  let’s make sure we keep them to that standard then.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Helldivers 2 players rip into Arrowhead for 'straight-up ridiculous' Killzone crossover prices, CEO defends the choice⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Can you easily farm SC in the game? Yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Helldivers 2 players rip into Arrowhead for 'straight-up ridiculous' Killzone crossover prices, CEO defends the choice⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Just because others have it worse, doesn’t mean you should settle for slightly better than terrible.

  I read your comment. I didn’t downvote.

  I’m using the “you” in the colloquial sense, i see that wasn’t apparent to you. (You as in you the singular individual)

  I understand you are against kernel level anti cheat. That’s ok. That’s an opinion. But your argument that it’s some kind of secret which games have it or not, is not a matter of opinion. It’s verifiable. And It’s just not true. It’s not a secret. You can easily find out if you want to.

  You can make the argument that platforms should make publishers divulge that information on the games page. And I say sure, why not.

  But it always will be your responsibility to make sure you know what you’re installing.

  Unfortunately. It is an armsrace against cheaters. And 1 single cheater can easily ruin the entire experience for hundreds of players. I understand why games might want it. I hope they can find more clever ways of detecting cheats without it.

  As a final word. Lemmy is a big place. It’s utterly ridiculous of you to assume I’m the one who downvoted.

  People need to take responsibility of their own machines.

  While they might not hold out a sign that says “KERNEL LEVEL ANTI CHEAT”. There is information available to make an informed decision.

  Your cake and fork argument makes no sense at all. The game company isn’t telling you what you can and can’t do with your hardware. But they are telling you what you will be installing. It’s there if you know where to look. And if you don’t know where to look. You have the combined knowledge of the world at your fingertips for guidance.

  I don’t know what you do. But when I buy a cake. I look at the ingredients to see what and how much it contains of various things. If I don’t like what I see, I won’t be buying it. Because I certainly won’t be eating it.

  And I’m also not going to buy a plastic fork to eat it with. See how I made that decision. The cake company didn’t make me buy a certain fork, and the fork company didn’t make me buy a certain cake. I decide.

  It’s ultimately your responsibility to understand what you are installing. Information is available.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it time to start a campaign against kernel-level anticheat?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No one is forcing you to install their game.

  It’s so easy to look up what kind of anti cheat games use.

  You can’t eat the cake and have it too.

  They don’t have a right to install anything without your consent. However. You pressed the “Install” button. And you boxed in “I understand” and clicked “I agree”.

  Did you know. That every single year. Millions of people are born that has never heard of Jaguar. Because why would they?

  Last time I ever heard someone talk about Jaguar was 20 years ago when they sold their f1 team.

  Prior to that. I have not given them as much as a single thought. So yes. Them changing their logo certainly did what it was supposed to do. Get people to talk about Jaguar.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You know what, fuck you [un-Jags uar icon]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not the first time they’ve made a “drastic” change.

  As a matter of. They’ve had a logo similar to this before in the 50’s. With just the word “Jaguar”.

  You have the world’s combined knowledge at your fingertips. And you choose to be ignorant and blur out something so stupid as “But it’s the first time they’ve made a change as drastic as this.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You know what, fuck you [un-Jags uar icon]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why would no one recognize it? Hardly the first time they’ve changed their logo.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You know what, fuck you [un-Jags uar icon]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  First step is increasing brand recognition. No one will buy if they don’t know you exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You know what, fuck you [un-Jags uar icon]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re all making fun of it but this new style did exactly what it intended to do. Everyone is talking about them now.

  Oh don’t get me wrong. We got living wages for all full time jobs. Including waiters. We just don’t have a minimum wage (officially). It’s sorted out by the unions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon doesn't tip⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As a European. What are you talking about? That’s certainly not the case in my part of Europe. And we don’t even have a minimum wage. (Officially)

  Football violence is very real though. Let’s not forget that and make sure we are in good safe areas when out.

  I’m sure my friend took me to a place that he knows had good people in it knowing I’d wear my country’s shirt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon lives in Japan⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I was in the UK, watching a football game between my country and England in a pub with an English friend. I had a team shirt on. It was a good game, a close game, in the minutes we lost and England won.

  I Shake some hands and go to the bathroom. I have to shit, go to a stall, and just as I’m about to close someone pushes the door open, forcing themselves in. Life is flashing before My eyes, my entire body shakes from all the adrenaline now pumping, I’m ready to fight or die trying.

  He says (drunk off his mind) “YOU STOOD UP DURING YOUR ANTHEM! I RESPECT THAT! GOOD GAME!! GOOD GAME!!” as he reaches to shake my hand and pat my arm, “yeah man good game, sorry but I need to shit mate”

  I thought I was about to die, stabbed and beat to death in a toilet. When it was just a drink Britt trying to be nice.

  I’ve never been so happy that my country lost a game as that night (Mt shirt also bought me a lot of beers, felt like I needed them after thinking I was about to die)

  I can’t answer that. I suggest you ask OP that question instead of me.

  Even though you are in Jail, you may buy and sell property, buy and sell houses and hotels and collect rents.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Monopoly⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Get the fuck out. In monopoly it’s called Jail. And Monopoly is the topic being discussed.

  So no one cares about if it’s called Prison or Jail in the real world. We’re not talking about the real world. We’re talking about Monopoly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Monopoly⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Jail is the best place to be lategame. Don’t have to pay someone rent if you can’t move. And no risk of picking up a tax card.

  It’s not a punishment to sit in jail, it’s a privilege, if I could. I’d spend the entire game in jail. It’s the only place you’re safe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s the funny part. If you think my point is irrelevant, so is yours.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not at all. But the question I raised from the start was that it matters where the meat is from.

  Just like it matters where the plants are from.

  Farmers have been using pesticides that kill bees in the millions. That will factually do more harm to the ecosystem than “the meat industry” ever could.

  But maybe you want to focus on agriculture that doesn’t use pesticides that are known to kill bees. Maybe then you think it matters. You know, when it suits you.

  So the whole point of “but it matters where” is very relevant. A lunch resturant business in London. Isn’t exactly representative of a normal every day person in the slightest.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Also I don’t see why that matters

  Yeah, that’s the problem. You can’t even bother to read and understand the studies you link. You see the title and thinks “ah yes, that agrees with my agenda”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  meals offered in the lunch service at an institutional food service establishment in London, UK over their whole life cycles.

  Maybe you should actually read the studies you link.
