    Yeah the criticism tends to go to extremes here sometimes. I remember one open source project being criticized just because some AI assisted commits were added and people were saying that it should be forked and shit just because of that.

    I’m definitely very against the way companies try to shove it down our throats and make use of it in ridiculous ways and destroy the environment by putting no limits to its use, but the problem as usual is the socioeconomic system behind the tool and not the tool itself.







  • Not at all, if anything it’s the least frustrating one. Every defeat gives you something to learn from, whether it was a huge blunder you made or just your general strategy and missed opportunities. It was all a direct result of your playing against your opponents playing, it’s probably the most balanced game ever made which makes sense since it’s been played for literally centuries.

    Other games like League of Legends, or TCGs like Magic or Riftbound for example, are unbelievably more frustrating. In online MOBAs you can just get matched with a team diff you can do absolutely nothing about and just have to wait until defeat losing your time in the process. And in said TCGs skill does play a role but it also has a lot to do with being lucky with your draws, having enough cards in your deck which cost money, or having spent enough time before the game to learn about all the possible cards an opponent could have or all the good combos you can make with your own cards, turning the game from a match of skill to a match of skill, luck, time and money all together.




  • Worth pointing out here that this is the mentality of the oh so authoritarian and scary communist devs of Lemmy, while the “anti-authoritarian” one is making sure to insert as much as possible of his personal bias hardcoded into the project and then lash out at random people for calling him out on it.

    Sorry to continue the infighting a bit but the contradiction here is just glaring. I appreciate your stance and the Fediverse would never be what it is without people like you





  • Open Street Maps based apps to be extremely lacking

    This should be more of a shared responsibility, it’s not an app’s fault but the simple fact that OSM lacks a lot of information in many areas. That’s why it’s so important to contribute to OSM even a little bit, just mapping your own street block and nothing else is already a huge improvement.
