  Never thought of that, but personalizing objects is kind of cute, I agree.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The singular they is actually such a natural part of the English language, the people complaining about it almost certainly use it without noticing⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Better than some languages like German, where even inanimate objects have gender. That would be nicer though.

  Just teach them how to use the internet safely and properly. Not to say their age and their address, not to add random people on discord, stuff like that. If you isolate your kids from the internet, then at this point in time, you're kind of isolating them from a decent chunk of human culture, which from personal experience (anecdotal, not very useful, I know), is a terrible idea. I was raised Mormon, I know how restricting access to things goes for kids. They'll end up buying a phone off of a friend with less of an idea of how to use it safely. Maybe check their youtube homepage once in a while, make sure it isn't slop, ask them about what they're doing on there, answer any questions they have. Might wanna filter some stuff before middle school though. Block gore sites, those tend to fuck people up quite a bit.

  That's a little unrealistic, is it not?

  Indeed. DE branched off from Epic Games in the 90s, I believe. Obviously took a more ethical direction.

  Not really, no. It's clear that Epic took way worse a direction than Digital Extremes.

  One of them has a triangle for a head, one has a cube, and one has an oval. This is the pinnacle of diversity

  So, none of the actual, very real problems with them? Great, very helpful.

  I'd probably have to say that it's champagne.

  Only one I'm really looking forward to is the new Lego Batman game. Besides that, I'm just waiting to see what new indie stuff does well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨uhhh⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Gta 7? Elder Scrolls 6? Fallout 5? Invincible season 8? There's a whole world of opportunities of shit to kind of look forward to.

  Seems like well over half of the posts on here are actually meant to be serious. Which isn't what a shitpost is.

  Ah, that was a mistranslation, it was meant to be a train.

  Silly goose, they wouldn't do that to those ducks. They're white!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you cheat in video games?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Oblivion is pretty unbalanced imo. It was a good game, but designed strangely. I personally think that difficulty should just be about the player taking more damage, not enemies taking less as well. Leveling up making the game harder was also interesting. Worth playing though. I think I started on the medium difficulty and stayed there tbh.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you cheat in video games?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, I completely understand that. Sometimes you're not trying to bust your ass for some cool items, just easier to do that (idk if this is how weapons in Elden Ring work, haven't played it yet). I used to allow myself to lower the difficulty significantly in Fallen Order for one specific boss, which, imo, is fucking awful, even on medium (Knight) difficulty. I replayed the game about a week ago on the highest difficulty, and while some sections were harder than others, I only got hit once and beat it on my first try. It felt good to beat everything in the supposed hardest possible way that was intended. Having fun is the only thing that really matters, and I think that a decent amount of people have seemed to forget about that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you cheat in video games?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Almost never. I've stopped even changing difficulties for difficult boss fights. Gives me more satisfaction and makes me feel better at games than I actually am. If I die 24 times and manage to get it on the 25th, then at least I was actually able to do it eventually. Just more fun imo. No shame in it though, just a personal preference.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it normal to feel intense fear when in the presense of any sort of yelling / loud arguments?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It could also mean that they're feeling their emotions so strongly that they don't care who sees or has to deal with it. That could go very badly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just seen the latest American Opinion polls.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Thinking that Lemmy is representative of anything besides Lemmy is at least a little funny to me, I'm sorry. If it was a representation of the country, then Putin might have a good shot running for president.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DEI4All⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Pretty sure it was Kendrick's half time show. Because Kendrick is Kendrick, yeah, no shit there's not going to be a ton of white people. Didn't go through the lineup or anything, but I don't think that white people were the only ones excluded either. But he doesn't care about the lack of Japanese people in the lineup. It's just another guy that's normally complaining about DEI, and in this scenario, it really seems like he'd like it, which is hypocritical.
