Funnily enough meteorologists have all sorts of short phrases like that that I find equally confusing, it’s like half broken English but it works

- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 finally officially revealed 5 days ago:
Pokemon is literally the same game over and over, I hugely regretted my purchase of pokemon x cause it was literally a cloned game with barely any new features. It’s probably Nintendo’s most effective cash cow in terms of effort to capital reward.

this failing isn’t on you though. AAA games is not what it used to be, I feel like between 2008 to 2014 game companies have all progressed and transitioned into something they didn’t use to be.
my $4k gaming PC at this point is a glorified FFXIV machine although, I do plan to play other things soon.

- Comment on Anon discovers Japanese jazz 2 weeks ago:
there are many world class western musicians so people reading my criticism will probably think in targeting western music as whole.
it’s just this weird subculture in western music that I don’t like and it shows through their live performances the most. fou only hear “wow it sounds just like the album” when western groups are playing
- Comment on Anon discovers Japanese jazz 2 weeks ago:
you are all not going to like my take on JP music
Western music has a history of taking pride in lack of music education, obviously with rock gods trying to convince their audience that “they don’t know what chords are” and such.
Obviously when compared to a society that prides itself on education and “trying” at hobbies (otaku), then you get to see some insane 6D jazz chords and solos from outer space
Biggest lie Western musicians have sold to their audience is the music theory will “take away” something from their music/originality
- Comment on Anons make the worst game ever 3 weeks ago:
they really need to trim the fat again for ARR
and hopefully moving forward they need to think of an alternative to dumping a 40hr story as a prerequisite to playing the freshest content.
don’t get me wrong im not against the ff story but at some point it will literally be “play 700 hrs of solo questing to play with your friends who just recommended you FFXIV”
which leads me to my next point. your friends must find playing with you enjoyable enough. which means that the early game stuff needs a rework as well pressing 2 buttons is just not very fun

oh no it’s … : FFXIV
and I say that and an enjoyer

Amazon Canada is just a bunch of no name brand Chinese shit.
the hilarious part is that there is genuinely good Chinese products in 2024 but it’s almost like Amazon wants to flood their store with over priced junk instead

I’ve never attended a singe scholarly celebration since my middle schools where I went and realized that it was completely pointless
plus the whole preparation and fanfare is draining for me, id like to actually celebrate by relaxing not stressing over an event

maybe this wording works on a certain kind of voter because of the “fuck you I got mine” attitude, they probably think that if they were the scientist they would reap the benefits for themselves

Suit psychology is so different from tech workers. they don’t understand why tech workers don’t want to live stream their private working area and tech workers don’t understand why suits are obsessed with looking at people in meetings

”its garbage but I love it" should be more commonly said than dying on a hill defending the most unremarkable b-movie
- Comment on Thanks for the warning I guess?? 1 month ago:
my phone at 80% vol is fairly quiet with my earbuds.
I’ve also noticed that this warning’s timing is quite random.
I always listen to music on my commutes and they’ve been the same commute for 2 years and Ive only seen this warning like four or five times completely out of the blue.

- Comment on do you think lemmy will ever be popular? 2 months ago:
very hot take:
regular people will never get rid of twitter or meta, Facebook. YouTube. it’s incompatible with their psychology.
they need to use what other people are using, they need to see “content” from their followed users
switching to another platform will kill that for them for weeks and stall their “growth”
to be forward thinking and to give up something you’ve had is too much for the average person
which is why I’m on Lemmy: there’s nothing reddit offers to me that makes me “give” it up, it’s always been there but now that there’s competition it’s worth trying something new out
I honestly think id anything Lemmy will have a slow decrease of users until it comes to a halt
