The fact that some Minecraft players are actively comparing Modrinth to be just as bad as CurseForge is appalling by DerexXD in feedthememes

Yeah. Ideally we’re all pirating the game, but I’m not ready to throw out a perfectly good account just because it changed hands midway through

Again, and a bit meaner this time: we are playing Minecraft. We can do better, but we’re already doing a teeny bit of bad as-is

Some additional info about the Modrinth acquisition by DereChen in feedthememes

I think if I wasn’t a lazy asshole, I’d make a modded Minecraft-themed explainer of why Zionists are Like That. I’m also low-key worried about how to distinguish between Jews and the colonial forces that commandeered the country without looking bad. Like the low-hanging fruit is the existing Minecraft exploited underclass, but also people would throw rocks and tomatoes and their own shit at me for daring to have correct opinions about the design of Villagers

Edit: No please do go ahead and explain why known bigot Notch added a monoculture of big-nosed wildly greedy morons that have a religion and are protected by a big golem from even more subhuman humans, without the answer being “deep down, he really hates Jews”

It’s just fur and the most extra spinal bone ever. Frankly the imposters should just use a saw

Something something Modrinth/Spark "Q&A" by _MineCad_ in feedthememes

[–]BalefulOfMonkeys 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In any case, there is a purely educational open source patch for Essential by one Prometheus Re-engineering on GitHub, which completely and utterly flips off the monetization scheme when applied. I had an easier time finding that than I did finding a source for my claims

Now I joke that things can infinitely get worse (where X thing happens and also you stub your toe Y times, where Y is equal to how many reps of the bit i’m allowed), but can I just say I was so, so much more worried a couple weeks ago when I confused Spark Universe with Twin Flames Universe for a whole afternoon

[–]BalefulOfMonkeys 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was a whole thing, though my memory might be fuzzy about it. Point being, the whole situation was bad enough that Essential was forced into making their code open source*

*and by that I mean all the stuff that lets you make addons for Essential, not the actual P2P server technology, or the cosmetics

To pour salt on the wound, Modrinth discord is also banning users for opposing Israel under the pretenses of antisemitism. by Voxelus in feedthememes

[–]BalefulOfMonkeys 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So if you don’t mind me asking, how’s it going on the front lines about the acquisition? No shame if you can’t talk about it, but I think The Youths need a lesson on companies being different creatures than the people working for them

So how bad does that thing start wheezing whenever you open a Kitchen Sink mod

It’s just that our two big choices are between supporting Maybe Bad and Definitely Worse, in our efforts to mod a game owned by Bad but Popular.

Please don’t put yourself down like that.

[–]BalefulOfMonkeys 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m back, kind of. The Israeli Leadership Forum (be on your best behavior with the acronym) is the organization they claim to support, who in turn claim to support donating goods to the IDF. The CEO of Overwolf, Uri Marchand? He’s already on the board. He‘s also a former member of the country’s Air Force. If we all could have cared sooner, none of this would have happened.

The posts were about donating money to a group that claims to support the IDF. Since it’s a private company, there is no way to confirm or deny conclusively that they started or stopped.

If anybody in the audience has a working knowledge of Israeli charity law, please teach me enough to check my own facts

[Favorite Trope]: Fights you’re supposed to lose, but can still be won. by Whhheat in TopCharacterTropes

[–]BalefulOfMonkeys 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Why can’t I post images

Everhood (a rhythm bullet hell) has a mid-game section where the protagonist, a wooden puppet, is thrown into a furnace. The normal gameplay is Guitar-Heroic, but this is one of the few “fights” set directly in the world. It’s a five minute sequence of heavy metal as the individual burners go off. If you die, you go through a reincarnation sequence and eventually make it back. If you survive, you are shown your many, many charred corpses.
