  • “gamers” would have a cow if there was ever a sequel seriously discussed. He already charged them once, how dare he charge them again.

    I suspect 10-20% of the community would take that stance, even if it’s only a few%, it would absolutely be magnified by the echo chamber and there will be talk or how concerned ape left stardew valley “incomplete” and it’s "abandon-ware"and all future products should be pirated.


  • Very easy to tell if someone knows what they wrote about in a two minute conversation. My wife grades/t.a’s at a university, it’s obvious when someone doesn’t know the information in person (and she’s very understanding towards people who cannot verbalize the information but still know it). The old professors aren’t very keen to it, but the graders can very easily smell the bullshit.

    And if you know the information well enough, but send it through gpt for editing/refinement, that’s usually accepted, unless you’re in a class that grades on composition.






  • The sheets of paper are getting filled in minutes before they’re announced,

    The teams can trade their picks between each other,

    It’s not known what teams are going to take what players, if my team (4) thinks team 1 is going to take player A, and team 2 isn’t interested in that player but team 3 is, if team 1 takes player b instead my team might talk with team 2 about trading draft pick positions so we can get that player.

    There’s a lot of talking between a lot of professionals representing a lot of teams, the whole situation is very fluid, and it might change the course of your franchise (unless you’re the Jets)

    It’s also 3 days of spectacle.






  • Here’s my tip, for Lemmy hopefully it will never get so popular as to not work any more.

    Answer the phone for unknown numbers, don’t say a g-d thing, just listen. Let them address you first.

    If they ask for you by name go ahead and respond, if they call back answer with a generic “hi” greeting, don’t let them have your voice or name before you know who they are and what their business is.

    A robot will mark your number as a “dead line” and not call you again.

    A person will either be trying to reach you (and know who you are) or trying to reach a living person, and not waste their time with an unresponsive line.




  • It definitely had more games! Was very satisfied when the previews ended where they did, would’ve been amazing to have more but it was already so much,

    Absolutely 10/10 protection, added a fair number of games to my wishlist, and even bought a couple. And It was fun trying to guess what games were before their titles came up.

    Is that deep rock galactic going to be another free content update? At first I thought they were finally integrating what they learned from deep rock galactic survivors (and that would explain why they’ve never thought too long on multiplayer), but that has to be way too much for just a content update, right? Jeez coffee stain continues to knock it out of the park.
