Maybe if games consistently had some kind of really reliable auto-profiling mechanism that could go run various “stress test” scenes with a variety of settings to find reasonable settings for given hardware

…like most games from early 10’s? A lot of them had built-in benchmark that tested what your PC is capable of and then set things up for you.

Once read that Civ has a tiny little problem…and that is basically that each time they release a game, it’s done. That’s it, there’s nothing more to add in sensible manner. So instead of FIFA approach, they try to slightly shake up the rules of the game with each version, change some mechanics, add some mechanics, maybe even drop some of them.

Here I am, going to get downvoted into oblivion, but you already speak about the topic so I want to ask.

Trans people have the cure for their condition - that being surgery. Why shouldn’t being trans (before actually transitioning!) considered being ill?

Sorry if I come as rude but in today’s hellscape there’s really no way to ask that without sounding like a douche.

I have a problem with idea of gov sayimg what goes. Whatever gov. If it’s your site - whatever goes, goes. You set the rules. Sheesh.

But I admit I am nos so sure when it comes to giants like FB or X. If they were like that from the get go, sure, but sudden switch is iffy as hell.

Yeah, I…yeah, thanks. Way to go for me, eh? xD

18%. 18 fucing %. For the love of god that’s 1/5 of your bloody nation, wtf?

Edit: Nvm, tired and can’t read for shit.

I may be outsider but lower graphic level horror games actually work more for me, because imagination fills the gaps better than engine rendering plastic looking tentacles can

We had great teachers, don’t take ne wrong. Simply nobody trusted them anyway. Like, once I had a teacher that whole class was ready to throw hands for, yet still, except for joking around, nobody trusted her.

Maybe it’s cultural thing, I dunno.

I get that it’s the aim but I am gonna be blunt. I never trusted any tracher. I liked a few, but that’s it…and when I grew up, this was mirrored in most of the male group. Girls tended to be more open to teachers, but that’s it. Is it any different today?

I do agree with you. I simply point out that a lot of folk don’t care.

Wanting to be billionaire is not to be mentally ill. Who doesn’t like power without responsibility? Whatever moral framework you’ve got, most folk wouldn’t subscribe to when given option to be billionaire. Sorry, but that’s reality - power makes people drunk, and it’s only natural for us to want power - power to make our families and friends live better, to make people we despise grovel, to have all we want. It takes discipline and ideals to veer off into helping everyone.

And I agree with the lofe being made harder being the reason, but it doesn’t really apply to original comment I replied to.

Lemmy tends to have skewed perception of such things. Truth is, most people want money. As much as possible in as short time as possible. There’s a multitude of reasons, from wanting a luxurious life, to simply wanting to not have to worry about the money or to retire early, but pretty much everyone wants money. Look at how many folk join the lottery.

Hell, most of Lemmy wants student debt to be forgotten. That’s gaining money, just in reverse order. Same with distributed wealth etc.

World spins around money, no matter how you look at it.

But sure as hell I wouldn’t like to be in a place I hate to earn it. :/

For me it’s good. I’ll keep slightly more attention to what they are doin now. Slightly…but enough to notice other news

Transportation. Thanks…writing half-asleep didn’t work out for me. :/

Okay, honestly? Hear me out because as an European one thing stood out to me.

Why didn’t NYPD catch him? Because he fled using… public communication transportation. It’s too out of this world for them to be able to track him down. No protocols. No nothing. Because nobody, ever, uses public communication in USA.

Edit: And it seems I am the bigger joke for writing public communication when half-asleep. ._.

Poland, 1,1% according to google, your point?

Both Japan and Korea have very specific cultures, and yeah, they screw their work life balance. IIRC Japan is currently working on changing that. But that’s their culture - part of their nation - and flooding it with immigrants erases not only bad parts but also good ones. Hell, look at Germany that struggles with immigrants as far as I know.

Maybe economically yeah, I rather thought culture wise where relying too much on immigrants brings it’s own set of problems.

Also, I know that what you speak of is normal, but damn does it sound bad…“come to us to work for pennies in jobs we would rather not do”…

My first reaction was that immigrants are not the solution.

But then, that’s USA…you all are technically immigrants so whatevs, maybe it is the way.

There is propaganda and then there is fact that nobody teaches their children about budgeting and financial responsibility. Do not treat credit like money you own, do not allow yourself to perceive luxury items as something you need, be mindful of what you can actually afford. Today people seem to have problems with these ideas - lack of education on the topic and aggressive ad campaigns by corporations resulted in that.

But while we cannot change masses, we not only can, but we should point this out to as many people as we can. Often all you need to notice something is for someone else to ask question about why that happens. And yeah, sure, maybe helping one or two people won’t make a dent, and even then these people may already be past saving or simply unable to pick up new habits. But if every mindful person tries to help someone else at least once, shift in society is guaranteed. And such shift will result, maybe, in actual change.

And, on a more flat approach - being aware of your own budgeting limits, spending power and how much money you use is not actually yours tends to radicalize people against the rich.
