marzhall@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•10 years later, no one has replicated Rocket League's mojoEnglish7·15 days agoIn case you didn’t see the trick further down the thread - you have to make sure to install the windows version of the game that runs with proton. Then you can connect to online matches. Installing the linux version is a trap; frankly, they should just delist it at this point.
marzhall@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do, relatively, so few of you set an avatar for your profile?12·1 month agoHeck, I was salty when the old site added avatars. I already ignored names and was weirded out by “popular redditors” culture before avatars, and it was annoying to see a logo next to a name coloring my perception of the comment. I’m here to read comments, not to look at avatars

…on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.

marzhall@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I'm not much into stocks but does the squiggly trendline snakey guy have a name?5·3 months agoY’know you jest, but when I was very young I didn’t understand why all the other kids I could just call by their first name, but the girl across the street I had to call “Miss Shell”
marzhall@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is one moral you have that most people don't agree with?52·3 months agoI have a take on this that I think no one will have fun with:
In my opinion there is no moral way to keep a cat as a pet.
Allowing cats to roam as they desire results in the aforementioned ecological damage. The opposite - keeping cats locked in a few thousand feet at best for twenty-odd years of life - is cruel.
As someone who was raised in the woods with outdoor cats and couldn’t imagine keeping them inside - even though we lost two as I grew up - it’s a circle I just can’t square. So I figure that if and when I get cats, I’ll dodge the question and adopt some older cats who were already raised inside and couldn’t be trusted to go outside safely anyway.
marzhall@lemmy.worldto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•There is very little point of talking about abortion to anyone over the age of 25. They've already made up their mind and you won't convince them to change. The only solution is voting.English10·4 months agoSure, but how do you get them to vote about it?
Turnout at the polls is definitely impacted by:
- knowing something is even being voted on
- being reminded and having expanded how important something is
- just perceiving other people are going to go vote too
and so it’s important to discuss something that’s going to be voted on, even if the audience has already made up their mind.

marzhall@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was your favorite IRL needle drop moment?11·4 months agoAt a buddy’s wedding. Said buddy had endured college years in my car with my one mix CD, which included the classic “Call On Me” that he’d heard so many times it had become a running joke - and which one night when he was out switching his laundry, he heard in the distance at surreal volume and realized that there was an apartment close to us that was blasting it, just as I happened to be walking from that direction (and jamming to it).
Well, of course, it started blasting at his wedding twelve years later, and we went mad - I gave him props, and he said he didn’t ask for it, the DJ just picked the right jam. Was a great moment.
There’s not a level of automation that exists that could handle the loss of workers.
You appear entirely unaware of test programs like Canadian Mincome showing minimal employment drop, with some spinning up businesses by claiming the income against loans. The people who dropped out entirely were nearly all either continuing education or mothers raising kids.
This is replicated in projects like those in Africa.
Basically, the answer to the knee-jerk “wouldn’t everyone just stop working?” question is “actually, no.”

marzhall@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Younger people of Lemmy. Would you buy a CD at a concert?2·11 months agoYo, the Elder hot sauce is great, though. I went online to buy more a few months after I saw them, lol
I love this. Between the people who didn’t notice it the same way I absolutely would not have, and the people who just say what obviously was intended, this could go forever and drive a couple of people absolutely insane.
