@gamingonlinux our org did a big watch party (some of us even hanging out together in a hulouse up in manchester) and... gosh heckie, the whole weekend was made of pure hype - also worth noting that the concept of Linux support is brought up regularly, and with support from the dev team, who also want that to happen :)

Yeah, still digesting yesterday's #StarCitizen #CitizenCon2953 stuff, and... damn, this is some amazing stuff, both great things just as features for the game, but also how they're implementing it is How I Like It Done. An example being the new starmap stuff, which while it looks great and will help the game play better, it's also done as a live render, not a specially built extra geometry like a lot of games do, which, vital for a game of this scale. An example, but a representative one :)
Heading up to Manchester today to hang out with a bunch of people from our #StarCitizen guild Cornerstone. Oh, and also i guess we're going to watch CitizenCon together, that's also nice ;)
Yesterday patch 3.21 dropped to Live, and they just casually popped a referral bonus in there as well, so if you've been pondering on pledging, there's that bonus, and a good deal on a couple of starter packs right now. i've popped all the details in my usual post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizenreferrals/comments/17c732o/starf3v9nvlk_for_5000_uec_free_lti_cnou_hoverquad/ :)
@Saki not the 2, but we've got a 1 and it's excellent :)
Sign to stop the proposed EU law to deploy surveillance infrastructure capable to monitor all our comunications.
Apparently I got reported today for using the #Alt4me tag and not being blind. I was told by multiple people on Mastodon that if I didn't have the energy to do alt text for every image I could use this tag and someone would do it for me.
Instead I got reported to my instance owner. You all need to make up your fucking minds what is acceptable and what isn't if you want people to stay on mastodon. As it stands, I don't feel comfortable posting images anymore because if I don't have the energy to write alt text then I get shamed, if I used #Alt4Me I get reported
You people make it so tiring that for someone like me with ADHD and Executive Dysfunction it is much easier to just not use Mastodon to post any images!!!!
I'd also like to touch on how people always shame others with "invisible" illnesses. I cannot escape it. Just because I am sighted does not mean I am not disabled in some ways. But people can't see ADHD and executive dysfunction, so I just get their personal diagnosis of 'LAZY'.
I can tell why artists aren't flocking here in droves.
I don't know what I am going to do going forward but I feel pretty fucking uncomfortable posting any images to Mastodon now lest I be shamed or reported or fediblocked because someone didn't like whatever about my posts.
Thanks for that.
Boosts highly encouraged I think everyone should see this.

Well damn - happy birthday #StarCitizen and happy hunting to everybody out there going out to find yourself a CIG developer in-game to try and get a free F8C Lightning!

I'm suing to force the UK to allow nonbinary people to be legally recognized as such, starting with me. The trial is in 25 days.
I need £97,334 to cover estimated costs — anything I don't raise I will have to pay out of pocket.
