thedirtyknapkin , to risa in Am out of the loop on the community drama. Is there a summary?

ahhh, this post stopped making sense after he deleted the comment, can you give some more details about what it said?

thedirtyknapkin , to news in The data is in: RTO policies don't improve employee performance or company value, but controlling bosses don't care

what should we say instead?

thedirtyknapkin , to world in ‘I would not have pulled Lush out of Russia if it weren’t for public pressure’

i mean, this is one way to win a war. the other is with bombs and death. Russia chose to enter this war, it shouldn’t be surprised when it affects its citizens.

no one should get to keep their war over seas and out of their own borders.

imagine a future where we could stop wars by just taking people’s jobs…

thedirtyknapkin , to news in Americans are lonely and it’s killing them. How the US can combat this new epidemic.

that’s what discord is nice for. I’ve got a group that talks in voice almost every day. we just hang out after work, play a game or two, talk about life. the classic stuff.

thedirtyknapkin , to nostupidquestions in What's up with all this data breaches and leaks?

i mean, are there ever consequences to the companies? how often does it actually affect their bottom line?

it keeps happening because companies doing very little to stop it because they have little incentive to.

thedirtyknapkin , to lemmyshitpost in The American mind cannot comprehend this

i mean… I’m basically the only American i know that has actually chosen to walk as a real way to get somewhere in the last 5 years.

the idea that most Americans literally never walk anywhere isn’t inaccurate. especially for anyone living outside of a city.

thedirtyknapkin , to technology in Microsoft ending support for Windows 10 could send 240 million PCs to landfills: Report - CNA

it’s about the hardware requirements. most Windows 10 machines CAN’T be upgraded.

thedirtyknapkin , to startrek in If the kids didn't mutiny, would Picard have been killed when the turbolift fell?

oh man, when the entire fleat gets stopped in place and it’s a massive problem because everyone went flying and now zero g is making their blood pool badly even with minor injuries… they turned what most shows would’ve shown as a minor inconvenience and showed how awful it would really be.

thedirtyknapkin , to asklemmy in Dear Lemmy, **why** Star Trek??

honestly, y’all should both give strange new worlds a shot. to me they’re the closest we’ve ever gotten to TOS. even moreso than TNG. and i agree that the other new treks were ass.

thedirtyknapkin , to technology in Spotify doesn't make profit from music streaming, despite having over 400M monthly active users, because it pays two-thirds of all its revenue to the rights holders.

except tht artists, which is more the fault of the rights holders in this case really…

thedirtyknapkin , to pcgaming in we are witnessing a true renaissance of video game music. More than ever VGM is being recognized as an art in its own right. Symphonic game concerts are being sold out within days.

it’s not so much about caring about Harry Potter, it’s more that exploring didn’t feel rewarding or worthwhile. it only seemed like it would be interesting if you DID care about the lore enough just to want to see it.

thedirtyknapkin , to news in Israel social security data reveals true picture of Oct 7 deaths, less than originally claimed

I’m not saying they’re the same. one is clearly worse. I’m saying it’s probably a bad idea to fund and legitimize an extremist religious government like them. in fact, your point about the US being to blame for the taliban is EXACTLY the point. this is the lesson we need to learn from that. we funded and armed them against what we saw as a greater threat and so we looked past the ideologies of those we supported. if we support and legitimize hamas we’ll be doing the exact same thing again.

I’m definitely not saying we should support Israel, I’m not saying we shouldn’t help Palestine, I’m just saying we need to be careful.

eh, i found the game to be hollow and boring past the first handful of hours… but I didn’t get much out of the “explore the castle” experience. like, there wasn’t really anything to find. just the same boxes and puzzles but in different spots. like, imagine if instead of a little card to read about the whomping willow, instead you just get pulled into a fight if you wander too close.

the flying, one of the most important aspects of a harry potter open world game imo, wasn’t just bad, it had no thought or effort put into it at all. i made exactly as complex of a flight mechanic in 7th grade using a teaching program called Alice in like 2009.

like, every tool and mechanic in the game felt lazy or unfinished. bad puzzles lifted out of other games, all of the school rules get handwaved away because a rule and punishment system would’ve been actual gameplay and they didn’t want to spend time on that when they had models to build and marketing to do.

that’s really my issue. it feels like a game that spent 40% on building an environment, 50% on marketing, and the 10% that was left went into slapping a game into it. it’s really frustrating too, because no one is willing to talk about the game beyond the Rowling controversy. it felt like a blatant low effort cash grab to me, but everyone else either “didn’t care cause fuck rowling” or “idk, i liked it” is the most they’ve given it thought.

thedirtyknapkin , to news in Israel social security data reveals true picture of Oct 7 deaths, less than originally claimed

sure, but if you look at literally ANYTHING ELSE about them you’ll see what we mean.

they’re a far right religious extremist organization that wants for Palestine what the Taliban is doing in Afghanistan. they don’t want to stop oppression, they just think it’s affecting the wrong people right now. that region well not get less shitty with them in power.

thedirtyknapkin , to pcgaming in Knights of the Old Republic 'still has a lot of demand,' Disney exec says

i think they’ll still manage it with a remaster. they’ll tack on a battlepass somehow…
