- Comment on The popularity of Minecraft has probably led some children to believe you can swim up waterfalls 1 month ago:
Probably only in the same way cartoons made kids belief that gravity only takes affect when one looks to the audience. Most often, most kids won’t transfer any of that to reality but we all had that one kid at our school who was reaaaaaally close to do the Naruto run.

- Comment on They say “anyone can become president”, but this will be the first presidential election since 1970s, where there is no Bush, Clinton, or Biden on the ballot. 1 month ago:
That’s just depressing.
- Comment on Hasbro CEO Says AI Will Become Core Part of Dungeons & Dragons 2 months ago:
Naive hopeful me: maybe they will use it in the way it’s described. For gathering ideas, developing concepts. Hopefully a character generation tool. Where it leads you through step by step and keeps track of all things. Probably not gonna happen. Probably they use it to write the damn rule books with them including art.
- Comment on CrowdStrike deja vu for IT admins with 'performance issue' 2 months ago:
A bit harsh to call out the poor admins like that, don’t you think?
- Comment on Valve attempts to deal with jokes, memes and ASCII art reviews on Steam 3 months ago:
I get why, there are a lot of trash reviews on the side / in the store. I am going to miss it though.
- Comment on Current best lemmy clients 3 months ago:
All the time on science memes, try going back to ‘best of all time’. It can also make modding on mobile quite a pain, when you as a mod can’t see the post. Though the failed to load media is, what I have heard not due to the app itself but that the link in the post is broken and the app just has not indexed the post yet. Which is why other apps may show the post correctly because they indexed it before the link broke. However I can not remember where I read that. So it might be completely false.
- Comment on Snowflake is such a weird insult as it seems to imply it's best to just be like everyone else 3 months ago:
In a sense - yes it is good to ‘be like everyone else’. Now before you all downvote, ask yourself what do we consider normal? When becomes a behaviour problematic?
we assume behaviour falls on a bell curve. At the extreme ends is behaviour that’s is considered to be ‘abnormal’ as in not normal and in the in-between is what we consider normal and what most people do. Abnormal does not mean bad or detrimental to one’s health however; it often sparks a negative reaction from others.
In line with this is the ‘insult’ to be extra unique, different or special would be not normal because most people are not at the end of the bell curve.
If we apply this to mental health: you may feel depressed at times. Doesn’t mean anything but the more days you feel that way, the further to the end of the bell curve do you move. At some point you are an outlier and we can safely say: you have a major depression. Now this is simplified but it gets the point across.
In other areas it is better to not be extremely unique, too. Think of school, in my experience being different is not a problem but being extremely different to your peers will have negative impact on you. They might pick on you or outright ignore you. This is not justifying this it is sadly how it often goes.
- Comment on Paradox delay Prison Architect 2 and cancel preorders: "improving the performance has proven to be a task that will take time" 3 months ago:
Well at the same time, they do show that they might have learned something from the cities skyline release. I’d rather wait longer for prison architect than have the performance issues cities skyline has / had?
- Comment on Paradox CEO admits company made "wrong calls in several projects" in wake of Life By You's cancellation 3 months ago:
They have all they need. We can only speculate why the fuck they stopped it.
- Comment on House Passes Bill That Defines Criticism of Israel as “Antisemitism” 6 months ago:
They had a three parter, with the meteorshower. one of them is the one with the juwbelie where they try to get Moses macaroni pictures and what not. One of the elders there is from the sect of anti-Semites or so.
