I would be entirely fine with Flappy Bird passing into the public domain, but this isn’t even that. They actually own it now.

Did you even read the article?
This is not the same Flappy Bird. The original game already has been preserved, the APK is floating around if you know where to look.
This new game is an outright scam using stolen IP to trick users into thinking this is the original.
Normally these kind of announcements come with some kind of explanation. The lack of one reflects very poorly on Mozilla and leads me to assume the worst.
So real gambling is M, fake gambling is R18+. Makes sense.
FWIW, all three Boktai games do have patches if you can’t play on original hardware.
Under Night In-Birth II [Sys:Celes] - Haven’t had a whole lot of time to practice, but I’m working on charge partitioning. Managed to get double ball a few times in a match.
Mahjong Soul/Riichi City/IRL mahjong - After getting demoted to Expert I went on an even worse losing streak for a bit, but I seem to be clawing my way back now. It’s just sample size, or so I keep telling myself.
Splatoon 3 - Grand Festival was rad. Not the Turf War part, Turf still sucks, but it was the second best concert I saw all week.
Partitioning is an advanced technique that takes advantage of leniency in charge input detection to do things you otherwise couldn’t. Exists in a few different games, 3rd Strike Urien is probably the best known example for heavily relying on it.
TFH is legit, one of the best fighting games I’ve ever played. Mechanically the closest comparison I’d give might be to call it a more grounded BlazBlue, just without a trillion system mechanics. It’s also one of very few Switch ports to have full crossplay, something even ArcSys apparently can’t figure out.
Team Future.
Anything popular enough that you can easily google any issues you need to troubleshoot. Beyond that it truly doesn’t matter.
There are two kinds of right-wing politicians. Grifters who will say and do anything for personal gain, and suckers who have come to believe it. Vance is just a grifter, make no mistake. And maybe at one point Trump built his empire through grift - he was a Republican in 1987, Independence Party in 1999, a Democrat in 2001, Republican again in 2009. But at this point Trump’s narcissism has led him to fall for his own grift, he does believe it.
You can actually tell with Trump that the one issue he doesn’t really care about at all but has to pander to his base with is abortion. And when you see how he flounders when asked about Roe v Wade, that gives you a baseline to compare to all the other shit that comes out of his mouth that he’s dead serious about.

Them’s Fightin’ Herds - Hopped on commentary for Glue Cup 2v2 this week. Need to make more time to actually start playing again.

Splatoon 3 - Oh boy, I gotta play Turf War all weekend. Yaaaaay.

Mahjong Soul/Riichi City/IRL mahjong - Remember when I said I was done grinding this game mode and wouldn’t do another run?
Splatoon 3 - Haven’t touched Salmon Run since the last Big Run and I’m clearly rusty. Apparently 173 wasn’t even top 20% on this map, damn. At least I finally killed a Triumvirate.
I love everything that Fedi stands for, I wouldn’t still be here if I didn’t.
But it’s hard to shake the feeling that I’m mostly posting out into the void. I’m not optimistic about Fedi’s future, I think at this rate Bluesky is going to win even though they’re clearly only paying lip service to federation. Maybe if they can demonstrate that their federation works I’d consider trying a third party server, but it’s clearly not ready yet, and leaves a sour taste in my mouth as yet another corporate thing pretending not to be.
Ever since I swore off Reddit after the API fiasco, and ever since I left the one Discord server where I used to feel like I fit in, it’s felt harder and harder to find alternative places where I can talk about my most niche interests, because nowhere else is big enough for it to be likely I’ll find anyone else who also wants to talk about those same things.
I don’t think Fedi will ever be that for me. The one thing I can say for Cohost is that at the rate it was going, I was able to find a lot more posts relating to my hobbies and fandoms, and I kinda regret that I didn’t post more and lurk less.
It just sucks to feel like there’s nowhere else on today’s dying internet to go that will suit my needs.
Assuming you’re playing proprietary games, I’m not sure why Steam also being proprietary is a step too far for you.
Anyway if you’re playing games with low enough spec requirements to run on an iGPU, they’ll just run, no extra steps needed. Distro shouldn’t matter either.
Damn. Hadn’t actually posted there much but I did lurk quite a bit.
Just feels like every attempt at alternative social media is dying as the internet shrinks to a few corporate websites that control everything.
When I point out that it’s bad for Afghanistan to “go broke”
Except that isn’t what OP actually said. Now who’s having a rich disagreement with people in their head?
This thread started with vilifying the Taliban, you responded with “oh you want people to starve?” Obviously, this is not a direct response to what they actually said.
All anyone said was that the Taliban is bad, and you’re very weirdly up in arms about that.
Under Night In-Birth II [Sys:Celes] - Goofy clip of the week
Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike - Friend came to visit from out of town, played some casual 3S for a little while. Also managed to rope him into trying out Waku Waku 7 and Twinkle Star Sprites as I wanted to show off some fun hidden gems in my collection.
Mahjong Soul/Riichi City/IRL mahjong - Remember when I said I was done grinding this game mode and wouldn’t do another run?
Splatoon 3 - Haven’t touched Salmon Run since the last Big Run and I’m clearly rusty. Put up a 173, which is gold, but I know that gold target isn’t actually much, especially on this map. Still can’t kill a damn Triumvirate, which is what I really wanted.

Huh, surprised they’d actually release the original Cosmo Gang over Pac-Attack. I actually didn’t know there was a SFC version, I thought all the home ports were Pac-Attack.
