there used to be links to a carrd and a personal website here, but I stopped updating both, so they're gone now

abandonware should be public domain. force companies to actively support and provide products if they don't wanna lose the rights to them

[omikronsoul]

Game companies hate emulation, but none of them seem to understand that a lot of us would just buy ROMs from them directly if we could. I don't want a fifth remake of Final Fantasy IV, I want to pay five bucks for the 3MB file you already made bank with thirty years ago. Nobody who wants to play something for the purpose of retro gaming is going to consider a $40 remake as the alternative option, and we're certainly not going to let the original dissappear. They're crying about opportunity cost for a product they're not even selling.

op i know you're probably talking about like, video games, etc, but this is also critical for research science - my lab has so much abandonware, either because the company's out of business, or the company decided to not maintain it, and it's a fucking nightmare. we have two windows 95 computers that are CRITICAL for performing experiments/data analysis because the software needed is abandonware. one of the main roles for a guy in my lab is to maintain these little dinosaurs because if they go out, we lose access to ~20 years of raw data for research. part of why is that these companies also make their own file types, and make it difficult-to-impossible to convert those file types without their specific software. by habit, i convert all research files to more generic versions (txt, pdf, tif, etc) so that i minimize risk of losing my shit, but some stuff can't be converted.

for example, we have a microscope that is perfectly functional, good microscope, but its software is abandonware because the company refused to maintain it. the company is still in business, still makes essentially the exact same software, but they made all of the old tech incompatible with new software to force people to buy the new microscope tech. it would cost a quarter million dollars to replace this microscope. this perfectly good microscope.

so like, i know a lot of people look at the original post here and go "well op just wants old video games to play" (which is valid! games companies should not be able to push shit to abandonware and then close it off) but also this is critical for like. biomedical research. if y'all had any idea how much basic infrastructure built on science relies on shit that is technically abandonware, you would probably be horrified.

So... any of y'all keeping up with the whole Bricks & Minifigs debacle?

What an absolute dumpster fire lmao

[werewolf-cuddles]

There is a direct correlation between bigotry and stupidity. The reactions of people on Twitter to this new Fortnite character being named Dylan were very eager to prove that point.

Dumb motherfuckers see a woman named Dylan and immediately assume she MUST be trans.

CW for transphobia and transphobic slurs

It's end of May, yall know what that means

[pollsforadults]

You get transported into the universe of the last media you consumed. How are you doing?

This is better than my real life

I'm doing well

I'm doing fine

I'm not having a good time

I'm absolutely cooked

There is nothing different about this universe and my own

hey. if someone tries to smear you on the internet for something asinine, what you need to do is block every single person engaging with the post and remind yourself that absolutely under no circumstances are you obligated to draft a PR response defending some out-of-context screenshot or kink fanfiction or thing you said when you were 15 or whatever put your blood in the water. you are not a public figure or a brand. you do not have to respond to something if you know in your heart it is bullshit.

What to do if you get cancelled online.

Keep your cool, minimize the damage, and only make amends to those you owe it to.

Lots of good advice in the link above, but the one line that really sticks out to me: Don’t try to satisfy a public that is setting out not to be satisfied.

[theharlotofferelden]

All of the article is good, but I want to highlight this part in particular:

This has, more or less, been the case of pretty much every fandom space I've been in that's attempted to do some sort of Call To Action against a community member.

Even in cases where the reasons have been clearly listed, they either tend to bend the argument being made about the "poor behavior" in question, or undermine the overarching point they're trying to make by creating a grocery list of crimes and trespasses (that are typically less about informing people, and more about overwhelming and confusing anyone reading).

And none of this gets into how so many of these harassment campaigns employ DARVO against their targets to further ostracize them (and anyone associated with them) from participating in the community.
