OrbWeaver removed his Github account ?

"Social Justice Warrior". People who go online to monitor political correctness, compete in "oppression olympics", and get offended as a profession.

There is a crew of SJW users at Github who are getting accounts banned by claiming that Github users are offending people with "hate speech" which

could be inclusive of such insensitive terms as "fool" "idiot" etc... Welcome to the brave new world...

C'mon. Threads are more fun. You can speculate. Can you speculate in a PM? I thought not.

One of my theories has always been: Nothing on this world (but nothing at all) can reach a large scale without sooner or later being infested by human stupidity and fanaticism. GitHub is showing this in action: Instead of being a platform where people host code and work on projects, it's now letting itself dragged into people's childish frustrations and internet wars, over things that don't even have anything to do with what the site is about! The sentence "this is why we can't have nice things" has never been truer... GitHub is a stain on the face of open-source programming after this.

 

In any case, I'm looking to get the latest source code for DarkRadiant. Does anyone know where the GIT repository has migrated please?

 

[EDIT] Never mind, found it. It has moved to the civilized lands of GitLab: https://gitlab.com/orbweaver/DarkRadiant

It's a widespread problem in Silicon Valley at the moment. It has even affected the UN, which seems to have decided to give up on bringing peace to the Middle East in order to campaign for internet censorship to protect the delicate feelings of Patreon-supported professional victims.

Although my repository has been moved to Gitlab, it is worth mentioning that Greebo's repository (which is where most recent major development has happened) remains in its current location on Github. I suspect most Windows developers are following Greebo and therefore do not need to update their Git URLs.

That is so ludicrous and unlikely, even I'm not going to waste energy worrying about it. But it's one of those things that strongly enforce my feeling that at a large scale, humanity is just a race of chimps only with cars and computers. I hope people don't find that statement offensive as it's not meant to be such... it's just legitimately difficult to feel otherwise, when people like that are everywhere and infest everything they touch with their stupidity, even things completely unrelated to whatever problems they have and barge in everywhere to bring up.

 

More importantly for the time being, I checked out your Gitlab repo and am compiling from it now. I'd like to setup a remote from Greebo's as well, but can't find him anywhere on Github. Anyone got a link please?

Humans are stupid, have always been stupid, and always will be stupid. Yet, here we are. If you don't like something, by all means fight for it. But people have been predicting death and doom and destruction for thousands of years, and it never turns out so bad.

You can call me Phi, Numbers, Digits, Ratio, 16, 1618, or whatever really, as long as it's not Phil.

The report from the UN Broadband Commission is an amusing read:

 

http://www.unwomen.org/~/media/headquarters/attachments/sections/library/publications/2015/cyber_violence_gender%20report.pdf?v=1&d=20150924T154259

 

The highlights (It's been a couple of days since I downloaded it, so fair play if they've corrected the few errors I've found) - The fifth citation on page 51 leads to somebody's HDD :laugh: and citations 72 & 75 on page 59 are blank.

 

I wouldn't be quick to call it (and every bit of research cited) bollocks, but it isn't convincing me to rethink my already dim view on social science.

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
