- Comment on How do you search for "amateurish" song covers? 1 week ago:
I come across these bedroom covers all the time when I’m looking for “(song name) acapella”, even though a lot of the times they’re not actually acapella versions. But sometimes they are. Love finding these and seeing another unknown person’s passion for music.

Chugging along through the Halo: Master Chief Collection.
I missed out on the series back in the day and now I’m playing through all of them. They’re great. The collection is insane value, especially since I got it on sale for like $10. 40-50 hours in and I have 1 and a half campaigns left still. Multiplayer is active and works well.
- Comment on Does the first-born child in a family "mature" faster than the later-born children? 1 week ago:
There’s a thing called Birth Order theory and it may or may not be bullshit and subject to cognitive bias, but I will say that anecdotally it seems mostly accurate when I think of my group of friends growing up and their siblings. There are definitely some exceptions though, like my friend who is the younger brother, but is more responsible than his big bro, though we suspect the older brother suffers from some sort of undiagnosed mental illness and is unwilling to get checked out. Short answer in my opinion is yes, the older sibling tends to mature faster. I do think that the older sibling has some power over the younger ones by virtue of being older and more mentally developed while growing up. Whether they use that to nurture and protect, or abuse the younger sibling is more a matter of personality than birth order though.
For your second question about feeling immature, I think it can happen to anyone at any time. Being put in a tough situation and feeling helpless about it can make a grown person feel like a child, despite being an otherwise mature adult. For me it happened less the more I became independent. But it still happens. For example, if car issues pop up I can get the feeling of “oh shit, I need an adult”. I think personality is a big factor here too. As an only child my perception is that I feel less willing to ask for help than others, at least until I try to find a solution myself. Some friends who were younger siblings seemed to always be getting catered to, getting rides to places, etc. That might also be influenced by other factors like family’s finances.

Orangeman constantly talks about taking over Greenland.
He called it Iceland like 5 times in his WEF speech. He doesn’t even know what country he’s talking about.
- Comment on Is it possible to cool my body enough to not sweat while exercising? 2 weeks ago:
More fans and/or a portable A/C certainly seem to help. If there is air moving over you while you sweat it will evaporate faster and cool you down as intended, making you more comfortable. You can’t really stop sweat altogether, only manage it.

Anyway, I just discovered that English has the same word for the crabs that walk on the ground and the ones that swim around. Those taste completely differently.
Please describe the difference

- Comment on Pet Peeves with Games? 4 weeks ago:
Getting lost. I like exploring until I’m done exploring, and then I have a low tolerance for wandering aimlessly. I don’t need an indicator and a map to tell me where to go, but I appreciate a sign post or NPC to nudge me in the right direction if I need it. Sometimes level/world design does not help in areas that look samey, so landmarks or some sort of unique feature are appreciated.
- Comment on Linux has had a great year, but there are two reasons I can't tear myself away from Windows 1 month ago:
I have to run “fsck /dev/sda9” every time my Mint laptop battery dies. No idea why or how to automate that if it’s possible. The last time took like 9 hours to check everything, AND THEN told me I had to run some check again and can’t use “-y” and had to manually enter “y” for every prompt. Wtf and why? I thought Mint was the normie distro made for me.
- Comment on Do you preorder games? 1 month ago:
Preorder, no. I don’t usually buy brand new games. FF Tactics remake was the most recent and I needed to see a few days of reviews to build the trust to buy it. Maybe if Fromsoft releases another one-player game I’ll consider that. I’m not sure the types of developers I usually buy games from tend to even do preorder, it seems to be bigger studios from what I have seen.
Early access, yes for a few select indie developers that I want to support. ATLYSS because it’s priced low and looks great. Into the Unwell will be a day 1 purchase once it reaches early access, since I have played the closed beta and know I want it. Trinity 64 will be another one I’m excited for if it gets an EA release. I’m ok with EA for these because they’re the types of games I yearn for and I want more of them, and I know my contribution makes an impact to the devs.

It looks great and it’s been on my wishlist. Unfortunately the price is not right for me yet, and there were other games of higher priority on my wishlist for now. Maybe next year.

Ok look… nobody is fooled that you’ve joined Lemmy 9 hours ago and are trying to self-advertise. You’ve been spamming your video link everywhere it doesn’t belong, and not said a word otherwise. You’re probably going to get banned once enough people get annoyed and report you for spam.
Lemmy users as a whole HATE ads.
If you want to share your video I recommend being sincere about it and put it somewhere like !Bushcraft@lemmy.ml Yes, it’s pretty dead there. It could use someone to post content, like yourself. Just stop trying to disguise it, and instead be like “I’m a bushcraft Youtuber and I made a log cabin”.
Best wishes from a bushcraft appreciator / Lemmy user.

Lots of good suggestions already, but I don’t think I saw anyone mention Twisted Metal: Black. It’s very dark and lots of fun.
