@emacsenI love that games have become this incredible new form of storytelling that goes beyond movies or books and want to support the creators, but as you mention, so much is proprietary, most is even under DRM. 🙁MS is tough too. They have honestly done many things right lately, but its so hard to trust and corporation, not to mention the one that used to call libre software a "cancer." I'm trying to be open minded.

@emacsenWell said. And I totally agree about the need for more women in programming.

@CharredStencilI think that is largely true, but for example I think Tim Cook as a gay man really does care about human rights. Yes, at the end of the day he has to answer to the board. But I think some of what he does has value, and it isn't just for marketing reasons.

@CharredStencilAs @emacsen pointed out, when MS does something to promote women in programming, we can hopefully take some benefit from that. The corporations do exist for making money, but sometimes the actions are being made by humans that aren't entirely bad.

@emacsen@libreloungeAs a listener I would rather get the content with the warning than not get the episode. At least for a content heavy show like Libre Lounge. For more casual shows maybe not.

@RL_Dane I really feel you on this, along with the child post of “too much to do and zero focus.” ADHD is a constant struggle.
