- Comment on Obsidian's The Outer Worlds 2 Underperformed, and There Won't Be a Third - IGN 7 hours ago:
I feel that the game would have been fine if it was an actually game worth playing. The first game already was kinda meh and I don’t even know who demanded a sequel. Nobody is going to pay 80 Euro for a mediocre game when they could get a bunch of indie games with that money.

They are just trying to intimidate the protesters. They are a bunch of cowards walking in a herd to feel safe.

- Comment on Steam adds official support for game version-specific Workshop mods 3 weeks ago:
Yeah but that’s on game devs to enable it. A lot of devs don’t want to because they have deal with people complaining about bugs and issues on older versions that are already fixed in newer versions.

- Comment on Ars Technica’s Top 20 video games of 2025 5 weeks ago:
I honestly don’t know anyone who has enjoyed Civ VII and my sample group is made up of people that really love strategy games. It’s such a mess compared to past entries in the series. I am surprised to see it in a top 20.
- Comment on In 2015, the Fortingall Yew, one of the oldest trees in Europe, decided trans rights are tree rights and switched its sex to female 🏳️⚧️ eat shit transphobes 1 month ago:
People have no idea what is or isn’t natural. A lot of animals and plants change sex due to various factors during their life.
- Comment on During the lead up to the Holocaust did the N... regime just kidnap people who they even thought were Jews? Kind of like ICE is doing to citizens today? 2 months ago:
It was a process. They started by forbidding Jews from holding certain jobs like doctors, judges, lawyers and and also public jobs. They then pass the Nuremberg Laws that restricted citizenship to Germans and made it mandatory for Jews to wear specific marks on their clothes that marked them as Jewish (the yellow Star of David was one but there were others). Then they required Jews to live only in specific parts of cities, the ghettos. The last step just consisted of them coming and grabbing everyone from the ghettos and everyone that was wearing the marks, the groundwork had been already set.

Please make a report. Even if he had a previous case that was closed it will still show up and can help establish a pattern of behaviour which can make it easier to obtain stuff like restraining orders.
And make sure to talk to a lawyer, they can advise you much better than any answer you can get online. You can also ask the lawyer to make sure that any photos he may have uploaded to porn sites or watever are taken down.
Stay safe and make sure to tell the kid that she did the right thing speaking out. Hope it works out for you both.

Damn, I didn’t realize our comments on a random lemmy instance have the same power as Elon Musk’s billions.

So are they going to ban Tylenol? Isn’t it one of the most common OTC painkillers?
- Comment on What's going on with imgur right now? 5 months ago:
Not anymore. They turned it into it’s own social media. They have comments and stuff and apparently a lot of them really hate reddit lol.

Those are ROMAN numerals.

Having actual people read your chats is so 2015. They probably have some shitty LLM doing it now, Grok probably.
- Comment on President Trump shows President Zelenskyy and President Macron his 4 More Years hats 5 months ago:
Where do you think Trump makes his hats? Also China can make good quality stuff but you have to pay for it. If you cheap out you get what you pay for.

We truly are in the worst timeline.

Some traditions also hold that a vampire cannot enter a house unless invited by the owner; after the first invitation they can come and go as they please.
Depends who you ask.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 months ago:
Eminent Domain can’t be declared by some random police officer, it’s a complex process that takes years and it needs a specific valid public purpose. Some countries require the government to publish a declaration that specifies what public utility the project that will be built on that land will bring.

When you have a mortgage you still are the owner of the house. You just owe the bank money and the house is just a collateral for that money. If you default on your loan then the bank can take possession of the house to cover the loan and then would become the owners, but only in that case.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 months ago:
It wouldn’t work. The vampire needs the permission of the owner to enter the house. The person who issued the warrant is not the owner of the house.

No? He set up a date for him, he can just not go if it bothers him.

- Comment on Dirt Man 5 months ago:
Arktos means bear in Ancient Greek and the name Arctic comes from Arktikos which could be translated as near the bear. One theory is that it was named because of the Ursa constellations (Ursa Major and Ursa Minor). Antarctica just means opposite of the Arctic.
The scientific name for Brown Bears is Ursus Arctos. Ursus means bear in Latin while Arctos means bear in Ancient Greek so their name translated is Bear Bear.

I guess a concrete lot is better in your opinion.

It’s a good representation of this new regime. Tear down nature and replace it with a parking lot.

- Comment on And so it was 6 months ago:
Cockroach is not the scientific name for them. It’s the common name. Most roaches are part of the Blattodea order together with termites. The common name came about in the early 17th century (as cacaroch ): from Spanish cucaracha . The spelling change was due to association with cock and roach.(according to Wikipedia).
Depending on where you live there are different species of what is considered the common/house cockroach: The most common are: Blatella Germanica (German Cockroach), Periplaneta Americana (American Cockroach), Periplaneta Australasiae (Australian cockroach) and Blatta orientalis (Oriental Cockroach).
