Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.
Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.
This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.
Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.
-
Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.
-
No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.

But to the second question...
They are a joke, yes. I worked on some server side code back in the day when a game server could be a nice self-contained executable on an EC2 instance. Even back then, I think it would’ve been a formidable task.
Now that game mechanics often necessitate more complex cloud infra, there’s a lot more going on that you can’t just Charles/mitmproxy your way through because it’s invisible to the client.
At the very least, you’ll need more than one dev, and that means coordination. For a ragtag group of hobbyists, AI is more likely to be a poison pill that kills the project before MVP.
Nobody ever makes jokes anymore, they alwa6s become them. And never good ones. Its very lonely.
Like the other person who replied exemplified, lack of wills. You could do it. Destiny recently ending development is a great example. It would be hard but its not impossible. One person probably couldn't finish it, but they could start it.
By stealing a copy of the back end code base then getting a team to figure it out and get the different client and server software versions to talk. Yes.
You're a joke, and one that disrespects everyone who's ever made anything.
Please leave your toxicity at the door. If you dont want to believe its possible to reverse engineer "modern cloud based game servers" then step aside for the people who do instead of calling people a disgrace.
Interesting! And how do you feel about this 'leaving your toxicity by the door'?
TIL db0 still believes mathematics can be stolen.
Next you're going to say that numbers can be illegal.
Nooo what part of illegul do you not understand???!!!??
Mathematics can be stolen, but it's both morally correct and fun to steal back from the capitalists, so let's steal some relevant math right now.
Stealing from the powerful is always at least a cool element.
