• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨For those of you who enjoy open-world games, how big of a world is too big?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  What determines what "too big" is?

  Ease of travel and speed of travel. Even a small map can feel cumbersome, repetitive, and boring. If the missions are designed poorly, and the game mechanics ignore an entertaining user experience, walking down the same hallway a thousand times can feel like a chore.

  “Too big” is a relative feeling that involves many factors.

  I’m watching a friend play it on Twitch right now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just FYI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I only use it to cover my ass because I’m not sure I’m right

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Never buying milk from Walmart again⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If a perishable product comes in an opaque plastic container, that’s a deliberate choice. Always be suspicious of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What went wrong with Pizza Hut?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  “Drive”? A trip like that is a quest.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What went wrong with Pizza Hut?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A smaller pizza chain in the US. I’ve never tried their pizza.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla’s “Mad Max” mode is now under federal scrutiny⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  With it's reckless disregard for traffic laws, property, and lives, I thought Autopilot was already in Mad Max mode 100% of the time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I ain't risking shit⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  …which is why I'm glad I'm not expected to die for my employer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are some many people role playing as animals?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m going to guess that it’s because most animals spend their days eating, sleeping, and fucking. Some of them don’t even “raise” their kids. They don’t have the same responsibilities that humans do. Animals are assumed to be innocent. It’s an idealized life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What a welcoming party⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  OOP either doesn’t know or doesn’t care that labor can take hours, and is completely unpredictable. There’s also the issue of finding a delivery room with space to accommodate five observers, in addition to the other people who absolutely need to be there.

  This isn’t necessarily a bad idea, but the practicalities are significant.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t noticed it lately, but I’ve experienced what you’re talking about. As far as I can tell, it ebbs and flows.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon shops for diamonds⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait until he finds out how much the reception will cost.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I love literal memes, never fails to make me laugh, feel free to comment any more literal memes that you like :)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A clever literal meme is funny. You’ve provided an excellent example.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨gain⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The pleasant ending I didn’t know I wanted

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Memo to Bari Weiss Re: CBS News: You’re doomed⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Even if you don’t know who Bari Weiss is, and couldn’t care less about CBS News, read this. It’s pretty damn funny.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is real⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It reads like an attempt at joviality that comes off as condescending. College students see this shit all the time.

  I’m an old fart. I know better than to try to be hip. I’m not, and never have been. I get along just fine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is real⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It was funny at first, but I won’t miss it if it disappears like other slang has.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is real⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That was my first guess, too, but apparently not. Hmm.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  OOP should just hump a Furby like a normal person

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you think The Boys is an accurate representation if real people had superpowers?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I like how Vought is (among other things) so much like American professional sports organizations, the NFL in particular.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EA's new owners are making "a huge bet" on generative AI cost-cutting to help repay a $20 billion loan, claims report⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I can only imagine that the woman in the pic is laughing at this ridiculous headline. Guess what, EA, you’ve fucked yourself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should Neutron Stars be Added to the Periodic Table?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  (not to scale) is my favorite part

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So she's saying that she's a sexual bull?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I need to watch that movie again. It’s been way too long.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm burnt out, already changed jobs, what else can I do to go back to my normal self?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I have no advice, I’d just like to congratulate you on leaving a toxic work environment. A lot of people ask for coping advice that will help them tolerate their lousy job, when what they really need to do is get the hell out of there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This hairstyle is really going to....take off.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure that wire powers a motor, so the blades actually spin

  Lite Brite was the original pixel art

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta Accused of Torrenting Porn to Advance Its Goal of AI ‘Superintelligence’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I tried telling my partner that deepthroating me was the key to superior intelligence, but it just started a fight

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Every action has a reaction⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The meme kinda makes me laugh, but kinda doesn’t. Accountability is one thing, but we (American society) have seriously got to decide if/when punishing people for their personal beliefs is okay. Revenge only perpetuates itself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨at least no more trolley problems⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, thank you. I didn’t understand your use of the word “censorship”. That’s not common usage in American English, which is all I speak.
