@scruiser @BlueMonday1984 funny how they mock left wingers for «that wasn't real communism» and then come up with the same excuses for liberal democracies and capitalism whenever one points out all the shit that came out of that. It's really ALWAYS projection with them, isn't it?

Arguably it's because they can't ensure the same (or higher) level of compatibility with newer versions of dosbox or scummvm (e.g. because of regressions). It's still possible to use newer dosbox/scummvm with the games they provide by hacking around the launcher and/or just using the installation elseways, but it would be nice if this was supported at the installation package level.
@kathsone @macfranc @fediverso sono pronto a scommettere, pur essendo stato abbastanza assente in questi ultimi giorni, che posso indovinare almeno una delle istanze coinvolte al primo colpo.
@Solumbran @JigglySackles there was a particularly heavy handed show off when visa and Mastercard were going after adult games on other platforms in a «but them before we're forced to delist them», but other than that I don't remember them being pushed particularly strongly
@anarchiversitario @politica OK, ma «fascista italiano espatriato lecca il culo al nostro governo» non suonava altrettanto bene.
@anarchiversitario @politica ricordiamo peraltro che nei Paesi come l'Uganda le recenti leggi che criminalizzano l'omosessualità sono frutto pesantemente di cristianissmi “gruppi di pressione” statunitensi

con le stesse radici evangeliche che oggi si trovano lí al potere e stanno smantellando, oltre alle fragili conquiste LGBTQ+, anche i diritti delle donne eterosessuali (aborto, divorzio)

@scruiser there's no winning with these guys. I had a similar experience with someone bringing up South Korea as an example of country that brought itself up by its bootstraps via unfettered capitalism because “planned economy doesn't work”, so I had to remind them that SK was a military dictatorship who implemented 5-year plans leveraging billions of foreign investment that was given to it by US to prop it up against NK.
