Here's my proposed rules to fix major league baseball:
1: a player can only play for a team if they were born in said teams city or have been resident for at least 10 years before signing
2:player salaries by dollar amount are out, player salaries by 1% increments of parent corporations total revenue are in, no player makes less than 1% of the parent companies total revenue a year
3: the immediate establishment of teams in at least 4 other countries in south and central America #mlb #baseball
The latest member of my #Psion family arrived today, another Series 3 classic 256k. I've installed #Barbarians on it, along with Ground Attack, a flawed but fun strategy game I started developing in 2011 and gave up on finishing properly a few of years back. You can get it from its temporary home of http://damian.cyningstan.org.uk/downloads/216/ground-attack-3000 (I plan on creating a proper home for my Psion games eventually).
hell, even tools like Shinigami Eyes are subject to that now. it used to be generally pretty obvious why a given person got Red-Named there, but now you could sift through pages and pages of replies and not find anything, leading to suspicion that someone got red-flagged without cause and nobody thought to question it.
if i have a need for that kind of information now, i will probably defer to the lore-keepers of the community and not rely on an unchecked List or Plugin.
the Blocklist is one function of social media I'll never use, there's just too much potential for abuse and misfires. i feel like one must be a deeply unhappy person to run one like that
i feel like i have to laugh about this somewhere: i decided to check clearsky to see if i was on any blocklists on bsky, found i was on an "anti-gamer bro" list. looked up the user who created said list and checked out which lists they're being blocked by, and found they're being blocked by their own list (on top of a bunch of other ones intended to block far-right-wingers and other assholes).
i invoke Nelson Muntz:

๐พ NEW PODCAST!๐พ Who hasn't enjoyed a nice round of golf on their computer? The slowly rendered trees, the random bird chirps, it's just like being outside!
We've done multi-game episodes before, but this one is our most ambitious yet, as no fewer than 50 games were discussed on our forums.
Some are text-only, some have all the multimedia features, but all are about golf!
