I just implemented new paths for villages in #Repixture. Also, houses neatly fit into the forest without destroying the trees or landscape (well, usually …😅).
There are still a bunch of bugs, but I'm getting there. 🙂
Fun fact: The paths use the same pathfinding algorithm that villagers use.

Quick reminder that the term "open source" is NOT limited to mere source code availability:
▶️ https://opensource.org/osd
This is the official definition, maintained by those who invented and popularized the term.
I personally prefer the term "free software" over "open source". But it annoys me so much the fake definition ("open source only means access to source code") is so common these days.

The enemies of #privacy always have an excuse:
"Yes, storing a screenshot every 5 seconds sounds scary but it's okay because it helps you #recall things. 🤡"
"Yes, scanning your RAM sounds scary, but it's okay because we use that for #anticheat. 🤡"
What's really is scary that we're at a point were we made #SPYWARE socially acceptable simply because the authors are from "well-respected organisations" rather than "evil hacker groups".

Experimenting with a new tree in #Repixture: The fir.
Fir wood will be the darkest wood in the game, and will be notably darker in painted form.
I plan to eventually add some kind of mountain biome, where the firs grow.

#Exile is one of my favourite games in #Minetest, even if it is still incomplete. It's all about survival in a strange land.

Apparently the #SciHub censorship in #Germany is "just" a #DNS block, so it's not very elaborate.
But that's not the point. The point that people even *DARE* to do this type of censorship in the first place. This is #evil and wrong.
This is the result of #copyright ideology taken to its extreme. But I don't think this is the end point. #Copyright maximalists want to further and further a commercialized, expensive Internet only for the privileged few.

In #Repixture, I've taught villagers the ability to escape most water hazards and some situations in which they are stuck. I also gave them new clothing.
The whole mobs update takes way longer than I hoped because there are so many edge cases.

Today I've created a new pathfinder for #Repixture. The game engine I use (#Minetest) already has a built-in pathfinder, but it lacks features. The downside of my pathfinder is that it is slower, but I compensate that with support for asynchronous execution.
My pathfinder is able to detect climbable nodes, jump restrictions, it's possible to tell the pathfinder which blocks it can and can't walk through. All things the built-in pathfinder can't do (yet).

When a nation "bans #TikTok", it is not really banning TikTok. It is banning its *citizens* from TikTok. The "ban TikTok" movement is a pro-#censorship movement.
I'm pro-#FreeSoftware, so I'm now in an awkward position. I have to both condemn and defend TikTok.
Condemn, because it's an awful #proprietary #spyware that has direct connections to an oppressive regime and I think it should not be used by anyone ever.
I also feel obliged to "defend" it in that I hate #Internet censorship.

@npub1vgp…hv8t I hope the NYT will lose. What they are basically trying to do is to enforce copyright on ideas (which are generally not copyrightable).

I believe that #FreeSoftware #development needs free software #tools.
I’m tired of all the excuses for injecting #proprietary software like #GitHub, #Discord, #Transifex, #Slack, etc. into the development workflow. What's the point of making free software then?
We *do* have good free software tools available, we just need to use them.
Projects like #Forgejo show us exactly how it's done. Free software all the way, no compromises, no excuses. 👍
This is exactly the right direction.

Personally, I'm now kind of neutral on whether #Mastodon instances shall block #Threads.net. Given the userbase of Mastodon is much smaller (For NOW! 😛), blocking is mostly a virtue signal IMHO.
BUT! I also think all the #corporate #proprietary networks can go F themselves. 😈
I think promoting #FreeSoftware and exposing the dirty secrets of #proprietary software overall is much more important in the long run than focusing on only 1 specific thing.

#Google is trying again to convince you, YES YOU, to contribute for free to Google Maps.
Please don't.
It is 100% #proprietary, Google has full control over the data you added and people can only access Google Maps over proprietary channels where Google dictates the rules. This gives them too much power.
Contribute to #OpenStreetMap instead, it's a project by the community, for the community.

@npub185n…luq0 Und genau deshalb traue ich URL-Shortenern nicht über den Weg. Es ist ein völlig unnötiger Single Point of Failure, ein Server, der bis in alle Ewigkeit laufen muss, sonst geht alles den Bach runter.
URL-Shortener sind die größte Grütze ever. Die existieren meines Wissens praktisch NUR wegen Twitters Zeichenlimit. Lächerlich.
Mastodon hat das Problem elegant gelöst, inden einfach jeder Link eine konstante Zahl von Zeichen »kostet«.

To summarize my work on mods in the last few days for the A.E.S. #Minetest server:
* Quikbild bugfixes
* TNTRun, Tnttag polishing (particles, sounds)
* Balloon Bop GUI + scoreboard improvements
* Fixed ugly tooltip for Skywars kits
* Made many mods more translatable
* German translation updates
I think I was quite active. :D

I've just released a new version for X-Decor-libre, the #libre decoration mod for #Minetest. I was annoyed with all the bugs this mod still had so I went on a bugfixing spree for 2 days and I think it should be pretty stable now. 🤓

I also used to think #transphobia is fake but this is only because mainstream media doesn't give you the full picture. Once I started to listen to trans people more and more, I realized my #delusion.
Here's an introduction to transphobia:

#Genocide #denial is not harmless:

@npub1vud…460v Very pro-freedom of you for being in favor of literally banning completely harmless words because reasons.

If I had a #Twitter account, I could get #BANNED for defending the use of the words #cis and #cisgender (which just means "not #transgender"). And I'm cis myself. 🤦
In other words #ElonMusk may have accidentally declared war on 99% of the population, including himself. 🤣

Not trying to be a buzzkill but apparently dessalines, the main #Lemmy developer, is a ... #genocide denier?!
#denialism
https://raddle.me/f/lobby/96713/heads-up-the-tankie-behind-lemmy-ml-got-banned-from-r
Unless new info emerges, I cannot recommend #Lemmy in good conscience. Federation doesn't fix this IMHO because being a main developer is a high position and it also affects non-dev things like donations.
For this reason, I wish to distance myself from #Lemmy.
#FreeSoftware is great but no excuse to ignore other issues.

Despite all the complaining, I actually like #Mastodon so far. A lot. Finally a social network with a sizable user base AND it's free software.
I clearly prefer it 1000 times over all the #proprietary BS that has been all over the web for a while. And people just use it to talk. Cool stuff.
Maybe Mastodon is actually a much bigger boost for the #FreeSoftware movement than we actually realize by now.

2023-06-17 09:47:48

Many people have been talking about deleting their #Reddit account and posts because they hate what the Reddit CEO does.
While I welcome a major #RedditExodus (I never posted on Reddit because it's #proprietary), I urge people to #backup their high-quality posts (those that have helped a large number of people) before they delete their account for good.
And then repost your high-quality stuff somewhere else for archival purposes.
Just a suggestion.
