I put 5 dollars into the clash of clans card game, realized they could very easily have had me for more, turned off the game, uninstalled, and never looked back (I don’t think I even used the currency I had purchased).
It was a good moment of realization, glad I got out for 5 dollars.
They could’ve made so much more with all the permissions I’d given them XD
Nah, there were things like floating sign posts, and enemies in places they shouldn’t have been.
It was absolutely not the game that was released 22 years ago. Also they said they didn’t re-tune the enemies, but everything was easier, so maybe it wasn’t re-tuned, but it was differently tuned
Dark legacy comics has been my only source for wow.
I played when they “re released” classic, just before they bent over backwards to please China (that was a big reason I stopped, the other was classic wasn’t classic, there was so much jank in it that had clearly not been qc’d), now I read about the adventures of the dlcomics cast and that’s more than enough for me.
Yup, no scientist ever has dedicated their lives to fighting climate change.
They’re all fucking around doing things they weren’t told to do by their obviously even keeled superiors.
Mosquitos feed on apex predators and feed the nearly bottom of the food chain. Imo they’re up there with salmon in terms of nutrient transfer, absolutely would cause chaos at all levels if they were eliminated.
I used to worry that it was a losing strategy, because if I don’t block them then they will have unfettered access to the new people of the Internet. But then I started to think it doesn’t matter, I’d rather have my own mental health.
Unfortunately lemmy is a lot less active when you ban afford Assholes, muck rakers, and people just looking for fights.
And white finally has a mate in 3 moves!
No longer available and no longer integrated are not equivocal.
I am fine using my high beams in neighborhoods because those damn kids come out of nowhere, and the high beams light up more of the road. Black out curtains if it bothers you imo.
Yeah but it’s so easy to rip on YouTube, don’t you see how edgy it is?
So dystopian. The number of novels I’ve read where Advertisements existing on a screen has become the main source of revenue, what a bizarre science fiction fantasy land that would be…
So you want someone to broadcast, and you’re willing to pay for it, but not willing to support the content creators in any way?
YouTube premium, only time I hear ads are when my coworkers crank their shit too loud in the office, or when I have a brand new phone and have forgotten to log in.
Worth every red nickel.
Angry video game nerd?
I might’ve conflated him and total biscuit in my head.
For some reason “and Bill Clint claims to have fixed these streets” feels like the source of your line. I’m not doubting it’s originality, if you were writing 30 years ago you could’ve been a rapper.
This makes me happy, not giddy, not excited, but there’s something waiting for me that’s absolutely incomprehensible.
Twenty years ago it would’ve kept me up at night and made me cry silently into my pillow.
Many years ago I noticed I’d get those thoughts when I stayed up too late into the morning wasting my time away, and I would panic and spiral, but when I woke up I’d barely have memory of those thoughts.
Now when I stay up to late and I get those thoughts I know it’s time to go to bed, I just accept that they come, and I know that they’ll be there, they just don’t bother me. Very much like my eventual demise.
If they’re intrusive you probably haven’t had enough time to contemplate them. Live with them a while and you’ll find them to be another part of existence, and they’ll make you appreciate your existence, no matter how temporary, even more.
And don’t ever believe anyone who says they know what happen to them/you the moments following your demise, they only hope to make your time with this existence benefit themselves.
I can’t wait to get home and not have the energy or time to play the games I love.
Bwahaha, would love if that was the case. Maybe I was more aggressive as a teen? Maybe I pushed harder into areas where I was under leveled? Except I know that isn’t the case because I’m much more impatient as a gamer the days. I know that food and water were much more important to have on hand because of how frequently you’d need to rest between mobs I remember reaching the next tier of food and being relieved that I didn’t have to wait the entire 20 seconds, sometimes more if I needed 2 rounds of water to fill my mana bar, on the re-release there was barely any down time when grinding the lower levels.
I’m often one to question people’s rose tinted glasses, and I’m not upset for anyone to question my memory, but the"classic" release was made (not saying intentionally) easier than the original release (as a day 1 release player, through cataclysm)
