It’s kind of amazing that we get people to collaborate as well as they do. The downside is that we need to appeal to the lowest common denominator of self-interest.

Usually sympathetic to the contrarian perspective but Skibidi Toilet is basically a youtube poop. I don’t see how it can be source material for anything.

There was an excellent text based RPG called Roadwarden that came out the other year. It’s just text and illustrations so thought I’d use this post to mention it.

If small amounts of animation are allowed then WORLD OF HORROR was decent too.

I’d be hesitant to use the money to do anything political in my country. Have watched Musk throw around money during the last presidential election in the states and it’s not a good look.

So that leaves some kind of charity. Charities benefit from economies of scale so it would be better to give more money to a single charity than to split it up amongst many charities. Probably would have to start my own since I don’t trust many of the existing ones (too much money going on executive pay). Pretty sure dysentery is the biggest killer worldwide so would put half into that, then maybe half into libraries in my country. Libraries are a bit of a selfish choice but they have a lot of social utility beyond just having books (by my own logic I should be putting it all into dysentery too).

There are billionaires out there right now who are investing their money in trying to solve the world’s problems. Bill Gates has given away $60 billion dollars of his own money so far through his foundation as of the end of last year.

That money goes further being spent on developing nations as opposed to the USA so people don’t seem to notice. The WHO is trying to eliminate malaria by 2050 and we’ve gone from there being ~1,000,000 deaths per year in 2000 to ~300,000 cases per year in 2024.

I use emacs every day but idk if this post is putting its best foot forward lol

It’s em-dashes and semi-colons too. I use both of those on a regular basis so can empathize with OP.

Sounds awful

Never, I have to work with it. Maybe when I retired I’ll restrict everything to RSS feeds.

It will turn into a “war is hell” story, or go on a large tangent about whether NPC summons have (human) souls.

Fergie from Black Eyed Peas

My friends streamed this on the high seas without realising there was no digital release yet. It turned out to be the Indian cinema edit that cut out all sex and most of the violence. The site they were using had replaced those scenes with Indian gambling ads.

Think they might have to see it again.

Weekly reminder to fellow Lemmy users, “Two wrongs don’t make a right.”

I think there are many people in the world a given person is compatible with. However, those relationships will be right in different ways.

A relationship is wrong if you can’t communicate openly or you feel like they are trampling over your personality.

Yeah this could have padded out the repetitive side content

That’s nice, at least it isn’t being completely plundered.

Poor kids though - recent kid film releases have to be the most creatively bankrupt ever.

If this happened is there any way for Gary’s mod creator (or Valve) to cash in?

I’ve got an ergonomic kneeling chair and it has so far been a lot better than an office chair at home for my posture.
