  No. I’m much more technology-literate than the average person, and while I appreciate the advantages of federation it annoys even me a lot of times.

  Also, Lemmy is much further left than the average population and even reddit. So either it won’t grow to mainstream size because of that, or it will and the demographic will shift more to the center which will be off-putting to the original users.

  Back to in-class essays!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just one…more..update⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I wouldn’t say it’s overrated because I don’t really see people saying it’s the best game of all time or anything like that. But it enjoys a good amount of popularity from a very large number of people because it’s fun, rewarding, replayable, and fairly easy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A simpler time⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, back in those days I thought we were truly in the post-racism era. Then I grew up and saw how the world really was, and social media happened and allowed all the awful people in the world to find each other.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why aren't you creating more workers??⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  We need some more people. Much as I agree as the future is bleak, if we all simply stopped procreating then there wouldn’t really be any point to anything and truly no reason to want to make the world better. Can’t get to Star Trek future without a future.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There's always a silver lining⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Possession is 9/10ths of the law!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Did cavepeople have domestic pets, like wolves or cats?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Dogs didn’t selectively breed us for specific physical and behavioral traits.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Game prices should have increased with every new generation, former PlayStation US boss says⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Gaming is one of the cheapest hobbies and forms of entertainment there is. The price I have paid per hour for playing my favorite games is miniscule compared to something like seeing a movie.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  But his friends most definitely will if they find out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What if a billionaire wants to help you?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In the USA banks most definitely scrutinize the source of money and why it’s being transferred.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shit's getting real⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The price is on the can though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day 387 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I love Wind Waker so much. The Triforce quest toward the end gets some heat, but I think it’s great. Sailing around the open ocean and exploring the islands is the best part of the game. Wish they would have kept some of the cut content and had another dungeon or two, but still overall one of my favorite Zelda games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Planet of the apes: Beginning⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Monkeys are pretty smart, obviously not people smart but they’re a whole tier above cats and dogs. I doubt a water gun would work at a deterrent once they realize it’s only water.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If everyone spontaneously became the same race the world would realize that the rich are the real problem⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Fun fact, there is more genetic variation within Africa than there is in the rest of the world combined. This is because only a small lineage of humans ended up migrating out of Africa.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I ain't got no time to maintain some stupid little plastic bread clip. I got a landlord to feed.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They’ll break eventually but it’s nice to get a couple more uses out of them for things like bags of frozen veggies and stuff.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I ain't got no time to maintain some stupid little plastic bread clip. I got a landlord to feed.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not only do I use these, I save and reuse them for other things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And nothing of value was lost⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This depends on the state and depends wildly on the circumstances. Driving in a reckless manner, e.g. while intoxicated, and killing someone is probably a felony everywhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Old Man Guide to Grooming⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My barber trims up my eyebrows every time I get a haircut.

  I’m not even a raisin hater but raisins in carrot cake does not sound good at all. Give me walnuts or pecans.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Predators⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The paleolithic era must have been a fucking trip to live in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Times change, but I stay the same.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Good to know, thanks for the heads up! I’m still pretty early in the game so maybe I’ll start putting a little more focus into my combat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Times change, but I stay the same.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m playing on Switch so no mods for me yet, although I very well may buy it on Steam as well! In fact I think it’s on sale right now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Times change, but I stay the same.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Nord, even though I’m focusing a lot on my magic skills. Just seems right for the story for my first playthrough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Times change, but I stay the same.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I just started playing Skyrim for the first time last month, I’m having a blast.
