I miss forums so much. A federated backend for forums would be nice. I’m so tired of having these giant communities of angry strangers if I want to talk about anything

Fentanyl is very poorly absorbed by eating. A dog could sniff it and get it that way, but it would require quite a bit of it and it’s pretty unlikely. Given the priors it’s way more likely that the cops have the Fenty Fainties, and are applying it to a dog that had a seizure under stress or something.
Police have a long and storied track record of acting like fentanyl is toxic on sight. I had one try to stop me from administering cpr because he was worried there could be fentanyl on the patient’s clothes and I might get it on me through my gloves.
My issue with it in Starfield (and any game in its genre) is that the game seems to be confused about how it feels about encumbrance. Am I supposed to be looting everything I see? If not, then why is it the major income source, why are so many random objects worth selling and taking? If so, why do merchants have such low credit stores? Am I supposed to be collecting cool stuff to display? If not, then why all the display objects? If so, why have my companions constantly nag me about bringing junk? Why make ship storage so low? Or, am I supposed to be carefully considering what I want to bring as loot? If so, why is there so much of it and why isn’t there some way to quickly see what’s worth taking? Am I supposed to spend an hour after each combat carefully weighing what to take home?
It’s entirely unclear what they want. If they want looting to be less of a game loop, junk items should have no sell value and missions should be more of a reward, and item value/kg should be easy to assess. We should be quickly able to discard valueless items from inventory. Otoh if they want looting to be a bigger part of the game, I should be able to readily carry and sell my loot and doing so shouldn’t make me so rich it breaks the economy.
It’s one of my main complaints, not so much about starfield, but pretty much anything in this genre. It feels like they can’t tell if they want me to loot everything or not, the design is fundamentally at odds with itself.
Tbf I once looked seriously at a house with a giant garage because I wanted to turn it into a huge hobby and rpg space.
And she was looking at me
Don’t you compare windows to that time honoured and helpful software. WinRAR knows when to quit, and is free
Agreed on the sleeping better. There are things it had that Lemmy doesn’t but honestly I never want this site to catch all the way up. Reddit had become bad for me.
Well, that’s their point. With a smaller population we want a smaller canvas.
How frustrating, it’s far easier to dismiss them when they’re a faceless homogeneous mass.
It’s amazing how “righteous fury” people seem to get over folks protesting sporting events because the fucking planet is on fire.
“Oh but couldn’t they be more calm and quiet about it, I want to watch the race!”
Flip, I’ve been cutting down a willow in my front yard annually. Each year it seems to grow back about twice as fast. I enjoy our little game.
It’s astounding how badly apparently a lot of people are failing to read here.
To be very slightly fair I suppose the sentence fragmentation doesn’t help? It should read “a dishonest premise: that billionaires” but, like, the wording wouldn’t change. It’s very clear and not at all ambiguous that the reviewer considers the book’s premise dishonest.
That question isn’t the best way to frame it, because yeah… 2x “enough” is pretty reasonable. That’s still well within the high returns of happiness phase.
Do you need 1000x enough, though? Or 1000x that? I’d love a high end espresso maker, or a nicer car, or to be able to afford to take more time off, but there comes a point where more is just pointless.
I’m a doctor and intentionally set my own hours to four day work weeks whenever I can, because I run my own practice and can do that. Let’s not pretend it’s a badge of honour to grind ourselves into a twitching mess.
Ah yes, as we know mold is flavourless and odourless. There was simply no way to tell, and this story is super plausible.
What better way to show how much you don’t care about Reddit than to spend all your time talking about it?
There were people there prior to the Aztec empire conquering them. The Aztec empire is just a specific government that ruled the area at that specific time.
The Napoleonic empire, for comparison, only lasted 1804-1815 (with a hole in the middle).
It’s strange to note that if Google had just casually worked on the feature, started gradually integrating it with YouTube etc, they might have beat insta to the punch and also really capitalized on Facebook hate. Instead they made one massive marketing blunder after another.
I had been an advocate of getting just an ordinary person to do the first Lemmy ama but apparently we’ve got an absolute legend.
Have you ever had a favourite reference to your joke come up?
I’d go back to around the time my daughter started sleeping through the night. Don’t want to risk a reality where my kids don’t exist. I’d tell my friend the cancer is coming back, when it’s still early enough to do something.
Don’t really know what else I’d do. Don’t really care. Be nice to live through those years again without changing much else to be totally honest
