that’s the fun part, we’re so starved for attention that any compliment will do!

you ever been so bottom-brained that you don’t even care that it’s not fun?

People will post this as if tribal conflicts over land and resources just didn’t exist during that time period.

The truth is that people have always been shitty.

I don’t know if that’s a good bet to make, I think Lemmy trends more towards the educated types who would learn it as a piece of general trivia.

Y’know, when I was a kid growing up and reading Dune for the first time, I thought the Butlerian Jihad was such a silly concept. Why would we as a species go on a crusade against AI so powerful that it would remain banned thousands of years later, especially in a setting that could really use AI assistance to handle space travel?

Now? I get it, and that kinda total societal rejection of AI as a concept seems to kinda be what Mike was talking towards. We need a Butlerian Jihad.

okay but could I maybe stumble behind and feel the whip >.<

Coming from a midwestern American educational system, we were never taught the origin of numbers. They just teach what the numbers are.

I have a countertop unit, it works very well! Requires a modern faucet to hook up though, which in my experience most affordable apartments in the U.S. don’t have, so you have to install a new faucet.

Yup, and every time I have to deal with Windows bullshit at work, I get a little bit happier that I don’t have to deal with it when I go home.

My cats looove hitting my power button. It got so bad that I started setting a box on top of my computer just to block the power button, but they frequently still try to push the box away so they can turn off the computer.

Anyone wanna start a betting pool on the number of rounds of voting it’ll take for them to elect a new speaker? I’m feeling good about 12 rounds.

needs to be showered in yummy treats stat!

… and also probably just showered

This may shock you, but women are into femboys.

that last shot makes it seem like it’s still basically regions on a map, with the difference being purely visual. I’m more surprised that it’s going to be a heavy ranged focus, considering how many issues WH3 has had with ranged combat

holy shit those last few seconds of actual gameplay. game looks a lot like the Dawn of War series, which is fitting. I wasn’t really sure 40k could fit the Total War mould, but seems like CA is willing to break the mould in pursuit of more money.

p sure that’s the gamble Ukraine is taking here. their assumption is that Russia won’t, but they don’t want to seem like they’re the ones holding up an end to the war.

I dunno if it really counts, because these days I play Diablo 2 Resurrected instead of the real OG, but god I still love Diablo 2. I was playing a Druid Maul build a little bit just last weekend in anticipation of Path of Exile 2 adding animal transformations. It’s just one of those classic Blizzard titles I go back to at least once every year, alongside Warcraft 3 and Starcraft. They’re like the triumvirate of my childhood nostalgia.

Wish the company wasn’t so awful.

I’m so torn up by the sequel. It was pretty mid overall, but the final bossfight was so incredibly infuriating that it ruined my overall impression of the game, so much so that I’d rather the sequel never existed at all.

It is, but it’s a little weird when compared to the post because it’s still getting updates.

That’s why I play World of Warcraft Classic, which is actually the game from 20 years ago (technically 18 since I’ll be playing Burning Crusade Classic soon.)
