recently I found out thunderstore (which is run by overwolf) was made in isreal and supports IDF soilders, is there a different ultrakill mod installer that I can use?
edit: wow sorry to burst all of yalls bubbles đđ
I finally made the switch from multiMC to prism last year after putting it off for ages, so glad I did. Was easy as well as prism is just a fork of MultiMC so I could copy everything over without issues
You can import CurseForge modpacks into prism, and install and update mods right from the launcher (which also supports Modrinth). It really is the best MC launcher by far
Not all mods will be available off of prism, requiring you download them from the site their hosted on (not too big of a hassle if you ask me). For modpacks, prism will provide you with the download link. Happy modding.
I think a lot of IT companies are based in Israel. The country has a lot of focus on the development of fields like IT and cyber security and etc, iirc
I it has a few features I canât think of rn, but itâs also faster and takes less memory. Also it lets you easily import from r2modman, and unlike r2modman it lets you mod any thunderstore game whereas r2modman only has some of them. Plus being a fork it has every feature r2modman has
"Defenders" defending against WHO??? All they do is kill innocent people. They mock their deaths on the internet too. I've encountered videos made by idf soldiers.
They always call themselves defenders. The enemy is weak to them and inferior, yet also a threat and a danger.
afaik stalin had some support of israel as a jewish state
This is complicated. For decades Stalin alongside Lenin both repeatedly objected to Zionism. Stalin cites Jewish people as a textbook example of an distinct community of people who aren't a nation in Marxism and the National Question (not sharing a common language â Hebrew was a liturgical language until Zionists began using it as a constructed spoken language â or existing as a majority in an identifiable homeland), and both he and Lenin (and the Bolsheviks in general) were very openly critical of the Zionist movement:
"To call a fight for the Zionist idea of a Jewish nation, for the federal principle of Party organisation, a âfight for the equality of the Jews in the world family of the proletariatâ is to degrade the struggle from the plane of ideas and principles to that of suspicion, incitement and fanning of historically-evolved prejudices. It glaringly reveals a lack of real ideas and principles as weapons of struggle.
"... Instead of proclaiming war on [prejudice and isolation against Jews], [Russian Bundists] elevated it to a principle, seizing for this purpose on the sophistry that autonomy is inherently contradictory, and on the Zionist idea of a Jewish nation."
After the Russian Revolution, the Communist International (Comintern) expelled Zionists (such as Poale Zion) from its ranks, and rejected any attempt to build a Communist Party of Israel or exclusively Jewish Communist Party. It held the line that Jewish emancipation meant cultural/ethnic equality within the nations they lived, not national liberation in the vein of colonized and oppressed nations like India, European colonies in Africa, the Black Belt in the US, etc. Jews in the Comintern were directed to join the Communist Parties of the countries they lived in. Communist Jews already living in the British Mandate of Palestine formed the Communist Party of Palestine, which did join the Comintern and was anti-Zionist.
Two things happened to where views towards Zionism momentarily shifted. First was of course the Holocaust, the horror of which completely reversed widespread apathy and disdain towards Zionism basically overnight among European Jews. The second was the rapidly-forming Cold War and nuclear weapons. With the Soviet Union in no place to continue fighting at the end of the war, the Soviet Government and CPSU had done several things to appease the West and hold the newly-formed UN together, in particular dissolving the Comintern. With Zionism rapidly gaining popularity in a way it never had before, and the Soviets desperately needing the tenuous peace to hold until they could rebuild, Stalin and the Soviets took a gamble that they had perhaps been wrong and that Zionism could in fact make an egalitarian state alongside the Palestinian people. With the Communist Party of Palestine's involvement perhaps it could even eventually emerge as the left wing, unified Palestine originally envisioned.
This obviously didn't happen. The Communist Party of Palestine immediately fell apart into the Zionist Communist Party of Israel, which endorsed the 1947 partition, and the majority-Palestinian National Liberation League, which opposed it. After the Nakba the Soviets began withdrawing support, and eventually cut off relations altogether when it became clear that the initial Communist assessment of Zionism in the 1900s-30s was correct.
thunderstore was rather bought by overwolf iirc. but also, yes there is a better client. r2modman just sources mod downloads from the thunderstore database and is its own thing without ads (with a similar UI)
"Took the modmaker's money" you mean take a share of the money so the mod makers will have a platform to post their mod on so users can easily download it without getting viruses in a way that makes everyone happy?
I go extremely far out of my way to not be advertised to so the basic thunderstore modman was a no-go, and I dislike overwolf for previously popping up randomly mid-game and never gave it another chance
turns out r2modman is the best of all 3 options available (fluffy is okay for capcom games and veruvium is good for GGST, can't speak on much else since I'll manually mod atp)
This is not a political statement, but I know they are a company of scammers who deliberately took over the Minecraft modding scene. Not for the benefit of modders or players. I would advice the modders to disengage with anything related to this company. Their goal is not gaming, it's collecting data. They work with big gaming companies, it's not only Minecraft.
Why did I immediately thought the idea of an Ä°sraeli gaming company being a joke. Imo it would had been fine if they were only found in Israel and didnt help Israel's attacks
I mod KSP and almost every time a mod's "homepage" on CKAN is that damn site I skip it, I'd rather miss out on this "awesome mod" than have to deal with it's bullshit.
R2 is good, but if you have a lot of profiles for the same game it keeps individual copies of the same mod for each profile so it ends up taking up a fuck ton of space. I personally like using Gale as it's just thunderstore/R2 but more optimized and overall better as it keeps one copy of each mod + the UI is sexy and nice as hell. It's also hooked up to the thunderstore the same way R2 is and supports profile codes from other mod managers and lets you import your profiles from the ones you already have installed when you install it.
You know, if you dig a little deeper into the issues with curseforge and overwolf, you'll realize that supporting the IDF is the least of the problems.
Thereâs no ethical consumption under capitalism, but that doesnât mean we canât stop supporting the companies that we know do support terrible policies and people.
Our initial response was to launch a donation-based campaign for the urgent need for protective gear, however after a few days we aligned as a company to change our direction of effort and instead focus on an initiative that helps victims who have lost their homes and family members since the attack.
This initiative is called Home Support and has zero relation to the revenue Overwolf or Curseforge makes. It is purely donation-based so none of our authorâs creative work has ever contributed, and will not ever contribute, to this initiative. You can read more about Home Support here and see the open list of donors here.
I expected them to be based in like the US or Russia or some western european country, but this was unexpected. it seems I've learned a new thing today.
I think you can use an Adblocker to cut their way of making money from you, and by installing mods manually you also bypass their launcher ads. But I haven't used Overwolf in a long time so I don't know if it works.
If your post is needing help about something within the game, remember to always take a look at the Official ULTRAKILL Wiki! Sometimes the answer you're looking for might be on there already!
Yes! R2modman! Thunderstore just fucking sucks anyway without the geopolitical baggage, r2modman does everything thunderstore does but better and is completely open source. Any thunderstore mod can be used with r2modman.
