  • Haven't seen a queue in ages tbh. Weak argument, not to mention that it doesn't make any sense whatsoever

  • Pay 2 win? Where? Genuine question. Played it for 40h after launch, never once felt like paying money?

  • I'm a big John Scalzi fan. Whenever one of his books release, it's basically xmas for me. There have been a few less than stellar books, but overal they are very enjoyable.

  • Mainly using messenger... Can't get any of my friends (admittedly millennials) to move over to discord or even WhatsApp...

    At least it beats using fucking Line, which is the dominant platform where I live. That app is pure cancer.

    Sucks, but social life decides which platform you use.

  • This year has had an amazing start with indie titles so far imo. All cheaper than full blown triple A games.

    1. Palworld : genuinely fresh take on Pokémon
    2. Enshrouded: well built survival game. Still in early access though, might be much better in a year or so.
    3. Last Epoch: best arpg in years?
    4. Helldivers: deserves all the hype and then some.

    And then rimworld is getting a new expansion, what more can you wish for?

  • I had the 7 pro and now have an 8 pro. It's better in every single aspect imo.

  • In what world is paying 40usd for a game and 3x 30usd for 500h of entertainment not a good deal? (not particularly aimed at you, but at dlc haters in general)

    I am glad when they release a dlc. I get more great content. They get some more financial support.

    I am 100% against cheap cash grabs. I am 100% pro multiple well made extentions for a game that allow me to support the studio.

  • It's interesting that cheerleaders still dress like that in Japan imo. Habits are hard to change, especially in the land of the rising sun :)

    National fashion became very conservative in the past 10-15 years. Like almost not even a bare shoulder conservative. Skirts also became much longer in recent times. The ultra mini skirts that Japan was famous for are also on their way out. The whole legging craze that hit the rest of the world never even made it to Japan.

    Just let the cheerleaders wear more clothes?

  • Not refusing, but lately I basically don't pirate games anymore. Steam made it so easy to buy games... + pirating games is always a pita with the required hacks etc. (or at least it was way back when I did it).

    Software I don't pirate, I just use foss stuff wherever I can.

    I also don't pirate books in general. Just get them on Kindle and support the author (and unfortunately also Jeff bezos)

    I pay for Netflix (mainly for kids) and go to the theater for big movies, but aside from that I pirate all screen content.

    I also pirate comics, but that's 90% because it's almost impossible to get them legally where I live. I would pay for DC unlimited if it was available in my neck of the woods.

  • Just a few dlc/expansion packs that were totally worth their money

    All Rimworld expansions.

    Diablo 3 reaper of souls/ D2 lord of destruction

    The witcher blood and wine (?)

    Ballad of gay tony

    Star craft ones

    Red alert yuris revenge

    Horizon zero dawn frozen wilds

    Etc... There are good expansions that are totally worth their money and add to the overall game.

    That being said, I'm not a huge dlc fan and rarely spend money on them if they don't really add to the game. More partial to spend on dlc for smaller studio games rather than large ones.

  • Did not know this was a thing. Thx!

    Unfortunately I couldn't remove it with Shizuku + Canta. Can remove the devicelockcontrolleroverlay. But not the actual devicelock controller. Canta says it removes it, shows up in removed apps, but when I refresh canta, it's just installed regardless. Always stays visible in app list as well.

  • Egypt is lowest on the rape list. There is a huge stigma to report a rape in Egypt. From what I gather, nobody trusts the Egyptian numbers.

    My gut tells me the situation is similar in both Armenistan and Turkmenistan. Punishment for rape might be severe, but very likely the social pressure on the victims is also immense.

  • Big difference between reported rape and actual rape.

    That being said, I hope for Turkmenistan and Armenia these numbers are for actual rape, good on them if it's low.

  • World of warcraft and rimworld.

    Rimworld fortunately can be paused, so causes less family stress.

    Not sure why I keep playing wow, have played it on and off since launch and have enjoyed it, even with all it's flaws. Get sucked in for a few really intensive weeks after every major patch... My wife hates the game with an absolute passion.

  • Luckily they're in NATO (and the eu), so they wouldn't be left alone on a technicality as Ukraine.

  • I gave up on Linux when the repository for my Logitech mouse dongle stopped working 3y ago. Why couldn't I get something as simple as a fucking mouse dongle work instantly blew my mind. Never bothered trying Linux again since.

    Too much Linux evangelism here on Lemmy. Linux is absolutely not as user-friendly as Windows is for non techy ppl.

    • tires from the trucks that brought your food to the shop.
    • the tires from your Amazon delivery truck +...

    There's so many variables, it's ridiculous to try to pin it on individuals.
