Also at this point I firmly believe if there's a Global South v Global North divide, it's how people think of "cyberbullying" which is what would be called 'cancel culture' in american. People really aren't used to heckling their betters huh - and really it's because that high/low-trust + lack of democracy is real: if you can't exactly depend on the govt channels and politics is all elite contestation, of course being loud in public is pretty much the only way to register anything. Makes sense why 'cancelling' was initially term that came up within Black American society and the majoritarian whites have no idea how to handle it because the assumption is that Something Will Be Done If You Just Do It This (Diplomatic) Way, You're Just Being Unproductive. (Edit: because in their worldview, speech IS a productive political act, and if you're marginalized by the state, it's really not, but it's all you got. So turn up the volume dial baby, we're telling on people.)

Anyway that's just me, scrolling through the Infinity Nikki subreddit lmao. Meanwhile everyone else in the global gacha scene is mostly perplexed because they're used to minimizing bad behaviour because they're raised to be grateful to companies I guess and suddenly even global is getting to be as loud as CN? About consumer rights that's not just spending habits? Gasp.

Welp, so apparently (at least the #Steam release of) #InfinityNikki currently only supports the #SteamDeck (the LCD model in particular?), and not #Linux as a whole, due to their ACE anti-cheat.

The same thing also applies to
#WutheringWaves apparently which was also just released on Steam, 'cept for this one, it straight up does not work on Linux/Steam Deck at all (at least for now).

Being
cockblocked by anti-cheat for online, competitive #games like #Fortnite, #Valorant, and the like - I don't care at all, but not being able to play popular, chill, free games like these simply bcos the developer/anti-cheat decides to not open up their game for Linux gamers... that sucks ass. Hope this gets addressed soon.

Continued thread

going oldest to newest with these. idk why I never had a closeup of her face in the beginning, I was more into the clothes and environments.
(fun fact with the black background one she was standing on a chimney with smoke coming out at night and I just fucked with the filters and color settings as much as I could push it at the time)
