For some reason I was just thinking about DKR yesterday. I would love another one! I had way more fun with it than MK due to the story mode and open world.

Thanks for your follow up comment because this post is more like a YSK: You Should Learn How to Budget From Somewhere But Not This Post

Have you read Brent Weeks books? He wrote a trilogy called the Night Angel trilogy, and just released a fourth novel called Nemesis. I admittedly haven’t finished the book yet, but I’m 75% through it and find it so much better than than the original three books. His writing has improved substantially over the years (side note: the Lightbringer series is incredible).

But all this is to say that Nemesis is about a heist. Weeks wanted to write a book about a heist and to try first person perspective, and Nemesis is what came from that.

Ah, it’s working now. I’m guessing just a bug or something whoops.

Yeah this one is surprisingly good. My only issue, which is a deal breaker, is that I can’t swipe from left edge to right to go back to the posts feed after clicking on a specific post. The back button is at the furthest possible placement from my thumb, so it’s just not that useable.

Burn it before it gains sentience

I’ve re-read several books and I always find that I missed things or the author was hinting at things that I didn’t notice (or had no way of knowing) and it can be really enjoyable. Plus if a character has a really great arc and shows a lot of growth I’ve found it interesting to watch them from the beginning knowing where they end up.

Eh, I don’t think so. I don’t play PC games so they weren’t on my mind, and I wouldn’t consider PCs games in the console wars discussion anyway. Could be wrong but could you give some examples of major must have Xbox exclusives?

I have to agree with the other comment… it’s not a quantity thing. Sony’s first party games have just been a far higher quality than Microsoft’s for a while. I can’t think of many Must Have Xbox games, but all the big exclusive games Sony releases are top of the chart must have games.

I personally would be a paying subscriber to Apollo right now if Reddit had announced they were going to charge a reasonable amount of money for the API. I totally understand how a massive website like that and all the servers and storage required must have cost a fortune. Paying to avoid ads is cool with me… cutting off my access to the best way to use Reddit is not.

I feel like if there was a way to dampen sounds that well then military submarines would have adopted it long ago. No idea though.

People are still people, man. If they have the money maybe they should pay back the rescue efforts if found alive (which won’t happen), but it kinda sucks to say “welp bye” and let half a dozen people slowly die if you could’ve helped.

You were unaware? Shoot, Lemmy has like 1/100,000th the user base of Reddit. Of course the vast majority of the public has no clue. I searched Google and Reddit for a Reddit alternative on and off for months before finally hearing about Lemmy two weeks ago maybe?

If there aren’t many comments (and I have something useful for the OP) or if i have a question, then even a month is okay IMO.

But if it’s a post getting a ton of comments on a super popular sub or something that hit the front page or r/all… I give up even after 24 hours because my comment will never be seen.

I gave up Reddit 100% the day the blackout started, so by default… yes. Way more time on Lemmy. As someone that isn’t on these sites that much of the time, I like Lemmy way better since I can actually contribute and have conversations. On Reddit I’m only ever replying to a post once there are a thousand replies already and it’s always buried. Here it’s much easier to chat.

I was thinking about setting up an instance to help me learn some more development stuff and practice my Terraform use, or maybe build an iOS app to learn Swift in my spare time… but I don’t really have spare time, so those things have a 99.9% chance of not happening haha.

Ah, thanks for finding the HomeKit community!

It’s what all public companies do. Once your company is public, it is somewhat your duty to raise profits every year forever and ever to make your investors money and to attract investors. It sucks, but that’s how the market works.

Aw man, day jobs are the worst

I think we are already seeing price increases on many games that are starting at $70 (USD) these days. I don’t think we’ll see another increase for quite a while.
