  “Shagger Mike’s Stag-do '14” above a penis with a top hat.

  HR: “This guy’s exec material”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Happy Easter from the POTUS⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He doesn’t post on twitter any more I think. Just his own site.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Disappointed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Haha the reaction guy does need a Winterfell style fur cloak around his shoulders though.

  But like, of LARP quality though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So, is the USA screwed?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Screwed is always relative.

  I’m hearing chat that immigrants from places like Turkey or India are going “oh yeah this is what it’s like back home”.

  So it’s possible it just goes full neoliberal (i.e. no consequences or regulations for the rich) and the division of wealth grows even further.

  Provided he doesn’t cause a war or some kind of other mass-death problem (chemical spills, reactor meltdown etc) it might just have a cost primarily in human suffering, as opposed to human life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SteamOS expands beyond Steam Deck⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The main thing stopping me is that I only use my PC for gaming, and I know the support for drivers etc isn’t as good on Linux (though I know this is debated).

  However if Linux became more centralised, with a “gaming first” distro like this, the graphics drivers would have a “main test case” to work with.

  This is my theory anyway.

  At the very least it should be his handle/nickname in jail

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some video game quotes that is stuck in your head?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Warhammer Rogue trader has one character laugh and shout “haha! Reduced to dust” on a kill.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I don't trust like that.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This does have the vibe of those pro-billionaire articles the Washington Post puts out…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Important information⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I won’t understand until I hear piratesoftware explain it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Concord servers are now offline. Thank you to all the freegunners who have joined us in the Concord galaxy"⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh don’t worry, there’s going to be more.

  A lot of companies are working on live service games in hope of being the next overwatch/destiny.

  Some even have multiple (like Sony) in the hope that even one of them takes off.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm terrified of the Netherlands now⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is an excellent shitpost and made me laugh very hard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Progress happens with every death⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for taking the time to explain that so clearly! It’s really interesting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Highlander reboot, starring Henry Cavill in the lead role, the movie is set to start filming in early 2025.⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The first time I watched highlander (I hadn’t heard anything about the movie beforehand) I thought the actor must be Swedish, as his accent was so strange. Took me until the end of the movie he was just trying to be Scottish…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it just me or do Lemmy communities tend to skew left wing? Why might this be?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I see a bit of everything on here, but I do like that voicing leftist ideals (not sure about left wing) doesn’t get you shot down immediately from all sides (as it would in a lot of other places).

  I imagine that in general leftists exist, but avoid posting in other places due to the abuse they’d receive for doing so.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gen alpha has no fucking clue⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a “state police open up-er”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Funny, those guys don't usually agree on that much⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That is… a lot of people

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Soup⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It helps to set your preferred age range from 18-110 for full coverage⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It happened where they knew you wouldn’t see them.

  Unfortunately, there were no survivors.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk have a baby⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It made me cry laugh.

  Because I sat there for a minute and tried to work out how it was their names.

  Then I realised it wasn’t the setup to a joke. It’s just a the echo of a human, doing tricks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Way Forward, an update from the team behind Cities: Skylines⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  We’re riding this wave over in the Total War community too. Broken game, weak and overpriced DLC.

  We kicked off (and then all their other games managed to flop at once, so they came crawling back) and now we’ve got a notable amount more effort into the DLC coming at the end of the month, as well as price cuts, refunds and redoing of the bad DLC.

  Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t, but I’m seeing positive movements in general on legacy resting-on-laurels games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They really want people to RTO⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not a condition.

  It’s a word someone made up to shame people into going against their best interests.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dragon’s Dogma 2 Title Update 1.050 Adds ‘Start New game’, Max 30fps Option, More⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  There were some great levels.

  Like, the abandoned ice prison was great.

  And uhhhh… well no other ones are currently in my memory. That can’t be a bad sign, can it?

  Man that zero-g casino could have been so cool. But it was just like… nothing.

  You’re not wrong.

  Check out the Behind the Bastards episodes to see how his charitable efforts often end up more destructive than not.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EA flop Immortals of Aveum reportedly cost around $125 million, former dev says "a AAA single-player shooter in today's market was a truly awful idea"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I also don’t want to be marketed at. If it’s good I’ll find out organically.

  And I don’t want to find out about it at/before release-time. Because then I’ll want to buy it on release.

  That’s the time the game is most buggy and least optimised (maybe also unbalanced too).

  Complaining it didn’t sell well enough on release is some real crybaby stuff as well.

  “It didn’t go exactly the best way I wanted it to go 😭😭”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kaiser Permanente frontline workers to vote on strike⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I always get Kaiser Permanente mixed up with Chef Boyardee.

  I think it’s the “title followed by fun word” format that gets me.

  But yeah my point is that I thought this was a HORECA strike (those are desperately needed) but I’m happy to hear about medical workers striking too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The more I think about it, the more the 5 minute car commercial in Barbie bugs me.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly this is every car chase in every high profile movie.

  They somehow stay very clean and shiny the whole time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why? There is enough space on the parking lot⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Solution: cover your hands with jelly and make a big scene of climbing over the cars to use the sidewalk, leaving jelly handprints everywhere.

  If confronted about the jelly prints, just say you were eating a really big donut.
