Yeah, sadly that is what teaser trailers do.
I do trust them to make it good based on their previous work.
This looks *amazing*! We cannot wait to be terrified and exploring the depths, possibly in multiplayer this time (if the trailer is anything to go by).

According to wikipedia, no: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_polygamy#Asia_4
We suspect this is why the term "partners" was used and not "wives".

It isn't that new. It was made in 2022.

Phones are the way a lot of students learn and focus nowadays.
They shouldn't be taken away, lest their ability to do those things drop.

We hope they succeed.
'Managers' need to see more consequences, not the people who do the actual work and are less likely to be the ones making the mistakes.

Sure, happy to.Though I recommend reading through the rest of the wayfarer series first to get more context.

Not making any decisions and just using the polyamory mod instead. XD

All I am saying is that if the goal is to get people to use open source software (which it seems like this post is about and a lot of the discussions are too) then developers would need to make things which worked for people and listen to their feedback.
If that is not the goal and folks in this thread are happy for people to continue to use closed source software because it has more funding and thus better UI/UX, or just it is more in their interests to make things that appeal to people regardless of funding then that that is okay.
However, there seems to be a ideology where people evangalise open source software to folks yet ignore all of its flaws and tell them not to use closed source software that just looks and works better (arguably not all of the time but in some cases this is accurate).
So either we can have things that work for people, or we can have open source but not both all of the time because either open source devs cannot afford to make it so (which is understandable) or do not wish to.
This is the main point of contention I have been trying to get at but have not been putting very well until now.

This is fascinating. It reminds me a lot of Disco Elysium.

No, that isn't really what I'm talking about.
Sure, code quality matters.
I'm talking about things like mastodon trying to push a certain outlook upon its users just because the main dev thinks they should be using it a certain way, and hating how people actually use it.
It's funny how you resort to personal insults to me even though I have not really to you. It's true there are a lot of punctuation rules I do not understand. However, I would point out that this is not an english test, so it doesn't matter.

Sadly, I am a writer, not a coder.
I have tried, but it never really stuck for me.
I can plan things out, know how they will work, but actually programming it is very unlikely.

There are two problems there:
One is that not all open source developers accept payment, this is accurate, we have come across some that refuse to be paid for their work and not everone has the money to pay for it.
This forces, we believe, people back into the freemium etc model. So really there don't seem to be a lot of good solutions here, which seems to go against the original post.
Either folks somehow pool together to have enough resources to pay open source devs, we put up with whatever they decide to do, we create a new movement focused more around what the community wants or we go back to corporations, most will probably choose the latter as there's less tension there.
Something to think on.

Correct, it is jaded. We have watched a lot of devs become worse and worse over time, ignore perfectly reasonable and useful requests or instead of implementing an already existing solution to a problem find a workaround to that problem instead which then goes on to not work forever.
So, if open source developers do not want to do the work, which is fair then either we have to create a new movement that is more community driven, or go back to corporations which the latter at least seems like not a great situation to be in.
So something we have been thinking about recently is the 'first is special' toxic idea of like it's better if some{one/many} does a particular thing with some{one/many} first before any others or just before some{one/many} else even if they aren't the first and how to stop thinking this way. Do y'all have any ideas/suggestions on how to do this or work on it (slowly)?
This is a *really* great watch about how people often make a big deal out of nothing and like to create an agenda of us vs them when really they don't know what they're talking about. Dives into NPD a bit, but mostly it's about the made up idea of every{one/many} being a 'narcissist' nowadays.
So excited for this!
We were wondering if the docs etc here could be rewritten in such a way so as to not call all of us human since some of us are not. Much like being transgender, being otherkin, alter{human/being} or transspecies can have a lot of dysphoria attached to it and we have had to at least explicitly tell one person on lemmy that we are not human even though it is in our profile. We think that being more inclusive is always a good thing and will gladly work with those who can edit the docs etc in order to find more inclusive ways to say what needs to be said without misspeciesing any{one/many}. Thanks for reading this and we hope this finds y'all well.
I have looked through the app I use (mlem) and the web interface but I can't figure out how to give a link post an image, as when I try to put something into the image section it replaces the link. So how is it done exactly? Is this some setting, special script or app feature I don't know about? Or have I missed something?
A *really* good video that gets into the whole ridiculousness of autistic/'aspie' supremacy and having a us vs them mentality around NTs vs NDs, and how doing so causes harm especially because then the assumption is that all NTs and all NDs are the same, which is factually incorrect.
Recent some kind creatures have treated me exactly like what I am, offering me things and treating me as very small, and the amount of euphoria it gave me was incredible. So have any of y'all had species euphoria from being treated like what you are? If so would you like to share the details of what works for y'all?
I am *very* excited about this, although a bit saddened to see they're still doing it as an 'episodic' release game. Maybe that's better for funding or something however, I thought game developers had moved past that?

Is full instance blocking as a user unavaliable because it's not in the version this instance runs or has it been disabled? If it's the latter could it be enabled? As there are some instances I'd like to block as a user that don't necessarily need to be to blocked from an instance perspective (though maybe they should be). If it's the former, any idea how long before y'all will update to a version with it in? Thanks!
Hi I was wondering what folk's here liked most in terms of neopronouns for first, second and third person. If you don't know what that means: - First are things like I/me - Second are things like you and y'all - Third are things like they, she and he
