  • Does it really matter though? “Well you see, they didn’t actually see you naked, it was just a photorealistic approximation of what you would look like naked”.

    At that point I feel like the lines get very blurry, it’s still going to be embarrassing as hell, and them not being “real” nudes is not a big comfort when having to confront the fact that there are people masturbating to your “fake” nudes without your consent.

    I think in a few years this won’t really be a problem because by then these things will be so widespread that no one will care, but right now the people being specifically targeted by this must not be feeling great.


  • Thanks for the answers. I guess that was not clear from my post, but I do not want to expose anything to the internet. All I want to do is tidy up the urls to the services for clarity. I have no issue with installing Tailscale on every device I want to access my services with. I can currently access any service just fine by doing “tailscaleIP:PortOfService”, but that is kind of unpractical. So by using my domain and Cloudflare DNS I changed it to “mydomain.com:PortOfService” which is already better, but means I have to look up what port the service I need uses. Like I said in my post I’d ideally like “nameOfService.mydomain.com”, no ports. And yes I realize this is purely for convenience/aesthetic reasons. Apologies if my words are not clear enough.



  • I would disagree with the choice of words here, yes their stories are often not super deep or intricate, but I do believe they are extremely interesting, specifically because they are presented in such an appealing way.

    Just the elevator pitch for Hades sounds amazingly interesting, “you are the son of Hades fighting his way through procedurally generated dungeons to escape hell”, fuck yeah! Tell me more!

    And the impact is definitely there as well, because while depth is missing, the qualities you described make what little story there is quite impactful.

    Of course this is all just my opinion, but you can’t tell me that “you participate in ritualistic basketball games to free your comrades from a prison wasteland” doesn’t sound interesting.








  • Soo, anyone got any game recommendations? Lemmy already has so few comments and social interaction (the only reason I visit sites like these) so why dilute it even further by focusing on pointless stuff? I swear every time I see a good post and am excited to see what people have to say about it it’s 90 percent pointless arguing in the comments.

    Although I suppose I just contributed to it as well, so carry on I guess.


  • This seems like it was thrown together in a few hours by a bunch of people that have no idea about game development except that you can make money off it.

    It’s always kind of funny to see these companies make cryptic announcements about games that tell you nothing except that the game may or may not come out at an unknown date. This only works if you have a huge fan base and ideally an existing franchise, like with elder scrolls or GTA, but when I see this kind of stuff it just makes me go “ok cool” and I keep scrolling. You’ll have to impress me first before I start swooning over fancy animations.
