cnnrduncan@beehaw.orgto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•What are your favourite open source games?3·2 years agoI’ve spent a solid 30-40 hours playing it since December last year so I’d say it’s pretty fun and playable! IIRC it has prototypes up to the interplanetary phase though only the single-cell and multicellular stages were really playable when I last gave them a go.
cnnrduncan@beehaw.orgto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•What are your favourite open source games?7·2 years agoI’m a big fan of Thrive!
It’s not the Pirate Bay logo so my bet would be that it’s representing internet piracy as a general concept!

cnnrduncan@beehaw.orgto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Looking for an ebook reader (hardware) which doesn't hold a proprietary OS1·2 years agoSo it’s basically just a Kindle but you don’t have to use an exploit to gain root access?
cnnrduncan@beehaw.orgto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•What non-FOSS software are you using that you wish you could replace?English6·2 years agoI prefer Organic Maps as an OSM Android App, I’ve found it to be a bit easier to use and more reliable than OsmAnd!
cnnrduncan@beehaw.orgto Chat@beehaw.org•What does everyone think of bots on Beehaw?English10·2 years agoIIRC there is already a bot flag on profiles, though it relies on bot-makers manually setting it and as far as I’m aware you can’t automatically block all bot users (though I haven’t tried every single Lemmy app).
cnnrduncan@beehaw.orgto Chat@beehaw.org•What does everyone think of bots on Beehaw?English18·2 years agoHonestly the only bot I’ve actually found myself missing is the metric/imperial conversion one, makes talking with Americans a lot easier!

cnnrduncan@beehaw.orgto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•What are your favorite non-foss apps?15·2 years agoValve and Steam have pulled their fair share of shady anti-consumer moves, like the time they violated Aussie and EU consumer protection laws with their refund policy (fucking EA Origin had refunds years before Steam); there have also been allegations of it being a toxic workplace with a trans former employee claiming she was referred to as “it” by her manager.

cnnrduncan@beehaw.orgto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•What are your favorite non-foss apps?35·2 years agoI think you’ve got a bit of a misconception about FOSS software - you’re allowed to make money selling it, you just also have to provide the source code to any customers! A fair few FOSS apps have free versions on F-Droid but paid versions on the Play store, for example.
