I understand what kind of analogy you want to bring, but that'd be both a false equivalence, as wall as an appeal to pity.

You are trying to portray a black and white picture about a situation we all know little about. It's word for word, and in such case it be hard to give more credits to either party.

I heard that there is a lawsuit brewing, maybe this will give us more objective informations.

In the meantime, the only way to see if either the founders or Krafton vision would be the best would be to release the EA, even with the lack of content Krafton is complaining about. Like that we would be able to make our own conclusion.

I would partially agree. No cloth can protect you from strong wind. In such case, I work from home 😅.

But that's like... once or twice a year.

In which case we'll juge in the final product if the choices the leadership, previous or current, were the right one or not.

All we have currently are some images, some first hand infos, and a lot of speculations.

Well, that's exactly what I do since last year. I use an electric bike (converted from a mechanical one), and if it takes time, it is actually faster than taking my car (40 minutes vs 1h+).
And I do it even in the winter, when we get bellow zero temperatures. I just dresses warmly.

Edit : The bike (Le Petit Porteur Longtail, wasn't yet electrified at the time of this picture)

LW is hosted in Germany, and as it proxies youtube thumbnails, youtube serve him the german version 😅. It is a known issue.

Honestly I liked a lot Subnautica 1, and despite the leadership change, still look forward to Subnautica 2. Better juge on the product than on internet dramas.

4260mAh, as shown above. Should have been 4200mAh, but I supposse all batteries have a little bit of reserved capacity.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I'm currently trying IodéOS (LineageOS with some tweaks), which has this in his settings.

I unfortunately don't remember that option on my stock FP4, but there are tons of battery checker app out here which would give you those infos.

Here is one : https://f-droid.org/packages/com.dijia1124.plusplusbattery

I mostly used /e/os, so no slow charging, nor battery limit (until recently). I'm still leaning toward upgrading to the FP6 (still hesitating), this phone will either become my rom testbed, or my mother phone once hers die.

"We got together with Ross Scott of Accursed Farms to discuss the Stop Killing Games initiative that he is presently spearheading. The Stop Killing Games initiative aims to preserve games in a reasonably playable state even after the game's publishers and/or developers abandon it, helping ensure consumers keep some level of what they have paid for rather than having all access revoked and the game destroyed."

If you are a citizen in the EU or UK, don't forget to sign the Stop Killing Games petition!

"Stop Killing Games" is a consumer movement started to challenge the legality of publishers destroying video games they have sold to customers. An increasing number of video games are sold effectively as goods - with no stated expiration date - but designed to be completely unplayable as soon as support from the publisher ends. This practice is a form of planned obsolescence and is not only detrimental to customers, but makes preservation effectively impossible. Furthermore, the legality of this practice is largely untested in many countries.

Over the past year, we have succesfully escalated complaints on this problem to consumer agencies in France, Germany, and Australia, and have brought forth petitions for new law on this problem to various countries. A list of the actions taken to date can be viewed here. As of 2025, most consumer action on this matter has concluded and we are awaiting decisions on it from several governments. However, there are a few remaining avenues left where people can participate if they are eligible!

Hi everyone.

It has been a while since last community update, as the old moderation team mostly vanished, and I was for a while the only moderator still active. A lot happened since then, and it is time to get the community back running at optimal pace.

New moderators

First, I'd like to welcome two new (temporary) moderator, that will help me moderating while we reform the community and examine permanent moderator applications.

  • u/JonsJava : You may already know him as the moderator of [email protected], a video game focused community
  • u/[email protected] (and its moderation alt, فكسومت مدمر العوالم, aka u/modfxomt)

If you wish to help moderate this community, feel free to PM me in order to candidate to be a moderator for this community.

Sidebar rewrite

I took some time to rewrite the sidebar to better reflect the community evolution.

I added two new section:

  1. "Authorized Regular Threads", which are allowed to be post on a regular basis as long as they respect the rules
  2. "Related communities", which contains links to other games related communities. Feel free to PM me to add more of them

I also added links to a git repo to each rule, which point to the current ruleset. Currently all of them points to the same root anchor, but in the near future, every rule will point to their specific section. This will allow to give a lot more detail, as well as examples, without polluting the sidebar.

Community contribution

As a community, I'd like to encourage users to participate in the community. We are not meant to be monolithic, like Reddit was, and we'd like to offer the community the way to better itself, according to its own rules, not some corporate greedy interest.

As such, I'd like to offer you all way to make it your own, with a more democratic approach to moderation. In the following weeks, I'll post multiple topics about it, from which we will collectively amend our rules to better fit its collectively defined purpose.

This will be done in multiple steps :

  1. First, we will open a discutions on current rules, in which we will be able to discuss about them, suggest improvements, and maybe create new rules
  2. The rules will be then internally rewritten in order to respect the community wish while still following LW rules
  3. The new rules will be individually put to vote. If the total is positive, the rule is adopted, if not, the rule will be bought back in a new discussions/amendment topic, until it reach consensus

Best regards,

u/Dremor

Edit 1 : I continued my work on the sidebar, feel free to give me your feedback on it.

Congratulation, you are being upgraded. Please do not resist. And pay while we are at it.

It was at first, then they became a for profit organization, Xamarin, who was bought by Microsoft.

It's a RISC they are not willing to take.
