- Comment on Hunter: The Reckoning - Deathwish | Reveal Trailer 1 week ago:
Fucking knew they were going to turn it into an FPS. What’s wrong with the twin stick shooter formula that all the others were?
- Comment on Was just watching THE Newsroom Clip. Does JD still hold water? Or have we gone way past that? But in your opinion what if anything makes America great??? 1 week ago:
OP’s terrible title is referring to this (fucking amazing) scene, and the character Jeff Daniels, not JD Vance.
- Comment on 'Icky and heartbreaking': The $2 per hour worker behind the OnlyFans boom 2 weeks ago:
A Philippines-based woman has described how “heartbreaking” it is to get less than $2 per hour pretending to be much better paid OnlyFans models in online chats.
Article is worth reading, IMO.
- Comment on Video game PEGI age-ratings are changing in Europe from June. Four new categories added to tackle elements of addictive design, unmonitored online communication and loot boxes 3 weeks ago:
You’re right. I shouldn’t be reading articles that early.
- Comment on Official Launch Trailer | Crimson Desert 3 weeks ago:
Why the fuck do developers think we want to fly through rings??
- Comment on Video game PEGI age-ratings are changing in Europe from June. Four new categories added to tackle elements of addictive design, unmonitored online communication and loot boxes 3 weeks ago:
Unfiltered communication gets an 18 rating, but gambling gets a 12 😮💨
- Comment on Pragmata is releasing a whole week earlier than planned because who cares, it's got April all to itself 4 weeks ago:
*looks at the six other games in my game playlist to come out in April that I’m honestly more interested in*
Ok
- Comment on Kitchen smells really weird when I turn on my oven. Should I be worried? 4 weeks ago:
Read the post before commenting advice. The 3rd sentence says it’s electric.
- Comment on We Cooked Klingon Gagh (Yes…REALLY) | Ten Forward Test Kitchen 5 weeks ago:
You can’t cook gagh. That kills it. The whole point is to feel them squirming on the way down.
- Comment on [NSQ] What are you actually looking forward to this year? 1 month ago:
I’m surprised no one is talking about the US midterm elections. I have to hope that we can actually turn this fascism around. God, please let us turn this fascism around…
- Comment on Crimson Moon - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 1 month ago:
God, I love being able to block people on Lemmy. Please block me too. Let’s never see each other again.
- Comment on Crimson Moon - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 1 month ago:
LOL, yeah person that got a college degree in making video games doesn’t understand basic terms used to describe how gameplay feels. Sure, bud.
I’m not invalidating how you feel about Lords of the Fallen or FromSoft games. I’m literally just stating (for some reason, repeatedly) that people feel differently about different things. I couldn’t give a flying fuck what games you enjoy, nor should you give a flying fuck about what games I enjoy. Just because we enjoy games at the other person does not doesn’t mean that the other person enjoys shit games.
- Comment on Crimson Moon - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 1 month ago:
Saying opinions are facts doesn’t make them so, just because they’re your opinions. I guess you had a skill issue with the original Lords of the Fallen, huh?
- Comment on Crimson Moon - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 1 month ago:
I disagree. I played it all the way through, yet I never managed to play any of the Fromsoft games more than maybe 10 minutes because I feel that they are too clunky.
- Comment on Crimson Moon - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 1 month ago:
I’ll take the original Lords of the Fallen over the new one or any of the Dark Souls games any day. People have different tastes.
- Comment on Horizon Hunters Gathering - Announcement Trailer | PS5 Games 1 month ago:
I hate everything about this. I hope it does well enough that it doesn’t shut down their studio.
- Comment on Tesla profit tanked 46% in 2025 | TechCrunch 2 months ago:
Investors largely expected the decline in sales in Tesla’s fourth quarter and full-year results for 2025, and the company beat Wall Street’s estimates for earnings and revenue, sending shares up in after-market trading Wednesday.
Remember, this is talking about profits, not revenue. They’re still making profit. They did shit profits, but it was more than people expected them to make, so shares went up. Fuck Tesla.
- Comment on Why are people still romanticizing No Man’s Sky’s “redemption” arc? 2 months ago:
lol, look at OP’s only other post. Looks like another account for my block list.
- Comment on Is there desire for Capt. Una spin-off? 2 months ago:
Personally, I wasn’t particularly enthused with the character. I didn’t gravitate towards her at all. If they did something like that, I’d still check it out because SNW was so good, but I’d rather see something with Ortegas (not as captain, obviously).
- Comment on Behind the Scenes - Prince of Persia (1989) [Making of] 2 months ago:
For anyone interested in this, I would also recommend reading the original dev diaries: www.jordanmechner.com/en/books/journals/
I really enjoyed the read, personally.
- Comment on Is there a point we can track down when we stopped caring about doctors, nurses, teacher, etc? And thought it was a great idea to pay atheletes millions and screw everyone else? 3 months ago:
I don’t think doctors fit in that group. They are paid well, and respected, far more than nurses on both accounts.
- Comment on Hulu officially launching on Disney Plus across the globe — here's when it's coming 5 months ago:
Thanks for the reminder to cancel Hulu.
- Comment on 6 months ago:
That’s intentional.
Smart glasses also raise many privacy concerns, as their cameras and microphones may be recording at any given time, which can be unnerving to people. When Google launched their Google Glass smart glasses, this led to the coining of the term ‘glasshole‘ for people who refuse to follow perceived proper smart glasses etiquette.
- Comment on Lords of the Fallen 2 Will Be Revealed During Gamescom 7 months ago:
Funny enough, the original is the one I like. Hated the reboot.
- Comment on Lords of the Fallen 2 Will Be Revealed During Gamescom 7 months ago:
I’m so tired of game naming trends. Let’s not make any mention of the sequel being a sequel and name the third game number two!
- Comment on OpenAI just launched its new ChatGPT Agent that can make as many as 1 complicated cupcake order per hour, but even Sam Altman says you probably shouldn't trust it for 'high-stakes uses' 8 months ago:
For anyone wondering what the fuck that title meant:
OpenAI research lead Lisa Fulford told Wired that she used Agent to order “a lot of cupcakes,” which took the tool about an hour, because she was very specific about the cupcakes.
“It was easier than me doing it myself,” Fulford said, “because I didn’t want to do it.”
- Comment on John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025 8 months ago:
It was okay. Nothing exciting, but one aspect of it that I did like is that you can choose to watch your choices happen in real time after you finish a level, which - although not the smoothest - does actually make it feel like John Wick just rolled through.
- Comment on Japan using generative AI less than other countries 8 months ago:
Japanese people tend to make a big deal out of the “human touch,” especially when it comes to service
Aren’t they the ones that first came up with robot servers in restaurants? Or maybe that was South Korea?
- Comment on 32, f. Are there any dating sites that are actually free and don't suddenly force me to pay to actually use the site? 8 months ago:
Well, shit. I pulled out my laptop to grab the scripts and it looks like the extension was updated and it wiped them out. I didn’t have them backed up anywhere else, so I guess their gone unless I find myself back on the apps again (please, god, no…).
- Comment on 32, f. Are there any dating sites that are actually free and don't suddenly force me to pay to actually use the site? 8 months ago:
OkCupid was amazing 15 years ago, but it’s pretty shit now. For what OP is looking for, it’s probably still the best option, but it’s a very low bar.
OP, if you want to check out OkCupid, message me. I can set you up with a couple of browser scripts I wrote to improve the website experience. One will show you your matches’ photos. You won’t be able to view their profiles, but people that like you will generally show up in the profiles you’re shown pretty quickly, so it’s easy to find them. The other will need to be slightly tailored to you if you want to use it, but it will automatically skip any profiles that are showing to you that don’t meet your minimum requirements, and even alert you if one of them liked you instead of just skipping it, just in case you’d like to give it a closer look before you make a final decision.
