There are very few games from large companies that don’t tilt favor one way or another. Generally speaking though there is usually some way around this and much more skilled players will do better, but joe schmoe after an awesome game will always end up on the shitter team one way or another next game.

Bro I’m no beanstalk but being fat is absolutely not healthy.

There is something to be said about the health benefits of being comfortable in your own body, but you also don’t have to be ashamed of yourself to realize that there are genuine benefits to losing excess body fat. You only do yourself a disservice by buying the idea that being big is a healthy and worthwhile goal to aspire to. Generally being overweight is a condition of compounding factors that may well be outside of ones ability to control, and I guess the first step to being healthier is to acknowledge these facts.

Those were his eyebrows TBH

Wow these Aflac commercials are getting real woke

To be honest Lemmy is just the right amount of content for me, and generally high quality.

It has also gotten me out of my doom scrolling habits that were causing anxiety issues. Thank God for that.

What’s a reddit

If Linus was his own boss he’d have fired himself.

This is some shit. I’m actually glad I didn’t apply to do engineering work there now. I am realizing if this kind of stuff had happened to me I’d likely be fired because I would nip that shit in the bud immediately, if it happened to me or if I had seen it happening to someone else. It’s not right.

A $100million dollar company should be able to reclaim that property even if it means paying through the nose to get it back to the rightful owner. Losing a mass production GPU is one thing, that can be fixed with a check. A one of a kind prototype though? And who would make the decision to give something like that away, especially without consent? Things like that should come with a letter of endorsement of the charity sale, or at least have a (year plus) pause before just giving it away.

So is it just me or did anyone else notice how the tone of LTT videos changed after Linus stepped down from CEO? Everything seems to be on rails with 'uncanny valley’s levels of scripting.

I get it, production quality and writing getting ‘better’ but it feels like it’s being forced whereas before things were more ad-lib. You can see pretty clearly the difference in tone between the podcast and their videos… Not sure how to reconcile the two of if there really is a need… But it has been bothering me lately. They went through a similar stage a few years ago where their style really bothered me, and then it got better… so maybe it’s more the writing/direction than anything else which can change depending on who is working on a particular video.

Edit: I just got through this video and, yeah… A lot of their reporting errors seem concerning, if anything not because there are particular errors here and there but because conclusions are being drawn from errors. The frequency is pretty astounding too… Would highly recommend people watch this one, as ethical and impartial reporting is a dying art. Gamers Nexus definitely tries (although nobody is perfect, and sometimes their anal attention to detail can be frustrating) with Steve seemingly having his heart in the right place when it comes to providing information that consumers can utilize in good conscience when making decisions. I have my issues with some of Steve’s reporting at times, but I seldom question the validity of the content, whereas now LTT kinda looks like a crap shoot. No more reliable than the clickbait thumbnails you see on every other channel, LTT notwithstanding.

Maybe we should just celebrate that there isn’t a closed API forcing us to use just one app?
