“Ready to wuuuuurk”

I knew someone would link this to 3 Body. The book’s take on aliens vs humans is pretty realistic IMO.

This is a really awesome answer. Thanks for taking the time writing it all out.

I think changing out my detergent for something really scent free is a good first step.

Well that sucks I really do like the smell. But maybe I’m just crazy.

You caught me

A no-install, no-config option I built for this purpose: https://rss.diffbot.com

Reeder on iOS and Mac is excellent. Not open source, but lovingly crafted by an indie dev.

I look forward to these with every refresh of my Lemmy feed. I don’t want an endless loop of “news”. I just like hearing from normal people enjoying games.

🤷 I wouldn’t fret the downvotes too much. Unlike Reddit it means practically nothing here. It bothers you a whole lot more than it bothers me.

IMO, the least interesting conversations are ones where everyone agrees. When opinions differ, the real tragedy is when we stop listening to the other side.

For what it’s worth, I’m more than happy to keep listening.

Absolutely. NPCs are just wallpaper to me. They might as well not exist. It’s way more interesting to me to see real people.

You’re thinking too rationally. It is nigh impossible to be rational in a situation where you are hungry, tired, and could die at any moment from a drone strike.

What does “be smarter” even mean? Move out of Gaza?

Nobody wants to die. It takes a lot for someone to risk death to make a statement. It’s a feeling I will never be able to fully understand because I’m not there living this reality with him.

Another way of putting it — saying “be smarter” is like telling a minimum wage worker to stop spending money on lattes and they’ll become rich.

I love these slice of life type games that offer a variety of quests, trades, and places to explore. I know there are plenty of those as single player games but they’re infinitely more fun as MMOs where friends can hop in and join you.

Minimal. There’s a unique captcha system in harvesting that makes it difficult to bot. The closest thing to bad bots are people running multiple accounts on single account servers to run dungeons. It’s a bannable offense and people do get banned for doing it.

Try Wakfu. There are a lot of chill trades to grind casually and the economy is completely player driven. There are no NPCs to buy or sell your loot to.

The PvE gameplay loop is really fun. The game has an adjustable level system that encourages players to replay lower level dungeons. Battles are turn based and have a surprising amount of strategy.

The only real problem with the game is that the devs seem to not care about player growth at all. They do zero marketing and sometimes the registration system is broken and won’t get fixed for awhile. It’s like the opposite problem to RuneScape.

First western headline that doesn’t mince

Bluesky: https://bsky.jazco.dev/stats Mastodon: https://fedidb.org/software/mastodon

There isn’t a 1:1 comparison. But the closest comparison looks like Mastodon is on a bit of a decline at 800k MAU. Bluesky is roughly 400k daily likers.

If, as an employee, you offer your personal laptop or pay for work expenses out of pocket without asking to get it reimbursed, no functioning company will question it or bother.

If you need something for work and they won’t give it to you, then you can’t work. It’s as simple as that.

I don’t usually recognize Lemmy users but I’ve run into your posts a lot these last few days. I assumed you were a bot but from interactions like these it’s clear you mean well. Love to see Lemmy growing from power users like yourself!
