Yeah some of those comments are insane… 😲

This is the sort of thing that caught my attention:

STAR CITIZEN is Getting DESTROYED by No Man´s Sky The TRUTH About Star Citizen vs Starfield vs No Man´s Sky No Man’s Sky Just Changed Space Games Forever with Voyagers 5 Ways No Man’s Sky Outshines Star Citizen’s Overpriced Dreams

Weird to jump the gun like that. Should probably have waited a bit till you’re 100% sure. I guess there must be huge pressure to re-gain control of the narrative right now. This has rattled them for sure. Will it lead to less violent and aggressive rhetoric in politics? Sure would be nice…

It’s interesting because you can kind of tell whoever made that 4 panel thing must not have a clue about memes. There’s literally nothing left of the “Gru’s Plan Meme” format. It’s just 4 panels with a punchline. In fact I think it’s literally just borrowing arms from Gru 🤣

Questioned and released. Not involved apparently.

I’m at the “Happy with Windows, thanks” stage.

Wow… there’s already labels for the sides that would fight each other: “Accelerationists” and “Doomers”. I really hope that’s not a road we all end up going down for real. Would make interesting fiction though!

Just wait till someone turns AI worship into a literal religion. I’m kinda surprised it hasn’t already started happening. That would be a heck of a turning point for humanity. Just takes someone to train an AI into thinking it’s a God and then we really are done.

See, this is why I keep struggling when I’m telling someone about something I heard on here and they ask if it was on reddit

“No… it was on erm… well… it’s this other place. It’s not reddit… thank God it’s not reddit but it’s called erm… well it was Mbin and then that shut down and then it was kbin and now I’m on fedia.io but actually it’s lemmy… but it’s part of the fediverse… I think? it’s… yeah it’s like reddit basically but it’s not… anyway this asteroid is going to zip by the earth later today. Here’s a live youtube page that’s tracking it” 🤣

This feels like the sort of thing a scumbag boss would make a giant print of and hang in an office where he underpays everyone and forces them to work a 60 hour week. I have had bosses like this. I once had a boss force everyone in his little sweatshop business (hidden in a basement in the UK) to write him a grovelling letter begging for their job. He demanded this by speakerphone from his office on the other side of the world. He would have loved this cartoon.

What is giant head Tom Hanks doing to Meg Ryan??

Can’t math so would do it entirely visually and I would get it wrong but feel happy that I’d picked a number (in this case 215) and been able to move on 🤣

So… Reeves thinks taxing landlords using NI will make them sell up and release properties into the market which will drive down prices. What is more likely to happen though is that taxing landlords more = landlords immediately charge more rent = fewer people rent = more people buy houses = increased demand drives house prices up = landlords charge even more rent as their property is worth more now = landlords make more money than ever and renters get unbelievably screwed in a rental market that was already bleeding them dry. Reeves makes £2Bn though, so what’s a few more homeless families eh?

The thing about climate change that most governments seem to want more than anything, is for us ordinary people to know that it’s our fault it’s happening, not theirs. Decades of gaslighting just to make sure we all feel the climate is going crazy because we didn’t individually recycle enough.

Maybe the reveal will be that it was made entirely with AI? Shenanigans vibes for sure…

This seems deliberately bad. It kind of reminds me of those games designed to prove a point about Steam or something “HAHA Nobody saw the trick I was playing on them. I made this game in 20 minutes and thousands of people wishlisted it.” That sort of thing? I could be wrong though. Just feels like it’s something along those lines.

Quick update apparently 5 days later, I’ve now played 55 hours of this… Such an addictive game! 😁

“Ukraine’s Zelenskyy”? Phew I’m so glad they specified the country. I thought they were talking about my local postman for a minute. What’s old Barnaby Zelenskyy done now, I wondered.

I would have said Super Mini Mart when I started this thread but then @Kolanaki mentioned Supermarket Simulator and I’ve been playing it ever since (13hrs so far lol). It’s got a few issues out of the box, including some oddly loud chirpy bird sounds but also has such an active nexus mod community that you can pretty much fix anything you want that you don’t like in it (including those damn birds😆). Id’ say give either that or Super Mini Mart a go. The inKonbini prologue demo is great too.

I just bought Supermarket Simulator and played it for 5 hours straight. It’s so addictive!! 😆 That birdsong gets on your nerves after a while but I saw there’s a mod that removes it so I’ll try that tomorrow.
