For the eagle eyed people out there, the map is 2 communities short. The basic script I wrote couldn’t find them.
is it possible those communities have been deleted?

yea, when I open the community in Boost it's empty there too
just to note:
this hides the community from searches unless you put in the exact community ID
https://programming.dev/search?q=news&type=Communities&listingType=All
this also hides the comments inside posts from the community, unless you are subscribed, even if you browse to the post directly
I think this should maybe be considered a bug? anyone agree? I can file the bug report on Github
EDIT: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5390
Fediverse Observer keeps a list of NodeBB instances that have federation enabled
Right but it's not a well-known feature of Lemmy, so people won't know that
the title of this post sounds more serious than it actually is, maybe the title should be modified?
maybe just add "unless you subscribe"?
This doesn't look good lol, but I'll still watch it...
Mario vs Sonic at the top of a list. What year is it?? Feels like the early 90s again lol.
Heavy modding of older games PC can be a pain in the ass.
Sometimes the older games are the easy ones to mod, and the new games make it intentionally difficult. Doom, Duke Nukem 3D, Quake, Deus Ex are all mod-friendly.
It can also depend on how much work the mod developer puts into making it easy.
(I notice you have an MiB as your profile pic and Deus Ex's Liberty Island skybox as your profile banner lol)
(Because mods compete against sequels or something?
yea sequels, expansion packs, and DLC
Finally we're at the SC2 world championships, a 5 day long tournament, with a $1mil prize pool; $400,000 for first place!

Happy 25th anniversary to System Shock 2 (I'm actually a day late, oops!). One of the original Immersive Sims, and precursor to the BioShock series. This has much more RPG elements than BioShock does, and an inventory grid.
Wikipeda Synopsis
System Shock 2 is a 1999 action role-playing survival horror video game designed by Ken Levine and co-developed by Irrational Games and Looking Glass Studios. Originally intended to be a standalone title, its story was changed during production into a sequel to the 1994 game System Shock. The alterations were made when Electronic Arts—who owned the System Shock franchise rights—signed on as publisher.
The game takes place on board a starship in a cyberpunk depiction of 2114. The player assumes the role of a soldier trying to stem the outbreak of a genetic infection that has devastated the ship. Like System Shock, gameplay consists of first-person combat and exploration. It incorporates role-playing elements, in which the player can develop skills and traits, such as hacking and psionic abilities.
System Shock 2 was originally released in August 1999 for Microsoft Windows. The game received critical acclaim but failed to meet commercial sales expectations. Many critics later determined that the game was highly influential in subsequent game design, particularly on first-person shooters, and considered it far ahead of its time. It has been included in several "greatest games of all time" lists. In 2007, Irrational Games released a spiritual successor to the System Shock series, titled BioShock, to critical acclaim and strong sales.
System Shock 2 had been in intellectual property limbo following the closure of Looking Glass Studios. Nightdive Studios were able to secure the rights to the game and the System Shock franchise in 2013 to release an updated version of System Shock 2 for modern operating systems, including for OS X and Linux, and announced plans to release an Enhanced Edition of the game. OtherSide Entertainment announced in 2015 that they had acquired the rights from Nightdive Studios to produce a sequel, System Shock 3, but as of 2020 the rights have since been transferred to Tencent.
