What do I win once I tick them all off?

Something about the Blitzball players all being characters you could find in the world, some of whom would otherwise be unremarkable NPCs really burrowed into my brain with FFX. Something about the fact that you’d have relationships with characters in two different contexts where they would often play a wildly different role in each really made the world feel a little bit more alive than normal.
I like it but found the fear of using items you might later need too be exacerbated to an uncomfortable degree by the magic system. I suspect I’d enjoy it more today than when it came out.

I’ve had experience with customer service roles where staff are empowered to solve issues and it requires very very very slightly higher investment in your employees to pull off.
All you’re arguing is that the web is decentralised, not that any given website within it is.

Piers@beehaw.orgto Linux@lemmy.ml•Flatpak standing the test of time: modern Flatpak apps running on Ubuntu 16.04 ESM, a 7-year-old distroEnglish4·2 years agoAFAIK it’s a system to let Linux software bundle all of it’s dependencies up with it so it just works in a self contained way that doesn’t care about what else is and isn’t installed.
Advantages is that they are more reliable and user friendly than traditional approaches to Linux software installation.
Disadvantages are that they have bigger footprints where you might have the same dependencies I dependently installed for each app rather than as a single installation that they all utilise and that they need to be updated individually (as part of the flatpak.) IE if basically every app uses the same dependency and it turns out to have a huge security hole, under normal Linux software the developer would patch it, you’d update it and the hole would be filled. With Flatpaks you need each individual Flatpak developer to update the version used by their Flatpak and for you to update all those Flatpaks before the hole is plugged. I think I remember they run in some kind of sandbox to mitigate this though.

I think you’re the guy I saw over there rambling on about an unfair moderation action then someone pulled the moderation log and it was for saying something like “you can turn any Jew into a Nazi by giving them some land.”
It looks like Kotick will be leaving after the transition so that’s a great start. My dream is that this all somehow leads to the full Overwatch PvE campaign coming back onto the table again (given that their attempts to provide long-term replay ability without doing the work seem to be floundering now, there’s a chance right?)

Depends whether or not you think most instances should take a stance against the far left. Personally I think the fact people treat Lemmy.ml as a generic all purpose sub rather than focusing that effort onto places like lemmy.world or lemm.ee is pretty messy and will only continue to create more and more issues. As for creating your own instance and defederating, why do that rather than just block their communities as a user if you want to avoid communist groups? Presumably there is a reason you wanted to be part of Beehaw?
What do you mean by /all?
If you mean /all on lemmy.ml, then yeah, it should, it’s what that site is for. If you mean /all on beehaw.org, that is a different /all. You could certainly debate with the beehaw community/admins about whether or not the lemmy.ml memes community belongs there and if the general consensus is that it should stay, you can block the community for yourself. That’s not the same as telling people who are using the community as intended that they are wrong for doing so.
You’re on the memes community for a political instance. If you were complaining about politics in the lemm.ee or lemmy.world meme communities I’d be entirely with you.
Yeah but more importantly, if you go to a website specifically aimed at communists and don’t like all the communism that’s a you problem.
Sad, disappointed, and worried.
