I love Supergiant games, but Pyre really didn’t click for me either. The presentation was great, but after Bastion and Transistor, the gameplay just fell flat. I’m glad to see people enjoyed it though.

I love Hades and Hades II, however I’m hoping the studio will try something new for their next game.

Wonder if Rockstar are about to fire a bunch of people with a different excuse this time and announce another delay.

Can’t be expecting the peasants to share in the success of their hard work! Better to fire them and rehire them for cheaper when they are desperate.

Here’s hoping we can get something like Skies of Arcadia. It’s probably nostalgia but it was such an amazing game back when I was younger.

I’ve never heard someone call it the “blossom end”, I’ve always known it to be called the Bananus (banana anus). I think monkeys typically open it on the same end rather than from the stem.

The kiwi skin on is actually very fibrous, I know someone that was constipated during pregnancy and the only thing that would clear them out was kiwis with skin on!

I recall someone at some point calling it cuckoding, that gave me a chuckle.

Worked in IT support and moved to software development. I still use the “Have you tried turning it off and on again” line whenever a colleague is having issues with their machine. There are still people surprised that this works. Sadly there is now a generation that has no idea what I’m referencing when sharing the IT crowd gif.

“Marginally profitable.” Profit is profit, and their end goal of giving people a library to drive sales has worked.

Competition is good, for end consumers, but not a chance I’m going to be using EGS. They had no interest in making things better for consumers, especially with trying to create exclusivity in PC gaming.

If you have a pressure cooker (like an instant pot) then doing hard boiled eggs in that makes them incredibly easy to peel

I think there is some value in accepting there are things out of our control and there is no benefit in dwelling on those things. Of course we can’t apply it to everything.

Been on it for about 7 months now. I started taking it as I noticed thinning at the front, the crown was already thinning, but I can’t see it so I don’t care. I feel happier in my hair, I have less than I did when I was in my 20’s but it has stopped the loss and allowed for some recovery.

I really had to think hard about going on it. My family has a history of depression, and I’ve been able to escape it. My biggest worry is that it would trigger some kind of depression. I’ve not had any issues in this area thankfully!

My willy still functions perfectly too, so I’m not aware of any side effects, and I’ve seen hair retention and regrowth. The first couple of months I did experience some shedding, but it wasn’t bad. It’s satisfying seeing some little sprouts of hair reappear.

Windows can add some complications as a dev, especially in the corporate environment when really strict group policies are implemented that stop Devs from installing or configuring systems as they need.

One company I worked at remained on Windows LTSC for security reasons, and a lot of Devs that were working with Java hit a snag if for whatever reason an IDE they were using really wanted a system environment variable configured a certain way and it would straight up ignore user environment variables. They would be restricted from basically being able to configure anything without getting IT to remote on and make the changes for them.

I was forced to use a Mac for the first time years ago for work, I still hate working on a Mac but I can’t deny how much more flexible it can be compared to working in a Windows environment that is locked down.

Yeah fair enough, you’re right, I should have been specific in saying Windows and MacOS.

I believe the point still remains that intolerances exist on Lemmy.

I agree Windows sucks, just pointing out an intolerance! I think no matter what social we go on it will eventually become an echo chamber and people will be intolerant as their hatred grows.

Another example is AI. Lemmy is intolerant of AI outside of AI specific communities, but go to LinkedIn and you have people circlejerking over how great their vibe coding is.

Back when Reddit made it’s API change and I moved to Lemmy, it felt like people were still getting a feeling of things, there would be more discussion on subjects. As time is going on I’m seeing discussion around subject diminish. I guess it could have been because there was less posts? Or could it be as time has gone on people have become less tolerant of things Lemmy generally doesn’t like?

It’s definitely intolerant of any OS that is non-linux

Enjoying it very much. For a game that isn’t even complete it is so solid on the gameplay. Feels different enough from the first game, but also the same.

Not sure if it will become my favourite deck builder over Monster Train 2, but it’s still a fantastic early access game.

Have a “sorting hat” that will assign people to an instance based on their interests could be good.

Cool, thanks for the info!

For the first poster, why is nurse Chapel on it?

I don’t know if it’s still good, but when I had my headset I loved Synth Riders. At times I felt like I was really dancing. Some of the “experiences” were great too, there was a Muse one that was really well done!
