@[email protected] FOR REAL. Westwood was apparently crushing it more than we ever knew.

@[email protected] While I personally agree with you, it is not in EA’s nature to allow their brands to flourish without profiting from it :xigbarsmirk:

IMO if they had any intention of pursuing the franchise themselves, the suits would see this as diluting the market or directly competing with whatever product they wanted to release in the future.

Not saying they’re right. Just saying that’s their track record.

@[email protected] right?! I am floored. Very unexpected from a company like EA. Though I assume this means they’re completely giving up on the franchise, otherwise it would be considered a competitive disadvantage

@[email protected] I was not aware of this! Putting it on my list

@[email protected] for what it’s worth, $200/yr for all the ps+ content is probably one of the best deals on entertainment-per-hour you can find. But I play a LOT of games so maybe that’s just me xD I’ve definitely gotten more out of ps+ than I ever did out of Xbox GamePass or EA Play.

@[email protected] bleh sorry about that :( As a Sony employee I get premium for free and the mobile app doesn’t clearly indicate which tier unlocked it

@aceattveg Duuuuuuude it’s so gooooood. Like, I am a sucker for the Dynasty Warriors / Strikers formula so I was all about the gameplay but omfg the music remixes are AMAZING

@[email protected] because it’s specifically software that is about opening and processing arbitrary payloads.

@[email protected] supply chain attacks are the favorite these days :/

@[email protected] CVE indicates 24.08 was the patched version

@[email protected] let me know if this happens. Nobody has claimed the code yet so it’s yours if you want it

@[email protected] I’m skeptical purely based on the end of kh-1 being such a focal point, but my interest is piqued :D

@Arotrios @readbeanicecream @daredevil and it answers my question: it is not the full server firehose, just the posts already known to the kbin server

@Arotrios @readbeanicecream @daredevil now I’m really curious how it works when you subscribe to a server. Is it pulling in that server’s public and local feeds? Or is it only showing you posts from users on that server that your instance already knows about

@Arotrios @readbeanicecream @daredevil this sounds very plausible. Unexpected, but it would make sense that kbin’s /d/ path is showing you the directory of content from your server’s local cache and not querying the target server.

Which kinda makes sense, honestly: since that feature is trying to list everything kbin knows about from the target server, populating it for the first time would definitely cause a significant load on that instance

@Arotrios @readbeanicecream @daredevil fwiw I can confirm that URUSAI! does not have any restrictions on kbin.social. And I’m able to load your kbin profiles from our Mastodon instance without issue.

I’d need to look into how the /d/ implementation in kbin works to know more.

But if you toss me the URL of a mastodon instance that DOES show up there without issue I might be able to learn something :)
