- Comment on Cannot load additional pages in Jerboa 3 days ago:
Just chiming in to say I’ve been having the same issue. Pages beyond the first (so maybe about 10 posts or so at a time) will not load and get stuck with a red “pages failed loading” error at the bottom of the screen in Jerboa. This behavior started over the weekend. All other navigation seems fine, I can go to a community and sort by any of filters but only the first page of posts will be visible. I’ve got about a half dozen different accounts on different instances and the issue only happens when logged into this instance at this time.

Ah, thanks for the correction I’ll edit the comment. I always think NC for some reason, but both Carolinas are pretty interchangable in my mind.

Huh, that’s somehow way worse. I always was under the impression that it was only Myrtle Beach.
- Comment on Your stupid decal finally makes sense! 1 month ago:
I’ll copy my response to the other person who was confused.
In America, there’s a very popular car windshield decal sticker that people put on that says “Salt Life.” It specifically just means someone visited a popular beach vacation spot called Myrtle Beach, NC. The people who put it on tend to being almost exclusively sporty douchebags and suburban moms.
That’s about it.

I’ll never not read those stickers as “Slut Life” because of the idiotic font they chose.

It’s not gatekeeping, it’s a discussion of semantics. The official definition of cooking is the preparation of food by using heat.

- Comment on Final Fantasy Creator Reveals Which Entry He Thinks Is 'Most Complete', and It's Not Final Fantasy 7 2 months ago:
For anyone that’s curious but doesn’t want to click on an ad-riddled IGN link - it’s FF 6. No they really don’t elaborate why, the best idea of ‘why’ you get is that it was the last game with pixel art.
- Comment on Valve lifts NDA on Deadlock, streaming and talking about the game is now allowed. 2 months ago:
I was specifically asking how Deadlock felt.
I’ve played quite a bit of MOBA’s before, coincidentally the other big third person ones Smite and Paragon, so I’ve got a decent feel for builds and macroplay and I’m not necessarily worried about those aspects.
I grew up as a console gamer but exclusively play on PC now so I’ve found for fps games I have trouble competing because my aim isn’t as great.

I really wanted battleborn to succeed on release even though it was just kind of flawed from a design standpoint. I kind of gave up on competitive fps games though since then though.
With how chaotic the fights look like and how high the ttk looks to be, is the game still fun at lower-mid skill levels?

Okay wow. This was really uncalled for. What did I ever do to you?

Honestly I kind of just figured I was going to take the L with how much I know is modified. I appreciate you doing the legwork and letting me know!

I’m a new Steamdeck owner so I just wanted to get used to the console honestly. I have Moguri installed on PC, but I have a hard time playing jrpgs on anything but handhelds nowadays.
I know there are tutorials, but at this point I’d mostly be worried that it’s not compatible with an existing save. I don’t want to redo all the Choco Hot and Cold 😂

Damn. I just finished the first disk on a playthrough on Steam deck with the base remaster. I had seriously considered modding it at first but didn’t and now I regret it 🥲

The bear has a circle beard. A goatee is traditionally only the hair under your chin, but the definition is pretty loose nowadays.
- Comment on Mildred 4 months ago:
This excerpt from the linked Wikipedia article for the name abstractly summarizes it nicely.
It reached the rank of the sixth most popular name for girls in the United States in 1912 and maintained that popularity through 1920, but then its popularity dropped quickly afterward.[2]
The name Mildred was very common about a hundred years ago, but never really at any other point since. If you see the name Mildred without seeing the person in question your first thoughts will be that they are extremely old. That’s really about it.
- Comment on lemmy test how ur client handles long posts 4 months ago:
That’s how it shows up for me at least. Reduced aspect ratio and the top/bottoms of images are cropped to a standard size. I have been needing to wait a second for the image to fully load it’s full format rather than needing to interact with a post though - it just happens automatically when it’s in view on the screen.

Maybe stop stirring the pot? At this point it really just seems like you’re the problem here with how petty and antagonistic you’re being.
- Comment on favourite drink 5 months ago:
I’ve never had the flavored ones, but not really. It’s actually a very smooth drink. It’s a neutral spirit made from sweet potato so it tastes kind of like vodka, but without the bite because it’s half the alcohol content.

The iconic police Crown Vic model was discontinued like a decade ago. Like 80% of police cars I see nowadays are SUV’s.
On March 12, 2010, Ford Motor Company unveiled the Ford Police Interceptor Sedan. While sharing a nameplate with the Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, the Police Interceptor Sedan was a variant of the sixth-generation Ford Taurus, shifting from the long-running Panther chassis to an all-wheel drive version of the D3 architecture.[29]
In a design decision, the Police Interceptor Sedan did not adopt the Taurus nameplate, as it was sold alongside the Ford Police Interceptor Utility, derived from the Ford Explorer. Along with heavier-duty components and a redesigned interior, the Police Interceptor Sedan adopted higher-performance steering and suspension tuning. The standard engine was a 3.5-L V6, but a 3.7-L V6 (shared with the Mustang) later became the standard power plant. A twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6 (shared with the Taurus SHO) was also available as an option.[30]
The Ford Police Interceptor Sedan was discontinued alongside the North American Ford Taurus model on March 1, 2019.[31] The Ford Police Interceptor Utility remains in production as of 2022 as Ford’s main police vehicle, sharing its design with the civilian market Ford Explorer.[32]

- Comment on Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem ceases development, will shut down multiplayer in September 5 months ago:
What were the technical issues that they’re referring to? I remember seeing gameplay that look clunky with odd power progression at launch(or maybe a beta), but I don’t know how it progressed from there. I’m not a Diablo-style ARPG player so I never picked it up, but can anyone fill me in?
- Comment on Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance - The Ultimate Beginning | NSW, PS5/4, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, PC 5 months ago:
Yeah I felt the same on some level, but the performance wasn’t too bad to the point it was impactful until you got to the final open area at least.
I wish the steamdeck had existed when it SMT released or I would have waited a couple years for the PC release. JRPG’s just lend themselves so well tobeing played on handhelds.

I should have known better than to buy a release version of an Atlus game. New content looks good though and hopefully the new “true” ending is a bit better now than the neutral route because I found it to be a bit lacklustre.
- Comment on Kingdom Hearts is coming to Steam - June 13 5 months ago:
I agree full price is steep, but to be fair 1.5/2.5 is like 4 or 5 different games (plus a few cinematic movies for lore from the obscure handheld games) in one and the remasters are actually really well done and add a bunch of content. I don’t know how they perform on PC though since it’s a Square port.
- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 6 months ago:
I was in his stream when people sent him the contract they signed just to get the key. Wild. The game is janky looking as fuck so they definitely know how bad it is.

unparalleled equine realism
This is going to be the Red Dead realistic horse testicle thing all over again isn’t it

- Comment on After 10,000+ hours grinding, MapleStory's first level 300 player slams the brakes at 299.99 to rant about the MMO and then quit, all on a dev-promoted stream 6 months ago:
No, I dont and if you truly need to be pedantic, a logarithmic curve makes even less sense. It’s a generally linear experience curve with each level being about 20-30% more than the previous, but the number get exceptionally large after a while. Level requirements aren’t scaled based on time required, they’re scaled on number experience points required.
