I’m okay with most of what my kids say they want to be when they grow up, but I really hope my son outgrows his police officer phase. If nothing else, I don’t want his parentage called into question.
I switched to lemm.ee, it’s much more stable since it’s not constantly being attacked by script kiddies. I have a theory a user got banned, and is making it their personal mission to ruin .world’s performance. Please donate to your home instance owner(s) if they have that set up. Even if it’s just a little, it can make everyone’s experience better.
That wouldn’t surprise me, I’ve seen ddos’s against smaller servers over dumber things.
But given that they preemptively ban instances for not supporting NATO and the IMF and don’t preemptively ban nazi, transphobe, and pedophile instances, fuck em.
The fediverse is weaker if .world is allowed to color people’s perception of Lemmy.
Crack = freebasing cocaine = base.
Bay Area rapper Lil B used to be insulted by people who called him “based”, essentially meaning crackhead. He reappropriated it to mean outspokenly being yourself while actively disregarding what anybody else thinks, and started also going by Based God. That’s it.
Which was originally used on the internet as a replacement/slang for “best” but apparently I am the only one who remembers that. Everyone seems to think it started as the cringelord PCM shit, but it absolutely meant “best” for years before that.
It definitely meant crackhead in hip-hop too, but it had a double meaning of “best” as well. Based God = best crackhead god.
When I hear this, I wonder if people are playing the wrong types of games for them. Most AAA games have great graphics and cutscenes, but the core gameplay loop is just tedious and feels like you’re following a GPS from chore to chore. I don’t fault anyone for feeling bored with 10hr interactive movies.
I still love games that challenge me and offer a real risk of failure, for example. If there’s no chance of losing, then beating the game just feels like “finishing” it, like how you would describe a movie or TV show. I’d get tired of that too.
Yeah that‘s my point as well. I play games on the lowest difficulty possible because after a day of work I do not want to be grinding during my free time. And even on easy mode it‘s sometimes just too tiresome.
Like I love Minecraft but I will explicitly play to have fun and build things, my building resources come from what I gather around my area, you’d never catch me using concrete as a primary component in my builds for example.
But MMO level grind? Never. I just want games that respect my time
Exactly. If I’ve got time and energy to play something, it’s going to be for the experience. Not to die repeatedly until the bossfight is ingrained in my memory and I hate myself.
Yeah having the time and energy to log on every night and play games is something I constantly daydream & fantasize about, but when I rarely get an opportunity to do it, it’s extremely hard to enjoy it because I know I’m not gonna get another chance again for who knows how long. My enjoyment is directly related to looking forward to the next time I’d be able to continue what I was doing in game.
This is why I bought a steam deck and have accepted joy in Stardew Valley.
You’re fired, even though we never hired you. Fucking lazy piece of shit puddle of urine. Who even does things like… checks notes performing normal bodily functions. Don’t you know you’re supposed to hold in your shit urine until you finish your shift? People these days, so lazy and entitiled, that’s why we have a labor shortage. Smh my head. 🤦♂️
