Imho, it’ partly because then they know their kids have reached that stage in their lives where they are stable and have a home as well as are socially cared for and care for their significant other. Puts their minds at ease basically and they can age peacefully. Most parents basically want the best for their children and this is one symptom of it (now I’m prepared to get the replies of all the people with shitty parents.)

Sounds like the synopsis of The Forever Winter. Great setting for that game.

An old meme

Oh, neat. I wasn’t aware of that and never thought about it even in that way. I resorted to gifs if given the chance becuase it was way easier for me to mess up the encoding and other stuff of the video, resulting in way bigger file sizes than necessary. I guess it’s worth investing a bit more time in that lol.

Why would you convert gifs to video to optimize storage space? Shouldn’t it be the other way around?

Who the fuck is Nicole?

It might look dumb

You’re wearing toe socks already so that ship has sailed.

Not really. It depends on the game and also the individual. About 50/50 I suppose. Games like Warframe, Skyrim, Civ or generally competitive games tend to be the ones where you’d find more people with quadruple digits of playtime rather than let’s say more narrowed down single player experiences (without mod support) though there are some cases for those too ofc.

There is no argument to be had.

Folding. It’s the most economic, efficient and way more scalable with thinner sheets of toilet paper as well. People who crumple are on the same level as kids from kindergarten.

So wtf is rolling? You roll it around your entire hand and wipe? That has to be the worst way to do it unless you had explosive diarrhea.

Some people on Lemmy act all high and mighty while considering themselves as “different” from all the regular social media normies owned by corpos. But they’re still the same here as well. Just a different coat of paint.

And I’m not even just referring to this post or even this community or instance. They are all just as retarded and lack any self awareness as much as all the other people online.

Assignment was to find a poem and anon did. Where’s the punchline here?

Fake and gay

You think there would be no social media left if Twitter, Reddit, Facebook & Co. went down? Using Lemmy?

Isn’t Visual Studio Code just a fancy editor and not an IDE?

Damn, the rest of the world really looks at the USA as an example of how not to behave.

They are so socially divided and instead of working together despite the circumstances, families and friends break up because of a vote and people wish death upon each other. Kudos to you to serve as a negative example so others can do better to not end up in a cesspool of blinded polarization and hate, eliminating any chances of actually realizing that you are the same people ought to support each other no matter of what you voted. Your current social downfall will really go down in history books.

Don’t blame evolution for some peoples’ short sightedness

Even if it was, this is just a fucking dumb strawman argument. Like, what does that imply? You’re free to insult one’s ethnicity as long as their people aren’t recognized having their own nation?

Ty for the link. I always thought this meme had a nice ring to it. Dunno why

Where does this originate from? I’ve seen a couple variations of it but have no idea where it came from

Can second this. Not only has it personal and collector value, you actually own it in contrast to the digital age where everything can be taken away by the host service even if you payed for it before. And no, “you only bought the license to stream it not the media content” is only legal rubbish these companies spout to justify the morally questionable bs they push to be the norm.
