No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Questions in the event of Russian nuclear missile launch against the West.
71·2 years agoStep 1 - Putin doesn’t like a thing.
Step 2 - Putin says that if you do the thing you’ll get nuked.
Step 3 - Putin’s little cyber puppets flood social media with posts “concerned” about the risks of him launching the mighty nukes. Oh noes!
Step 4 - Putin hopes you believe him.
Step 5 - Nobody believes him.…some times passes…
aaand we’re back to Step 1…
novamdomum@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•Steam Next Fest is back and underway with "hundreds" of playable PC demos
2·2 years agoThe Homeworld 3 demo is impressive and I’m really enjoying Lightyear Frontier as well. Definitely going to buy both when they come out in March. I’ve been hooked on the Homeworld universe since I started playing it in the 90’s (25 years ago! lol I’m old) so it’s been quite a long wait but it looks like BBI have done a great job. I’ve loved them since Hardspace Shipbreaker so I knew this would be something special.

Games@lemmy.world•The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion
3·2 years agoHave been playing and just finished Geodepths. Really nice indie dev first person mining, smelting, resource gathering on an alien planet type of game. Wish it had lasted longer to be honest.

science@lemmy.world•Asexuality Is Finally Breaking Free from Medical Stigma
233·2 years agoThanks, that was actually really interesting and I learnt stuff I didn’t know beforehand. The thing is your comment seemed to trigger quite a few people (me included) because it seemed insensitive. Thankfully you later commented that “For some people (like all the ones in the article) they want it fixed. Others are perfectly happy the way they are, and both are fine and none of anyone else’s business” so you obviously get it. It’s funny how easy it is for people to misunderstand each other in forums like this. This has been a learning experience for me.

science@lemmy.world•Asexuality Is Finally Breaking Free from Medical Stigma
309·2 years agoHey there chief, got any sources for your comment? Like any kind of peer reviewed references to the links between oxytocin and loneliness, romantic relationships and orgasm? Would be interesting to read.

Games@sh.itjust.works•GTA 5 actor goes nuclear on AI company that made a voice chatbot of him: 'I'm not worried about being replaced... I just hate these f**kers'
101·2 years agoYou forget a thousand voice chatbots every day, how about you make sure this is one of them…

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The reasons why you often come up with your best ideas while on a walk or in the shower
36·2 years agoI like to shower in as dark a possible a bathroom. I find it enhances the creativity effect by a huge amount. Also the slight risk of an accidental, life altering fall from not being able to see keeps it spicy!
novamdomum@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•The Crew franchise has a troubled future after The Crew 1 delisting - GameScout
4·2 years agoI recently re-installed The Crew 2 because I wanted to start a new character and start the story again from scratch. Unfortunately I’d forgotten that YOU CAN’T START AGAIN (Jackie Chan Confused Meme). Because of these ridiculous shenanigans of theirs your progress is inextricably tied to your online account. They have literally built a system that limits replayability. Bravo.

Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•Ukraine Update: Russia is not winning the war
24·2 years agoI think they’ve lost about the amount of troops that Napoleon lost in Russia funnily enough.

Technology@kbin.social•Elon Musk Is Crafting A Narrative For The Death Of Twitter
4·2 years agoThere’s something he said in that interview that felt like a hint about why he’s behaving like he doesn’t give a damn anymore.
“For a while there I was like really getting demotivated and losing sleep over the sort of the threat of AI danger and then I finally sort of became fatalistic about it and said well even if I knew annihilation was certain would I choose to be alive at that time or not and I said I probably would have choose to be alive at that time because it’s the most interesting thing. Even if there was nothing I could do about it. So then, you know, then basically sort of a fatalistic resignation help me sleep at night because I was having trouble sleeping at night because of AI danger.”
A billionaire who believes that we’re all probably doomed within the next decade and has accepted it so he can sleep at night.
Maybe explains a lot about his behaviour? If you know this all ends in the next few years, why not just try crazy shit.
I’ve sunk 473 hours into it haha. Haven’t played it recently though… and you’ve just reminded me of it so I’m going to go salvage a Mackerel right now! :)

UK Politics@feddit.uk•Suella Braverman sacked as home secretary
71·2 years agoI’ll always boost/upvote a solid Malcolm Tucker reference :)
Really stunning looking atmospheric game but then I read this in a Steam review posted today by user Sawovsky “By far, the worst thing in this game is infuriatingly outdated traversal mechanics. The game only allows you to climb or descend at very specific places, and it won’t let you traverse anywhere else, despite being obvious that our character can do so. It’s hard to describe just how annoying this is.” I think I’ll wait to see if others echo this sentiment before going for it…

Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•Russia has lost over 300,000 troops in Ukraine: Ukrainian General Staff
20·2 years agoWhy do they keep going? Sunk cost fallacy? It’s mind boggling…

Technology@lemmy.world•AI Generated QR Codes with Stable Diffusion and ControlNet
91·2 years agoCan I hazard a guess that you’re an ex redditor? People try to be nicer to each other here. I’m a reddit refugee myself and it’s sometimes hard to change habits but this place is nice and it’s worth it. To me this whole migration kerfuffle seems like a rare opportunity to be more thoughful in my interactions with people online. So far it’s making for a much nicer experience.

Technology@kbin.social•Meta and Ray-Ban unveil smart glasses that function as a camera, enabling users to initiate live streams to Facebook or Instagram
6·2 years agoSoon there won’t be an inch of the planet that isn’t being live streamed, whether people are aware of it or not. I really wish Mark had been hugged more as a child.
