At .05 fps, it’s faster to restart entirely.

Is the steam game still a fight against the frame rate or can I let a hundred cats breed in my fortress without restarting?

For your edification and posterity. This. What you just wrote. I totally agree. Like a chef serving a bowl of stew, you stuck your ladel into my brain and from my incoherent abstract thoughts were able to form the exact sentiment of what it is I was feeling. Down to a decimal of a decimal, more perfectly than I ever could have iterated, you captured the essence of every nuance I experienced relating to the subject matter. No words could portray the awe I felt knowing that somebody shared the exact same thought process as me. Not only that, but with the ability to articulate in such a refined manner the depth of said thought process. No words could describe that feeling. Except one. This.

Cliffsnotes: adblockers are ruining the internet!

they’re a response to the internet being ruined. Self served ads are the only way forward.

The internet is ruined? See? Adblockers already ruined it.

It was a young person without a grasp on the situation and only a very cursory understanding of what caused adblockers to become popular. They were as much trying to convince themselves as me, and the argument frankly made me nostalgic.

It’s far from unique to the US, people from India, France, China, and Russia often despise seeing outside criticism as well and they comprise over half the population of earth. And it’s mostly the topic of conversation and time of day. Were you not to have identified as American earlier, I’d have assumed you to be German or British at this hour.

It’s less that I put out an overt political view or location identifier and more that if my post seems agnostic, inferences will be made and a coin will be flipped. The funny thing is, I sometimes win the flip in one place and lose it in another. I can be +5 on lemmy and -10 on kbin because of ambiguity. I’m just like “kids getting shot is bad” and I can feel the hatred pointed at my British self. (I’m not British)

There’s a certain degree of truth to it. Americans seem fine with being the butt of a joke as long as the person joking is American and not far left/right. If you offer any doubt about the political or geographic origin of your joke, it’ll often be taken poorly. I enjoy being flamed and so was eager to figure out the political joke context puzzle. +2/-16 and 6 replies, babeeee

To the user in this community who argued that adblockers are killing the internet, lol. Lmao, even. Enjoy your attack vector, buddy.

If you check on Reddit, you’ll find this site posted exclusively in divisive rightwing communities and nearly exclusively (and prolifically) by a handful of accounts owned by the site owners. Only 3 accounts post this site on lemmy as well. Hmm

This further emphasizes the need to not just find a decent review site but to find a reviewer who shares your tastes. AI can review all it likes, I’m sticking with my favorite reviewers.

I can never get into civilization due to the nature of the difficulty settings. Every difficulty is terrible at the game, but cheats an order of magnitude more than the previous one. On the other hand, civilization is fun against friends, but I can’t sucker any into spending 46 hours mounting a campaign against my glorious beacon of culture and violence... more than once.

Asking about the one piece anime is a good litmus test for potential friends. If they hate it, they have decent taste. If they like it, they’ll probably accept my extended, meandering tangents.
