To be clear, they are not intending on creating new games based on Olympic events. They are talking about incorporating esports into the Olympics somehow.

I love commentary and streaming services almost never have it. That’s the biggest loss.

I was thinking about trying it. I’ve always wanted to like Pokemon, but every video of it I’ve watched just makes it seem incredibly childish with the most boring combat system I’ve ever seen.

But, I like the idea of collecting Pokemon and needing to really search to complete a collection. But, I just can’t get past the apparently boring combat.

This cassette theme seems interesting, but is the combat interesting at all?

Play different games. Walkabout golf is a fantastic multiplayer game. I consider it the killer app. My family plays it regularly.

I wish they’d focus more on releasing VR board games. My family and friends are scattered around the world and VR is fantastic for playing board games with them if only they’d release them.

If the only thing you like playing is FPS games then I guess VR isn’t for you though.

Is this really a painting? It looks so real!

Dark Souls II I am really enjoying it. I think this is my new 2nd favorite souls game after DS1.

No, it’s a lie. They wouldn’t say yes, so saying that they would say yes is a lie.

Only thing I care about is that they keep the split controller design. It’s the only controller I can easily use while walking on a treadmill. Holding a controller with two hands while walking is awkward. The split controller allows me to swing my arms normally.

In some paintings the face seems more real than everything else.

Small sticky notes. That allows me to bookmark at a specific sentence rather than just the page.

I understand the downvotes, but that law really needs reforming. The labels need to say in what way it can cause harm. I remember seeing a piece of wood (pressboard) labelled as carcinogenic at Home Depot. I couldn’t figure out what that meant. Is it ok as long as I don’t burn it? Is it bad to breath near it? Is it only dangerous if I eat it?

Labels need to be more specific about possible dangers.

I never thought of Sin City being different in that way. But it is. Whole sections are just the current character talking to themselves.

I hated the Mule in the books. Wrecked the books from that point on in my opinion. But, loved everything in foundation before that.

Git is something that is very comfortable to use after a year or two, but when you initially start using it, it is just so easy to mess things up in ways that are unrecoverable. I remember the silly days when I’d back up all my changes first before using git since I would so regularly lose everything through a combination of git commands.

It’s easy for me now, but the initial stages punish mistakes severely. It’s the dark souls of source control, except it’s not really fun. It’s just a very beginner unfriendly tool.

I’d recommend just getting a steam deck if you don’t just want to get a PC. The variety of indie titles and the lower cost just beats any of the standard consoles.

A PC is even better, but the cost of the initial hardware is probably higher. But you can’t beat the price of the games or the variety of games available. And the PC won’t expire the way modern online consoles do.

I have a PS3 that won’t play movies from disc anymore because its online service is down or something. Ridiculous.

Every instance just needs to store the communities they use, just like now. But once cached, any other instance could grab those messages from any of those instances. It’d be a peer to peer sort of organization.

I can think of lots of caveats regarding freshness of content and trust and ensuring the tree of instances is auto organized to minimize depth. Maybe for trust you could have signatures for all content signed using keys that every instance could pull from the original instance just once every now and then.

Upvotes and responses would just travel up the tree in the reverse trip from the way content came down.

But, I think it’s similar to other things that already exist. These problems seem solvable.

If it worked like torrenting where you have seeds, etc, it’d scale almost infinitely. I don’t think we should change to fit the algorithm. We should change the algorithm to make it scale.

Just checked. I haven’t played for a few months. Didn’t even know about update 8. Love that parachutes aren’t consumed on use now!

I can’t remember dust storms in that game. When do they happen? Or maybe they happen somewhere away from where I built my bases.

I noticed that occasionally. I just assumed it differed based on the instance of the post or something. My Lemmy experience has been a lot better since I switched away from lemmy.world. Used to have crashes but haven’t crashed since switching.But, lots of stuff is changing, so maybe it was something else.
