Not subversive? I felt pretty subverted by how many Os there were.

You’re totally right, but I would also say this is a great point for understanding/ learning photo editing software. More as a tool in your pocket so that when you don’t get a nice photo, you know what is or isn’t fixable.

As someone who occasionally does professional photography/ filming, the auto setting on your camera is fine if you’re just snapping pics. Where you’d want manual is if you were taking a larger series of photos and wanted to apply the same effects/ processing to the batch.

But my booty is a treasure only for me and the crew to enjoy.

You might be younger or forgetting but before Obama it was George W., definitely not controversial… And before that there was more controversy. Americans have always had divisive elections, but there’s been a noticable uptick in the elections involving Trump.

accelerate the velocity of development

Honestly I believe them. Because velocity is a vector, development going directly backwards at an accelerating rate is in line with what they said.

But that whole argument follows the logical fallacy “whataboutism” to downplay X because Y and Z also do bad things. Just because you perceive something to be in line with a standard baseline of corporate shitiness doesn’t mean it’s not worth criticizing.

As for individualism, it’s no secret that lemmy is somewhat left leaning which contributes to the general vibe. From my experience there is a lot more nuance and depth to the discussions that happen here when factoring in population size compared to other similar areas of the internet.

I disagree. Nintendo isn’t just some company that has legal beef and comparing their shitiness with Blizzard’s is like comparing apples to oranges.

Nintendo is a litigious bully and patent troll that has a long, long list of hurting the fans that love their games. They don’t just settle for cease and desists, they historically ruin people’s lives (see Gary Bowser). What feels even worse about Nintendo is the complete misaligned of their product/ brand vs. how they treat fans. You can point to similar companies like Disney and I say that yes, I would happily cheer on any misfortune that comes to them with the same fervor as Nintendo.

That’s like whining that everyone hates Blizzard or Ubisoft because of some hive mind mentality. Could it be that maybe it’s just a commonly hated company based off their unethical actions over the last 10+ years?

I don’t want to advocate for shoveling money into any company, but if you could sell your steam games it would screw over indie devs in a big way. Many games made by small studies or one person don’t have as much content as AAA studies and would be far more prone to a small handful of copies being distributed back and forth on the used market instead of each being a sale that goes to the developer.

Some devs would see a drop in sales as much as 90% and I just don’t think it’s worth it to shoot the gaming industry in the foot like that.

Also it shows a lack of empathy. 9/10 times it’s not that the client is dumb, but that they’re unfamiliar with processes, recieved conflicting information, have other requirements you don’t know about, have personal things going on, or an endless host of other factors.

It could even be that you didn’t do your job properly in explaining or walking them through. Like if I was a customer and the client-facing representative was so fragile that he’d blow up in my face over a minor inconvenience, I probably wouldn’t feel comfortable asking for something explained a second time.

To me, it wasn’t so much about each DLC making a huge impact or the story being amazing. It was more about already playing the game to death and then gaining access to more content to explore. Kind of like eating a delicious cake, still being hungry, and then finding another slice of that cake that was sitting out all day.

I would argue that all the fo3 and oblivion DLC were decent. Some obviously better than others, but they weren’t just soulless cash grabs. They had effort go into them, and were fairly new into the DLC space so some trial and error is to be expected. They had a pretty good amount of content for the price relative to the base game, compared to the starfield DLC/ current AAA norms.

I mean you can still have grandkids. I’ve heard they’re great deep fried with a light cornmeal batter and a creamy dill sauce.

No offense but I completely agree with you.

I love Jerboa, it most closely resembles RiF from the beforetimes.

Personally, sixth thing is my favourite of the things.

I turn it off, mostly because my shower is small and i need to completely cover my body in soap before washing it off and if the water is running it’ll wash away the soap when i don’t want it to.

Also my shower knob stays at the correct temp so I don’t need to mess around to get the same temp.

Also it’s easier to onboard new people when the UI closely resembles what they’re used to.

Anime girls are the most oppressed demographic 😔
