![]() Ukraine is starting to slide down the page for the New York Times and the Washington Post. You can see the shift already, as we head into the unofficial start of summer. Next up for a starring role on the big stage is the election. There are efforts to revive the franchise but rebooting Covid is going to be a tough sell, even to people on the Left. That means the topic has pretty much fallen out of the news cycle now. Looking back, the last Covid e-mail was back in in the winter. For a long time it was close to a daily occurrence, then it settled into the same pattern as other topics. ![]() Something I did not notice while compiling the show was that I have not received any Covid questions or comments in a while. It is just a grab bag of topics that have accumulated since the last mailbag show back in the winter. The title for the show reflects the fact that the show has no theme. This week I empty out the mailbag and address the complaints that have come in since the last time. I need a little break to catch up on some other items, so this is a good time for that. No show next week as it is a long weekend in the United States. Please read the Legal Jibber Jabber (yes that's what it's called) and the policies on show this week is the season finale, so to speak. "We have very simple and easy to read policies around developing products around Riot Games. "Hijacking to say please don't do this," Chorba said on a Reddit post. "Chronoshift was never going to go past a patch in early season two, and was not designed to compete with the live game."Īt the time of its announcement, Riot warned the makers to not go ahead with the project, with senior development lead Gene Chorba responding to the announcement. "Chronoshift has not interacted with the live game, or live game accounts, in any way, shape or form," the post continues. The post also states that Chronoshift was not designed to conflict with the live build of League of Legends, but it is instead intended as a preservation of the version of the game that is no longer downloadable. "To our best knowledge, and the assessment of the lawyers specialized in IT copyright we talked the project over with, we have not done anything illegal," the Chronoshiftdev account wrote. Riot also denies claims that it tried to "extort" code and assets from the Chronoshift team, which were detailed in a Reddit post last Friday. The Chronoshift operators have complied with Riot Games, but said they are "incredibly disappointed by the way Riot chose to handle this situation." Riot states that this is a standard demand issued to all developers that are engaged in unauthorised use of its intellectual property. "In addition, we demand that you turn over to Riot all of the software materials associated with Chronoshift, including any modded clients and any source code you or others have developed in connection with the project." "Riot cannot permit the use or exploitation of unauthorised emulated services in any manner, by anyone, irrespective of the intent or purpose," the letter said. The server, known as Chronoshift, was announced In March last year and was in development up until Riot's cease-and-desist last weekend.Ī letter, shared by PC Gamer, sent to the Chronoshift developers last week demanded an immediate discontinuation of any work pertaining to the Chronoshift project, and for the server to be closed down. Riot Games has shut down a fan-made League of Legends "legacy server" that allows players to access a ten-year-old version of the game.
