you seem to want to bring conservative political talking points to a baldurs gate forum. Why? Please stop.

Firstly, you know nothing about my political leanings. If I had to myself in one of your “boxes” it would definitely be left leaning not conservative, so that makes your point moot.

I said nothing about diverse viewports. That is your own skewed perceptions jumping in. I am all for diversity and equality. Everybody should be treated equally!

What I am against is FORCED hiring practices. I know nothing about the hiring practices of Larian, and you can see they have a very diverse team, but you can also see, from their various podcasts, that the people there are capable and love doing what they are doing. There is no “in your face” agenda pushing from their material.

Why are you so afraid of hiring by merit? But, just continue to push your own narrative in your head if it makes you feel better.

No just the industry at large with their “Quota” hiring policies and other such crap.

EDIT: For those doing the downvoting… you don’t improve your civilization by bringing it down to the lowest level, you try raise the lower level up. “Quotas” bring things down being you cannot use the best people. “Quotas” are the easy path for virtue signaling and you end up worse for it. Proper education and training is the only way to improve things, but that takes time and money.

Why do people say “perfect storm of conditions”? Larian has worked hard to perfect their style of crpgs through the divinity series. They put an emphasis on good storytelling and listening to fan feedback. They do early access to perfect their systems. They hire writers, composers and developers based on merit. They care about what they are creating. This is not a perfect storm but good management and development cycle. There is nothing random or lucky about it.

Thanks, I have gone through and identified the REAL accounts gathered the ID’s and deleted the rest from local_user and person tables.

Haven’t really played much with Postgress so took some time to look up all the functionality with that.

EDIT: yup, made sure the person one was local only :)

The one I learnt at the dawn of time was BODMAS.

bracket of Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction.

I learnt this in the 70’s early 80’s in South Africa, so not sure if things have changed.

lol, this made me chuckle… Are you an AI bot?

And How would I do that in the UI? This is the issue, haven’t found a way to even find those users on my system, even though it marks at 15 extra users.

thanks I will try this.

I agree, and the level of user on G+ was of a techy IT variety of person. It was great and you could have good conversations. Lemmy really has that feel now. Enjoy it till either the general public gets hold of it and it turns into a cesspool or it slowly dies a death.

Personally I hope to face neither of those scenarios, but history is not on our side.

Been using Joplin for ages now. used to use Evernote and was trying to find something to replace it. Joplin fitted that need, and being able to store all the stuff on my dropbox in encrypted format made it great for use on all my devices. Combination of Joplin and Bitwarden is pretty much my secure solution to everything. lol
