Pretty sure we're already defederated from grad. We don't have an instances page yet where we could check, but that's been merged into kbin's code and should be available next time the site gets a version update.

I'm with Andrewism on the whole "left unity" thing. The left never was, never will be, and doesn't need to be unified. We can just collaborate (or not) with those of other political persuasions on a per-project basis.

The reason tankies push "left unity" is because they plan to be in charge of the unified left. Fuck that noise, we don't need it.

Reddit, since I never got into twitter. Also I don't think kbin currently has a way to just see microblog posts by people you're following, you end up seeing all the content from the hashtags of the magazines you're subscribed to. I think that would need to be separated to allow for twitter-like usage.

The irony is that if they were merely antifascists that were dunking on racists and transphobes, a lot of people would genuinely appreciate them. The tankie brain-rot ruins that though.

Don't you think you've created enough dead communities?

Unfortunately I don't have much in the way of good advice to give here. My game development experience is mostly limited to the project I posted in this thread, plus a number of ideas that I failed to actually start working on.

Obviously the US must have shut down the Beijing LGBT Center in order to make China look bad. C'mon guys, try to keep up.

Huh, that's cool. My own experience with this stuff is pretty sparse. I learned a bit of OpenGL 2.0 about 20 years ago, and never quite got to the point of understanding model files. My "models" were just arrays of 3d vertices that I adjusted by hand.

OpenGL 3.0 and onward are totally different from 2.0, so I had to basically relearn everything. Mostly I used these videos to get caught up, though I didn't get all that far in. One of them covers Blender OBJ model files, though that may be too heavy for your purposes. Are you just doing 2D? I'm not aware of any formats for that... SVG maybe? Also likely overkill. You might be able to make 2D stuff in Blender, but I've never used it.

I'm guessing that when you hear "socialism", like most people you think of state socialism. USSR, China, etc, as well as the various political parties trying to implement socialist policies through the electoral process. The socialist movement has always had a significant anarchist faction as well. Basically, things went like this:

  • State socialists: Right, we're going to do state socialism
  • Anarchists: That's going to go very badly, let's do anarchism instead
  • State socialists proceed to do state socialism, and it goes very badly
  • Anarchists: Okay, now that we all have the benefit of historical hindsight, let's do anarchism now?
  • State socialists: No, we're going to do state socialism again
  • Anarchists: Oh for fuck's sake

It looks like the post to personalfinance doesn't show up in the threads section of your profile, but it does show up in the overview. So that's weird.

Usually when a thread or comment fails to propagate to other instances, you can edit it to force a retry. Maybe that would help here.

In general, for bug mitigation:

  • Don't block any domains, otherwise random stuff will get hidden
  • After making a post, go to the "newest" view and upvote it so that it actually gets sorted correctly in the "hot" view instead of buried
  • The error that you get when posting doesn't seem to affect anything, the post still gets made
