  what the fuck

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨*He's beginning to believe*⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like similarly sized cities have similar problems.

  for what it’s worth, I liked Richmond when I visited

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It genuinely upsets me that Valve spent their time and resources on another Dota variation⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  MOBAs were cool at the time of warcraft 3. Let’s move on.

  What kind of statement is this? MOBAs are still insanely popular. And “move on”? as if there’s no reason to iterate or improve on a genre?

  I don’t even play MOBAs but I’ve heard this same sentiment on arena shooters and it makes as much sense there as it does here.

  lol for real, every sentence I was like “dude… no, stop”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How is Lemmy better than Reddit?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  it’s such a backward argument but the fewer comments means I don’t spend a lot of time on each post and just move on with my life. I like it for the most part.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's painful to not be able to see everything at once.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  tiling window managers with multiple desktops is such a productivity boost and makes single screen work effortless. I don’t think I’ll ever use a traditional floating window os again

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there any good casual/low-stress mobile games that aren't filled with microtransactions?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem isn’t that no one is making good games, it’s just that the mobile market is dominated by too many large companies intent on keeping it the way it is and enough of the consumers are ok with that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hiiiiiii!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  this feels true but sometimes my cat makes such sad meows and I run over and go “oh my poor baby what’s wrong who hurt you”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Automation⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  fasterthanlime is so cool btw

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨non vegan pizza time⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  idk, I’m a meat eater and if it wasn’t for vegans evangelizing I really wouldn’t know how messed up meat production is. We allow some seriously cruel shit to fellow sentient beings, far beyond just killing them, and no one wants to think about it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Doom: The Dark Ages is introducing big changes to combat because id Software came to one core realization: "Every projectile mattered in the original Doom"⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I always felt like dodging projectiles and not needing to worry about vertical aiming was the best part of doom.

  It also translates to controllers well too vs the hit scan skills required with modern fpses along with the ability to aim on the vertical axis

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Employees Who Stay In Companies Longer Than Two Years Get Paid 50% Less⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You can’t just hand out 20% raises every time someone threatens to leave.

  if you have multiple employees getting job offers that are 20% higher then you’re not paying your employees enough 🤷‍♂️

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Indie Chat & Recommendation Thread⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Arctic Eggs is a short but neat game about frying eggs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thwack⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  do you think they can taste their brain?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Recompilation: An Incredible New Way to Keep N64 Games Alive⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I suspect it was my age when I first played it but when I play it now I don’t feel the camera pain. I know that’s the biggest complaint but what exactly is the pain? is it hard to articulate exactly other than it feels like a lack of control?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are the best indie games you've ever played?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  this is a great post. I do think the outer wilds description is a smidge spoilery. I know, people figure that out pretty quickly but it’s still a neat experience if going in blind
