Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Was that supposed an anti paywall link or something

Seems like a broken signature hyperlink to me.

Nope, it works.

Edit: By "it works" I mean the link can be clicked on. If the formatting looks wrong, check to see if the client you are using supports subscript/superscript fonts.

From Mbin, it looks struck through, lol

Its formatted properly, per Lemmy's web page.

Its using subscript/superscript fonts, so you might want to double-check if your client is supporting those fonts properly or not.

Subscript: ~subscript~ ~subscript~
Superscript: ^superscript^ ^superscript^

If the above does not display correctly, you need to talk to the devs of the client that you are using. I'm using the Lemmy web client.

Looks like Lemmy has decided to use a flavor of Markdown which is inconsistent from Mbin's. That's a shame.

Weirdly enough, different Lemmy Android clients for Lemmy also work differently with the scripts formatting, each having their own quirks. One person though did fix their problem by upgrading their client app to the latest version.

I had thought it was all one single standard, when first started using the formatting. My original intent was just to have a smaller font, as I was at first just using the link format without any subscripting, but people were complaining about that, so I was trying to compromise and make it smaller.

Would a link to a license on a comment will prevent someone from using your comments in a data model? I have doubts.

Nope. Its a Creative Comments license for my comment.

For any particular reason?

I get that question asked frequently, so I’ll just point you to this comment from me, which explains. …

https://lemmy.world/comment/9744090

Otherwise, the description of the link is sufficient to get an idea of what its about.

If most of your comments are defending the link that everyone is laughing at, and you know it doesn't do anything, you might just want to ditch it.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That isn't how anything works. This is like those people on Facebook posting their voodoo chainmail posts about their comments and profiles. You don't own your comments to transfer a license in the first place.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Are you a lawyer? You have some citation to back that up?

I am an excellent shower singer.

Now, if you are done trying to avoid the question, lets try again. I'm really curious as to your citation. ...

I know that you are incorrect, but I'm willing to hear your evidence to the contrary. ??

He thinks it’ll actually do something.

It will not.

What is the Anti Commercial-Al license and why do people keep adding it to their comments?

 “I DO NOT GRANT PERMISSION TO LAW ENFORCEMENT TO READ THIS COMMENT. ANY USE OF THIS COMMENT BY LAW ENFORCEMENT FOR ANY REASON IS ILLEGAL. THIS COMMENT CANNOT BE USED AS EVIDENCE AGAINST ANY NON-LAW ENFORCEMENT PERSONS IN RELATION TO ANY CRIME.”

Like I told you before. That's not a link to the license, the page itself says so!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Like I told you before. That’s not a link to the license, the page itself says so!

Thats the canonical version of the license.

The legal version is linked directly from there, as well as here.

My declaring my comments as licensed by CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 means its licensed. Its your responsibility to read the full license to comply, not mine.

Aha, so you actually read it? Thanks for clarifying.

So you didn't reach the conclusion that this license is incompatible with posting on Lemmy?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Aha, so you actually read it? Thanks for clarifying.

I have. Both versions. I was just linking to the easy to read version (canonical), but by declaring my comment as licensed means it is covered by CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, and you can get to the legal version from the canonical version.

So you didn’t reach the conclusion that this license is incompatible with posting on Lemmy?

Are you a lawyer? No? Well then be sure to come back here once you get your degree and let us know the final word on this.
