@peterdrake It's not a bad game, nice to explore and see those ruins which you then explore and solve some puzzles. Eventually you'll have explored a bunch of those and get to a sort of conclusion.

@Krisss
Yeah, some Mastodon instances are modified, like Qoto.org. But there are also other type instances than Mastodon, like MissKey, CalcKey, Pleroma, Akkoma, which support higher character counts by default.

I've tried out some Space Station 14 with a buddy. It was interesting, it kinda had a MUSH vibe. Join a server, take on a role and then join the station. The game still felt a bit rough around the edges. Since we were new, we joined a fairly empty server.

Because I was an utter noob, a guy there was so kind to give me a tour and teach me how to use some of the machines. Now I know how to cook (cheeseburger and pizza), grow tomatoes in hydroponics lab, see what engineering looks like, a morgue, had a ride in the garbage disposal system, and uh.. an all around overwhelming bunch of information for me, lol. I probably should read the manual at some point. The controls aren't very intuitive at times.

I played as a lizard, which was hilarious when talking in-character, all those extra 'ssss'. Ekssstra sssssssss. 😋 When talking OOC, it was all normal again. Nice detail.

So it looks like this game is played in 'sessions', or shifts?, and in this case that took around 3 hours. Something in the end message about all zombies beaten, no infestations.. not that I ever saw any though. Just saw some mentions of anomalies over the comms. So I'm not really sure yet about the end goals and all that.

But for today I've seen enough. I've got information overload so I'll probably just go back to playing RimWorld now. SS14 is a multiplayer game (and you can host your own server) where you can play with like 100 people, so I can imagine it is a lot of fun when you and a fair amount of friends jump into the game and work together on this station. It's all free and opensource too!

@peterdrake Ah, bleh.

@auldlangsin Almost looks like a little pasture there.

Yesterday I added 11 mods, today the count is so far on 9 added. Might be more incoming. 😅 Thankfully adding mods is almost painless. It's still an interruption in gameplay though.

Finally hooked the Deck to the dock from job, and gave it a cabled connection. Streaming from the Deck to my laptop is way more snappy now.

@osfast Funny. I only have to be around. Somehow I fix stuff with my aura. I enter a classroom, teacher is like 'See, then I do.. wait.. wait.. it works now.. huh..' 😁

(Really happened waaaay more than once!)

@osfast Makes sense. If it is broken, break it more!

@osfast @sergeant Ik weet het niet.. ik denk niet dat een bikini hem staat.

I'm slowly getting into RimWorld again. Wait, no, not slowly. Dived deep into it last night. Slowly adding mods one by one though.
Some mods have already been integrated into core RimWorld (last time I played was during B18, so quite a long time ago, about 5 years I think?), so that's nice.

Already have had a colonist breakdown, she went completely insane as to dig up corpses and parade them around. I'm sure I'm going to witness even weirder events. 😋

Oh yeah, want to make the game really exciting? Definitely open up any Ancient Dangers you encounter! At least I did manage to save the cat!

@lydiaconwell (With a shit-toot I mean one breaking rules, like harassment. Not just a 'look at this jerk', heh.)

@lydiaconwell
I'd dare say a quotetoot is actually better than this what you now see. If you're quoting a person I've blocked, I'd see 'Message is blocked' or something like that. But with a link I don't know for sure whether I've blocked that person, and would possibly click on it to see what you'd be talking about, and then see stuff I don't want to see.

And most people on my server uses it to spotlight another toot, which has a bit more impact than a boost because a boost is only for their followers while a quotetoot is a brand new post with a link. More exposure.

I'd say... let the moderators moderate, and if it is a shit-toot, report it and let them actually do their job?

@lydiaconwell Yeah, if your server doesn't support it, you'd just see a link. Which is, by the way, all there really is to it. In essence a quote-toot is just your comment with a link in a certain style so that servers which do support it just uses little javascript/css magic to show it as a quote toot.

Never understood why people were so against it because anyone can post something and link to it.

@lydiaconwell You'd need to look if someone else has made this feature for your blog software. I know there's ways for Hugo for example.

@lydiaconwell This? https://qoto.org/@trinsec/110150472713039838

@lydiaconwell Already is for me, I used one yesterday. ;)

@szescstopni Well, I could stop faving altogether if you want. 😋
