- Comment on When I sort by "newest" why is the top post a month old? 1 week ago:
If an instance admin stickies a post it’ll show up at the top of all your feeds (unless you sort by “top”).
However, I checked lemm.ee and it doesn’t have any stickied posts, but it does have a month old post is stuck at the top of “all”. Comments in the thread are complaining about it. I see lemm.ee is using the newest version of Lemmy (v0.19.10) so maybe it’s a new bug?

- Comment on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl - Patch 1.3 has arrived! 2 weeks ago:
I first played it on a 5 year old computer and could barely get 10 fps on the lowest settings. I upgraded knowing that pretty much every other game now is wanting crazy hardware to run. I now have a very expensive top of the line rig that can run the game on max settings with a silky smooth 40 fps…which seems to be the max anyone can get even in benchmarking videos. I haven’t played this patch so not sure if that’s fixed yet.
Other than the ridiculous hardware requirements, the game is very much like all the other STALKER games. You wander around dreary forests and swamps completing quests or searching for items. If you liked the other games you’ll like this one.
Annoying parts for me have been all the walking and the mutants being bullet sponges. Walking takes up a lot of game time and I wish there was an option for fast travel. I know not everyone would want that but I’d personally like the choice. Sometimes I just want to get back to the settlement to trade my loot and don’t want to spend 20 minutes walking through an empty forest. I often run from mutants when I can because it’ll take 100 rounds to kill one and they don’t drop any loot.

- Comment on Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Season 2 - PV 4 weeks ago:
I absolutely loved the Qual scene early on in season 1 as a metaphor for humans eliminating diseases through scientific research.
Scene Spoilers
Frieren tasks her new apprentice Fern with killing the ancient demon Qual. A demon so powerful that even she and the hero party could not defeat him 80 years prior and could only seal him away temporarily. Fern is confused as to how she could take on such a strong opponent but quickly realizes he only knows one basic attack spell. Frieren explains 80 years ago this spell was the deadliest around and no mage could defend against it. Human mages ended up studying the spell endlessly and eventually figured out how it worked. Their research was so widely adopted that it became the basis of modern day offensive magic only a few decades later. Elves and demons might be powerful mages, but individually they could never match the speed at which humans collectively learn, teach, and innovate magic.
- Comment on Is it a red flag if a potential employer rushes you? 4 weeks ago:
Rushing your decisions is a common red flag in scams. I’d say it’s probably enough of a red flag to stop talking with them. You can try to slow play things and if they continue to hound you then it’s almost certainly a scam. They’re probably going to do something like:
Ask you for money to purchase things you’ll need for your job (MLM/pyramid scheme)
Give you a large cheque, ask you to cash it, give a certain amount of the cash to someone, and keep the rest for yourself (cheque fraud).

- Comment on Eurogamer: we can't recommend the PC version of Monster Hunter Wilds 4 weeks ago:
That said, I ultimately think the 4k, 144+ fps gamers running expensive GPUs are offended that they can’t play this one on the highest settings, and are review bombing the hell out of this title.
I can understand. I haven’t played this game but I do have an expensive rig. If turning on dynamic lighting causes the game to stutter, then the dynamic lighting feature is broken. That’s not my machine’s fault. I don’t know exactly what settings aren’t working, but it seems like there are a few nobody can actually use. Negative reviews for a game with broken features is justified.
- Comment on Electronic devices or 'signal jammers' used in car thefts to be banned 5 weeks ago:
More like banning USB sticks because between 2011 and 2021 KIA and Hyundai removed engine immobilizers from their car designs to save a few dollars which allowed their cars to be started by turning the ignition with literally anything.

There are sites you can use that show a list of fetishes to two people and matches up the ones they’re both into. They’re meant for couples but I’ve always wanted to try it with friends.
- Comment on Trump literally referred to himself as "King". Surely conservatives are against a monarchy forming? 1 month ago:
The community really only had single digit users who claimed to be “conservative”, but checking their profiles showed they were also downvote collectors and trolls. Seems like the admins of lemm.ee decided they no longer wanted this community being a safe haven for trolls and have removed the old mod.
