I haven’t played Myst since the 90s! Such a great game.
As long as you download it now, then you can keep the game as long as you’re a member of PS+. So if you even think you might play it in the future, download it now. Once it rotates off the subscription, then it won’t be available for download anymore (but people who already downloaded it can keep it).
I guess I’m just frustrated because people have constantly told me to join a small instance and not overload the big ones. But then when you join a small instance, it gets botted exactly because it’s small and the admins don’t have the resources. So now I am back to square one! I don’t have loyalty to any particular instance, I just want to see everything from everybody, and it feels like it shouldn’t be this difficult. Sorry for venting.
I have an account with Rammy that I had created specifically because I wanted to be able to interact with both Beehaw and Lemmy.World. It is so hard to find an instance that lets me interact with both, because Beehaw keeps defederating things. Does anyone have any advice on an instance I can join which federates with both Beehaw and Lemmy.world, and isn’t going to get on Beehaw’s defederating list in a week?
The fact that it’s a wireless controller is what I really don’t understand. Why would you want to risk interference, battery issues, etc?
The development of this game makes construction of a nuclear power plant look timely and cheap.
Pence is a religious zealot, and I think he believes God is calling him to run, so he doesn’t care what the polls or common sense seem to say. He believes that somehow God’s plan will work out. We’ll see how that goes for him…
What’s sad is that back in the old days of Reddit, Reddiquette was actually a thing and people followed that rule more. In recent years, though, it feels like Reddiquette is completely dead.
Post any kind of dissenting opinion and you’ll get downvoted into absolute oblivion. And I’m not just speaking about politics. You can write a well thought out comment in any sub that goes against the grain, and the culture is just totally to downvote for disagreement. I think my most downvoted comment of all time on Reddit was on r/juicing when I questioned whether carrot juice was actually effective for depression lol.
Can anyone tell me what the “196” community is? If I sort my feed by All, it gives me a ton of memes from there but I can’t tell what it is.
Yeah, the niche subreddits are what I really hate to leave behind. I could care less about leaving r/politics, r/AskReddit, etc. But I’ll miss r/EtrianOdyssey (niche video game series).
But we’ll just have to create these communities on Lemmy. I’m in it for the long haul.
I love the Mystery Dungeon games. Most people know about the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon ones, but there are also Etrian Mystery Dungeon I & II, Shiren the Wanderer titles, Taloon’s Great Adventure, Chocobo Mystery Dungeon, and more!
I like them because they are pretty casual games you can pick up and put down easily, but if you want to get deeper into the strategy, you can. We didn’t get these games in the West until the Nintendo DS era, but they started with the SNES in Japan.

I really like the policy of no downvotes. Honestly, even on Reddit I think downvoting had long ceased to serve any useful purpose, and turned into a harmful tool. Anything that truly is bad content can just be reported instead.
Wikipedia is another example. One of the most heavily visited websites, operated as a nonprofit. Obviously they don’t only rely on donations from visitors, as they have a whole foundation. But they are a great example IMO.
I spent years on Reddit and somehow didn’t realize until today what an unscrupulous person he is. And not only unscrupulous, but downright unprofessional.
We can say what we want about someone like Mark Zuckerberg, but he would never behave in the way that Spez did in that AMA. It’s just not befitting of the CEO of a company.
It’s astounding that Prigozhin was so naive as to think that he could attempt a coup against Putin, and then simply retire in exile to Belarus. Everybody knew something like this would happen, except Prigozhin himself apparently. People have suffered ‘unfortunate accidents’ at the hands of Putin for far less.
