6·8 days agoKorra was pretty good, it wasn’t the same thing (and Thankfully wasn’t trying to be), it wasn’t as good and it was weak in some aspects, but I think saying it was bad is a stretch, it can stand on its own legs. At least the first two seasons.
Holy crap I recently found this article about a bug’s life and thought it was hilarious

Gaming@beehaw.org•Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of March 29thEnglish
1·22 days agoMostly borderlands 3 with a friend and dungeons of hinterberg by myself.
The latter takes quite a while to get mechanically interesting (combat-wise, the general flow of the game is very interesting on its own), if you like the chill vibes and cutesy people it likely won’t be a problem for you, I started playing it while I was doing something else and I feel like I had to play way too muchh before it got really interesting, before that the combat is too spimplistic and same-y, almost all of it is hidden behind game progression and I don’t think you’re supposed to have a rich full experience on your first playthrough which is… A choice… Other than that, it’s really lovely and kinda chill, it’s not the smoothest combat in the world, but you don’t play it for the combat.
Borderlands 3 has the most fun guns in the series so far from the games I’ve played with my friend, which are bl 2, bl presequel and now bl3, next in line is tiny tina’s dnd campaign, hopefully we get to finish 3 after wine 11 improvements hit my distro on the main branch, I don’t want to be swapping that stuff.

Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•I immediately skip any games that are described as "roguelike" or "soulslike"English
1·23 days agoI used to not like those, I now like them.
For souls like, the dark souls community was straight up a repellent to the game for me, seeing thr game for myself and not thinking about them was what got me into it. The sense of accomplishment is one thing but for me what I fell in love with was the atmosphere, level design and ARPG-ness.
For roguelikes, my distaste was just the frustration and futility, and not keeping progress. What I dislike now from them is the time sink to sense of accomplishment ratio. I’m still not sold on the concept itself but these days I can enjoy a game despite of it, since good games carry some properties with that that I do like (power ups, builds, the possibility of completely breaking the game, etc).
I see nothing wrong in disliking them, it is true that for many developers the second is a way to make the content last longer but just like with any other tool, as long as it’s well used it shouldn’t be an issue.
Regarding souls like, these days its used very loosely and I like that, it doesn’t tell you much of what you’re getting other than some general direction, sometimes it’s a stamina bar and a dodge, sometimes is the level design, sometimes the atmosphere, sometimes.
Don’t get carried away by just the tags, but once you see too much of the bad examples I can see why they would push you away.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What do you use for your server administration?English
1·25 days agoWhatever you interpret that as since my main goal here is to seed conversation, but the thing that I was thinking of when asking was a web gui with some live stats, doing some simple maintenance stuff, maybe manage or glance at docker/podman status and other services, etc.
Since I’ve seen some conversations about documenting setups so they can be picked up and troubleshot by someone else unfamiliar with the setup like a family member, I expected it would be common to lower the friction for basic maintenance but seeing the amount of ssh comments makes me think otherwise, maybe more people use their servers exclusively for personal entertainment than I expected.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Did you drink alcohol when you were younger than me?English
11·1 month agoIve tasted wine and beer and had cider and champagne for toasts, didn’t drink more than a few sips.
Combining it all I don’t think I added up to a whole glass in less than a year, I see no problem in trying stuff and doing toasts, but I’ve also haven’t had contact with heavy alcoholics so it’s easy for me to say something like that, if I’ve had experience with alcoholics in my family I’d probably not even want to try.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you intake caffeine and how much?English
1·1 month agoYerba mate 🧉 when i have a few hours to chill and don’t work the next day, occasionally soda too under the same conditions, although I almost never buy soda for myself because it has been tasting like shit in the last few years in my country. I wouldn’t say a lot unless i have both because I tend to drink a lot of liquid

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Do you stick to the same linux distro across your devices?English
2·1 month agoMy laptop needs reliability to be fairly certain I’ll have everything working when I use it on poor internet, my desktop is always comnected to high bandwidth and has a decent cpu so I can spare a bit extra time and cycles on updating everything when something breaks
Different needs
I did like having the same thing going on on both for the couple months I used mint on both.
I use linux exclusively on desktop, it’s got a lot of problems, many seem unique to the user, I hate that the way to discuss the problems for a lot of people is pretending they don’t exist, makes first contact more problematic for newcomers. Even before touching linux I’ve been hating that attitude with a passion from windows users, at least it’s not a problem exclusive to linux.

That’s how the Caesar in fallout new vegas came to be, isn’t it? He was the only one who cared about history and understood the basic concept that history tends to repeat itself so he filled the role before anyone else could.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would be needed for a new video hosting service to overtake YouTube?English
9·2 months agoI believe the biggest hurdle (even bigger than the mountain of tech and capital needed) is people having the will to try to migrate to something else.
Everyone talks big about stuff beong crap but almost nobody puts an ounce of effort into trying, even when there are viable alternatives, the slight amount of discomfort of actually making the switch is enough of a deterrent to actually do it.
Think of when everyone were doing that reddit blackout where they would solemnly swear they would come back after pretending they would abandon it, lemmy existed, forums existed, nothing was one-to-one with reddit so barely anyone actually did leave or even tried replacing it with something else.

Linux@programming.dev•Linux Mint isn't the answer for Windows refugees anymoreEnglish
2·3 months agoI switched to mint for a few months to have the same thing I recommended my friend, I decided to switch again to something i consider bdtter for me.
There’s nothing wrong with mint, at most you’re missing a thing or two that are part of other base distros that you can add on your own, it’s preference, that’s all
Technically there can be some performance gains on a different distro but then you have to do tinkering and stuff. If I had to keep maining mint I wouldn’t mind at all (and some things are way easier and painless).
One thing: browsers have had some issues in every distro I tried other than cachyos, nothing major but a bit of frame drops here and there

Linux@programming.dev•Linux Mint isn't the answer for Windows refugees anymoreEnglish
3·3 months agoI’ve seen a similar thesis in video form yesterday, I feel like in both cases the author forgot the fear they had before making the choice and think that sidestepping the solution to that part is no biggie.
But we’re talking about people who are afraid of a black box where you type text, they need as little friction as possible.
Hindsight is 20/20



I do it when I take a pic with my Mom’s or a couple other people’s phones, some people do not even care that they put their fingers on the lens, and some phones are just made in such a way that it’s hard to avoid if you’re not thinking about it.
Edit: I have had it happen to me a few times, I dislike calls with the phone pressed against my ear with a passion so I tend to avoid it, but I feel like that makes it more likely to smudge the lens so if you do it often.
