Looking for a PeerTube instance for game devlogs.

I have a crafts channel on makertube.net already but would prefer to spread myself around in case one server goes down. Also tbh I'm not even sure devlogs would count as "making" anyway.

Tried the instance finder on the PT homepage but it's pretty useless so if anyone knows where is stable and welcomes this kind of content I'd appreciate it! Thanks.

For anyone reading this thread in the future:

  • A couple of devloggers are already on diode.zone although at time of writing that instance wasn’t taking new signups
  • I did get a couple of DMs about invite-only instances too, which seemed legit and stable enough but they just weren’t for me
  • In the absence of other compelling instances, I checked with the admin of MakerTube and they confirmed gamedev counts as “making”. So I just stuck with there in the end and we’ll see how it goes🤷‍♀️

Ik dacht altijd dat ‘you’ in het Engels hetzelfde is als ‘jij’, maar nu lees ik (in een boek van Lydia Rood) dat dat vroeger juist de beleefdheidsvorm was naast ‘thou’, dat is verdwenen, behalve in het Schotse dialect.

@fifischwarz @lalage @schoudaan @boeken Ik ben verbaasd over de overeenkomst met het Nederlands . En ook weer niet. Vast van voor de invloed van de Franse taal.

Dat viel mij ook op ja. Het laat goed zien en horen dat Engels van oorsprong een Germaanse taal is.

@Vecna What did you think of the book? Been looking at this series after I finish The Scholomance series by Naomi Novik.

@TiffyBelle @bookstodon I thought it was fine - nothing super special, but I enjoyed it enough to move onto the second one.

Couple of twists - saw one of them coming and not the other. Book 2 looks as though it will go into the magic more than Book 1 did - which is the bit I'm interested in with most series. :)

It goes without saying that what Hamas did was morally abhorrent, but every time you see a tower block in Gaza being destroyed by an Israeli missile on the news you are watching children being killed, injured, or made orphans. 😡

@Melinda @john1954moi I read a book in the late 70s.I have never been able to find it again. I believe it was written in the 40s. called something like "Night Music" and I think it was written by Lily Palmer?
Anyhow the story took place in Serbia? A young reporter comes on the job. He can't understand why they keep fighting this endless war. He ends up staying with a woman and her child. He becomes emotionally entangled and eventually realizes that they are also involved in fighting. 1/2

@Melinda @john1954moi When they are killed in the fighting he picks up a gun and joins the fight.

Reading that book gave me much better insight. It was brilliantly written. I wish I could find it again. 2/2 @bookstodon

People here have resorted to taking screenshots of your twitter account and posting the images here. I humbly suggest moving your social media off of twitter. We love you here. And we have better moss and bird photos.

Re Drew Barrymore crossing the picket line:

Remember that once non-WGA writers cross the picket line, they won't be able to join the union later, should they want or need to. It's worth reminding them of this.

@romancelandia

seem to have reached a tentative agreement for a new collective contract.

Here's the message, shared on twitter by Adam Conover (of "Adam Ruins Everything"):
"We did it. We have a tentative deal.

Over the coming days, we'll discuss and vote on it, together, as a democratic union. But today, I want to thank every single WGA member, and every fellow worker who stood with us in solidarity. You made this possible. Thank you.

Lemmy Admins Are Full Of Shit. They Are Obsessed With Having Power, Silencing Users, Banning Users, And Want To Use A Karma System Like Reddit To Restrict Your Ability To Use Lemmy.

I know I'm being dramatic here, but something just hasn't been sitting well with me ever since I started using Lemmy.

There's just this feeling I get here that the admins have a fucking agenda. And I could be wrong. But I hate bullshiters who won't tell it like it is.

More people need to call admins out on their bullshit. It's getting fucking ridiculous.

And I'm tired of the fucking arrogant attitude that some how running a server and being an admin makes you important in some way as if you're going to be the next elon musk or something. Get over yourselves.

It really feels that there is an ulterior motive based on what I see in the matrix chats.

Admins are not being transparent about there motives.

I'm on pretty much all of the lemmy matrix chats, and all they talk about is restricting the users experience, banning, defederating, purging accounts when they ban them so the user doesn't see why they were banned, and any everything that will put them in a position of power.

I also feel like they have accounts on all the other instances and post other bullshit trying to push their agenda and make these changes seem like a good idea.

Admins, quit fucking bullshitting like you're trying not to be like reddit. Yall seem to wet your panties at the idea of basically being in complete and total control of everything and Ban who ever you want based on your political ideologies.

I'm sure their are some who are not like this.

Im sick of this morally superior attiitude and sense that your beliefs and actions are of greater virtue then everyone else. Yall are smugly moralistic and intolerant of different opinions and its fucking obvious.

Stop being fucking deceitful and tell the goddamn truth.

Please explain to everyone your intentions.

This is just one of many. I attached the rest here. I apologize for any duplicates.

Jonathan Frakes on Directing Next Generation, Lower Decks

This interview goes assorted places, but it has a small interesting bit about next year's Discovery finale.

“I directed the first half of the finale of Season 5, which turned out to be the real finale... And then [‘Discovery’ executive producer and director] Olatunde Osunsanmi had to go back up and do two or three days of new stuff to actually make the finale the finale." https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/jonathan-frakes-star-trek-director-strange-new-worlds-lower-decks-crossover-1235680140/

@billmason @porthos @startrek I don't think that CBS had all the rights to all ST properties. Today CBS, Viacom and Paramount are united again, but not before end of 2019. For example: https://gizmodo.com/star-trek-discoverys-version-of-the-enterprise-had-to-1825276401

billmason OP ,
@billmason@mastodon.social avatar

@deafmutex @porthos @startrek Yes, the right to the first 10 movies at that point belonged to Viacom, who made them under license from CBS. But that's neither here or there to what Discovery was doing.

Also, the story that the Enterprise was changed in Discovery because of rights/legal issues has been debunked. https://comicbook.com/startrek/news/star-trek-discovery-enterprise-design-legal/

Cost them my Paramount sub. And I told them that if I was gonna subscribe to a service, just for Star Trek, it darn well better have all of it.

Reminds me of the original series, cancelled right before they started tracking demographics, only to realize it was hitting all the right buttons and they’d killed the golden goose.
