Full disclosure: that was me just now until I opened the comments, realized, then took it back. It’s very easy to miss sometimes

Isn’t the way it works now also a debate winner? The blocked user can reply to you and you won’t even know, so you can’t refute whatever they’ve said (and if you’ve blocked them there’s decent odds it isn’t good).
This is what happens when you step on the wrong bug a couple million years ago
In my DnD group, my goblin wizard still holds the honor of being the only party member the DM has used Power Word Kill on.
I’m honored.
we have to go back to our roots
I often see this accomplished with dashed interjections - dashes! can you believe that? - as a way to break up a sentence while still continuing with a single train of thought. But I always support the invention of new punctuation, how long has it been since we got any? We’re well overdue.
Bring a book or some headphones and knock out a podcast. Or drink, whatever works
Baldur’s Gate 3.
I played through one single player save and two multiplayer ones with different groups, enjoyed it all - but only got a little ways into Act 3 on any one save. A combination of middling performance with my older rig and just having sank so much time in I burnt out a little.
Still think it’s a fantastic game, but I don’t know if I’ll ever go back to finish it - I feel like I’d have to start a whole new save.
I will buy the explanation that the game is too old to continue to support when they stop adding new microtransactions every six months or so
Convenience and familiarity, mostly. If you go to a McDonalds you know exactly what you’ll get and you’ll be able to get it pretty quick.
The ancient trials redefined for the modern age
I feel like we scare our DM with this sometimes, when he takes a single player into another room to discuss something private and comes back to an in-character discussion over how easy it would be to poison a major NPC
I am subscribed to over 100 channels, ranging from daily uploads to 1 video every few months. Frankly I don’t need more stuff to watch. When I do want to find something new, it’s either a recommendation from a friend, something I saw on a different social media, or something I searched for myself deliberately.
This change isn’t a good thing, it’s Google trying to pressure more people into giving up more data, but the “threat” of them removing their algorithmically recommended content from my feed is not a threat at all, it’s a bonus if anything.
That’s not democracy though. That’s my only point here is that isn’t related to the concept of democracy at all.
A vote for what, though? What is being decided, and by who?
If you make your own instance, as a one-man thing, then it’s not really democracy at all either. The only way it would be democracy is if you made your own instance and specifically said “all decisions will be made via vote” and you actually had users around to participate in those votes.
Because the fediverse i about democracy.
Isn’t it, like, the opposite? With the main assumption being that you should find an instance that aligns with your interests and values, not find an instance and try to vote for it to become something you like? That is technically “voting with your feet” but instances don’t actually need a large population to stay running.
Yeah I do hate those fuckers. Creepy lil buggers.
Fantastic idea, but did they need to use plastic packaging?
this hit me like a mental flashbang. your wisdom is beyond all of us
