  They don’t even meow to each other, just to humans. They know what they are about.

  I am looking forward to someone suing YouTube for deceptive advertising after they get ads on premium.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Destiny 2 Players Struggle To Find Fireteams As Population Drops To All-Time Low⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  The story is done. Even when it wasn’t, the game felt like you were getting eight paragraphs of story per season spread over one paragraph per week.

  I mostly pvp, the population is so bad that matchmaking has necessarily become terrible or there would be no matches. Every lobby has outliers on the high and low skill. The algorithm seems to put the six best players on the same team. I am either slaughtering the other team or getting slaughtered. A competitive match is a super rare occurrence. Anyway the lack of players makes the experience bad which is causing a death spiral. Anyone new is virtually guaranteed a bad experience, because most of the people left are the sweats.

  I don’t know why I still play. Habit I guess. I have a huge backlog of games I ought to be playing instead. I game to relax and investing in the learning curve of a new game doesn’t feel very relaxing.

  Smallpox was definitely one of the things that made America great.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are examples of things that would get you banned on reddit, but is okay on most major instances of Lemmy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I got permabanned for saying I would like to see how Eisenhower would treat some Nazi marchers in Wisconsin. Apparently, that is not a commentary on how far the Republicans have shifted, but is actually advocating violence. I haven’t been supplying Reddit with free content since. Their loss, I had a pretty decent amount of karma, so I probably was contributing to the popularity of their site.

  I too fake an accent when I am carefully planning an assassination. I hope he is already somewhere with no extradition treaty.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How embarrassing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If I was the defense attorney, I think this would be the test case for instructing the jury on jury nullification (which will get you sanctioned at a minimum and probably disbarred if you’re the attorney that tries it). I think defendants ought to be entitled to instruct the jury about the possibility. I personally would never disclose that I believe in it during voir dire and also would never vote to convict on some crimes.

  I too am Spartacus.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How embarrassing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  FBI searching for the killer: United Healthcare denied 2.8M insurance claims in the last year and most of those people have families, so it looks like we have around 10M suspects.

  As a stereotypical American, I thought Corsica was Northern Ireland and Sardinia was Ireland. Thanks for clearing up my confusion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why isn't Putin receiving the same level of hate than people like Trump and Elon are?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because people don’t like jumping out of windows to their death.

  An older reference, but a meritorious one. We will need to delve deeper into this dungeon to determine how you master it. Perhaps there’s a tome of rules to guide our journey into this pursuit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Funny but it's even less funny⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Interest declined when they discovered the immigration process was non-trivial. I checked into Canada back in 2016. Didn’t bother this time. I think a lobotomy might be the answer. It would be nice if I could just have my empathy surgically removed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cognitive Biases⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  To be clear, sometimes authority bias is good and proper. For instance, valuing the opinion of a climate scientist who has been studying climate chaos for thirty years more than your Aunt who saw Rush Limbaugh say climate change is a hoax in the 1990s is normal and rational.

  Basically, authority bias as a reasoning flaw stems from misidentifying who is authoritative on a subject.

  They’ll also try to linear fit even the most obvious exponential curve.

  That’s an amazing name for a horse.

  Centos 7.3 in an oracle virtual box on windows 10, but I definitely feel like the “hello, how are you fellow kids?” guy. There is not even a RedHat in the graphic for me to pretend is me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please stop⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am trying to think of a mildly entertaining game that was ruined after being purchased by a third party. Maybe Populous? Musk is definitely EA.

  Rumor is he is going to release an album that is hours of recordings of Boris just destroying that toilet. Preliminary grammy favorite for best new artist.

  Cougars in heat sound like a woman being murdered. Bigger louder sound than a fox. Terrifying if you don’t know what it is, and a bit terrifying if you do.

  At least it isn’t a couch at Ashley’s.

  I looked out the window and seen his bald head,

  Ran to the fridge and pulled out an egg

  Scoped him with my scopes he had no hair

  Launched that shot and he was caught out there

  AI prompt was probably “draw Hillary, but make her as fat as Donald.”

  Someone needs to tell him. If you can get a mosquito to bite you on muscle that you then flex. They can get trapped. They can be overfilled with blood to the point where they burst.

  Somewhere Howard Dean is wondering how the fuck he was too unhinged to be electable in the face of daily insanity from the orange.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Do People Still Play Destiny 2?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have been playing it for 6 years. The gun play is great. It gets regular updates. I still have fun. I wish the pvp player pool was bigger so that match making would work better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Concord servers are now offline. Thank you to all the freegunners who have joined us in the Concord galaxy"⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think this game even lasted long enough for word of mouth to have popularized it. I didn’t hear about it until it was dead. I am wondering how many players Helldivers 2 had at 11 days (not a great example because it was an existing IP with existing fans). Could they have made it if the game had actually been good? I am not sure. Shutting down super fast got them more publicity than anything else they did.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon doesn't like reddit⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I use it less and less. I only really visit two sub reddit, and one of them has been really declining as it has grown.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Animals that use Drugs⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am not sure if I am scared of a high jaguar or want to pet it. Maybe both?

  Jaguar to his buddy: “Dude, I was so baked I let a hairless monkey pet me. I got the munchies though, so I ate him.”

  Meanwhile, TSA: no water bottle for you. Bring a cell phone, laptop battery, and a spare 20,000 mAh backup battery (of dodgy provenance no less)? Sure no problem.
