  • You can hate them. You can, personally, dislike their games. But to pretend like The Last of Us doesn't fall under every definition of a "good game" is just being willfully obtuse.

    Like, I don't personally like racing games, but I'm not going to smugly claim that games like Forza aren't good. I'd have to really like the smell of my own farts to make that claim.

  • The Fediverse is a fucking fantasy world. Some real shit takes from people who live on the fringe who have convinced themselves that everyone thinks and acts like them.

  • How inconvenient to only be able to upgrade on 95% of PC's out there.

  • uhhh

  • Does Okami-Den not count?

  • Why worry about obviously fake bullshit?

  • Just like that pesky "internet" thing people are always talking about.

  • I'm just a random person scrolling through the comments, but it's a strawman fallacy in this instance.

  • I'm still of the VERY strong opinion that Hillary and Kamala didn't lose because they were women, but because they were Hillary and Kamala.

    I don't know, but maybe we shouldn't base our gender litmus test off of literally the most unlikeable women the DNC could have picked.

  • Luminium’s atomic number is 1869

    Even in the realm of fantasy, that is absurdly high. Like, that is insane. That's like putting an artifact in your campaign and claiming it can heat up to 150 zillion kelvin. Even if you ignore how impossible it would be for something like that to exist, physics would have some strong words about how catastrophic that would be for everything around it. And by everything around it, I mean the entire fucking planet and probably a few neighboring ones.

    I'm usually fine with hand waving away pesky things like physics and the laws of thermodynamics when it comes to fictional worlds, but holy shit there is a limit.

  • If we're going by US population (or most western countries population) women are not a minority. There are slightly more women than men, about 98 men per 100 women according to the 2024 census.

    Sure it's a technicality, but you claimed the opposite was a technicality, so I figured it was important to clarify that your technicality is technically false.

  • Isn't like only one of them a cop? Seems a bit farfetched to call it "full on" copaganda.

  • I think the "probably" is that there are more lines above than the conveniently cropped picture would make you think.

  • So Kevin Hart as Phil?

  • Music is free with premium, and I watch videos everywhere

  • And can you play videos on your phone with the screen off?

    How about when you cast to a smart TV? Does your browser based ad-block work then too?

    What do you use for music? If it's Spotify, why? YT premium costs just about as much.

  • This is one of those things that I go against the Lemmy hivemind on. I cut out pretty much every streaming service and sail the high seas for most of my media.But I consider YouTube Premium worth the cost.

    I got grandfathered into it when Google Music shut down and I really haven't felt the need to change anything. YouTube music is better than Spotify. I don't have to constantly play the whack-a-mole game of ad blockers that will inevitably break during a YouTube update. I don't have to rely on finicky software to get videos to play in the background with my phone screen off.

    Look, I get it. All these features used to be offered for free without ads. I think that more than anything is why people are so rabidly against premium, because they feel like they had that stuff stolen from them. But YouTube is a service, not a right. You were never guaranteed those features permanently. The cost of Premium is miniscule compared to the benefits I get from it. I use YouTube a LOT. Weather for how to videos, or ASMR, or background music, or documentaries, or podcasts. I like knowing that no matter where I use it, from my computer to my phone to the random smart TV in a hotel that I cast to, I'm not going to see any ads.

    All this is based on the current services offered at the current price. If and when they start making those services shittier or increase the cost, then I will seek alternatives; but not before.

    EDIT: I love all the many replies going "Yea but you could just use this program combined with this plugin on your locally hosted server. Just use these 3 different pieces of software. Have you tried Squootle? Just use Squootle and SEvR, bro. If you use Squootle you can download the video, recompress it, and play it from any desktop running Windows 7."

  • There's been an odd surge of frog stuff recently. There are a ton of frog based games that have either recently released or will release soon.

    I'm not against it, I like frogs, but it is unusual.

  • Ask Science @lemmy.world

    Why isn't steam from power plants harnessed, condensed, and used to power gravity fed water turbines?

    Vampires are evil because they're incapable of self-reflection.
