Thanks (and thank you @Metz@lemmy.world for asking). I was hittin’ Google trying to figure out why this was a sentiment, other than just because CAD, and it was just returning what I already knew: CAD is BAD.

Thank you.

It gives them the moral and legal right to do whatever it is they’re doing. Don’t you know that your* signal light is a magical “you have to let me” charm? And by “your” I mean “just theirs”.

Obvuously, they took the eagles!

Missed opportunity to show the progression from 8.5" floppies down.

I feel this. My group is 3 players, and 2 are 11. There may as well be 30 of them

Champion update came out in July

Just to be clear, publishers don’t like reviewers, either. They’re seen as gatekeepers of audiences and people to be managed and bribed, and that means keeping the reviewer market small. They want reviewers to be PR people with a fascade of being impartial, and few enough to count on one hand.

This is also somwthing that’s happening, then, because Nintendo sees a pathway to victory. Not only are their games licensed only for their own hardware, but they can claim the reviews are misleading and invalid because the games aren’t designed to run on the platforms they’re beinf reviewed on.

Like, none of this is Nintendo coming for your emulation catalogue. It’s them coming for people trying to generate an income from their games. And all of the big publishers are going to line up behind them on this, because they also hate anyone who’s making coin using their creation.

That’s capitalism. That’s what it means for something to be capital, and to own it. It’s what owning the means of production is all about.

This is not about the legality of emulation, unfortunately, but about whether people have the rights to publish lets plays without a license.

Many suits in the gaming industry see lets plays as theft. They see people making money using their games and believe lets players should have to pay to license thst content, and that they should have the right to revoke that license if they don’t like what people are saying about or doimg with their games.

I work in the industry, and I know people who work or who have worked at studios owned by every major punlisher in the west. This is a thing they all habe someone of import chomping at the bit for.

It’s just that none of them want to be the one singled out as the first or only one attacking lets plays. Nor to be the one that shoulders the costs of having their position challenged in court.

Not who you replied to, but I’ve experienced it on both vanilla Element and on Schildichat over and over, as well as repeated logouts that require signin approval from one of my other active sessions.

That are on devices on different floors of the house, or even in different parts of the city.

Shit’s jankey as hell.

By the way, the spell does not allow for divorce - it’s strictly “till death do us part”.

Which has… consequences

Yeah, uh, so, I used to be a galactic warlord…

FWIW, it’s not a starter set, it’s a playtest. It’s stress testing things, and leaning on Pathfinder assets. You’re not missing out on the full meal deal right now.

I don’t know, this is starting to sound like a separate discussion with separate issues, and as a result it feels like goalpost moving.

The issue with women’s fantasy armour has long been that it exists for the Male Gaze, as a trope that is propagated by men for the purpose of titilizing men. It’s objectifying the female form, and doing so in a way that does not include women in the discussion at all.

The second image, instead of being a continuation of that, just feels like fashion, and complaints about it land as “no one has ever cared about aesthetics in a suit of armour” which is a totally false take and indefensible platform.

Weirdly enough, language largelt evolves independently from other species.

Then the OP just rented the software.

Adobe should pay more than the inflation-adjusted price - multiples of it, even - so that the repayment is actually punative.

That creative endeavor: A 5e clone with Blades’ progress clocks slapped on top of it.

There’s value there, it’s just not in convincing the person you’re responding to. Speak to the other people reading their bullshit. Nonsense starts to look legitimate if it’s not challenged.

I kind of suspect this was an attempt on the IA’s end to get parts of copyright struck down by court ruling. Laws can be clear and still found to not be in the public’s interest, or in violation of some other legal doctrine, and sometimes you’ll see groups come at them sideways.

Ownership laws are really tough ones to chip away at, and IP law in particular has been getting worse and more unassailable over time.

Sure, but if you install DR, then you have DR to do other things. Like chase that YouTuber dream, or field annoying calls from your great aunt who knows you can edit videos to digitize her parents super 8 family videos that are have rotten.
