Did you recently invite your relatives to have some and send your kids to the movies?

They will cry about political targeting. I guarantee it.

Everything this article says it's true. Google needs to be forced to stop giving money to Mozilla. It's driven the org into the ground. When the decision supposed to be made? October? I hope Google loses and Mozilla wakes the fuck up.

Word. I find it difficult to talk about capitalism here because most responses are "capitalism bad" with no afterthought, just parroting some meme. There are more nuanced opinions here than on reddit and popular social media, but not as many as there should be. And the anti-centrist memes have definitely caught on here, where trying to find a middle-ground, a place, manner and tone to talk to each other is mocked.

It's definitely better than reddit here, but it could be better.

I don't get why loops requires registration. It feels like an instagram pattern and I really dislike it.

Not even then. Don't want to get shot for looking "unamerican".

It's clear that game developers are going to lobby this thing and hard. It can't be a "grassroots" movement anymore hoping on the support of some big names out of the kindness of their heart. It needs some "professionalisation". It can't just be "Ross and his invisible army will handle it" anymore.

  • a website with
    • a list of public names supporting the movement e.g "supported by these companies 'Game developer A', 'Game Developer B', 'Preservation Group A', 'Preservation Group B', 'X number of individuals from country A', 'Politician A', 'Politician B', yada yada yada"
    • the representatives of the movement (not just Ross, but those on the names of the initiatives and so on)
    • a "how do I get involved" section
      • ways to donate and where the money is going
      • how to join internally (a private forum or group)
      • material to spread if not on the inside like links, images, and videos
      • calls to action
      • whatever else you come up with
  • coordination and a game plan
    • who is doing what with whom and when
      • Member is talking Game Preservation company for sponsorship
      • Member is coordinating with community to have a protest in front of UK parliament on some date
      • Member is having a meeting with Members of Parliament to get support
      • and so on
    • a group of designers and artists making content for the movement
    • publicly available research to refute existing and possible claims made by lobbying groups and naysayers

Maybe organising watch parties for them would be great to show how many people care about "Stop Killing Games"

Share them here with how to contact them. It's possible that a larger voice will show that it's important.

Ross, in his video with GamersNexus mentioned that games nowadays have expiration dates. I think that's a great way of framing the issue and making it clear to gamers what should change.

Unfortunately, I do not have a good idea how to present the problem of "Games today have expiration dates" to people in a succinct manner. My image editing skills aren't good, so spamming various communities in different images to make them aware of the issue won't really work. Does anybody have ideas?
