Nobody likes voting for the lesser of two evils, but we all have to if we want to stop an even further decline into hell. Trump as president will have immediate and direct consequences for many people, and it will be the fault of people like you that it happened. At this point, not voting for Biden is the same thing as voting for Trump. You can continue virtue signaling after we get through the immediate crisis in front of us.

Tbf, there are way more non-vegans than there are vegans. I feel like this should be expected to an extent.

I think the most shocking this about this image is that it doesn’t have an iFunny watermark on the bottom.

It’s pinned to the taskbar.
- Comment on After 10,000+ hours grinding, MapleStory's first level 300 player slams the brakes at 299.99 to rant about the MMO and then quit, all on a dev-promoted stream 2 months ago:
“Over here [in Heroic] it’s free-to-play friendly, by a considerable margin,” niru begins, talking over a graphic showing the player distribution between the world types, with Heroic leading in global MapleStory by some margin. “Pay-to-win is accepted here [in Interactive World], but the free-to-play experience is awful and that’s what needs to be improved right now.”
I get addiction is real and it’s not easy to quit for some people. What I don’t get is that the game apparently has a different world type that is just better and he’s actively choosing not to play it instead. That’s like picking to play P2W poker where you can buy better hands and then complaining that it’s not fun when you could just go play real poker at the next table instead. At some point I just lost sympathy for you.

Maybe they didn’t have the source. Again, we’re on the shitpost community. I think it’s unreasonable to expect people to research the sources for every meme that they shitpost. Especially when they’re a power-user like OP and post 30-some times a day.
- Comment on Progress! 2 months ago:
Sure, the source would have been nice. They’re not a jackass for not providing it though. Do you send the source every time you show a friend a meme?
- Comment on Progress! 2 months ago:
I wouldn’t call OP a jackass for not providing the source for a shitpost.

The idea of a minimum wage without a maximum wage is odd to me to begin with.
What the ultrarich just heard: “So you’re okay with us getting rid of minimum wage, then!”

The new bunny and bee suite are super cute. The bunny suit makes hopping sounds when you jump.

That’s neat, never heard of this or even Minetest. Might have to check it out at some point.

Think the original Lost but nearly all defensive items are removed from the item pool. On one hand that means no useless health ups clogging the item pools. On the other hand, that means no holy mantle or dead cat.
Overall I’d say that makes him a more consistent and more fun character, but I’m not sure if I’d call him easier. Losing the ability to find things like dead cat hurts.
IIRC (been almost a year since I’ve played Isaac), he has a higher damage stat as well, which is great.

Got up to the god dungeons in HCCO (never did 12B), dog tripped over my headset during a fight, I looked up and I was dead. That one hurt lol.
It’s still on my plans to try again at some point, maybe when the upcoming third DLC comes out.
- Comment on What are the best indie games you've ever played? 3 months ago:
Terraria is the easy pick for me. I believe the only game that comes even close to the amount of hours I have in it would be Minecraft.
Melvor Idle is an amazing game if you like the “idle” in idle games. I’ve 100%'d it and all the DLCs and still love playing it.
Cassette Beasts… I’m genuinely surprised I haven’t seen this game mentioned here. An absolutely amazing creature collector with a very unique twist on things, a great story, beautiful pixel art, and hands down the best game soundtrack I’ve ever heard.
- Comment on What are the best indie games you've ever played? 3 months ago:
The Lost at least gets significantly easier once you unlock the holy mantle for him. The Tainted Lost though…

This has nothing to do with selling out. Motion Twin, the original studio behind the game, are the ones terminating all the updates. Evil Empire, the studio that took over development of it for the last 5 years, had to abruptly cancel their future plans.

It’s very disappointing that Telltale went down. The Wolf Among Us by Telltale is also great, and, over a decade later, it’s finally getting a sequel some time this year.

Oh, you’re asking what it is on the original falcon. I’m no star wars junkie but as far as I’m aware it’s the cockpit.
- Comment on How to make two groups of fanboys twitch simultaneously. 5 months ago:
To actually answer your question, the base of the ship is from the Enterprise from Star Trek. Both it and the Millennium Falcon have a circular body, though the Falcon’s is notably less smooth. Everything else was taken from the Falcon and tossed on it to piss people off.
- Comment on The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion 6 months ago:
Good old modded Terraria once again. Thorium + Overhaul + Eternity mode with a friend is pretty fun.
My other friends started playing RLCraft recently, which has got my in the mood to play a hardcore Minecraft modpack. Unfortunately, I can’t find any that aren’t complete BS (my issue with RLCraft) or feel incredibly unfinished (like RotN, where over half the guide book entities are placeholder text and the wiki link on the main page leads to a dead wiki).

Fair, but these are still all perfectly valid reasons to do so on Lemmy as well, so I still think it makes more sense to do so here than on Reddit.
- Comment on Relative size comparison of social media platforms (December 2023) 6 months ago:
Why? I found like that would be more common on Lemmy than anything. There is an actual point in using different instances here, I don’t see any point whatsoever on Reddit.
- Comment on Pluralistic: "If buying isn't owning, piracy isn't stealing" 6 months ago:
“renting” it is still taking money from the author even if the damage is physically limited to one item.
I do see where you’re coming from, but not necessarily. If my friend has zero interest in ever buying said book (or can’t afford to) and would never become a paying customer, there is no downside to sharing a copy. In fact, if they like the book enough, they make even become incentivized to buy themselves a copy or look into the author’s other work legitimately when they otherwise wouldn’t have.
This is how/why I pirate most games. I don’t have the type of pocket money to spend on games I don’t know I’ll love, so I pirate them first. If they’re good enough, I’ll buy the actual game on steam later. Spider-Man, Baldur’s Gate 3, Cassette Beasts, etc. are all games I plan to buy when I can afford to. And I can promise I never would have bought Slime Rancher 2 if I hadn’t pirated the first one at some point and enjoyed it.
