comunque per farsi bannare basta linkare a Diorama, eh

@Solumbran @mr_MADAFAKA better late than never.

@Jarix oh, that, yeah. GOG is currently in a decent position because it has a launcher, but it’s basically a “thin layer” on top of APIs that allow anyone to download the installers (plus some services to manage those installations). As long as the underlying APIs remain accessible, it’s fine. (This is e.g. how lgogdownloader allows one to archive their whole library for offline installation.)

@Jarix @leave_it_blank offline installers (what you get from GOG) are forever. Ask my library of archived GOG installers.

mi piace vincere facile

@kathsone @macfranc @fediverso sono pronto a scommettere, pur essendo stato abbastanza assente in questi ultimi giorni, che posso indovinare almeno una delle istanze coinvolte al primo colpo.

@Solumbran @JigglySackles there was a particularly heavy handed show off when visa and Mastercard were going after adult games on other platforms in a «but them before we’re forced to delist them», but other than that I don’t remember them being pushed particularly strongly

@swelter_spark @PiraHxCx no chance to play them with him? «I got a bunch of adult games for free when there was that whole Credit Cards vs adult games creator kerfuffle, wanna try them out with me?»

@JoMiran I use lgogdownloader

from the command line on the my home server.

@jewbacca117 @expatriado did they lose in court? If not, that’s just an excuse.

@atomicpoet @retrogaming yup, I used to play the Wii through a projector and it’s AWESOME

@dansup@mastodon.social placing a bet on flipboard then 8-D

@dansup@mastodon.social do they actually federate via AP?

@atomicpoet thanks for doing this, I was collating a list of the unreactive servers myself, but bidding your post is easier ;-)
Can confirm that these are the only servers that I’m still getting spam from in this wave.

@trwnh@mastodon.social actually what made me think of “extensions of email and newsgroups” was more the object structure, but on second thought that’s more an ActivityStream characteristic than an ActivityPub one, although an actual implementation of the C2S part of AP would still fit the bill in some sense.

(Yeah, the lack of usage of DELETE and PATCH surprised me initially, but the fact it would have needed to also define how to propagate them partially explains it.)

@trwnh@mastodon.social this was a fascinating read, thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the blog post.

I’ve had thoughts along those lines since I’ve started using Mastodon and getting familiar with AP, which I always saw as an extension of email and Usenet rather than a more general tool for the “social web” —and even for that it’s being held back by the absence of a “content independent” AP server (AFAIK the only one in development is Vocata, and it still has some way to go).
