Imagine the social tension when it’ 1 BC and no one knows what that means.
- Comment on ZeniMax staff discuss Microsoft's "inhumane" mass layoffs and how the future looks for the "carcass of workers that remains" 6 days ago:
They claim staff were removed from company communications such as Slack and email before human resources had even made contact to inform them whether they’d been let go.
The creative energy they put into inventing new reasons for gamedevs to hate their job could be better put in, like, games?

You get The List person and never return them.

- Comment on Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival - Announcement Trailer 1 week ago:
If this trailer references some plot point from the actual game, I’d be interested in learning why she reached out for the ancient puzzlebox in the middle of couple’s bathing.
- Comment on Public transit in Chengdu, China versus Toronto, Canada 1 week ago:
I might be wrong but a lot of it’s wikipedia page looks like this city was completely reconstructed from the ground up in said period of time that makes it too exceptional for this comparison and not a usual occurence even in China. It became a major hub of China-EU trade upping it’s importance and neccesitating a boost in infrastructural efficiency while it’s population effectively doubled. A great move all around tho.

It’s gonna be a shame if H4ckerM4n2015 may brick you Switch after loosing a game of Mario Kart.
- Comment on Vibe coding service Replit deleted production database 1 week ago:
I doubt their claim. How does LLM communicate directly to different systems in their infrastructure? What even promts it to act to begin with?
Unless they went out of their way creating such interface for some reason, it is plain bullshit and human error, or a coverup by a skinbag CEO. He made screenshots of LLM taking the blame on itself that, as a concept, completely impossible, and we belive his lying ass lips. If only he asked it, at what stage AI is now, he could’ve lied better.

I wonder if there ever were fake fans coming with tees covered in real piss\shit\cum\blood.

- Comment on What should I get my online friend for their birthday? 1 week ago:
Have you considered sending them a physical letter? You can put a lot of digital goods as codes there (even steam games, albeit bought in 3rd party stores), also gift cards like ‘$10 in X store chain’ if that’s a thing at their place, but the novelty (hehe) of getting a birthday card that they can keep is waaay more cool than a gift notification. See if that’s possible and is up your alley.
- Comment on You'd need to calculate the compound interest 1 week ago:
Unethical number game suggests that if you invest 5mil into property now, you’d soon afford to double that, then quadruple that, then… By the end of said term, every square meter of Earth would hold some kind of an empty apartment complex.

- Comment on Stardew Valley dethrones Valve classic as Steam’s top-rated game 2 weeks ago:
I agree. But hear me out:
Portal 3 explores the fleet of Gaben’s megayachts with puzzles to get a control of them and also some abordaging\swimming mini-games to get from one to another, from smaller to bigger, with the last one being the promised Aurora Borealis, where game leaves us on an uncertain moment after we too see the feared G-Man but in Freeman’s glasses, got catched by a Smoker’s tonque in mall ninja rainbow colouring, only to be freed by Pudge teaming up with Scout.

- Comment on Stardew Valley dethrones Valve classic as Steam’s top-rated game 2 weeks ago:
The Talos Principle became an interesting spin on the idea of FPS puzzles that try to keep you engaged. They got more direct with introducing the lore of the world around each time (P1<TTP1≈P2<TTP2). The puzzles are probably less eye-catching because you rarely shoot yourself into air, they are closer to classic 2d logic timekiller games, but I find these games are what Valve need to look at to see if they want to expand the world like that in their own way. If we assume Portal 3 would be about portals, wouldn’t reinvent the formula from the ground up, I think they’d need to go for higher stakes, and seemingly expanding the world or the mission at hand (from the probably sterile conditions of it all affecting just Chel and Apperture’s robots and facilities), be it an escape into the outer world of some sort (although it overlaps with Half-Life, is it bad?) or make her herself not the only thing at stake. My only hope is that it won’t be AR\VR\whatever experience because it would make me nauseos and\or poor.

- Comment on What are signs that the game devs aren't gamers themselves? 3 weeks ago:
Singleplayer games with time-based farming simulator minigames you won’t complete without gaming the date\time in your system (easter eggs are welcome tho). Grindy platinum achievements well outside even a dedicated minority’s norms, just getting bigger numbers or save skamming for opposing endings. Button-mashers with an undisclosed randomization of a final result under the hood.

Putting a QTE or a limited time choice in a long cutscene or a level segment.

I’d do my own research (on youtube).
- Comment on Don't let it be you 3 weeks ago:
I remember the last one and the NSFL vid of a person on the hill being so insanely drunk they couldn’t recognize their hand got blow-sprayed all over the place, tried to wave with loosely hanging fingers and nulled palm, blood flowing, when others shouted at them and helped them climb down.
Just people and their life choices. They should’ve been educated better, find their place in live, get nice hobbies and all. But all they’ve nurtured in themselves over 30-something years with a heavy help of the society and the media is an ameriKKKan identity, drugging oneself into a half-conscious being and celebrating these two with fireworks they could’ve ripped their head off if they got the call at the time and answered it with a hand with explosives.
Other proles aren’t one’s natural enemies or obstacles, but their conditioning under existing anti-intellectual, anti-social programming, makes many of them suicidally stupid with a possible, prominent, evident danger to others.

- Comment on What's up with all the moth memes? 5 weeks ago:
One person collected\created a ton of them and started to post them in droves to set a trend other would follow for a while. While the amount of them is moderate by reddit standards, smaller Lemmy userbase and it’s c/shitpost community got quite overwhelmed with that, up to the point you can’t scroll for a minute without seeing another moth meme. People got divided over the mothposting as you can see in that thread, with some choosing to ban\downvote\report them arguing they aren’t fun, too numerous and are mostly from one account, similarly to spam\flood; and some like me found it as a field for humor\creativity while bored, an event akin to what I’ve enjoyed back on r/196.
I’m not informed of any deep meaning or conspiracy theory behind it, it’s just a silly posting routine probably being someone’s project. But you can draw weird conclusions yourself, like it being a lamp seller’s campaign in the summer when their demand takes a nosedive due to more sun hours each day (yay, Lemmy’s so popular it has ad campaigns!); or, you know, it may be a commentary on how human race is captured by the idea of a weaponized atom that may eventually end it - and this is relevant when discussing the ongoing ME conflict that some see as a WW3\NewVietnam starter.
Do with that information what you will. Now that I think of it, it could be funny if the original mothposter wrote your post instead, so people mildly annoyed with their little mischief got to write a reply and then got an Aha moment recognising the username in a different community. Maybe the mothperson is you?
