二次元游戏的内在困境：服务型游戏为何在“服务”上翻车？
当一款游戏需要更新好几年甚至十几年的时候，它就会把能想到的手段都用上，打造一个大而全的世界，可这一切加深着人们的审美疲劳。
编辑丨熊宇
编者按：在 《二次元游戏的内在困境：怎么总在“切割”或“开除”？》 中，我们说明了“二次元”是标签而非游戏类型，这个标签可以吸引到更多的玩家，但也意味着玩家与游戏类型将会更加不匹配，同时在设计、剧情和人设方面开始受到“二次元”文化的限制。接下来，我们将继续讨论服务型游戏的特点如何影响了“二次元”游戏。
丨 服务型游戏，做不好服务？让我们再说一次：游戏分类是一笔烂账。
我曾经尝试在Steam库中给自己的游戏进行一整套严格的分类，希望创造一个秩序井然的世界……但我失败了，有的游戏似乎需要扔进多个分类，有的游戏却好像塞不进任何分类，最终，这个分类 … ⌘ Read more

1. 魔法门之英雄无敌一:战略任务（1995)
刚上大学，啥也不会，周末风度翩翩的学长带着大家玩，最简单的地图天府之国，拿了个农民的称号。学长看了后说你一个兵都不想死还怎么玩?他给我示范了一下，他的称号是精灵弓箭手。这里面人族偏弱，同学常称之为粑粑堡。最好的体验是野外一队游侠或者阿拉丁神灯（属于顶级5级兵)加入你的队伍。一般部队只带4个，留一个空格，这样有几率让野怪加入。印象深刻的兵种是狮鹫，可以无限反击，还有九头蛇，可以群攻打周围一圈敌人，配合传送术效果极佳。只有四个种族，野蛮人，移动不受地形影响。骑士，士气+1。女巫，航海移动力+3。男巫，?

我是一个福瑞控，2023年借《有兽焉》的热播写了一个关于福瑞的理论专栏文章。后来下半年的时候也作为分享学者参与了中数音像协会的一个有关福瑞的分享活动，但是我要说但是，那时候我其实并没有真正去过任何的兽展，我只是凭借自己朴素的对福瑞群体和福瑞动画的感知去完成的文章。
直到2023年12月31日参加了云幽岛福瑞展，亲眼看到了线下兽展的样子，能够亲身摸到那些毛茸茸的兽装，同时能够亲自买下摊位的那些小周边，我的感受出现了非常大的转变，虽然都是正面评价，但正是因为这个亲身性，才让我有了全新的感知，由此形成的两个不同的文章可以看：

@sorenpeter@darch.dk this makes sense as a quote twt that references a direct URL. If we go back to how it developed on twitter originally it was RT @nick: original text because it contained the original text the twitter algorithm would boost that text into trending.

I’m also more in favor of #reposts being human readable and writable. A client might implement a bottom that posts something simple like: #repost Look at this cool stuff, because bla bla [alt](url)
This will then make it possible to also “repost” stuff from other platforms/protocols.
The reader part of a client, can then render a preview of the link, which we talked about would be a nice (optional) feature to have in yarnd.

An official FBI document dated January 2021, obtained by the American association “Property of People” through the Freedom of Information Act.
This document summarizes the possibilities for legal access to data from nine instant messaging services: iMessage, Line, Signal, Telegram, Threema, Viber, WeChat, WhatsApp and Wickr. For each software, different judicial methods are explored, such as subpoena, search warrant, active collection of communications metadata (“Pen Register”) or connection data retention law (“18 USC§2703”). Here, in essence, is the information the FBI says it can retrieve:
Apple iMessage: basic subscriber data; in the case of an iPhone user, investigators may be able to get their hands on message content if the user uses iCloud to synchronize iMessage messages or to back up data on their phone.
Line: account data (image, username, e-mail address, phone number, Line ID, creation date, usage data, etc.); if the user has not activated end-to-end encryption, investigators can retrieve the texts of exchanges over a seven-day period, but not other data (audio, video, images, location).
Signal: date and time of account creation and date of last connection.
Telegram: IP address and phone number for investigations into confirmed terrorists, otherwise nothing.
Threema: cryptographic fingerprint of phone number and e-mail address, push service tokens if used, public key, account creation date, last connection date.
Viber: account data and IP address used to create the account; investigators can also access message history (date, time, source, destination).
WeChat: basic data such as name, phone number, e-mail and IP address, but only for non-Chinese users.
WhatsApp: the targeted person’s basic data, address book and contacts who have the targeted person in their address book; it is possible to collect message metadata in real time (“Pen Register”); message content can be retrieved via iCloud backups.
Wickr: Date and time of account creation, types of terminal on which the application is installed, date of last connection, number of messages exchanged, external identifiers associated with the account (e-mail addresses, telephone numbers), avatar image, data linked to adding or deleting.
TL;DR Signal is the messaging system that provides the least information to investigators.

I’m not super a fan of using json. I feel we could still use text as the medium. Maybe a modified version to fix any weakness.
What if instead of signing each twt individually we generated a merkle tree using the twt hashes? Then a signature of the root hash. This would ensure the full stream of twts are intact with a minimal overhead. With the added bonus of helping clients identify missing twts when syncing/gossiping.
Have two endpoints. One as the webfinger to link profile details and avatar like you posted. And the signature for the merkleroot twt. And the other a pageable stream of twts. Or individual twts/merkle branch to incrementally access twt feeds.

I will release the sourcecode for the desktop client tonight. I will put it on github (sorry to anyone who prefer other places), but the reason is that I do not want my own git to be open for public. So I’ll put it on github where I have all my other public projects. I have to write the readme, then add some info on the login page (link to source etc), then it’s ready to release with the current features. I then hope others will give it a try and use it if they want :) I also have many other features I need to implement, but all the main features that makes it usable has been implemented, so I’m very pleased with it (And I use it all the time now).

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, good point. I will see if I can selfhost it in a good way, I’ll think about it for the next days, I’ll also create a subdomain on my website where I can put some info and git links and what not, nice to have a info page to link back to from the application.

Some things of note, links mostly:
First and foremost, I found a suitable pinboard replacement in link hut! Shout outs to my buddy Bruno for the tip.
Here’s a bookmarklet I wrote to make it a bit more ergonomic for how I like to roll,

I have cleaned up the timeline a bit, I like this much more.
I use the markdown text now, instead of the ‘text’ field in the json file, looks much cleaner.
I can work with this. One thing that I want to sort out next is the way the nicknames and url is shown.
Also links in posts should be clickable - not sure if the current labels support that, but I’ll try and figure it out somehow. Anyways - latest screenshot is attached here.. :)

Did some more work on the timeline stuff today, now I have added parsing of each status, so that I can get the data I need from each status (user, image url, text, links - all that stuff I need).

I currently use Purelymail for email. It’s very cheap and does everything I need (“purely email”). I’m also happy that I’m free of all the headaches of having a good IP reputation and setting everything up so that my mail doesn’t end up in junk folders. ⌘ Read more

@prologic@twtxt.net short version: context is a linked list that is passed down a call stack that can share timeout, cancellation, or other data as needed by lower functions in the call stack.

@lyse flawed is the right word, no harsh at all. Good reading, and thanks for supporting the possibility of convincing @prologic to switch to a database! :-D :-P

Like, check it out. That link to DRY? It doesn’t render as a link in the webapp. However, it does render as a link, and works fine, in Goryon. I’ve seen before that Markdown tables render fine in Goryon but not in the webapp. They ought to behave as similarly as possible, right? So just in this small interaction there are three discrepancies between how the mobile app and webapp render Markdown.
Here is how platforms die: first, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die. Pluralistic: Tiktok’s enshittification (21 Jan 2023) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow
H3: Instead of C3
[Updated with correct Gemlog link.]
A version of this was posted on on 2023-01-06 but I thought it might
also fit here. Go to my gemlog for somewhat more personal takes and
see what I publish first. IPv6 only!

As long-time readers know I have participated in the Chaos
Communication Congress (C3) in Germany every year since 2008.
Since C3 was cancelled this year I thought I’d arrange a very small
conference of my own. I would at least try to gather some friends and

@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de this is the default behavior of pass on my machine:
I add a new password entry named example and then type pass example. The password I chose, “test”, is displayed in cleartext. This is very bad default behavior. I don’t know about the other clis you both mentioned but I’ll check them out.
The browser plugin browserpass does the same kind of thing, though I have already removed it and I’m not going to reinstall it to make a movie. Next to each credential there’s an icon to copy the username to the clipboard, an icon to copy the password to the clipboard, and then an icon to view details, which shows you everything, including the password, in cleartext. The screencap in the Chrome store is out of date; it doesn’t show the offending link to show all details, which I know is there because I literally installed it today and played with it.
I posted about GoToSocial, but another Mastodon-alternative and Fediverse software, Takahē, seems to make fast progress and has some unique features like support for multiple domains or multiple identities per user. I haven’t tried running it yet, but it looks promising! ⌘ Read more

@xuu@txt.sour.is that doesn’t seem to fit the spirit of the spec, at least by my read (I could be wrong obv). The example on Wikipedia’s webfinger page,
{
"subject": "acct:bob@example.com",
"aliases": [
"https://www.example.com/~bob/"
],
"properties": {
"http://example.com/ns/role": "employee"
},
"links": [{
"rel": "http://webfinger.example/rel/profile-page",
"href": "https://www.example.com/~bob/"
},
{
"rel": "http://webfinger.example/rel/businesscard",
"href": "https://www.example.com/~bob/bob.vcf"
}
]
}
and then the comparison with how mastodon uses webfinger,
{
"subject": "acct:Mastodon@mastodon.social",
"aliases": [
"https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon",
"https://mastodon.social/users/Mastodon"
],
"links": [
{
"rel": "http://webfinger.net/rel/profile-page",
"type": "text/html",
"href": "https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon"
},
{
"rel": "self",
"type": "application/activity+json",
"href": "https://mastodon.social/users/Mastodon"
},
{
"rel": "http://ostatus.org/schema/1.0/subscribe",
"template": "https://mastodon.social/authorize_interaction?uri={uri}"
}
]
}
suggests to me you want to leave the subject/acct bit as is (don’t add prefixes) and put extra information you care to include in the links section, where you’re free to define the rel URIs however you see fit. The notion here is that webfinger is offering a mapping from an account name to additional information about that account, so if anything you’d use a "subject": "acct:SALTY ACCOUNT_REPRESENTATION" line in the JSON to achieve what you’re saying if you don’t want to do that via links.

@prologic@twtxt.net That was exactly my thought at first too. but what do we put as the rel for salty account? since it is decentralized we dont have a set URL for machines to key off. so for example take the standard response from okta:
# http GET https://example.okta.com/.well-known/webfinger resource==acct:bob
{
"links": [
{
"href": "https://example.okta.com/sso/idps/OKTA?login_hint=bob#",
"properties": {
"okta:idp:type": "OKTA"
},
"rel": "http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/issuer",
"titles": {
"und": "example"
}
}
],
"subject": "acct:bob"
}
It gives one link that follows the OpenID login. So the details are specific to the subject acct:bob.
Mastodons response:
{
"subject": "acct:xuu@chaos.social",
"aliases": [
"https://chaos.social/@xuu",
"https://chaos.social/users/xuu"
],
"links": [
{
"rel": "http://webfinger.net/rel/profile-page",
"type": "text/html",
"href": "https://chaos.social/@xuu"
},
{
"rel": "self",
"type": "application/activity+json",
"href": "https://chaos.social/users/xuu"
},
{
"rel": "http://ostatus.org/schema/1.0/subscribe"
}
]
}
it supplies a profile page and a self which are both specific to that account.

Trying to wrap my head around webfinger..
my first thoughts about it were that a subject of acct:me@sour.is would have a listing of rel’s for the different accounts that are related to me (ie. yarn, salty, twitter, mastodon, etc…)
but maybe my thinking is at the wrong level.. that each of those accounts would be on a subject level and the rels are describing different aspects of that account. so i would have salty:acct:xuu@sour.is, twitter:acct:xuu, mastodon:acct:xuu@chaos.social, yarn:acct:xuu@ev.sour.is and then i could have a main acct:me@sour.is that links them together as aliases.
I found okta will do something similar with its accounts to show as okta:acct:user@domain so maybe I am on to something?
