If your Mastodon timeline is too quiet just follow @grrrr_shark Constant boosts on all kinds of interesting topics. Or go find your own super-noisy constant-booster, that’s how we replace the algorithm.

PSA: Mac users should NOT buy Baldur's Gate III yet, as it is still in "Early Access" despite being fully released for Windows. Steam didn't warn me AT ALL about this, and I ended up playing several hours of the buggy version before realizing that I will lose all my progress once the final game comes out (~Sep 6):> Larian previously warned that save files from the game's early access period will not carry over to the game's full releaseSource: https://www.eurogamer.net/baldurs-gate-3-early-access-players-should-delete-their-saves-now-then-remove-the-game

To be clear, it's fine that the macOS version is delayed. Sucks but I'd rather wait for a stable version and build my save game off that. The problem is Steam not giving any indication of this before taking my 90$. Very irresponsible of them. I even read the System Requirements for macOS and there was no mention.There MUST be a way for them to communicate this to Mac users, and if not, they need to create one. Not that I should be surprised. Steam doesn't care about Mac users and never has.

@lain @feld Also, shouldn't this message also mention that the save games won't work in the final game? If that's still the case, it seems like really important information for anyone starting new saves.

@feld Isn't that for the SteamDeck product that runs Linux?Either way, what I'm talking about is the way the list their games. You still see the apple logo on games that haven't worked since Catalina released because of the 64bit transition, which makes it really hard to find games to play on a modern Mac. They clearly aren't willing to build their store to help macOS users find the games that will work.

@lain @waltercool@pl.slash.cl @feld I haven't tried gog before, didn't realize it worked for macOS, maybe I'll give it a try sometime. Don't love Steam at all, but it's longstanding and I’m "invested" in it at this point, so I shop there out of apathy (and becase games in the actual macOS App Store are always stuck at maximum MSRP forever).

Just to be clear: Mickey Mouse being in the public domain doesn't matter and never did, other than Disney being the antagonist promoting copyright term extensions over the course of the 20th century. What matters is the literally endless list of other works that were kept out of the commons because of Mickey. Mickey was a reverse-canary in the coal mine. Now that his copyright is finally dead, the rest of culture can finally breathe free. Image source: https://copyrightlately.com/public-domain-day-2024/

This is my new favorite meme: As long as the font is sans-serif, every time someone mentions AI, just imagine they're talking about "Weird Al" and react appropriately 🤣

@lanodan @khm That link is marketing for how little they are able to give to governments. Yeah they give what they have, but the whole point is they have almost nothing. Looks like all they hand over the fact that you use signal. Am I missing something?
