I don’t let the problem get that bad in the first place.
On my computer, I close the browser end of day and all the tabs go away. On my phone, it auto archives tabs I haven’t looked at in a week. I close those periodically, but a few I use as off brand bookmarks (eg: a recipe I like)
Thus hiring someone to fix your plumbing or do your yard work is sociopathy?
Also two people can have mutually enjoyable sex without “love”.
You’ve got a weird take.
That’s why I did it too, but let’s be fair, dice are supposed to be random.
Yeah, I realized in my older age that I don’t actually like a lot of random. I liked new Vegas where you either had the skill or you didn’t. In tabletop games I like dice pools to make the results less evenly distributed among all possible outcomes, and then options like fate points and “succeed at a cost” on top of that.
Some people I guess really like the random dice effects, but usually it just makes me grumpy. To each their own.
I’ve thought about switching. I do like the password saving and syncing between Android and desktop that Firefox does, and I’m not sure if the forks do that.
No regrets on switching to Linux here. Almost all of the time I just use the GUI to launch steam or Firefox. No AI nagging me (aside from whatever nonsense Firefox is up to)
Most of my save scumming comes from being annoyed at the random factor. Like I have a +8 on Skill and it rolled me a 3, failing? Nah that’s stupid. Reload.
Less random, less save scumming. You can have good systems with low random factors.
Inspiration helped in bg3, but it’s a pretty limited resource and can still fail.
I did save scum once in a fight where I rolled four natural 1s in a row. The odds of that are too low for me to believe that was legitimately random.
I didn’t get one because it’s too expensive.
Steam deck was a little pricey but it has a backlog of games going back like 50 years, and I already have a large library. Plus the games are cheaper.
I feel like online spaces like lemmy over represent some behaviors.
Uh… What?
Game A has 100 recommends, 300 not-recommend
Game B has 90 recommends, 10 not-recommends.
Is A more highly recommended? In a meaningful way?
I guess I’m lucky almost no one I know is trying to side hustle slop their way into money. I don’t think I would put up with that happily.
Mark is a good, kind person
No he’s not.
He has done tremendous, incalculable, harm to countless people. All of our lives are worse because Zuckerberg is an asshole.
I’m not sure what you’re trying to ask but maybe this comic will be interesting anyway
Microsoft 365 is a worse name than Microsoft Office.
Good. As expected. So tired of cars having such priority and special treatment.
People are idiots. They believe things that feel good.
I think most people are kind of bad with money, and I think that scales with income.
I think a lot about some old coworkers (six figure salary). We all wanted to go out for a party after work. A bunch of then paid like $80 for a car. I paid $3 for a subway ride. Got there at the same time.
Maybe that’s not so much “bad at money” exactly as have incomprehensible to me values.
Been pretty happy with Linux for the past year or two.
A few minor problems here and there. I was struggling to figure out how to adjust the screen brightness (pop!_os defaults). Found a command line tool to adjust gamma - my girlfriend was a little baffled. Then I realized I should just adjust the brightness on the display itself, on the hardware.
I (cis man) always fully close the toilet when it’s not in use. Never would occur to me to do otherwise.
Some of my women friends leave the seat down lid open, but then their cats drink out of the toilet.
Expected more people arguing about dark souls in here. There’s usually a contingent of people going at it over “I want to win on the first or maybe second try” vs “the game is about failing repeatedly until you persevere”
I tell people about lemmy and send them links. Mostly people don’t care about anything. Abstract or remote things like “should a platform be owned by one asshole?” just doesn’t even enter their brain.
