L’Occident meurt par la tête
Un précédent article notait que, d’années en années, les « élites » auto-proclamées (à peu près 1%) n’étaient plus correctement sélectionnées : ces élites, de plus en plus déconnectées de la réalité, imposent progressivement des réformes égalitaristes et une féminisation la société qui a pour conséquence directe d’imposer un conformisme étroit. Ceci provoque deux problèmes. D’une part, les […] ⌘ Read more

@prologic@twtxt.net I have no specifics, only hopes. (I have seen some articles explaining the GDPR doesn’t apply to a “purely personal or household activity” but I don’t really know what that means.)

I don’t know if it’s worth giving much thought to the issue unless either you expect to get big enough for the GDPR to matter a lot (I imagine making money is a prerequisite) or someone specifically brings it up. Unless you enjoy thinking through this sort of thing, of course.

各自精彩——《无敌号》原著与游戏情节对比
题记：我们是否应该为了船只遭遇海难而去鞭笞海洋？

（通篇高能剧透。想自己玩的就biè看。）

三年前的秋天，触乐登了一篇文章（ https://www.chuapp.com/article/287547.html），科普《无敌号》的核心科幻创意——能够自我复制的机器，同时为《无敌号》游戏作了一个简短的前瞻。

当时我很兴奋。因为在那文章发布之前几个月，我就把《无敌号》加入了愿望单，但我从来没奢望过会在任何游戏媒体上看到关于这个游戏的前瞻。这个游戏几乎是各种小众标签的集合体——波兰科幻作家莱姆、彼时尚无中文译本的《无敌号》原著、步行模拟类游戏、没有战斗、并非名门的开发商，总之看不出有任何卖座的可能性，哪怕文章发布十个月之后《无敌号》原著的中文版上市了也还是如此。

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci their main question is worrisome:

@prologic@twtxt.net Yes I suppose that is true. There is an article on Tailscale’s site that explains it all quite a bit: https://tailscale.com/blog/how-nat-traversal-works

To me, with CGNAT, it’s a small miracle that a direct connection can be made between peers (as opposed to going through a relay constantly) but it does indeed work. I guess to host it at home you would need to have it WAN accessible, and if you’ve already gone to the trouble of port forwarding etc… well 😅
Not that I could personally do that, but for those with static IPs etc.

二次元游戏的内在困境：服务型游戏为何在“服务”上翻车？
当一款游戏需要更新好几年甚至十几年的时候，它就会把能想到的手段都用上，打造一个大而全的世界，可这一切加深着人们的审美疲劳。

编辑丨熊宇

编者按：在 《二次元游戏的内在困境：怎么总在“切割”或“开除”？》 中，我们说明了“二次元”是标签而非游戏类型，这个标签可以吸引到更多的玩家，但也意味着玩家与游戏类型将会更加不匹配，同时在设计、剧情和人设方面开始受到“二次元”文化的限制。接下来，我们将继续讨论服务型游戏的特点如何影响了“二次元”游戏。

让我们再说一次：游戏分类是一笔烂账。
