You can't expect the assholes who need to win to "just enjoy the game" when they aren't playing multiplayer games for that reason.

As for point 2, every server-sode solution I've seen has just not worked lol. RuneScape comes to mind when I think of how much that seems to fail

"that doesn't work" people are just better educated versions of the my-anecdote-disproves-science types. Those people usually need more local engagement because of fuckin-course you can't tell if voting is working when the gap between the individual voter and federal level reps is so huge. Anyone who's paying attention to their local elections knows votes matter.

Gran Turismo has similar stuff and is just better as a driving sim game.

This comic is neither left-right or right-left orientation and that should be punishable by death.

Why is it even a question? Would you rather live in a plague of nepobabies? Meritocracy isn't some stretched definition or vague notion being chased.

Wizards are disturbers of the peace. NO WIZARDS

Bruh that's so rude, they're just programmers, no need to call them names

Their comment didn't contain enough disdain for women.

I definitely believe this, but do you have a source I can point to for others?

It's also worth noting that free range and organic eggs got hit waasaay less than your average factory farm egg, therefore it probably hurt Amazon a lot less to keep eggs low compared to other grocers.

Nah, I'd say this fits solidly in the category of "heaps of research indicating that single men suffer more in situations that promote isolation". Adversarial language or not, the average Lemmy users is so far in their own social phobia that they don't register that most humans, being social animals, thrive with MORE interaction and not less.

Itt: cognitive disonannce.

The study isn't bs. Lemmy users just won't accept that they don't even come close to representing the average individual.

 

I seriously cannot have any degree of nuanced conversation here.

Like I get it, we all know capitalism is bad, but it feels like every time I or anyone go towards discussing the steps that need to be taken to address current looming problems in the short term, someone has to jump in and shut it down with "capitalism bad >:[ " and tear down any idea presented because its not complete and total destruction of the current economic model.

The result just feels like an echo chamber where no actual solutions get presented other than someone posting whole ass dissertations on their 33-step (where 30/33 steps are about as vague as "we'll just handle it") plan to fully convert the world to an anarchist commune.

Edit: I still vastly prefer Lemmy and the fediverse and a whole, my complaint here is that many of you are TOO INTENSE. You blow up small scale discussion.
