I want to be attached to them, know their backstory and motivation, ya feel?

I like to live in the blurriness

Even when I saw you, I don’t want to bother you

how programmers see other programmers?

i don’t know why but all I can think of is that this is so cursed lmao

“time to Elden Ringing”

this isn’t very reliable as it relies on someone (be it real person or a bot) to archive the specific post / answer.
if your post / answer gets in the front page or all or popular, there might be a chance, but if it died in ‘New’ ? fat chance there’s an archive for it.

shit crop, OP

in honor to him, I’ll slap myself

better to just keep growing slowly rather than having massive capital and quick improvements only to be killed later by Meta.

there are instances in the past where big players acquire the small ones and while at first they seem to be cooperative, it ultimately destroys the small players, one such case is XMPP the open chat protocols long before we have Matrix, killed by Google

I guess this is a cautionary action, better to grow slower rather than be killed by Meta.

I kinda sorta getting used to kbin, lemmy, mastodon and such, but peertube is a different beast altogether. I still have no idea how to find videos

try looking into this list

there’s workaround but it’s a pain in the ass… https://www.myabandonware.com/game/sid-meier-s-civilization-ii-453

basically

1. the game use old .bin disk file, you must convert it to .iso
2. mount the .iso
3. run the setup.exe to install Civilization II

also the reason you can still find a dialogue window from like Win95 lol, people often whine how Windows doesn’t look as pretty as MacOS, but I think that’s just the price for crazy backwards compatibility.

if they remove those old elements, I’d bet people are gonna rage about how their old games or software no longer work.
