- Comment on What mythologies have poor representation in media, in your opinion? 6 days ago:
Always cool seeing Yoruba stuff in media. Just watched the new season of the Castlevania spin off and it features a few different pantheons; Aztec, Yoruba, Voodoo, Egyptian. Ogun was badass and loved him telling his story.

I would definitely say so. Personally, I’d just not have one. Let them face the consequences of lack of sleep so they know how important it is. I think it’s weird that sleep schedules are never emphasized to teenagers. Probably a lot less sleep deprived teens if they were encouraged to get all the fun done before night hits and then easing into sleepy time.
But not having a set time could also backfire and they end up like I did with only sleeping like 4 hours but getting naps in whenever possible at school. Always surprises me how good the human body is at adapting.
- Comment on At least legalize all the drugs so I can numb my pain. 4 weeks ago:
I find it funny that a lot of cyberpunk settings have rampant (usually legal) drug use because employers want you to perform at any cost but real life is a boring dystopia that demands worker suffering.
- Comment on I miss them so much. 4 weeks ago:
I boil them for about 15 minutes I think. Been a while since I made them. Why an ice bath? Just run under cold water while peeling.
I don’t mean to imply you need to burn the fucker to cook it. I’ve eaten it all types of ways. I just hate liquid yolk. If I pop one the yolk runs all over and just ruins the dish for me.
- Comment on I miss them so much. 4 weeks ago:
That’s actually how I like it. I can’t stand liquid yolk, love it when solid.
- Comment on After Years of Struggling To Be Noticed, My Indie Game Was Covered By VICE 5 weeks ago:
It’s cool you guys allow it. I find banning self-promotion is such a stupid rule for a games community. It’s cool seeing people make games, too!
- Comment on Is there really a difference between my understanding the phrase "go for a walk" and my dog understanding the phrase "go for a walk"? 1 month ago:
I think it’s more you as a person understand that the sentence is that, a sentence. You understand how the sentence is made, why it means what it means, not just what it means.
The dog only understands the what.
Doesn’t mean you still can’t help teach dogs to communicate. Even saw a segment recently on PBS about dogs learning to use buttons that produce words and using them to make short sentences to communicate with their owners.

Just fools and their money being parted.

Well shit that answers my question as well. I’d definitely set him straight on his “disappointing” because it doesn’t seem like he respects an agreement.
Good luck separating that man child from his money at least.

Wild how this is a controversial comment when Lemmy is supposedly left leaning.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Never been homeless but I’d definitely take it over slavery. It has to be better than being a flesh robot.
Not only is freedom priceless (my opinion), but I’m sure as hell not enriching someone else to my own detriment.

Why not just stream it?

Sorry if prying, but why didn’t your mother just get alimony? Easier to get if the other parent has good income, no?

Are they redeemable to Steam or direct download? Long as it’s not through EGS, cool.

What’s this about free games?
- Comment on Phoenix Labs (creators of Dauntless and Fae Farm) just laid off most of their dev team 1 month ago:
I think the issue is more that VC’s prioritize draining money out of what they acquire instead of continuing with what works for longer term gains.
- Comment on Phoenix Labs (creators of Dauntless and Fae Farm) just laid off most of their dev team 1 month ago:
If you worked on Dauntless, just want to say I appreciate your part! Only played it for a while at release because the grind turned me off but it’s been sad seeing news pop up of how it has been going downhill. Was such a fun game.
Sucks that good game devs get laid off because the leaders are asleep at the wheel unless it involves monetization.

Why is this even downvoted.
- Comment on Call of Duty's massive development budgets revealed: $700 million for Black Ops Cold War 2 months ago:
Give them Titanfall 2 if you want them to play a good shooter. Sure, they might come out of the campaign with depression, but certainly not with heads filled with propaganda!

I feel like that’s more on the parents for not informing their child about the MIC and how they basically sign themselves away to be government property.
- Comment on this is controllable now: guy has moving robot messing with stuff in his house and blabbering TTS under internet control 2 months ago:
Yeah I was surprised someone actually lived there. I thought it was just some random abandoned house the guy left the robot in so we could explore but we catched a glimpse of him behind a door watching TV.

Nicer than me. I’d stay away from this rat nest.
- Comment on this is controllable now: guy has moving robot messing with stuff in his house and blabbering TTS under internet control 2 months ago:
Funniest shit ever. Someone was just driving it into walls in a hallway that looked abandoned. I took control when it went idle and maneuvered to what looked to be a bathroom. Someone else turned it around and spotted a mirror at floor level.

I’d be saying the same if OP’s son was his daughter. I’d never have guessed them.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Wow is this me? Same situation, but conflicted because even though I find him an awful person he’s always provided for my family and continues to let me live rent free. We probably interact once a week.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
This is always an option. You don’t have to force it. As a personal example, I love pretty much everyone in my family but I don’t share any of their interests. Just talk with your son and be supportive like how the poster says. Who knows, might find some common interest eventually.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
I can see why you made this post. What a peculiar set of interests. Could probably find some crafts to do with him.

Jesus, found a Black Mirror writer.
