely this should be something plain and veggie. A hummus pita with a single kebab shop pickled chili.

Same in Avelon.

Despicable. I was reliably informed Harry lasted 22 minutes.

Bringing a 4x to console is a reasonably large undertaking. It’s not just the work that goes into creating an intuitive controller scheme, and establishing input speeds etc., it’s all the additional UI that it requires (unit selection etc). Then there is getting it past the platform holder. Used to be a complex system, it’s become easier in the last 10 years, but you still have to have a save system that’s compatible with the requirements of the platform, you still have to be able to support suspend and resume in your gameplay, you still have to put in trophies and achievements. It’s months of work for a small team, and ultimately, if it won’t pay the bills, then they can’t justify doing it.

This depends on the job and role, I know plenty people who tend to be flung at a project for 6-8 months, then pivoted to another, ad infinitum. For them, changing company etc is only slightly more inconvenient for them and the employer than shifting internally.

He’s a good man. A union man.

Finally caught all the way up with Prodigy, back to 100% of Trek watched. It was surprising to me how much having unwatched Trek irked me, and how satisfying it made finishing the season!

UK Netflix has it now

I think the issue most are concerned with sits under the layer Admins are at. It’s not necessarily about the community administration, it’s about the software that makes up Lemmy. Threads will almost instantly make up 99% of users, so what incentive have they to play nice. The XMPP debacle wasn’t about integrating poorly, it was about specifically building a community in which was dependent on Gtalk users then mutating the protocol, eventually breaking with it. XMPP of course survived, but it died soon after, because when all the users no longer have access to their communities, why will they stay? Lemmy admins are worried that threads will become so integral to the fediverse that it’s removal will mean that users (who let’s be honest, don’t want to check more things than they need to) will go with threads.
