  I was playing games on reddit but only the dumb and weird flash games they’d have in the sidebar that users would submit instead of advertisements (back in like 2013). I miss those days

  Now that’s a proper Dark Souls weapon

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The amount of ghost towns in the US and elsewhere will skyrocket in our lifetimes and become a normalized thing⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  There won’t be an explicit decision to up and leave to create a new city, don’t get me wrong. What I expect is that these cities will continue to make the cheapest, politically convenient attempts at solving the issue which will only lead to it being more and more expensive to live there comfortably. People will naturally leave to other neighbouring cities or towns that are in less of a dire situation

  Water is not that expensive even shipped

  Not right now but as it becomes scarce in the area, that cost will go up exponentially. As the cost rises, people who can’t afford it will start leaving - lowering the incentive to ship water out that way (a
  smaller market). That further pushes up the cost forcing more people to leave until it snowballs into a ghost city

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The amount of ghost towns in the US and elsewhere will skyrocket in our lifetimes and become a normalized thing⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem repeatedly seems to come down to a decision of “cost now, money saved later” versus “money saved now, much bigger cost later”.

  The choice always seems to be the latter

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ammu-Nation (San Andreas) ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Is the US even a real place?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Waiting for Capitalism to collapse, so we can get this over with so we can reverse climate change and have nice memes, technology and the good end⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, in this theoretical situation it would. Ignoring the fact that it’s metaphorical, it’s sort of like saying we shouldn’t build windmills or nuclear power plants because the construction produces co2

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Xbox 360 came out 20 years ago⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I miss my stack of PlayStation magazine PS2 demo discs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I dunno⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was taught BEDMAS as well in school (Ontario, Canada)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, it’s sort of an odd part of the threadiverse. Every instance calculates based on what they’re notified of which means the age of the server along with what other instances it’s federated with impacts the count

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  During the initial reddit migration, Lemmy/Kbin had a larger active userbase than it does now. It fell off a bit after a little while, though its slowly creeping back up there with a more committed community.

  But basically there were more users to upvote beans at that point

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GPU prices are coming to earth just as RAM costs shoot into the stratosphere - Ars Technica⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What are you running that needs more than 32Gb? I’m only just barely being bottlenecked by my 24Gb when running games at 4k

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I heard that this offer applies to more than just turkeys⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know about the US but in Canada, security can’t even actually physically stop you in any way so no need to run!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Immich Is Now Stable!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Immich’s use of AI is arguably one of the most suitable cases for the technology and it runs entirely on your own device. I get the hate for AI but this ain’t it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I’ll just be over here…⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Me when when someone else takes over my argument for me 🥰

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In these deeply divided times, it's good to see someone trying to spread unity and tolerance.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I still have trouble believing that happened even though I know it actually did

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cities: Skylines creators Colossal Order are handing the series over to the Surviving The Aftermath devs⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The new one is a lot of fun and it runs better than it did on launch but it feels like its missing a ton of content that the first one had. I assume CO plans to slowly sell all that content back in the form LF DLC :/

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wonder what the Hapsburgs would have thought about pugs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Attempting to channel the style of @PugJesus\@piefed.social with this explanation

  It worked since I only realised it wasn't PugJesus when I got this far into your message lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. tourism faces $5.7B US loss as Canadians continue to stay home⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t understand your comment at all. Are you saying it’s OP that sucks and not the US or are agreeing with OP?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨gabe³ half-life 3 confirmed⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The OP comment is annoying but your comment gives this vibe

  Off topic but the NeXT logo is my favourite logo of all time. If I get a GabeCube I’m 100% putting a NeXT sticker on the front

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Answer May Surprise You⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Idk about OP but apparently just saying your pleases and thank yous :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He's on a mission⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, this isn't that abnormal in Canada either lol. I guess the one thing is that normally winter bikers have fat tires

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bacon⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember when the internet was obsessed with bacon memes in like 2010

  Idk, maybe we're doing alright compared to the US but we have an epidemic of stupid here too

  ″[SoftBank] made a point of saying that it wasn’t any view on NVIDIA... At the end of the day, they are using the money to invest in other AI related companies,” he said

  Important bit of info for people who are just seeing the title :(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I miss him⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I really should watch Twin Peaks

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are Memoirs and Autobiographies partly fictional? How the f do people remember so much detail?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m guessing a lot of it sort of comes back to you as you’re writing your memoir. My grandparents both wrote one and it also helps that they had a lot of photos to jog their memories. They also grew up in Europe during WW2 so a lot of memories stood out to them 😅

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FBI Tries to Unmask Owner of Infamous Archive.is Site⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Purely anecdotal but they're the only news site that I've ever given my email to and I actually enjoy seeing their emails. They send entire (interesting) articles that can be read with no CSS/tracking images enabled and their monetisation is a small text ad that breaks a single couple of paragraphs.

  I've never gotten an email from them that was begging for money or anything like that, just basically an RSS feed of interesting articles
