Uuuh, what is that example supposed to show me exactly? That the chat got moved to a new one?

[–] Carighan@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Well, we can't know what you got banned for, and we only got your (naturally very biased) perspective. So from all we can tell, yes, you were banned for harassment.

It's also important to consider that not only isn't this about quitting entirely, it's also specifically about beef (or other comparable meat). White meats in particular are still not good for the environment, but already like an order of magnitude better.

It's just that beef in particular - also a type of meat that is frankly not even that good if I'm being honest, we're all just used to considering it the best 🤷 - is absolutely horrible for the environment.

That's meee! ✋

I still eat meat, but quite little, and quite rarely. There's the odd salami at home, or every few months some ham for carbonara when I get guests over, or something like that. But it's such a small percentage of what I consume now, I feel like I'm effectively vegetarian, anyways.

And yeah for most things I use alternatives because it turns out they're often easier to handle. The Barista This Isn't Milk is nice because it foams more reliably than actual milk and lasts much longer which is important as a single household.

That's a bit of a shame, but tbh I was not expecting another re-implementation like for System Shock 1, anyways.

Which, if anyone here is still on the fence, is absolutely fantastic. Highly recommended!

I also remember reading this, yeah. I think 7.3, assuming that's when the new season starts?

[–] Carighan@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

Yeah that's how I understand it, too. They'll do turn-based, but probably not in their "biggest" outings as they know action-based tends to (usually) sell better.

I wouldn't exactly call it an MMO? I mean I get it for marketing purposes, sure, but it feels more like Valheim or so to me?

I mean that guy was a dickcheese even before he tried to torpedo this initiative. But wow did he add to his pile of stink.

[–] Carighan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

That's quite posh, nice! 🥰

I mean as they say it's unclear whether it was a joke or not, but with this administration, it's not like "joke", "trolling" and "serious" are any difference in form or function. 😑

 

Link is to the Bluesky account that tracks companies moving to Bluesky (in particular, but it is in this case so I felt it's a fitting link).

They in turn link to the Firefox Bluesky profile.

 

Here's a summary of my take on this situation: 🤬

Reminds me of seeing how long it has been (a bit over 4 years) since a good friend of mine was last online in Steam. Died suddenly before christmas. RIP. :'(

 

From Admiral Cloudberg's air crash series, of course.

On the 19th of May 2016, an Airbus A320 en route from Paris to Cairo disappeared from radar at cruising altitude over the Mediterranean Sea, spiraling to its doom from 37,000 feet until it was dashed against the night-black water. What caused the loss of the EgyptAir flight and its 66 occupants should have been uncovered by a straightforward inquiry, but instead, the case quickly evolved into one of the more unnerving and unnecessary mysteries of 21st century aviation. The problem wasn’t that investigators couldn’t find the cause — it was that not all of them seemingly wanted to.

 

The big highlights:

  • New DoH/DoL quests in Wachumeqimeqi
  • Inconceivably further Hildibrand adventures!
  • New custom deliveries NPC

Chaotic Alliance raids arrives in one week, on the 24th (which is a weird date for new content, I'll be honest).

 

As we can see, there is a small performance hit with NVIDIA App. However, it’s nowhere close to what has been reported. On our PC system, it’s around 4-6%. And that’s mostly in CPU-bound areas. For instance, in Indiana Jones which is a GPU-bound game with Path Tracing, there isn’t any performance hit at all.

Ridiculous that this was even a discussion.

 

But don't let her hear I said that, she's 12 and obviously the youngest kitten possible! (she's not tiny, the bed is just oversized)

 

Not sure how particulary I think about it.

I kinda agree though because, honestly, I genuinely like prodding at RL-issues in my video games, but if the best the writers can do is some MCU-level shit that I would expect in Forspoken or Fortnite, then I really wish they'd not. It just feels like making fun of transgender people with how terrible the scene's dialogue is (there's a video in the article).

Plus, as the update says, they couldn't even be arsed to search through the previous games for whether this was already talked about.

Sigh.

Still, the game is far better than I expected it to be, so this isn't just a rant, but I wish the dialogue in particular had decent writing behind it, it breaks immersion near-constantly even if the general scene and story were done well.
