  • Yeah I hope IRC sees a renaissance again. The late 90s/early 2000s IRC scene was a major vibe. But so was the internet in general back then.

    I got on IRC recently to see how things were these days and everywhere I went was really dead. Felt like a shadow of its former self.

  • Federation Delays
  • Man if you look at this thread on Kbin and then again via another instance like Fedia, there are number of comments not federating across both instances. Kbin counts 24 comments and Fedia just 19. The missing comments on Fedia seem to be Kbin users. There's some comments in here that are upwards of 8 hours old that have not made it to both instances. This is really problematic.

  • Federation Delays
  • Yeah the comments are not federating across fedia/kbin. I'm only seeing your comments on this thread when you've posted them on the server I am currently viewing. Even 8 hours after you commented.

  • Federation Delays
  • I'm a big fan of Kbin but the project is a total mess right now and kbin.social is always down or only partially working. And there's next to no communication about what's happening.

    I don't wanna do it but it might be time to pull up stakes and figure something else out.

  • I've had it with reddit
  • I used to mod two pretty large subs (iirc something like a combined ~400k subscribers) and we had no way to detect ban evasion other than the user being stupid and obviously giving themselves away (eg. "fuck you mods, I'll just keep making new accounts"). This was fairly recently and I left the site and quit modding about a month after they pulled the API bullshit and booted Apollo and other apps.

    So unless reddit added additional tools for mods, your story doesn't quite add up here.

  • Nintendo is suing the creators of Switch emulator Yuzu
  • Yeah and none of the switch emulator stuff I've seen comes bundled with the firmware. You have to track that down separately or dump your own from your Switch.

    This sure looks like like a slapp suit to me.

  • Here's why the $3,500 Apple Vision Pro headset is so expensive
  • Totally disagree with you. VR even in its currently pretty early stages is an absolute blast. Some of the most fun I've had gaming any time recently has been on a Quest 2. And I grew up on 8 and 16 bit consoles so I've been through the gamut of gaming experiences.

    When the technology does another 5-10 years of advancing it's going to be absolutely huge.

    And to your point about old people not getting tech, my grandmother and mom both love VR and play games and do workouts on Quest together. They actually use them more than I do.
