Well… There are drugs that’ll let you THINK you’re doing all that, and that’s almost as good, right?

Technology@lemmy.world•Wikipedia is resilient because it is boringEnglish
1·9 months agoNah, no worries. As you said yourself, the first case is probably easy to find… And besides, the series is so old at this point, it’s entirely on me for not having played it yet. I’ve owned them since the PS Vita days. I just straight up haven’t prioritised it yet.
I think I’m at the top of mount stupid, because I’m certainly not competent.
I started with Linux Mint and daily drove that for a while. Really liked it too. Then I noticed that screen sharing ssssuuucked when playing games, and since Mint’s Wayland didn’t want to work on my machine, I decided to jump ship.
I’m currently on Nobara (Glorious Eggroll’s Fedora flavor) and… it’s just pretty easy to work with.
Or maybe I’m at the know nothing stage, along with PopOS

2·9 months agoI agree here. I’m looking forward to playing these games myself, but I didn’t even consider it being a possible spoiler before the other person mentioned it.
Last time I saw this, I saw someone place their landlord in that corner. Slimy and with a house… not sure how they got 4+ legs though
Thank you. I appreciate the vote of confidence :)
I think a lot of documentation just fly over my head. I have a masters degree in mathematics, but so many manuals have such deeply ingrained “tribal” language that everyone takes for granted that you know.
If you have a good starting point for a poor linux noob to read manuals, hit me up.
(That being said, I DO read the manuals for appliances and all that. THAT stuff is luckily easy)
I recently replayed Metal Gear Rising, and when Armstrong kept talking about how much of a pussy America has become and started yelling that with him at the helm, he’d MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, I was fucking shocked.
Granted, I know that term was an old Reagan term, but fuck, with Metal Gear Solid 2 (2001) being all about the internet flooding with misinformation and AI making it so that you don’t truly know who you’re talking with… And with Rising (2013) being about a dude thinking America is too woke and wanting to make it great again… AND WITH DEATH STRANDING (2019) being all about everyone being locked inside their homes, isolated with little physical connection to their friends and families, only waiting for the mailman to arrive with packages…
Whew, if I had to point out a person I suspect may have a functioning time machine, Kojima might be it…

Gaming@beehaw.org•Ubisoft CEO responds to the Stop Killing Games petition, stating the publisher is 'working on' improving its approach to end-of-life support, but that 'nothing is eternal'
2·11 months agoCompletely agree! It makes for a game that’s still super healthy to this day, and I love that

Gaming@beehaw.org•Ubisoft CEO responds to the Stop Killing Games petition, stating the publisher is 'working on' improving its approach to end-of-life support, but that 'nothing is eternal'
20·11 months agoParaphrasing from Frost here; It’s the “stop killing games” movement, Yves. It’s not the “stop games from dying”-movement.
It’s fine if you no longer want to support a game, but you can still make it available offline if you have a lan. Trackmania is a good example, since ubi now owns that. The original is still being played in lans the world over!
So yeah, fuck you, Ubi. It’s a choice to be like this.
Hmm. You just had me thinking if that’s true or not. I think money is an interesting thing. Inherently, it has no value, it’s not rare, it’s not useful. It is only useful because we as a society believe that it now has value. But that’s more of a “we all decided that money is now worth something.” Like… a question of definition.
Another is safety. A society that believes they’re safe will probably have a lot less tension and infighting than a society that believes they’re unsafe.
On the other hand, you might erroneously believe that a bike helmet makes you much safer in traffic, to the point where you may ride more recklessly than otherwise and therefore be less safe than if you hadn’t worn a helmet…
Had to double check when I read this. Zoomed in super close, and the second to last panel actually has a veeery faint outline of a new path

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is the worst online community, that isn't Reddit, that you know about and all should avoid?
21·1 year agoI’m gonna say FunnyJunk. It’s mostly right wing memes and downvotes if you say anything close to “I don’t think this Trump gut has it all figured out”

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•US officials forced to share bald JD Vance meme by denying tourist’s claim he was denied entry over photoEnglish
228·1 year agoA Norwegian newspaper got to see his letter of denial and it didn’t list drug use at all. Rather they said he tried to enter the country to get a job illegally.
At this point, CBP’s story keeps changing, and I don’t trust anything they say.

News@lemmy.world•YouTube star Mikayla Raines dies by suicide at 29, husband blames online abuse
191·1 year agoThere are a scant few people who deserve to be bullied for their actions of hurting others. Mikayla was NOT one of them. How someone can bully someone who is doing their best to help make the world better… I can never understand.
I saw people saying that she made a lot of mistakes that could have been avoided, and while that may be, at least she did something about it, unlike so many others.
