Iirc, top level posts are supposed to pertain to the study itself. That isn’t really something negative in a science community, imo. Look at practically every top level comment here to see the reason.

This is what many Steam Deck users seem to pursue.

Personally, yes.

I don’t think it goes on sale, at least not for any significant amount. To be fair, it’s easily worth the full price, which is not something I often say.

That’s the problem with the fediverse in general. It’s a lovely concept, but it’s hard to sell people on something that has 10% (if we’re being generous) of the content they’re used to.

Maybe, but even ten years ago, people would have hesitated to say this kind of thing publicly. Or am I wrong in thinking that? It’s not that I think it didn’t happen, but it seems to me that it happens with much greater frequency now.

What the everloving fuck is going on? Why is society regressing so far with all of these bullshit views?

That’s behavior from games 30+ years ago.

Ah, the rose tinted glasses of nostalgia.

I miss OMD: Unchained. 😔

I think spellings and punctuation are still valid. Mostly. Ignore variations between English and Americanese.

I don’t summon real people unless I’m truly desperate, but I absolutely use what the game has given me. I don’t like to repeatedly have my ass handed to me, and while I could “git gud” (and would have done so in my teens and 20s), I’d rather enjoy my limited play time.

My wife’s uncle brought out some homemade dynamite. I wasn’t getting anywhere near it, but that shit rocked the house from across the field.

Public safety.

My area has been under a heat advisory for most of the last week. If I ran, I would do so on a treadmill.

Beryl is a mineral. There are definitely women with the name, and there are likely some men, too (though A Boy Named Beryl doesn’t have the same ring to it).

He needs to act to safeguard our democracy, because others will not have the same hangups in doing the opposite. Acting with the power they have granted him in order to prevent future issues is not corruption.

Well that’s certainly true, but Biden is a problem that really shouldn’t exist. He is by far the lesser of two evils, but we still deserve better.

There will always be exhibitionists and people who just like to fuck, but sex work is, by definition, transactional. You’re not going to see a society with free communal whores who aren’t being compensated in any way.

Ah, so I did. Not sure how I managed that, considering how relevant those points should be here.
