I grab everything on Epic and use playnite to browse my collection.

I recently started playing Gravity Circuit and it is great!

As someone who recently made the switch with zero Linux experience, I completely agree.

That ideological diversity did not just fade on its own. Over the past decade it has been actively pruned away. Spaces like r/conservative now routinely permaban anyone who steps outside an approved line, including the kind of libertarian arguments that used to be common. What remains is a tightly controlled echo chamber that presents itself as grassroots discussion while functioning more like propaganda. Given that shift, it is hard to take it seriously as a place for real conservative debate.

I’m one of the few who has had it at the top for as long as I can remember. It absolutely infuriated me to find out the feature had been removed.

I was using Reddit Sync. When the API nonsense went down, the Dev announced that they were switching to Lemmy. I’ve stayed on the app and now feel like I’m part of a much richer community. I’m glad to be here.

I’m on my 3rd all achievement run of Into the Breach. Subset is God tier.

It’s like those scam emails that are obviously fake. The sloppy writing isn’t by mistake. It filters out the people who would question it, leaving only those who don’t read carefully or think critically. What seems like incompetence is the strategy.

This ad works the same way.

“Never think twice about doing what’s right” sounds like a call for decisiveness, but it’s a call for impulsivity. If you never think twice, you never pause to consider whether what you’re being asked to do is actually right. You never weigh legality. You never examine morality. You simply obey.

They’re not looking for people who act ethically. They’re looking for people who won’t question.

They don’t want judgment. They want compliance.

If you stopped to think about what this ad implies, you’ve already proven you’re not the kind of person they’re trying to recruit.

I’ve found more genuine and enlightening conversations here in two years than I ever did in Reddit. They can have that trashcan. I’m having fun here without them.

Absolutely! The opinions you see on platforms like Lemmy or Reddit don’t necessarily reflect the views of the actual target market. Many of those users are casual gamers. These are people who own a phone and an Xbox, and that’s the extent of their gaming experience.

That market is HUGE. Valve is offering accessibility, convenience, and comparable (to consoles) performance without the complexity of PC gaming. I think it’s a fantastic move, and I’m genuinely excited to see it succeed. I have long wanted to play with more of my work friends who fall into this category.

I spent the last two days building a machine from old parts and installing Linux Mint. It’s my first time using Linux and I am really surprised at how lovely it is. I am still learning, but I can easily see it replacing my home gaming PC. I have yet to find something I can’t get to work.

CrossCode.

I picked it up on sale cause it looked like something I would like. It sat in my steam library for years before I played it on a whim.

What I didn’t expect was an incredible story that would have me gripped till the end. Absolutely an awesome game.

A thousand times this. There were a lot of stories that made me cry, but Alice had me sobbing. When you had to walk slowly to stay with her, I felt like I was walking with my grandmother towards the end.

Incredible game.

Do you know what the genetic difference is between a human alive today and one who lived 100,000 years ago? Almost none.

The real difference is shared knowledge. Every generation stands on the shoulders of those before it. You hold in your hands more understanding than any person in history could have imagined.

You will always be ignorant, not as a flaw, but as a truth of being human. Accepting that is where real learning begins.

Stay curious. Curiosity keeps you open to the world. It grows empathy, invites wonder, and reminds you that every person you meet carries a piece of the story you haven’t heard yet.

And when you share what you’ve learned, don’t speak as though you hold the final word. Speak as someone who has explored, reflected, and arrived at their understanding with care.

Learning is a lifelong conversation, one that connects you to every curious mind that ever lived. So keep asking, keep listening, keep growing. The future needs you.

Solid list! I am glad someone else recommended Dragon Quest 8 as it’s god tier good.

I like Dark Cloud 2 more than the original myself. It’s completely separate from the original and feels like an improvement on the concepts of the first.

“Are we the baddies?”

The fact that you need a /s makes me very sad.

Most agricultural products go through screening to remove unwanted materials, but these systems can miss items that closely resemble the food in size and appearance. For example, I once bit into a rock that looked exactly like an almond in a bag of almonds. While it’s a rare occurrence, it’s still important to stay cautious. If something like this happens, contact the company and provide the product’s serial or lot number. This helps them trace where and when it was packaged and check if there was a problem with the screening process.

Yeah, I started on Flubuntu, then hopped to Mantrix, tried out Zorblite for a while, eventually ended up on Quasarch. Thought I’d settle there, but now I’m deep into VortexOS with full Grindle support. Honestly, once you get used to Fluxstack and ZIMFS snapshots, there’s really no going back.

I followed reddit sync over to lemmy. I didn’t know how anything works but my experience has been roughly the same as it was with Reddit. I like the discussion here more though.

It’s so much more effective when you keep things as neutral as possible. I will often ask it to tear apart my argument as though I am my opponent and use its tendency to align with the user against itself.
