Isn’t that a bit too much like beating a dead horse?

Lifetime jail + lifetime jail for X generations of offspring, depending on severity?

Or instead of jailing children at birth, maybe just confiscating X yachts, depending on severity.

Games?

That seems like a good idea.

You missed an S in enShittification.

And I completely agree, Cory seems to be good at coining terms and making them stick 👍

A winning strategy 👌

I think we need to look a bit back in time for the answer:

“If they pay a penie or two pence more for the reddinesse of them…let them looke to that, a foole and his money is soone parted.”

Yay, space opera! 🥰

Highly recommend almost everything by Peter F. Hamilton if you haven’t read them, arguably top 3 space opera authors ❤️

Edit …: and Boo! Google!

Had the exact opposite happen once — playing Risk with a group of friends, one guy ends up completely dominating the board. Almost everyone is out, just him and one other person left.

Everyone wants to either start a new game or go to a pub, but he still hasn’t won. We ask him several times if he’s accomplished his goal yet; he hasn’t.

He drags the game out by an additional 3 hours, and finally wins. Turns out he had won some 4 hours earlier, and “forgot” or “misunderstood” his objective. In reality, assholes just wanted to try to take over the whole world, and thought we wouldn’t insist on seeing the objective card afterwards.

We banned him from participating in any and all games. For life. This was some 25 years ago. I haven’t seen him for 10+ years, but to the best of my knowledge, nobody from that particular friend group (around 12 people) ever let him participate in any games again.

Well… ‘bout time for me to be hittin’ the old dusty trail!

Thank you! I may just take you up on that, but think I need to read some how-to’s first 😁

I’ll see if I can’t figure it out, think it’s mostly a question of lacking available time to get into it properly 👌

Always make a backup! Hopefully, they remembered the 1-2-3 rule 🤔

Ooh, that’s good! 🤯

Are you sure you responded to the correct comment? 🤔

I tried setting up Audiobookshelf in Podman on my ancient Mac mini recently (now running Fedora x KDE), and turns out I don’t know the first thing about running “dockered” servers/apps and absolutely couldn’t get it to work 😅

Ah yes, the John Waters strategy! ❤️

Wow, that looks great! I was beginning to think you’d missed my comment, or, worse, that it was too annoying 😅

Happy you managed to translate the acronyms and found some of it helpful; I spent way too much time on it 😅

Think the changes are really good! Being allowed to enter words that don’t live up to the dot requirement really takes a lot of friction out of it and makes it so much more enjoyable!

Looking forward to seeing future updates, keep up the good work!

I actually stumbled upon a small issue: in Chrome on my Android phone, I’ve enabled a flag to force dark mode, and it doesn’t play nicely with the game. An edge-case for sure, but might be worth looking into. See screenshots below 😊

• Chrome Dark Mode flag enabled, game in Light Mode:

Agreed, which is funny because he’s an intelligent guy, and I wouldn’t normally take him for someone who’s fall for this type of confirmation bias, but tech is a blind spot.

Also, I think he sees me as someone who is overly cautious (for one thing, there are some differences in opinion about how my wife and I raise our kids), which probably means that because the warning about his IT setup is coming from me, it’s already somewhat tainted by that.
