Tbh I find it much more surprising that there's an overlap of bears and stupid people than I do smart kids and dumb adults.
I've met an unfortunate amount of people that would struggle to dump water out of their boots with the instructions written on the bottom of the sole.
Jesus. Anything over 20c is too much for me. I can't even fathom what 50c feels like and I hope I never have to experience that.
Nier Automata has, IMO, the best story to exist in game format. Gameplay itself isn't anything special but it's fun enough to keep you engaged, but the story is the real reason to play this game.
Can't recommend this game enough.
After hexbear got defederated from most of the major instances, the fucking losers just make alts on different instances so they can continue defending that propaganda filled shithole. Now .ml seems like the new worst, no matter what you do these no-life losers will find a way to spread their bullshit.
Takes much more effort to try and stop them than it does for these losers to make alts unfortunately.
What is my purpose?
"Whenever you're sitting in that chair in your shitty nursing home sucking down jello through a straw, you remember that I put you there you twisted fuck"
So what you're saying is, I need to dip myself in egg and then get fried? Will that finally get my parents to be proud of me?
You have been banned from lemmy.ml for violating rule 2
Fallout 4 kind of in a weird place where it's simultaneously a bad Fallout game and arguably the best Bethesda game.
Thank you
That's how I've described fallout 4 since it first came out. Nice to see someone else had the same thought. It's a great game and I've put a ton of time into it and I play through it every 2 years at most.
But it's really not a great fallout game. The game overall is excellent but it feels the least fallout-y, to me at least.
Man the worst part of lemmy is all the absolutely brain dead China apologists, you people are a cancer spreading bullshit propaganda. Fuck off loser.
Because the neighbours with nothing better to do vote in every single election and are therefore more important to not piss off. Fuck NIMBYs.
Heresy of the highest order.
Already been down voted by a .ml user that got offended by me daring to insult their precious instance. Fuck .ml and their trash mods and admins lmao
Buddy, your account is 10 hours old and all you've contributed is negativity. I'm not surprised you can't get laid, your attitude is bad and you seem like an unpleasant person based off the tone of your comments.
Nobody likes someone that's perpetually angry. Buddy's advice to you basically boiled down to "be yourself and be a genuinely kind person" and you just straight up dismiss it as "faking it". If you have to fake being nice then you should get some help.
Its just "Ukraine" not "The Ukraine"
As much as I would love if you guys did that, practically guaranteed you'd all be fucked in some way because "rules for thee not for me"
Can't be having filthy peasants disturbing the very hard working politicians and local rich people 🙄
God I hate how the world works.
Starcraft. I still love playing through the campaigns and coop, but I don't have the time or energy to keep up with the 1v1 anymore. Used to play it a ton back before Legacy of the Void, but you basically have to treat that game like a second job in order to be competitive and not get destroyed most of the time. I remember going like 3-4 days without playing back then and it'd take me 3-5 hours to get back up to my usual level of play.
It's still a lot of fun to watch pros or high level players play the game though, at least IMO.
Recently read the Mars trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson, and in those books an anti aging "vaccine" is made and shared freely for the citizens of Mars, but on Earth where the rich and powerful still control everything, its used as an incentive to come and work for the most powerful companies, or if you have the money then you can buy it.
I literally hope such a thing is never invented, imagine if the Musk's, Trump's, Bezos', and Putin's of the world lived for hundreds of years instead of finally fucking dying at 90-100 at most.
Terrifying.
"what's the point of introducing new taxes against the rich? They'll just find ways to avoid it so let's just not do anything that might harm their profit margins or else it'll make the poor even poorer"
Then wtf is the solution? Everybody says this whenever higher taxes for corporations and the rich is brought up, that they'll just find new ways to avoid touching their precious profits. Should everyone just collectively do nothing because "they'll find ways to avoid it so why bother"
This defeatist attitude pisses me off, something needs to be done to curb this bullshit. Literally no one needs or deserves hundreds of millions, let alone billions of dollars, and this cancerous "profits must go up every year or your company is a failure" needs to fucking die already. Why do companies making hundreds of millions to billions of dollars in profit need more fucking money? Why can't being rich af and literally not being able to spend your net worth in a single lifetime be enough?
We went from 1 salary at a factory being enough to raise a family, buy a house, buy a car, and go for a yearly vacation being normal to even 2 highly educated people working together and sharing expenses barely being able to afford a fucking house. Now the average person is expected to give a giant portion of their monthly earnings to pay off some parasitic landlords mortgage plus some profit for the "trouble" of being a fucking parasite.
Eat the fucking rich. Enough is enough.
Super Metroid is the greatest game ever made and I will die on that hill.
Ain't that the truth. Social media is one of the worst things for humanity, instead of every "village idiot" being shunned as they deserve, now they can all find each other online and circlejerk about how they know "the real truth" and everyone else is just "blind to reality" as if they knew any better.
The worst thing about stupid people is that they're to stupid to know they're stupid. Anyone with a shred of intelligence knows there's a ton of things they don't understand and leave it to people that actually put in the time and effort to become knowledgeable about their particular field of knowledge.
But no the dumb fucks of the world think a google search and reading a few blog posts, a few facebook posts, and a few youtube videos is equivalent to being able to write and understand a scientific paper.
Ten forward is a good example, the big posters in c/risa got fed up with the mods and made ten forward on Lemmy.world. Now I almost never see risa anymore but ten forward is always on the front page.
Edit: Does this show as a gif for anyone else? I'm using sync and that just shows a static picture unless I click on it.
May I remind you about the cum box? That nasty, crusty old shoe box.
No. I drink every other day at least (not wasted, but a good buzz), I have no friends anymore cause they've all got familes and responsibilities, or they've left the frozen wasteland that is northern Canada. I'm 30 and I live with my mom and brother cause she works part time and couldn't afford to live on her own, and I couldn't afford to live on my own either even though I make $22 an hour, which also means no decent woman would consider coming anywhere near me. My mom is amazing but it fucking sucks being a 30 year old man and having a room right across from her.
My rent went from 1800 in 2017-2022 for a 3 bedroom to 3 fucking grand for a much worse 3 bedroom because we got renovicted from our old place. The new landlord is basically a slum lord, no doorknob on the downstairs bathroom, no heat in my room, no fan and mold growing in the upstairs bathroom, toilets that clog constantly, shit insolation in a city that can get as cold as - 40C during the dead of winter, no door at all on my brothers room, lots of garbage left in the backyard from the previous tenant that was supposed to be removed by the landlord within a week of moving in (now a year and a half later) and a shit local government that just a month ago gave subsidies to landlords as an apology for rent control being implemented.
On top of that it feels like the world is moving increasingly towards fucking people near the bottom of society like me more and more as I get older. I have basically no hope left. I work my ass off at every job I have, rarely it pays off with promotions and small raises, but I've yet to get a truly good increase that raises my standard of life significantly. I try my best, I truly do. One of the few things I can be proud of is that I'm consistently known as a great worker, but it's a roll of the dice whether you're gonna get a boss that values that or just tries to take advantage of your work ethic. Feels like no matter how hard I try, I can't move forward. I get a better job with more money? Oh rent has massively gone up, groceries and gas have gone up, fucking everything has gone up in price. I get more money and every fucking greedy piece of shit has their hands out demanding more money for the essentials of life so I just languish in permenant fucking mediocrity.
I've gained 30 lbs over the last year due to drinking and depression, I built an awesome new pc last year but I barely use it for more than watching videos cause nothing gives me joy anymore. I used to at least be able to get some amount of joy out of playing games, but now nothing makes me happy. I literally wish I could get cancer so that I can die free of guilt. I'm not suicidal, I could never do that to my parents and brother. But every day I wish something would happen that takes me out of my miserable existence. I hate the world and I hate my pathetic fucking life.
Money happened
Don't worry, the extra wealth will trickle down to you citizen. Keep working hard and serving your betters and it'll pay off in the end!
I would prefer at least 10 episode seasons, but I'd take anything at this point. The last 3 books were the best of them all, and that's with the first 6 being absolutely amazing as well.
Greatest series ever, I will die on that hill.
Now listen here you little shit
100% agreed and I'm not biased at all, can just ignore my username <_<
Looks like Android 4.0, back when new versions of mobile OS' were exciting and so were the generational improvements with hardware.
Good times.

Unpopular opinion on lemmy but why not? Kids are gonna get their hands on nicotine no matter how hard it's regulated, same with booze and weed and cigarettes. Banning flavored juices just pisses off a lot of older vapers like me that have been vaping for years. I originally started to quit cigarettes, which I smoked for 6 years, and now 8 on the vape.
If I wanna poison my lungs, what business is that of anyone else's? Don't try and give me that bullshit about "think of the children" either, they're gonna get their hands on nicotine regardless whether that be through vaping or smoking. Vapes are the lesser evil, my lungs don't feel nearly as shitty as they did when I was smoking cigarettes. Anecdotal obviously and there aren't any long term studies on the effects of vaping (as far as I know at least) but I don't lose my breath walking up a small flight of stairs the way I did when I was smoking a lot.
You ban flavours and you're just pushing that to the black market. Sure I could just quit but that's insanely fucking hard and I've tried multiple times, and quite frankly I just don't want to at this point. My life sucks enough, let me have my fruity vapour for fuck sakes and quit trying to ban shit, the alcohol prohibition didn't work, keeping weed illegal didn't stop people from getting it, you're just taking a highly taxable product off the market. I don't wanna smoke nasty ass cigarettes, I like my peach flavoured vape juice.
I know lemmy has basically zero sympathy for nicotine addicts so I'm sure this will be heavily down voted but I just wanted to voice my opinion. Fuck off and let me live my life how I want to live it. Lung cancer or liver failure is basically my retirement plan since I'm otherwise gonna work until I drop dead anyways.
Edit: But I fully support banning disposable vapes. They're a huge waste and banning them would raise the barrier of entry for people that want to vape. I have to change my cotton every few days and change my coils every month or so, and it's fairly easy to mess up. Even premade coils with cotton already in them are a barrier to entry, I know a 30 year old dude that went back to smokes cause he's too lazy to buy new coils and change them when they start tasting bad.
Fuck disposable vapes. Adds a ton of unnecessary waste.
"I don't enjoy killing, but when done righteously, it's just a chore, like any other."
The unfortunate truth ain't it
I got a 4 ten hour day schedule with 3 days off and I MUCH prefer it over 5 eight hour days. Having a whole extra day off easily makes up for working ten hours IMO.
The way I see it is fuck em, if you can't safely drive and follow the rules to mimimize risk for everyone around you then pay for a taxi or take the bus. No public transport? Get your ass on a bike. Everytime I go out, even for a short 10 minute drive to the grocery store, 90% of the time I see someone doing something insanely stupid and dangerous but because nothing bad comes of it they don't learn not to do that.
Driving a vehicle should be considered a huge privilege considering how easy it is to kill not just yourself, but others simply by being a dumbass and not taking it seriously enough. People back up without looking, make turns without looking, tons of dumb shit constantly, shit I had someone merge into my lane without even looking when I was right beside them, I had to slam on my brakes to get out of the way and I was only able to do that because there was no one behind me. I honked at them and they just flipped me off. There should also be a forced age limit for being able to drive cause old people are fucking terrible drivers, or at the very least they should have yearly tests past a certain age to ensure they're still capable of driving.
Drive properly and safely or deal with the massive consequences of not being able to get around quickly. Need a license to get to/do your job? Drive safely or get fucked. Absolutely zero sympathy for shitty drivers.
See this same pointless comment in every thread about twitter. Yes, there are an absolute ton of stupid people in the world. Copy pasting this same shitty comment won't change that, but hey that gives you free up votes even though that literally doesn't matter.
Is it bad if your eye squeaks when you rub it? Asking for a friend.
