  • Private servers are not always a viable alternative option for players as the protections we put in place to secure players’ data, remove illegal content, and combat unsafe community content would not exist and would leave rights holders liable.

    Incorrect. Only in a capitalist hellhole like America. In the rest of the world this would never be a problem. Just release the server code under MIT and let the community fix it. Also make sure you can manually setup a masterserver in the game itself, or implement direct connect functionality.

    many titles are designed from the ground-up to be online-only; in effect, these proposals would curtail developer choice by making these video games prohibitively expensive to create.

    Same answer as before. Release the online part under the MIT license. Not your problem anymore at that point. You can still require an original game license for the game itself. We’re only talking about the server software here.

    We welcome the opportunity to discuss our position with policy makers and those who have led the European Citizens Initiative in the coming months.

    We, the people, have been discussing this for at least a decade now. Get over it and stop trying you capitalist pigs.



















  • a fucking llm can see it based on description alone.

    Even Copilot says it’s not good:

    “is it smart to rename Remote Desktop (for Windows) to “Windows App”?”

    That would probably create more confusion than clarity! “Remote Desktop” is a specific tool that allows users to access a different computer remotely, while “Windows App” is an incredibly broad name that could refer to any application running on Windows. If Microsoft were to rename it that way, people might struggle to understand its purpose at a glance.
