@jonah@lemmy.one you’re alive! Welcome back, this server needs 4 months worth of maintenance!

I’ve tried playing various Zelda games over the years but I’ve just never got into any of them. I’ve just started WWHD and it seems to suffer from the classic Zelda problem of having one very specific solution to a puzzle blocking off all progress, and not telling you at all where that puzzle/solution is if you haven’t already identified it! Also it tempted me with an open ocean of sailing and gave me some side-quest maps to follow, then when I tried to follow them it immediately turned me around and said “you can’t go this way yet”!

They’ve updated their ‘policy’, still with no accrual explanation that I can see:

The admin team updated the communities that they will allow archive links to be used.

No idea what the deleted comment you replied to said, but I’m a big fan of bringing the word “dork” back!

Articons seems to still have it

I’ve wanted to pay FTL on a touchscreen for years

Sounds like the very thing to motivate you to ditch your gmail account, don’t let them hold you hostage!

The Nexus legacy lives on!

I guess it makes complete sense for these “live service” games, but it’s so weird to me that the game itself changes and you lose access to something you might already have paid for!

The fact that they’re your whole life is the problem. You’ll understand when you grow up.

Can we move away from the habit of just copy-pasting clickbait video titles with no information as to what they’re actually about? Lemmy gives you a description field, you have the power to summarise videos which should really be blog posts!

So it’s all just a way to sell you cosmetics?

I was going to post something dismissive about an air-gapped phone being pretty useless, then I remembered I have an old Xperia Play which I repurposed as a dedicated emulator

If you’ve got a device with zero vulnerabilities which will never have any discovered then whoever made it is in need of a Nobel prize

I need all the protection I can get now Big Subreddit are after me!

Technically yes, but if you’re already paying for the thing you actually wanted then it’s essentially a free trial on top of that

Go back to your torrents, poor boy.

Lol, I thought we were going to have a serious discussion about the relative merits of advertising vs community servers with donations, turns out you’re just an elitist cunt. Probably my mistake for not seeing the “TikTok and YouTube are my only sources of entertainment” red flag!

It’s a free trial. I don’t know why everyone’s so shocked, they’re essentially giving you one or two free books in the hope that you’ll be hooked and want to pay for more!

Google will be shuddering

Well it is spooky season
