  Of course.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does the average person know markdown?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  And yet you just used it! Some parts of markdown were made to be intuitive and natural like:

  1. Numbering your items
  2. will automatically format them
  3. into ordered lists

  • and if you use - it’s an unordered list

  • same with asterisk

  Easy to see in EU, Slavic people are seen as less than, even though we’re as white as everyone else around and in the particular case of my country, we have more Germanic genes than Slavic, but hey, prejudices don’t need to make sense.

  That might be true, but my point was you cannot say someone did the mechanic earlier if it’s the same company.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Palworld devs confirm game changes due to the Nintendo / Pokemon lawsuit⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Which might be the exact reason, given it’s created by Nintendo?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Palworld devs confirm game changes due to the Nintendo / Pokemon lawsuit⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Fuck Nintendo. Someone should explain it to them Luigi Mangione style.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Palworld devs confirm game changes due to the Nintendo / Pokemon lawsuit⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, the mechanic is not a mount in the usual sense, but holding a flying Pal, as in you’re not saddling it but holding it and letting it slowly glide down.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Abandoned Chamber Ruins⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Got some Horizon Zero Dawn vibes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep. For example during the Soviet occupation here, the Colorado potato beetle got imported here somehow and given it doesn’t have any natural predators, it destroyed potatoes like crazy.

  Well, guess what? According to Soviet propaganda it was intentionally done by Americans to destroy our “paradise” and our food.

  Everything bad that happened was because the evil imperialists worked against our paradise.

  The country being so poor it couldn’t afford enough toilet paper for its citizens? Westerners! All foreign fruit being very scarce and people standing in long lines to get it, while the ones in the back knew they probably aren’t getting any today? Also westerners’ fault.

  Propaganda is not the usual over-the-top stories, it’s subtle. Would you today believe if someone told you that Americans have imported the Colorado potato beetle intentionally? And would you, if it was consistent with everything you’ve heard since you were a kid?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Transitioning in STEM⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh, being burned out means exactly (most of) that. Especially being rude is a huge sign of being burned out, because you just can’t muster the energy to be positive, because everything about your work pisses you off, including your coworkers, customers, bosses and the work itself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Transitioning in STEM⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think hospitals do count, being burned out could be an official requirement for the job and you wouldn’t notice a difference.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Transitioning in STEM⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is anecdotal, but male teachers get a special treatment if the school staff is mostly women.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do some communities get like 50 members minutes after its creation?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep, this is the reason, the service that facilitates this is called Lemmy Federate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Well, that's no ordinary rabbit!⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was in a dinopark recently and there were some bone replicas, footprints etc. and I was constantly like “how the hell didn’t the scientists see that it’s just a giant chicken?”

  Some of it is extremely obvious.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨STOP destroying videogames⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, not even 500k people in the whole of EU care about this apparently, so we get what we deserve, I guess.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨STOP destroying videogames⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It really looked like it’ll be signed quickly in the beginning, I was really hopeful.

  Now I’m not really sure it will pass.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Diablo 4's first big collab is Berserk? Yeah, ok, that one's pretty good I guess⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hmm, that reminds me I should check whether Berserk actually moved somewhere, the quality went down since the author died.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo confirms $90 price for full Breath of the Wild experience on Switch 2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone also always forgets that they save money on distribution massively. And that the amount of games sold has increased significantly.

  It’s not as simple as dollars had more value, games should cost more.

  Does Dungeons 3 or 4 count? If so, these games are great.

  That game’s really great, definitely better than at launch. Still many bugs, but it’s been fun playing with my partner on our local server.

  These are birds, their brains can’t process cubes as a shape, that’s why their fractals are made of triangles.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's the law!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Is this a logical statement? And does the runtime support short-circuiting? It would mean you don’t have to obey physics if you don’t love your mom, which is neat.

  I think its real name rhymes with Fthulhu.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Stick to the training, your brain will figure out the rest. Unless you’re missing self-preservation instinct, your brain will do its best to survive and avoid psychological trauma.

  That includes trauma from killing others, you will dull in time naturally.

  Important note: you will get psychological trauma, there’s no way to avoid that. Your brain will put up some defenses (the kind of the defenses is highly individual) to prevent the trauma fucking up your life in the short term, but it will fuck you up in the long term. Only therapy can help there, though it’s very unlikely to be cured entirely at all.

  If you go to war and get traumatized, find a therapist as fast as you can. The longer the trauma is untreated, the deeper it becomes part of your personality. And by that I mean really as fast as you can. If you get a chance to speak to a therapist 20 minutes after you go through something traumatic, do it, even if you feel like you’re managing. If you can’t access one that quickly (which is likely during an armed conflict), do it as soon as you’re able to.

  I think there’s an implicit “chicken” before the egg: what was first, a chicken or a [chicken] egg?
