Have fun playing :D
- Comment on What are your favorite 1000+ hour games? 4 days ago:
Warframe. Inching closer to 3.000h currently.
It does come in waves, but every once in a while I go all in again and lose myself in the infinite things you can do.
- Comment on He's a party guy 1 week ago:
I think there’s currently over a hundred potential victims individually or collectively suing him.
And before anyone starts searching, please take this trigger warning. It’s one of those cases that seems to have about the worst allegation making him look like a real monster.
We’ll see how much of that will stick in trial but it’s looking really bad for him.
- Comment on Black owner here.... without context that sounds really bad 1 week ago:
Yes. There is either asshole or asshole but purrs occasionally.
- Comment on Tavern Master, the popular inn management game (~9K reviews at very positive), releases their Pirates Retreat DLC on Steam 1 week ago:
Lovely game tbh, can recommend if you just wanna have something to do for a while without thinking too much.
- Comment on if you workout and run, would you recommend a merino wool base or mid layer for autumn/winter? or am I going to break it? 1 week ago:
This one is far more important than it seems: take care of you nips! At longer distances they can get bruised so bandaids or similar things are advised.
- Comment on Yes, very much 1 week ago:
I feel you.
Felt that way a lot with friends and it makes me irrationally angry when it happens multiple times in a row, so I make it a point to ask other people what they were gonna say before they got interrupted. Makes everyone be more respectful and the people who get interrupted feel heard and can share their stories still.
But yeah pretty sure this is the exact reason I kinda distanced myself from one of my friends. She didn’t even acknowledge when I said something so I was just present and that’s about the only reason she wanted me there for I assume. Still makes me mad considering how much I tried to improve my social skills and stuff just to be a ghost irl again.

I second that.
- Comment on strange workplace, how should I proceed? 2 weeks ago:
If this sounds like retaliation, that’s probably a good reason to get your union involved.
Either there is more to the story you’re not telling us, or your manager and that coworker are absolute assholes. Maybe even both.
- Comment on Trump's eligibility 2 weeks ago:
I mean making someone ineligible to be president for as long as he is under investigation for insurrection, treason or other crimes against the United States sounds pretty straightforward.
He could always wait and get back into it the next cycle if the investigation drops.
- Comment on Why doesn't Lemmy have a system like Reddit's Karma? 2 weeks ago:
It is by choice.
Now I don’t agree with that choice, but many others here do. Maybe it would be great if this is still an option you could turn on / off per instance or something.
- Comment on Is there a conversational AI chat bot that isn't... So horny? Preferably free, but I'll pay a little bit of it's good. 2 weeks ago:
Yes, this is exactly what I’ve found them to be the most useful for.
Here’s a list:
-
ChatGPT Lemmy will hate me for this, but it remains the best chat it there is, especially if you subscribe to the pro version. There’s different models but essentially it’s just a good bot that will be really helpful giving you feedback on thoughts and ideas. A to A-
-
Llama on huggingface Basically an open source alternative to ChatGPT done well, although not quite as good. Huggingface is great because you will always find live demos of all the models there so if you are not a power user, in a limited way you can use this model on the website.
Between B and C tier
- Llama self setup Llama is open source so it is possible to set it up yourself. Using the webui it is possible to do this on your own PC, removing the limitations for conversation speed and message counts. You will be struggling if your graphics card can’t entertain the model though (good models eat vram for breakfast). If you have it setup, you will always get the best experience out of the Llama models which might make this worth it.
C tier
Other than those there are a lot of sites offering subscriptions to what is basically a different frontend for chatgpt or other open source models, which is arguably worse than all the options mentioned. There might be some gems in the rough but I haven’t looked too far into it. This should give you an introductory overview though which is presumably more helpful to you.
I personally use ChatGPT and I am starting to appreciate it a lot. It does still lead ahead of Llama or anything else.

- Comment on if you quit a job you didn't like or was toxic, didn't the financial hit scare you? 3 weeks ago:
I think this really depends on how you quit. If you do it on an impulse, that’s gonna really roll the dice, but if you already have another job lined up and you know the financial hit can be dampened by savings or another way, you might feel a bit safer.
I just heard that my contract can’t be renewed and it runs out in March, so I’ll have too look for something. I have enough time and I already took care of everything else so I don’t have to panic anymore, but the anxiety will be there until I secured another job I’m happy with, and I just gotta deal with that.
My current job is not toxic but it does keep me on my toes and one of my bosses I can’t get along with; he is always suspicious of me and I can’t really deal with that. I just wanna do my job and not appeal to people lol.
- Comment on Anon plays shirts vs skins 5 weeks ago:
Ok yeah that makes sense.
- Comment on Anon plays shirts vs skins 5 weeks ago:
Dumb question: how does shirts v skins work for girls? Did the just never pick girls for skins or did they make girls compete in a bra? Cause that sounds kinda shady…
- Comment on Payday 3 developer likens launch to being a rock band when "the whole stage collapses and everyone leaves" 5 weeks ago:
Sounds about right.
The publisher has been pressing hard on paid stuff in payday 2 and payday 3 didn’t have enough content / solid enough gameplay to replace it. Also there’s denuvo, and denuvo is not giving a great first impression.
- Comment on My mental health has improved after deleting games that have microtransactions in them 1 month ago:
Yeah I had to realize that as well at some point.
Used to play games and I was so focused on gameplay, I always thought “why even have a lot of art in there”. But then you realize if the art sucks, you wouldn’t even be giving it a chance.
And this extends to skins and stuff. If it’s “just cosmetics”, that still means there is some art that is now hidden unless you throw money at your screen. And depending on how much it is, the game might be way too boring without it. So you’re still buying bits of a game after the fact. And voila, we’re back to the reasons why DLCs suck.
- Comment on How do people make and save kaomoji art? 1 month ago:
On windows, there’s an ascii/unicode char lookup table, which you can use to search and copy special characters. Just FYI.
- Comment on The 42 year old new hire at your job confesses to you that he has had 48 different jobs in his life. What is your opinion on that? 1 month ago:
Yeah that’s a lot of information framing.
- Comment on Was the creation of the universe politically motivated or was it done for other reasons? 1 month ago:
I mean I appreciate the joke but this is a question community, so I understand why people who don’t get the reference are gonna answer that. No need to get groggy.
- Comment on When you inhale helium from a balloon, do you weigh less? 1 month ago:
They do but the amount of information is way smaller for the others. With your search engine of choice you’ll find the posts though if there are any.
- Comment on Balatro is now out on Mobile. Humanity is doomed. 1 month ago:
Played it on PC and it’s really cool, although I was hesitant at first considering it looks a bit like those cookie cutter role based rpgs that just wanna rent a spot in your wallet.

Why does this analogy make sense to me for some reason?

Indeed they seem to be particular proud about all the right and wrong things.
