100% agree that we should use the term with caution and precision. That said, Israel is committing a genocide.

me being told to grow up by another lemmy user is literally 1984 guys

Good thing you can have the right economic politics at the same time as being queer. Young people identifying as LGBT does nothing to detract from their other left-wing views.

Genuinely hard to tell if a joke sometimes

I feel like your last sentence should inspire some introspection for you haha

Certainly if the developers of those games have the time and resources to invest into it, they can make an easy mode. Not every studio does though. For games intended to be difficult though, they should be balanced around a difficult normal mode, and that doesn’t necessarily mean everyone can beat it.

According to this article, about 40% of men and 60% of women identify as feminist. That means only about 60% of feminists are women, at least in the States.

I like when games are difficult. I don’t think every game needs to be so easy every gamer can beat it.

Why? saving money for the company, as always

I ride a bike to work every day. I’m never sweaty. The infrastructure to cycle exists so I won’t get run over by cars.

I think having some actual alone time in the morning can be good. Doomscrolling doesn’t provide that though.

He made the games worse, but that doesn’t mean he made them less profitable. Those are sadly distinct goals. The CEO does not have an incentive to make good art.

bolognese a lazy recipe? takes me like 3 hours sheesh

If you get it, purge and update your cache. It still works.

No worries mate

How does this law favor fast fashion? it seems the opposite

The measurement for temperatures you experience really does not matter outside of what you’re used to, do you think non-Americans get confused about how cold 6°C or 23°C is?

In fairness you spend a lot of your childhood licking everything you come across. I bet your tongue has touched many more of those objects than you can remember.

They’re adding more mobs than just the mob vote mobs though. The next update has at least another hostile mob with a unique structure and new blocks and mechanics. And they don’t want to overcrowd the game with just a lot of mobs because they want to support the game for 50 years. If they add twenty mobs a year the game is going to be oversaturated very quickly. They want to add mobs that tie into the game’s systems in unique ways instead of just churning out mobs.

Accusing Mojang of greed is so fucking weird, Java Edition - the one that Mojang develops - is a one-time purchase with non-conditional lifetime updates. I bought the game for €5, 13 years ago(!) and they’re still updating it.
