• The Yakuza games aren't individually on sale (which is weird), but the Bundle and Collection are 70% and 75% off. Yakuza Zero is definitely worth playing, so for 30 bucks (in Canuck dollars), you basically get two more games for free in the bundle.
• RDR2 is 67% off and absolutely worth every penny.
• AC Origins is 85% off and AC Odyssey is 80%. I know some people have mixed opinions about Odyssey, but I honestly loved both of these games even if the historical accuracy...dips...in Odyssey.

Nanaimo as number 5 seems weird. I wonder if that's spillover over from Victoria? Like people moving to Nanaimo after getting priced out from Vic?

I think there were some federation issues because this thread wasn't showing on Lemmy.ca. It is now though! Let's see what I can still remember from Sunday lol

Gino and Jasmine are so toxic. Let's be honest here, the best thing for them would be to permanently call it off. I gotta say though, I was definitely getting frustrated on Gino's behalf. I hate to defend him because he's a doofus, but I don't see anything wrong with a prenup. I understand that the concept that one can be seen as "I don't trust you", but he was willing to write in clauses to protect her too and she just rips it up and throws it in his face. Just fucking childish.

I don't remember much else happening. Amanda seems permanently disinterested and like she's just wasting the Romanian's time. Riley seems strangely selfish? The two super Catholics are hard to watch. I can't believe the preview shows Tyray STILL holding on to a shred of hope that it's somehow still a woman on the other side of the chat when clearly it's a catfish.

This user doesn't actually have a phone. They've got access to Teams but they don't use it. Email is basically the only way to contact them. We've got several people like that around here.

Wasn't expecting someone to mention Yakuza when I opened this thread! I'm in the middle of playing Kiwami 2 right now after having played 0 and Kiwami 1 like 2 years ago. I'm super glad it had a massive recap of the previous game at the beginning because as much as like the series, there's so much shit that goes on and I didn't remember half of it. I think 0 is the standout in the series so far and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to get into the games.

I miss the rain. I have a feeling that this kind of drought is the "new normal" but I really hope it isn't.

They had the following graph on Chek last night regarding the rainfall deficit for the last 6 months. We're at about half of where we should be :(

Unfortunately, no source on this one. I shamelessly stole it from reddit (source) when I was checking in on the 3PA drama last night.

There's definitely some artifacting that makes it look AI generated. I've never seen an AI make something this complicated without making a complete mess though. I wonder if it's multiple AI prompts merged together (like the office and the outside view) or an AI generated image that was cleaned up/modified by a human afterwards.

From the original post, it sounds like this is for instances where there's a massive influx of users but little to no posts/comments. For example, the top of the spreadsheet lists lemmy.podycust.co.uk that has >86000 users and 9 Posts/34 Comments. That honestly seems pretty suspicious to me. So I don't think Beehaw or any legitimate instance is going to caught in this.

A little bit of column A and a little bit of column B. I've been pulling a lot of them from the top posts of reddit, so it's kind of a curated cream of the crop situation so far. Definitely trying to get content posted to try and kickstart this community! Glad you're enjoying them so far. I've got lots more!

Specifically for the echeveria - they need a lot of light or they get etiolated. I had to give up on trying to grow them because of that (unless you like tall gangly plants lol).

On the plus side, you can try baking apples again with your new charcoal briquette.

It's great to see all the changes they're making and that the devs are listening to community feedback. Looks like the community is also helping out a lot with all the shoutouts in that post!

HTTP API instead of Websocket

Super excited about this one. The live updates in the comments is kind of neat, but it makes trying to browse the All tab basically impossible.

I didn't see it mentioned - have they fixed the weird Hot/Active bug in this release?

Thanks @smorks for keeping this place running!
