The State? Misinformation

And that’s how you get Republicans saying that Haitians are eating pets in Ohio.

We literally saw the outside world and thought “not for me” and invented houses.

Other kid not drawn because that kind of violence and gore would be unacceptable in the 50s.

(“You should see the other guy.”)

It just works like the way Skyrim VR just works or will it make HL2 the same kind of experience as HL: Alyx?

I’m not sure if people looking for something laid out like Twitter or other microblogging sites would necessarily move to Lemmy, which is more like a forum. The activities on any social media may be largely the same, but presentation matters a lot.

To me, Lemmy and other forum style SM is like going to a bar and finding people to have a conversation, where as Twitter/BlueSky/Mastodon/etc are like standing on a street corner and just yelling random thoughts.

My husky is like this most of the time. Follows me everywhere but just to be in the same room. If she wants cuddles, she will demand them by scratching me and grabbing my hand with her mouth.

If they appeared with guns, wouldn’t the robodogs also be strapped?

Has anyone ever actually ridden it? I know the accident happened before this area was actually open/finished so it basically never got used before but I question if anyone breaking into the exclusion zone ever powered it up and turned it on.

Is is the theory that little, invisible gremlins are just constantly pulling things down? 🤔

I read the article if when I open the link, I am not immediately slapped in the face with ads that aren’t blocked by uBlock Origin, an ad block blocker, or a paywall. But I’m not also not reading multiple articles on the same exact topic just because they come from different outlets. 9 times out of 10, they’re exactly the same but with slight variation on verbiage because they all took the same original information from the actual original source and just re-worded it.

They probably continue to fuck them until they are too rotten.

Oh, you meant the other kind of zoo. My bad.

Linear, set-piece story-telling.

Copping out of an obligation?

Dude, not finishing the story and leaving us all on a cliffhanger for seventeen fucking years and then giving this as an excuse is the real cop out.

Looking back, I actually don’t like what Half-Life did to the genre. It didn’t push it forward; it made everything after a linear, set-piece experience with minimal replay value. It might have been different back in the day, but it wasn’t something I had hoped other developers clung to like they did.

DoF is hit or miss depending on the game, for me. I turn it off in games that have rather poor context sensitivity for what it blurs, but I’m okay with it in games where it only applies to, like, ADS. The former I hate because there are so many times I’m trying to get a good look at something, and it constantly blurs what I’m looking at because it’s too close, or too far, or the cross hair isn’t exactly on the right pixel, etc.

Playing MGS5 again recently and it annoys me that I can’t turn DOF off (at least on PS5) because it works the way I dislike.

I’m still waiting for the PS9. Can’t imagine how much nanospore technology is gonna cost.

“I will always remember you… MEMORIES DELETED.”

Is this really how I find out one of them died? Holy shit…

Hey, can you at least share the drugs you’re on so we can all enjoy this?

“You got any food?”

“This is the HR department, if you want food go to the cafeteria.”

“But food is a human resource! 😩”

This is why I just block their fucking “we’re in trouble and need your help” banners. Their income is public knowledge. They don’t actually need help.
