- Comment on Cities: Skylines 2 DLC delayed so studio can focus on PC fixes 1 week ago:
That’s probably all quite techy stuff though, so I imagine that the designers and artists etc are still going to be working on new stuff

See the steam news feed here: store.steampowered.com/news/app/949230
The CO Word of the Week has high level info, while the patch notes show what they have done.
It looks like they have hit the low hanging fruit and are now spending time on getting the more difficult (but impactful) engine stuff fixed
- Comment on Attempted right-wing takeover of National Trust backed by Nigel Farage fails! 1 week ago:
It’s discussing the guardian article linked in the parent comment of this chain
- Comment on can a hacker hack my accounts remotely?? 2 weeks ago:
Make sure you keep your software (operating system, browser etc) up to date and don’t install sketchy software.
Install a reputable add blocker on your browser as that can help.

Email addresses are pretty much public, you give it out to people all the time. It’s no different to giving your physical address, it allows someone to link you to a location, but your house is there anyway if someone walks down the road and wants to break in.

Yeh, but the cheaper ones are worse…

These are the premium brand near me 🫤

Lots of games are a lot more fun if you roleplay them. Forget your meta knowledge, what would the character do? This adds a lot to strategy games as it adds challenge and puts you in interesting situations.
Playing without savescumming is also a good challenge in a bug free game. I try to only savescum for bugs/missclicks.
For MMOs - play through to the endgame with randoms only, no guild/org etc.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
I would argue about the ‘fun’ of some of them, but definitely good challenges.
- Comment on The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion 3 weeks ago:
I’m waiting for the mod update, hoping they will have fixed most of the bugs/performance by then and the mods can fix the rest.
Glad that the base game seems to be sound.
- Comment on Firms going bust on track for worst year since 2009 4 weeks ago:
It’s been something that I have seen mentioned occasionally throughout the last decade, because of the low interest rates it was possible for barley profitable companies to survive. Now the rates are going up it’s less so.
- Comment on Cities: Skylines 2 devs warn players of performance problems: 'we have not achieved the benchmark we targeted' 5 weeks ago:
That’s a fair point
- Comment on Cities: Skylines 2 devs warn players of performance problems: 'we have not achieved the benchmark we targeted' 5 weeks ago:
It’s probably more bad planning then, shouldn’t they be peaking the hype just before launch?
- Comment on Cities: Skylines 2 devs warn players of performance problems: 'we have not achieved the benchmark we targeted' 5 weeks ago:
Yeh, but then there was nothing for a month!
Normally they build the hype up to the release, I have actually un-hyped coming up to this release.
- Comment on Cities: Skylines 2 devs warn players of performance problems: 'we have not achieved the benchmark we targeted' 5 weeks ago:
Their marketing has been awful though. They had a great build up with all the deep dive videos… Then nothing for a month?!?
I originally thought it was going to come out a month ago, just after the end of the videos, then was shocked to find out it was still a month away.
I guess they wanted some time so they could address any feedback they got?
- Comment on Where can I find recipes without the author's personal anecdotes? 1 month ago:
The BBC has loads of recipes. No adds (in UK at least) and minimal fluff
- Comment on Designs chosen for mini nuclear reactors 1 month ago:
You either need batteries or a Europe wide energy grid. It’s quite possible for it to be still (not windy) over the whole of the UK for example.
- Comment on Designs chosen for mini nuclear reactors 1 month ago:
It’s probably the only environmentally friendly base load option other than overbuilding renewables and building lots of battery storage.
Nuclear is probably cleaner than building that many batteries…
The micro reactors aim to (hopefully) reduce the main issues with traditional nuclear power.
- Comment on Fireball in Oxfordshire turns sky orange after lightning strike 1 month ago:
Yeh, seems like an oversight. Maybe they thought that as the tanks were metal they wouldn’t need it?
- Comment on Why the internet make it hard for people to self-promote 1 month ago:
The quality of things being self promoted will on average be lower than that of content being posted by other people. (If your posting other people’s content, it’s because you think it’s good, if you are posting yours it’s just because you made it)
This isn’t necessarily a problem, in a small community it adds content and helps the poster grow their skills. But in a larger community it can result in a lot of low quality content.

Not sure what your trying to show here…
- Comment on London apartment block that deviates from plans must be torn down, says council 1 month ago:
I mean, the missing car part should have been obvious from the day the foundations went in…
In general agreement though, it looks like they cut a lot of corners from the original application. Should have been flagged sooner though.
- Comment on Microsoft estimated Valve’s revenue in 2021 at $6.5bn Interesting to see another view on the scale of Valve’s business 2 months ago:
I assume that’s gaming revenue not total?

…I wish politicians would do what they believe is best for the country/world instead of their party… dammit
- Comment on My entire Lemmy feed is 1 single user (bot?) reposting the same link across communities 2 months ago:
It’s not what your saying but how you said it.
Counter to your actual point, I haven’t blocked anyone yet, but I’m on a small instance so not using all and I have not subbed to many duplicate communities.

Your initial comment can either be read abrasively or tongue in cheek.
- Comment on Freebooting Twitter Account getting millions of views without credit, original creators get next to none... 2 months ago:
Is the pipes bot not doing exactly the same thing? Yet it get upvoted in this posts comments?
(Genuinely don’t know, the pipes link doesn’t load for me)
- Comment on why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread? 3 months ago:
I think most are integrated into toilets now.
- Comment on MP pledges to push for Crooked House law 3 months ago:
I’m assuming the point of it would be to make this kind of thing explicitly illegal instead of relying on arson/planning laws.
That should make it easier to prosecute those doing this kind of thing.
- Comment on People who back into parking spots: Why? 3 months ago:
You can just pull out of the spot and go, no need to change direction etc.
In a tight car park I have almost got stuck once because there wasn’t enough room for me to back out and get my nose out from between the cars on either side to move forward
