Comic Strips@lemmy.world•This April Fool's day, the joke is on everyone
53·4 days agoYou can care about more than one thing. I believe in you.
It depends on the genre.
If it’s a single player narrative-driven game, I want your story to be gripping. I want to be thinking about your game even when I’m not playing. Most recently, Expedition 33 is the gold example of this.
With a multiplayer co-op game, I want to OPTIMIZE. I want to complete goals as though they are all engineering challenges, and I want collaboration on the same axis from the people I’m playing with. Games like Factorio and Satisfactory fill this niche for me, obviously. But I also really like co-op puzzle games like Portal 2 or We Were Here.
With a multiplayer free-for-all game, I crave chaos. I want to interject enough random chance into a game that it’s basically gambling where you can tip the scales by being a skilled player. Party games and kart racers go here.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you feel about the current state of Lemmy?
5·14 days agoWhy are you looking for the approval of people you haven’t even met yet?
All those “where are you from, what do you do for a living, what do you do for fun” type questions are just to establish a common ground. You don’t have to take them so seriously.
And like, you’re already going to share at least one common hobby of being into HAM at the very least. Ask questions, engage in conversation and dont be super introspective about whether your conversation was optimal.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's going on with the Systemd age verification stuff?
131·15 days agoIt’s just an extra field that was added to the UserDB. The methods used to access that information have not chaged AFAIK.
Nah. This is just a Stinger but with the arachnophobia mode turned on.

Technology@lemmy.world•Firefox's beta feature "Smart Window" shared browsing and search history to AI models without promptingEnglish
1213·23 days agoLibrewolf is exactly the same browser with all the security features dialed to 11 and all the AI removed.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Did you drink alcohol when you were younger than me?
3·28 days agoI was 14 when I had my first drink and 16 when I tried weed.
I didn’t get proper drunk until I was 18 though.(Legal age here)
Overall, I was never a super heavy drinker nor did I get into other drugs. In college I would smoke weed with a buddy and watch Doctor Who, and now in my late 30s I maybe have 1 drink every couple of weeks, and quit weed entirely.
It’s hard to say. Every potato dish is great.
If you were to rephrase the question as “If you could only eat one potato dish for the rest of your life, which would you choose?” I think I would find it hard to argue against the humble baked potato
It’s the fact that the easier options are bad choices.
It’s easier to sit around the house than it is to exercise. It’s easier to order pizza than it is to cook something. It’s easier to be ignorant than actually learn and change.
The easy choice should be the good one. Making a bad choice should take effort.
I really like the way that The Dresden Files handles it.
Magic tends to fuck with precision mechanics and electrical systems, which means that modern weapons are much more likely to jam when in the presence of magic auras.
As a result, the main character, who is a wizard tends to use a .44 revolver as his sidearm because anything more precise is going to be unreliable.

Technology@lemmy.world•The creator of systemd wants to bring SecureBoot-enforced hardware attestation to LinuxEnglish
940·1 month agoIf the end user can arbitrarily sign code themselves that is bootable then it kind of defeats the purpose of secure boot.
The whole idea is that it makes it impossible to start if the chain of trust is broken.
I mean, If I were to try that at my age, the feeling the next day would not be dissimilar from a hangover
Death of the author is a thing.
Whatever meaning you derive from a piece of art personally is just as valid as the intended meaning




Big Bird has a predator’s front facing eyes, and a massive form which must require a lot of calories to run.
Do you think his species is an ambush predator like a puma, a persistence predator like a human, or does he go for volume like an orca?
